Sunday
This weekend was mostly about productivity at home.  I pruned a few bushes, filled in a few holes in the back yard (created when the tree company took down 4 trees this summer), cooked (a yummy turkey chili with cornbread), did laundry, and scrubbed down the master bath.  I'm amazed at how relaxed I am after a three day weekend even though it was mostly spent either running errands, grocery shopping, doing yard work, cleaning house, oh yea, and studying for a mid-term exam.  Life is good.  The nice weather sure helps.

Saturday
I jogged around the lake (1.25 miles).  It felt good to back at the jogging.  I took most of the week off.  I was overly tired.  We had two evening events last week.  Monday night's wasn't mine but I ended up working the Friday before on it (funny how that happens).  Then Thursday was my event (which went very well).  I'm guessing that is why I was tired.  I'm also aware that I haven't been taking my vitamins...so I'm planning on taking them to work with me (so I can take them with lunch).  I spent last week sleeping as late as possible (6:30am) to be at work by 8:00am.  This week it is back to getting up at 5:00am to get a workout in before work. 

Mowed the lawn (and fertilized it)...it isn't exactly equivant to a 3 mile run...but I count everything I can.  I'm also counting vacuuming!

I had dinner with some friends on Saturday night.  As I was enjoying my second glass of wine (they live walking distance from me), I realized it has been while since I've enjoyed a evening out.  I slept the best I've slept in a month, not because of the alcohol; but having relaxed so much.  The good thing is that next Thursday is book club, so it will be another nice evening out. 

Friday
I took a comp day on Friday.  It was a great day to catch up on grocery shopping, a costco run, buying dog food, etc.  It is funny how I always end up doing my errands on a day off.  I think Thursday night would be a better time to do errands.
