I can’t wait to get some sleep tonight! I pushed myself today with my exercise and did 3.5 miles in an hour burning around 560 calories. Brad asked me this morning If we could see about going swimming! I was surprised but I WILL NOT turn down an opportunity to go swimming because I LOVE it! Well, needless to say the clouds rolled in and we got a small rain shower but It was already a bit into the afternoon when that happened so when we saw the rain we decided not to but THEN about maybe an hour later, It was back with sun and no rain haha. Figures.. ah well.
I told Brad I didn’t just want to sit around because I’m stuck in the house all the time and want to get OUT when he’s off work. Our chinchilla badly needed some food so we decided to go to one of the main cities we visit maybe twice a month. It’s about 35-40 minutes away. We loaded up and headed out. I always have a good time just going places with Brad and Katie. We didn’t really do much except stop by Petsmart to look at the animals and get the chinchilla food. Next, we headed off to the mall to wander for a good long while then decided we were both hungry. Either Red Lobster of the Chinese Buffet! Chinese won! Wahooooo! We got to the place and It was PACKED, not ONE parking space. Brad drove around the parking lot then came back and thankfully a handful of people were leaving so we got a spot! Katie was pretty good the time we were there, I was just shoveling her bread and cheese in her mouth lol. I tried to make the best decisions on food there I could. I still needed a lot of protein for the day so I got shrimp, salmon, 1 piece of different chicken such as honey chicken, general taos chicken, some broccelli and then a variety of fruit and I got water for a drink! I was so STUFFED by the time we left, lol.
The sky was so pretty on the way home and It doesn’t get completely dark now until around 8:40pm. Ahhh, how I love summer! When we came home to our door, the neighbors next to us were on the porch and you could tell they were either drunk or high. They commented on how cute Katie was and one of the ladies said that If we ever needed a babysitter, they’d be glad to keep her! HAAAAA, in your dreams woman.
My butt is so sore from exericse haha. I felt good today after my exercise and that’s another thing that keeps me motivated to keep going with my exercise is how GOOD I feel afterwards!!! Today after treadmill time I was dripping sweat and dancing along to my music, lol but I felt wonderful!!! Anyhow, I’m gonna go relax with hubby and see what I can find to watch! Have a great nite!
