I'm baaaaack!

Yep, I am. Not as in "I'm back on the wagon because I strayed so far" because I DIDN'T but as in "I'm back to my normal life and my house and my laptop."

I left for Atlanta on Friday and came back yesterday (Tuesday). I had such a great time! And it didn't involve food. Isn't that funny to say? Usually, when I travel some of the fun is all the different food and the eclectic city specific fare. My sister and I had a "date night" and we did go out for my favorite Atlanta veggie pizza and then ice cream but that was it. Oh wow. The ice cream. It was the best I've ever had ever ever in my life. Salted caramel and it was an explosion of flavor in my mouth. Anyway, that was my fun night. I think it helps that Ashley & Ben lead a healthy lifestyle so there just wasn't a bunch of tempting stuff laying around. Or I probably would have indulged.

The only thing I really compromised was the work out. I didn't take my DVDs and I didn't run/walk. Her babies (three under the age of four) wake up around 6:00 and my kids stay up until 9 or 10, especially on vacation. Could I have carved out time? YES, of course. Did I? No. I did run like crazy juggling six kids and all their needs.

I have NO GROCERIES in the house this morning. I'm making my menu and grocery list and hitting the stores today. We all have sore throats and snotty noses so I'll probably just walk 2 hilly miles today instead of a full sweat workout.
