Much ado about nothing…

…and that is what happens on a rest day.

Have I mentioned that I love my job? Well I do…kind of and sometimes. I know many others feel this way, but I love the potential, I love where I know I am going with it. I’m not there yet but one day. I get to play with kids, often with heartbreaking stories, and I want to bring them all home with me. But I can’t. So all I can do and try to help them in the small amount of time we get each week. And I hope it makes a difference.

I spent the day in a training workshop. I love these things. But between the workshop and the commute I really didn’t get a chance to run today. I had thought about running there on my lunch break but that didn’t work out. I may or may not have gotten up to late to pack my running/workout stuff and heaven forbid I do it the night before. No sir-ee…not ME. I’m a procrastinator. Oh well, another rest day will do the legs well. Remember? I am convinced. I have learned my lesson. But tomorrow it is back to the pool early then an easy jog after work. Now that it is staying lighter later and for whatever other reasons, it feels easier to take LB to the track at 5 PM or 6 PM. So I will see how that works out for us.

And today the Hubs got his present for my birthday…wait, how does that workout? I don’t know…but whatever. He got a new toy…So when I got home we had to take it for a spin. And here is YET another picture proof of me being a BAD Ma’ama-jamma!!

Actually don’t worry, we only went on the culd-a-sac in our street and not fast at all. Any other time I am all over the helmet thing.

And tonight as I was reading LB’s bedtime story, “My Lucky Day”, about a clever little pig who outsmarts all the big bad animals in his neighborhood,  I was amused when I saw this:

Can you see what caught my eye???

Thanks for all the snack attack ideas yesterday!! I am going to try each and every one of them (except pistachios!! Sorry Mallory! =] But I think I just threw up in my mouth. HA! ) over the next month!!  The ones that require baking or mixing or skill of any kind I will tell you right now, up front…I probably will not do it justice. Just saying. I’ll try. Otherwise I’ll definitely let you all know how it goes!!
