A few notes from the weekend!

Thursday Highlight | My hairstylist so enthusiastically commenting on my weight loss. It made me feel good for all the hard work I’ve done!

Other Thursday Happenings | my Shitterfly magnet order arriving • going to Trader Joe’s after my haircut – I hadn’t been to one in ages! 

Thursday Lowlight | getting my ultrasound EOB in the mail (I requested it, and knew it would be costly, but, UGH)

Friday Highlight | Laughing at dinner with Steven.

Ha, same outfit as Thursday!

I ended up writing a whole long post about this, but basically, I was so out of it at dinner that I couldn’t remember if I like corn or flour tortillas and Steven teasing me about it was hilarious.

Other Friday Happenings | being surprised by an Ali on the Run show episode for my morning walk (one had come out the day before and I wasn’t expecting another so soon, yay!) • calling EAP and getting a therapist recommendation being a total breeze (that therapist no longer works with EAP so I left a message with another) • a productive working lunch with Steven • receiving a Starbucks gift card from Shelley • mailing a package to a friend in Australia • picking up my bike from the shop • reading after work and letting the cats out on the balcony • running with Steven • being shoe twins with Steven during our run • going out for Mexican food for dinner • putting up my new Shitterfly magnets • snuggling with Ned in bed • reading and falling asleep before 10:00

Saturday Highlight | Getting the garden beds filled!

It’s so nice to have this done and have the huge pile of soil out of our driveway!

Other Saturday Happenings | walking and listening to a new-to-me podcast (The Drop, still deciding if I like it) • getting a postcard in the mail from Caitlin from her California trip • making a chai when I got back • working on this post • taking our red twig dogwoods out of the basement and laughing at how they filled the exercise room • getting a lot done on the garden beds • the garden center being able to deliver more soil • soaking in a bath after working my body so hard • going to the movie to see Sisu  (what a wild movie! I enjoyed it but had to look away for some parts) • playing with the cats when we got home • finishing a book – The Silent Bride

Sunday Highlight | Going on my first bike ride of the year!

I felt so sleepy when I woke up Sunday am but when I saw it was in the low 60s with barely any wind, I had to get up and ride!

Other Sunday Happenings | getting the two (that’s it! ahh!) rocks I painted this week resined • listening to The Drop while picking up sticks • prepping the produce • getting started on some Fake Meats marketing work • grilling and filming a Fake Meats video • eating said grilled food (BURGUR!!!!) • more Fake Meats marketing work • a run with Steven (our first time running 8 minutes at a time!) • finishing The Family after dinner • starting a new book and going to bed early

Weekend Lowlight | not having much downtime at home – we sure got a lot done though, and went out twice!
