Weekend recap

I'm not even sure why I do weekend recaps anymore. I almost never do anything exciting and this weekend was no exception.



I finished reading The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and started and finished The Girl Who Played with Fire. I can't even remember if I did anything else on Friday which probably means I did nothing.

Saturday I wanted to get my errands out of the way before I started working. So I went for a run and did a quick workout before heading over to My Fit Foods to pick up a few meals. I did really well this weekend, food-wise. No soda, lots of water and no processed food. For the rest of the day I alternated between reading and working. And was quite productive.

Sunday was more of the same. I got up and ran and did the same workout again. Then I ran over to Gap and was more than a little disappointed with what I heard was supposed to be an amazing sale. But I did get three sweaters for a pretty good deal.

My next stop was AT&T. Oh AT&T. You are really getting on my nerves. It's been five or six weeks and I still haven't been able to replace my iPhone since it was stolen right out of my hand. Yes, I should have had insurance, but I didn't. Last week customer service told me that I should go into the store, but the new iPhone on a new line, put that line to sleep and put the new phone on my old line and this would only cost me an additional $9.99 a month. I was more than a little skeptical since no one had been able to offer me this deal before. But I went in anyway. The salesman listened to my story, checked my account and said well, yes you could add a line and the cost for that line would be $9.99/month, but you're whole plan would also have to change and your overall voice plan would go up $30/month. FAIL.

After a quick stop at Target, I spent the rest of the day working and reading again. So. much. fun. Oh well, at least it's a three-day week.

Weekend

I love weekends. I wish they were longer...doesn't everybody? It was quite the lazy weekend too, being that it was so hot out. I ran Sunday...kind of. It was so hot, I hadn't had enough water, or food for that matter, so I cut my run short. And then we opted to eat out instead of cooking. I really need to cook this week. And maybe not drink. Except I have half a bottle of red left over from last night's Bachelorette finale fiesta with E.  Monday. Oh Monday. Cancelled my run once again when the car told me it was 102 outside. Can't wait to be able to run in the mornings. Last night was the Bachelorette season finale so E came over for dinner and some wine. I now love sweet potatoes and I may have had a little too much to drink. And then decided it was a good time to update my iOS on my iphone. I'm still trying to get my phone back to where it should be. It made me do a complete restore, then I couldn't restore from a current backup and when I was f...

Rock n Roll Dallas recap

We arrived in late Dallas Friday afternoon. When we had left Houston, it was a balmy 87 and four hours later when we stepped out of the car in Dallas is was 53! Talk about a temperature drop. Saturday we went over to expo to get registered and pick up our bibs. The expo was pretty cool, lots to look at, but it took a hot minute to figure out how to get out of there which maybe was the point. By the time we went to dinner on Saturday everybody was a little concerned about the weather for Sunday's race.  They were saying it was supposed to be about 41 at the start with winds at 25-30 miles per hour and gusting to 45mph! E and A wanted to wear long sleeves while K was still talking about running in a singlet. I was on the fence. I didn't have any throw away clothes with me so if I wore a long sleeve top I would have to keep it on the whole time. In the end I stuck with my normal short sleeves and gloves. Sleep Saturday night was fitful and by the time the alarm went off I w...

Foodie recap

I love to cook. And I love to cook for other people. I may not stray too far on my menu, ok people have said I cook way too much salmon, but at least I mix up the recipes some times? All right, so I probably eat salmon 3-5 nights a week and when I'm not eating salmon I'm eating Mexican. This is Texas. But I should branch out every once in a while. I need some new dishes. Who has suggestions? Everyone once in a while, we make filets...but that can get expensive so it's usually only on special occasions - like holidays...or if it goes on sale. I've made scallops before, so good, but also expensive. I also want to stay relatively healthy. It's ok to go off the reservation and eat what I want once in a while, but I should not be doing it as much as I have been lately. Sooo...here's what I've been eating lately... Chicken fajitas I feel like there must be a veggie missing from this plate... Chicken fajitas take two Happy Mother...
