to a relaxing evening and weekend with my two boys.<\/p>\n<p>This morning I woke up before my alarm went off to the sounds of some serious thunder and flashes of intense lightening.\u00a0 Oh my!\u00a0 I thought it probably would be best if I didn&#8217;t run in that.\u00a0 I did get up and get Rocky taken care of because it wasn&#8217;t raining yet.\u00a0 If I can avoid taking him out in a monsoon, I will gladly choose that option always.<\/p>\n<p>He came back inside just as the major downpour started.\u00a0 After a brief discussion of options, returning to bed sounded the most appealing so that&#8217;s what we did.\u00a0 And I slept till after 9am.\u00a0 Holy cow!\u00a0 I&#8217;m bummed that I didn&#8217;t get a run in this morning but I also realize that my bod needed the rest after such an intense week.\u00a0 I was hungry when I came downstairs but due to the lateness of the morning only wanted something light to eat.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter

fantastic.\u00a0 After breakfast I putzed around and also worked on yesterday&#8217;s dinner post.\u00a0 Eventually I got up to clean the house.\u00a0 I was feeling so lazy this morning!\u00a0 Must have been the extra sleeps.<\/p>\n<p>11:30am came and went and a package we were waiting on did not arrive.\u00a0 It was coming via FedEx and around here FedEx sticks to a pretty strict schedule.\u00a0 11:30am is the delivery time.\u00a0 The other delivery time is around 1pm.\u00a0 I decided to hold out that long to see if our package would arrive.\u00a0 I was bouncing up and down excited and have been looking forward to it for a while now.<\/p>\n<p>After cleaning the house, I made us some lunch.<\/p>\n<p><a

they were tasty.\u00a0 A bit heavy though, seemed like perhaps a lot of butter and some cream going on.\u00a0 A few small bites were plenty for me.<\/p>\n<p>After lunch I could finally hit the shower and get dressed for the day.\u00a0 I ran Rocks out for a quickie walk.\u00a0 It was ridiculous outside.\u00a0 Like walking into a steam room, very hot\/humid and steamy outside.\u00a0
