Taking the weekend off

Welcome to the weekend. It seems like it has been a long time coming. Not sure why, but this week felt like it went on forever. I guess because a lot seemed to happen. Let me recap.

The week started off promising, or so I thought. For those of you who know me, and if you are reading this I assume that you do, you know that I have worked my ass off over the past 12 weeks trying to be the Biggest Loser. Unfortunately I am not. I still managed to drop 39 pounds in that time and am very happy for that. It started out being about the money and turned into what will hopefully be a lifestyle. I have regained my love of running and don't plan on stopping any time soon.

After that the week just continued along the same path as always. Work, sleep, work, repeat. There were also all of the chauffeur duties that have come up with the kids being in activities with school, which is a great thing, just a time killer. As the week started to draw to a close, we were informed at work that we would be forced to take Monday night off as well as Sunday night. Not a big shock, but it sucks to be forced to take days off. So I decided not to bitch too much about this one and just enjoy an extra long weekend. This just means that next week will be much more leisurely than most. Works for me!

Yesterday was my wife's birthday, so we spent the day just doing whatever she wanted. We headed over to the Oxmoor area and did some shopping. We both are in need of new clothes for our upcoming Disney Land and Sea vacation in October and now is a great time to buy since all of the stores are getting all of there winter stuff out. Yes it is 90 degrees today and I just said winter. Anyway there are deals to be had. We also ate at a Red Robin restaurant. I had seen the commercials, but did not know where one was. Now I know. The food was pretty good but kinda pricey for burgers. But now I can say I have eaten there. Not sure if I will be back, but who knows.

Not sure what the rest of the weekend will hold. All I know is that it will be relaxing. After this weekend it will be back to running everyday. I think that I am ready for the Everest 5k, but my goal is to do the Kentucky Derby Festival Mini Marathon next year. So that is a whole other amount of training.

So until next time.....

Yeti Out!
