A few highlights from the weekend!

(This sounds like a super lame weekend but I actually feel very fulfilled by it, and mostly stayed off my phone, so yay!)

Friday

  • Running feeling normal again.
  • Reading outside on the hammock, with the cats.
  • My TacoCat Creations Etsy order arriving and the cats going nuts for the toys.
  • Lasagna for dinner.
  • Starting a puzzle – my first one during the pandemic.

Saturday

  • Finishing the book I started on Friday.
  • Going on a walk with Steven.
  • Exploring a lakefront property with Steven and finding a secret beach.
  • Grilling lunch.
  • Working on the puzzle and watching part of the new Little Women.
  • Getting basil from our neighbor and chatting with her.
  • Making pesto.
  • FaceTime with Gina, Steve, and Luca.

Sunday

  • A successful “long” run! (i.e. my longest run of the week. I am so happy to be running again!)
  • Meeting our neighbor’s daughter and granddaughter. (It was the daughter who sent me that very nice letter.)
  • Sharing some of the pesto pasta with our neighbor.
  • Seeing Lorena and getting a manicure.
  • Pasta Alfredo for dinner. (Pasta three nights in a row! Woot!)
  • Apollo destroying his cat house then approaching it minutes later acting all apprehensive about the state it was in. Gah, Apollo was making us laugh so hard, like, did he really not remember he destroyed it?!

Lowlights

  • Feeling old AF. Friday night/Saturday morning my shoulder hurt from doing puzzles. I woke up Sunday morning with a sore neck, either from doing puzzles or sleeping wrong. Ha.
  • Driving in a rainstorm with low visibility on Sunday. Scary!
