On my last blog, I talked about reconnecting on my walks. Well, as happens with technology, disconnects happen and it did over the weekend. First off, I have to tell you the people I admire most are those who perform their workouts no matter what life throws them on any given day. NO MATTER WHAT! I’m not quite there yet. Ok, in fact,…I get an F for the weekend. I threw a dinner party Saturday night and here was my schedule. I left work early Friday to do my grocery shopping and cooked everything I could cook ahead of time on Friday night. Somehow I came up with a “new” list of things to pick up the following day (resulting in about three hours out and around town), and began the last of the cooking about 3 p.m. I actually threw on my workout clothes and shoes for my errands hoping I would be prompted to head for the trails on my arrival at home. Let me tell you, it took half an hour just to unload the car and well… The final outcome for all my hard work was baked trout, fresh green beans, red potatoes, and a butternut squash sauté along with various appetizers—also a beautiful table set for eight. Cooking is one of my passions and I was showing my parents what a grand cook their daughter was. I know you are saying, “fine, we get that, but what about Sunday?” STAYED IN MY PAJAMAS ALL DAY. Now, don’t tell me you’ve never done that. Today is Monday, and I’m back on track and thankful we’ve got weekends ahead with nothing big like that scheduled. Just took a walk on a beautiful snow-covered campus and will hit the treadmill or park when I leave here shortly.
By the way, I was connecting over the weekend but it was with my family and a couple of friends. We had a great time, and in fact, it was quite special. I still admire each and every one of you, though, who NO MATTER WHAT, gives your body that push it needs and wants every day. I’m working towards that…Susan
