Hi ladies,
I'm back. Gosh, can't believe its been so long.
Work has gotten extremely busy with a new, huge project that will take more than a year. Job security for another year! I dodged a trip to Chicago for three days. I was able to "attend" by sitting in a conference room and listening via phone and watching via webcast.
I've been sick. I've had an upper respiratory infection type of thing going on now for maybe three weeks. I'm still not 100% and I've been to the doc and she said to ride it out. Rather annoying though. I lost my voice for a few days and hasn't been the same since.
We just got back from vacation. DH and I took my mom out to Arizona to see her sister. Her youngest sister lives in Sierra Vista. We stayed there a couple of days and then drove up to the Sedona area. That area is so gorgeous. DH and I took a day to drive on up to the Grand Canyon. I haven't been there since I was a kid. OMG, it is just breathtaking. Then we were back to Sierra Vista for another couple of days before driving home. That was a long two-day drive.
I've got a couple of days off before going back to work. Looks like we're going to have good weather so I want to finish up the summer work and be done with a few projects.
One of the things I want to get back to and that is the fitness center. I plan on going each of these two days. And back to healthier eating. I have to admit that our food wasn't all that good. Not only not healthy, but just plain not good. We spent a lot of money on eating evening meals for them to be mediocre. I think we will rethink that for our next trip. There were microwaves in each room that we stayed in. We discussed how much happier we would have been with frozen dinners. Not like we couldn't have found a grocery store at each of the towns we stayed at. We have both gotten so dissatisfied with eating out; sure makes traveling a challenge. But, I think we shall learn from this.
We are supposed to go to Columbus Ohio next week for the Quarter Horse Congress (horse shows). However, that is a 12 hour drive each way. I'm not too sure either of us is excited about getting back into the truck for that kind of drive. We may cancel and just enjoy the time at home. But we'll wait until the weekend to decide.
Another thing I have to get back to is pilates. My body is so tight and inflexible, it is pretty pathetic. The drive was very hard on my lower back.
I better get this posted and me up to working on my list of things to do.
to all!
