<\/p>\nYesterday was the last official day of vacation and I’m sad.\u00a0 We had a great time and I would love for us to have more time like that.\u00a0 Of course we didn’t get to do everything we were hoping to do, mainly stuff around the house, but we did do a lot and had fun. That’s the important part!<\/p>\n
My desktop computer seems to be functional again and thank goodness for my husband because otherwise I would have no idea what to do or how to go about doing it.\u00a0 He some how managed to get everything working and running and now I don’t have to limp along with grandpa any more.\u00a0 I’ll try to keep this in mind the next time my sound decides to randomly disappear or when my computer refuses to play videos.<\/p>\n
Anyway on to yesterday!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I got up and ran probably 3 miles.\u00a0 It wasn’t until the end of my run that my knee started bothering me again.\u00a0 Since I didn’t do anything on Saturday, I was hoping it would go away.\u00a0 Not so much. Meh.\u00a0 So I cut my run short and headed home.\u00a0 The upside is that there is no lingering pain nor is there any pain once I stop running. And since it started later in my run yesterday, I’m also viewing that as a positive.<\/p>\n
I had a small glass of CS<\/abbr> and then took Rocky out for a walk.\u00a0 Back home in comfy clothes!\u00a0 I took grandpa laptop into the TV room and I sat down with a small breakfast.<\/p>\n Some coffee and a bowl of yogurt + granola.<\/p>\n I haven’t had that combo for a while and it was delish!\u00a0 I worked on the laptop for a bit and then it was time for grandpa’s nap so I tucked him in and sat back down on the couch with Ina.\u00a0 Because her new season was starting Food TV was showing a lot more Ina than I was interested in so I changed channels.\u00a0 For some reason I don’t find her Back to Basics concept that great (but I love love love Giada’s new Giada at Home series so much better!).\u00a0 I swapped Ina for Reno 911! because that’s the kind of humor I have.\u00a0 Don’t hate.\u00a0 They were having some sort of mini marathon because they were going to show Reno 911!: The Movie later which I saw and it’s not good.\u00a0 The show, however, kills me and I laugh like a two dollar hooker who just got 10 bucks whenever I watch it.<\/p>\n I was watching that show when King OHC himself got up and blessed us with his presence.\u00a0 I told him what I was watching and tried to catch him up without laughing and it didn’t work. I almost snarfed my second cup of coffee.\u00a0 While he watched with me, his belly started playing a rumba so I headed into the kitchen to make some breakfast.<\/p>\n We were out of maple syrup and that meant pancakes or waffles were not options.\u00a0 That’s what I really wanted so I was slightly cranky pants about that.\u00a0 I got over it and made something yummy anyway.<\/p>\n Scrambled eggs with sauteed red onion, green pepper, and spinach.\u00a0 Some salsa added in at the end for extra kick and I topped my portion with chili garlic hot sauce.<\/p>\n Whole Wheat English muffin with a touch of butter.<\/p>\n Smoothie!<\/p>\n This one was actually green!\u00a0 And it was delish!\u00a0 I cleared my plate and cleaned up the kitchen.\u00a0 Then I finally took a shower and got dressed.\u00a0 Scott and I headed out to Meijer to “pick up a few things” which turned into me full-on shopping.\u00a0 They were having a major sale on produce which is something that they rarely do.\u00a0 Oh sure a few things might be on sale but yesterday tons of things were on sale!<\/p>\n I got peaches and nectarines for $1 a pound.\u00a0 Cantaloupes 2 for $3 when usually it’s 2 for $5.\u00a0 A gigantic watermelon twice as large as my delicate flower sized head for slightly over $4 and all kinds of other wonderful things.\u00a0 Our total savings was $40 which might not seem like a lot but for what we bought, it totally is.<\/p>\n It must have been a while since I’ve been to Meijer because everything was changed around.\u00a0 I know they do this so it takes you longer to shop and possibly make you buy more. Which doesn’t work on me, I end up just getting a bit irritated.\u00a0 This time it did make me go slower and what I noticed was that more of their produce is now labeled as being from the U.S. whereas before a lot of things were from Mexcio.\u00a0 That’s part of the reason why I was looking for an alternative.\u00a0 And they are starting to get in more organic things which is a bonus!<\/p>\n We shopped and shopped and by the time we got home it was 4:30pm. Teriyaki salmon that I baked in the oven at 400 for about 7 minutes or so.<\/p>\n![\"Coffee,](\"http:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/ohc-07-12-09_breakfast-300x225.jpg\" "\\"Coffee,")

<\/p>\n\u00a0 I put the groceries away and started dinner prep.\u00a0 Then I fed Rocks and called my mom for a quick chat.\u00a0 Then it was time to eat!<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
