Busy Bees

Nobody ever likes Monday after a sort-of long weekend. Friday afternoon was super nice.... The weather was perfect for our little trip to Nebraska City. We walked around and took pictures and ate apple pie, we even toured the Morton Mansion....just like I did on an elementary school field trip way back in the day. Then we had dinner outside at the Lied Lodge and even though there were a lot of flies, the food was excellent and we got a free wine tasting before dinner! The party ended Saturday morning... when I got up at 6:45 so I could get to the gym and back and get some stuff done around the house before getting my hair done at 11:30. Then all I did was run errands and feel like I was going crazy (traffic was AWFUL!) until it was time for Audrey's b-day party. All I will say is the food was good and I drank waaaaay too much wine. I got home around 1 am, fell asleep, woke up and went to the gym at 9:20. This was all voluntary. I don't know what's wrong with me! I felt fine until I realized how dehydrated I must have been when I was sucking down a lot of water during Body Pump. It felt so good to be there though (I never made it on Thursday, it was a bad day and I still haven't been able to watch Ugly Betty or the first hour of Grey's). Then we started painting the kitchen...orange. I love it. It is so sunshiney and happy. Hopefully we can finish it tonight, but first we have to have a birthday dinner with my Grandma (and the rest of the family). So no gym tonight, hopefully tomorrow after the chiropractor since Don has to work anyway. Things are getting better at the gym, thanks to Pump, so I'm actually motivated to go again!

Wow, that's dedication -- 6:45 AM on a Saturday! Good to hear you had a nice trip. Unlike my weekend, which was boring and long but not at all relaxing.
Can't wait to see you next weekend. Let us know what the plan is.
