Today has been a very relaxing day.
I love days when I am not rushing around. I feel like I do enough rushing during the work week. Weekends are best when they are slow and easy.
My husband was able to sneak in a long bike ride between the rain storms and I was able to enjoy the break between storms too.
My day started with these oats cooking on the stove:
I mixed in bananas, raisins, cinnamon, flax seed and topped with some more bananas and organic jelly. We are out of almond butter! YIKES!
Then Pepsi and I headed to the dog park:
She loves the park.
I think know she prefers sniffing around by herself-but she tolerated these two:
On our way home we spotted these pretty poppies:
After I dropped Pepsi off, I took off on my run.
I think I finally have mastered using the runmeter app on my iPhone.
It is an application that basically works like a Garmin GPS. It took some getting used to on previous runs. It has its quirks and you must learn how to use it while listening to your ipod and answering calls. I have finally figured it out though! And I LOVE it! This is one of the reasons why I wanted the iPhone so badly. I wanted to be able to bring ONE thing on a run instead of a separate ipod, separate Garmin, and separate phone. Now I have it all in one place!
Check it out:
This is where I headed today:
And this is what the loop looks like on the runmeter:
Pretty cool!
Got home and had a shake-out of spinach so it is NOT green:
Went to Target. Then got a pedicure-finally.
And then came home and had lunch with my husband:
Now we are watching True Blood. Is anyone else addicted to this show?
Soon we will be heading out to meet up with friends. Looking forward to some good wine, good conversation, and good food.
Have a great night yourself!
If you have a chance, stop by Berni’s blog and wish her well. She is running her first half marathon tomorrow! Good luck Berni-I know you will do great……
oh my gosh that runmeter app is cool. was it a pain to hold while you ran? What a nice chill day. Mine was chaotic because I rushed to get my whole weekend stuff done today so tomorrow we can chill. we are getting a couples massage at a local spa/winery. it was a gift from my dad at christmas. CAN’T WAIT.
I did the same thing on my blog to go give B some good vibes. I think I said the same exact thing. CRACKS ME UP.
Have fun with friends. xoxo
a little bit of a pain to carry but not too bad!
have a great massage today…..
Oh my goodness…Pepsi is adorable!!
I used to have a black lab named Monty, so I’ll always have a special soft soft for black labs. 
I love that she’s just letting the other dogs check her out, while she minds her own business. Such a cutie!
The iphone application is awesome!! I could really get into that.
I love oats and I love them all jazzed up like yours are!
Mmmm I could eat a pickle right now after seeing your lunch!
How was the movie??
bananas are such an oatmeal necessity! I LOVE True Blood!
i love your dog’s name!!! adorable.
Great iphone app! Does it tell you the calories burned too?
yes you can set it up to do calories…..just have not gotten around to it!
Great, thank you!
Congrats on your run! I really need to invest in a garmin or something to keep track of mileage / speed etc. Perhaps I need to drop some hints to the hubby for an early birthday pressie
my husband has an app for his bike riding…..you may be interested in that too
