Was it Really Monday?

I am so stinking confused about the day of the week.

Yesterday DID NOT feel like a Monday -- to any of the 4 of us on our city adventure and we kept messing it up.  Why is there traffic (rush hour - duh)?  Valet only parking on weekend -- we waited and waited until we realized it was Monday.  No happy hour -- that's strange.  Place closed -- why?  Men in suits -- who goes out in a suit on the weekend?

We high-5ed at how cool we were in the cool section of downtown on a MONDAY (after doing our old person library tour).  Then we needed instructions on how to eat the table bread, needed the "bench-thing" traded for regular chairs at our table, had to leave the cool beer bar because we didn't actually like the beer.

Old can't hide.  It was lurking all the time.

The Carter Library was as interesting as you think it is -- which is not very, but it's nicely done and relatively small.  Jimmy Carter is a fascinating man -- his life story was very inspiring, but after about an hour, I was finished.

Oval Office and hubby

Now for Tuesday -- pouring rain all morning, nothing on the calendar.  It's a grocery shopping, chore doing day.  Both are needed (rain and food in the refrigerator!!).

Since I haven't talked about my food/eating in 5 minutes -- let's chat.  I had a simple thought yesterday and it won't leave me.  If I eat well, EVERYTHING else is better.

Aches and pains -- so many lately.
Energy.
Pants fit.
Sleep better.
Mood better.
Workouts better.
Productivity better (different than energy -- more like apathetic vs curious)

It is that simple and yet it's so HARD.  I need to go back to eating regular dinners again.  I've slipped into the habit of a snacking dinner and that doesn't serve me at all.  Funny enough, I have a tough time eating this way in the summer.  Cooler weather helps a lot (probably why I had this thought yesterday).

Nighttime structure is a super power that fixes so much if I can tap into it a little tiny bit.

I'm doing some actual cooking this week.  Real dinners cooked in real time eaten at a real table.  If only this cool weather would stay -- today is the last day.

I need to keep reminding myself it's Tuesday.  Hair day tomorrow -- can't miss that :)

Later gators.
