Weekend Wrap Up! (Running & Puzzles)

Happy Monday!
I hope you had a great weekend!
Here is what we were up to...

Friday was a big day because I made myself microwave popcorn for the first time in several years! In case you didn't know this, for about 8 months, this is what I ate every day:

Breakfast: bowl of Cheerios

Lunch: bag of broccoli

After school snack: bag of popcorn

Dinner: 2 fat free grilled cheese sandwiches on lite bread

Bedtime snack: bag of popcorn

DANGGGGGGGGGGGGG that girl had PROBLEMS!

This was my pre-dinner, playin' cards snack. Of course I ate the whole bag.

Go big or go home.

I always feel bad for the popcorn that could have been.

We ate a very healthy dinner while we watched Friends. I had half a bagel with cheese and a big 'ol salad. Paul had spaghetti. This is how our after dinner conversation went:


Paul: We're out of ice cream.
Me: We can go get Frosty's.
Paul: Okay!
Me: I'm still hungry.
Paul: Good, me too. We can get nuggets while we're there as well.
Me: I love you.

That's me shoving my face with nuggets as we drove home.

On Saturday morning, I saved a bird! I was blogging in the sun room and heard something hit our bay window. I thought it was just ice, but 5 minutes later I went over to the window to look. There was a tiny feather sticking out of the snow and I saw it move. Holy crap! A bird had hit the window, fell into the snow, and was stuck! I ran outside, not caring about getting my pajamas wet and dug the little bird out. He was stunned and couldn't fly, so I put him on the ground by some bushes where there wasn't any snow. He tried to fly but didn't get very far. I hoped he wasn't too injured and would get his mojo back. I forced myself not to go back outside and check on him because there was nothing I could do at that point.

I did a 10 mile run that afternoon, making it my second weekend in a row of double digit running! My legs started to feel a little tight at the end but nothing too earth shattering. I was proud of my pace, considering I wasn't trying to push it. I was just trying to run what felt comfortable.

We went to visit my Grandma that afternoon and then had dinner at a new restaurant in my hometown. The food was yummy but the service was meh. It's not that they were rude, they just didn't seem to know what they were doing.

On the way home, we bought a couple puzzles at Dollar General. My Grandma was working on some puzzles at her place and Paul and I were helping her. It really got us in the mood to do puzzles! So now, we play cards, watch Jeopardy, and do puzzles. We officially have all the hobbies of old people!

Only 100 pieces. The was our warm up.

It was so warm out! We're talkin' low 40s! I had a wonderful run.

We spent most of the afternoon doing a puzzles. I mean, we straight up sat down for over 3 hours and banged out this 500 piece puzzle. We were really proud of ourselves!

Sorry this is a short one. We just didn't do a whole lot worth mentioning! But it was still a great weekend.

 

Do you do puzzles?
Get a good run in this weekend?
