Up even extra, extra early today. We have a 10 hour car ride and apparently 5pm dinner reservations (made by others who have a 2 hour drive). That got my panties in a bunch yesterday, but I'm trying to stay calm. It will be tight, but we'll do our best to make the reservation.
Anyway ...
Such an exciting weekend. So proud of be the mom of a college graduate! And my youngest scored another 4.0 this semester. Proud mama bear moments. Love these kids.
This is the last "trip" for us for a little while. The break will feel good. We can "nest" at home and get some routine back next month.
War and Peace is coming on the drive (I'm lucky to have no problem reading in the car). I'm cruising ... page 162 lol. It's not a bad book, not a good book and I can only read for about 15 min at a time. Maybe my reading muscle will grow as I continue on. One of the best-books-ever-written is not synonymous with the-most-enjoyable-book-ever-written ... at least for me ... so far. There are SO MANY characters, it's hard to feel committed yet. Stay tuned ...
Workout today will probably be a hodge-podge of whatever-I-feel-like. Just something to get the body moving and awake. Mix of run and tabata.
My lunch and snack are all packed and ready for the car ride. I plan to keep this weekend pretty clean eating, but allowing a few glasses of wine over the next 2 nights. The big "red zone" will be the drive home on Sunday and Sunday night. I have some food frozen for when we get home - I know I will mentally want to relax ... AND there is a freezer FULL of cookies. I need to be careful. And I'm sure my bathroom situation will be all messed up so I'll be bloated and feeling yucky. It helps to predict and expect it. Stay tuned (again) ...
Okay ... better run. Making sure to find my HAPPY this weekend and roll with the punches (and early dinner lol). Later gators.
