Friday's Random Thoughts

It is friday and here are the random thoughts running around in my head

-I have the best husband ever! Today he decided to take the day off to have a "daddy day" with Izzy while i am at work. How sweet is that!! And of course Izzy is very excited that she gets to stay home with daddy instead of going to Nana's house. I am sure a long bike ride is in their future this morning now that daddy got a new tube for his tire.

-Tomorrow we are goign to Izzy's first Michigan State football game. I am super excited because before the game we are getting to gether with a bunch of people I went to high school/college with that I have not seen in ALOT of years and thanks to facebook we have reconnected. I can't wait to see them and meet their kids!

-I have not been so successful with my workouts this week...i made it to the gym zero times!!! Partly because I had the worst cramps ever two days this week and partly because I just didn't feel like it. I did go to the zoo yesterday and do tons of walking, does that count? Probably not. I dont' know why i am having such a hard time getting back at it!!!!

-I have found a new favorite breakfast. I had kept hearing the benefits of greek yogurt, and how good it is...so i decided to try it. The first one i tried was some brand i can't remember and it was vanilla flavored....it was HORRIBLE, i could hardly choke it down even mixed with bannana...it was so sour tasting, yuck, i don't care how much protein is in it i could not eat it...well a bunk of people told me to try Okios honey flavor, so i tried it and it actually is pretty good especially mixed wiht fresh blueberries and a little dry cereal for crunch. It is filling, and I get my morning protein and fiber from the the fruit/cereal. I will be buying it again. It is certainly different that "normal" yogurt, different texture and a little more sour taste. It is certainly growing on me.

-I can't believe that summer is essentially over! School starts next week and I really can't believe it!!! While I love fall weather in Michigan, I am not ready for it yet, we hardly had a summer...snow will just be around the corner

-Speaking of snow, apparently Izzy is ready for snow, the other day she found the winter boots and gloves a friend has given us that their daughter outgrew, put them on walking through the house and outside to "play in the snow"...winter should be interesting

-Our neighborhood is starting a book club. I have never been part of a book club before and do love to read so I think I am goign to check it out. They already assigned the first book -Patty Janes, house of curl....i picked it up at the library yesterday. So far i dont' know if i can make the first meeting because Dh will be out of town but I will see if my parents want to come for dinner or somethign and then can put her to bed while i go to the meeting....so we will see how it goes. I am at least going to try it for the first book. I hope there is wine...is that terrible?

-DH is going to be gone a lot this month, he has a business trip to chicago next week for 3 days I think and then will be up north all weekend and then is leaving the following Wednesday until Sat night to do training in Philly. I am not looking forward to being a single parent.....not to mention I know Izzy is going to miss her daddy, that is the first thign she says in teh morning when i go get her if he has to work early, is "where's daddy" Should be interesting. Hopefully it goes by quick.

Well i suppose I should do some work now seeing that i have been here almost an hour and done nothing work related.

Have a great holiday weekend!! I know I will!!!
