Mountain lions, oh my!

Uncategorized 1 Comment »

Went to the Elfin Forrest and was met with a warning about mountain lions… that they are hungry and have been spotted since the wild fires. Eek! It told us what to do in case of an attack, and stressed not to let children walk alone. I pretty much was an overprotective freak after that and so it wasn’t as much fun. Better safe than sorry. Other than that, today was a good day! Well, other than the hubby being a GRUMP! Ugh.

Did really well with the eating today, but no real exercise. I have GOT to get this in check…

Elfin Forrest

You know what I love about Southern California? I am from the great plains, and there is no variety. A hiking trail is just like a maze with bugs. Here, a hiking trail can be a mountain that goes into the desert, or a mountain that takes you to the ocean… it’s just so awesome! I decided, much to the hubby’s delight (haha, did I mention they are 5 and 3?!) that we are taking the boys on a hike today. We’ve been cooped up too long. So, I do some research to find a family hike and I find the Elfin Forrest. What a cool name! I’ll letcha know how it goes.

I am ROCKING the eating. Really, I was just needing a trip to the grocery store so I had some more healthy options. I actually ate all of my points yesterday without going over. You know how hard that is on a day all I do is sit at home?! Woot! This was my first weekend off from work and the hubbs had to work all weekend, meaning he’s off tomorrow and Tuesday. Boo!

I was trying to think yesterday about the reasons that I eat junk. I can’t come up with anything. Maybe boredom, or feeling depressed? I know that woorking and being active helps me to eat better and say no to the sweets, so does it work like that because it is a distraction or because I am feeling better about myself? I need to think more about that. I was reading someone’s blog yesterday, though I can’t remember whose, and she was talking about the same thing and recommended a book. I suppose I shall go try to find her blog and order that book, along with a hiking trail guide. I think the boys are going to LOVE today!!!

Ciao!
