7 Things

First Saturday off in aLONG time! We were supposed to be in Vermont skiing for the day, but weather looked a bit scary (ice) for our drive home so we decided to stay in instead. We were THEN going to go ski here, but slept in until 8am?!?! I stayed up way too late watching the Ladies Figure Skating Championships the night before πŸ˜…So we started our weekend with the BEST breakfast from 27 North -> local friends you HAVE to try it! The β€˜Green Monstah’ was amazing.

We then went to the Local Bookie (used bookstore) & I got 3 books for $11! Doing some light reading in my β€œfree” time πŸ€“

I also found scrubs at a shoe store (Alex is looking for shoes for the Wedding) in my school uniform color (royal blue) for $13! So happy. We also did some exploring at a’new to us’ Conservation Area

I managed an 8 mile run later in the afternoon and gained 800’ in elevation- first time this hitting this much in a LONG time (remember when I used to gain something like 1,300’ in 5 miles?!? πŸ˜…)

Epsom salt baths, yogi toes, & hot nuun is still the best way to recover

I had to split up my run on Sunday because I slept in a bit too long / had to be to work at 7! So, 3 miles in the dark followed by 3 miles in the afternoon while also wearing CAPRIS! πŸ™ŒπŸ» I really miss β€˜winter’, but also really enjoy having bare legs in January.

I came back from my run to hear about Kobe Bryant’s passing. That really hit home for me. I definitely looked up to him and respected all that he was able to accomplish and those he was able to help/inspire off the court. Such a tragic story for all those lives lost in the crash.

Also. This β€˜plant based’ protein cookie was dangerously good. Glad I don’t make getting one of these a daily habit! They’re expensive ($3!?!) 😹
