Weekend Wrap Up

Good Monday morning, Blog-land! Before we go on with the regularly scheduled Weekend Wrap Up, I want to let you know that Meg Go Run is on Facebook! You can follow me there. I'm not sure what that actually means, but I will figure it out soon enough. But as for now, please go "like" my page! 

Onto the Wrap Up... Can I just tell you how excited I am for this week to be over? I know we're supposed to enjoy the moment, but teaching at an elementary school the week before Christmas is... challenging. I have a lot coming up this week (as I am sure most people do!), but once Friday rolls around I am freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee for 12 days! Now, to put one foot in front of the other and take one challenge at a time.

This past weekend was a much needed chance to get some rest and relaxation, as well as finish up everything I need to finish before Christmas. Here's what I was up to...

Friday was a magical day at work. I took the 4th grade students to see Central Pennsylvania Youth Ballet's performance of  George Balanchine's The Nutcracker. I will be writing more about it this week, but for now I will tell you that it is was one of the most beautiful performances I have ever had the pleasure of seeing! We go each year, and I swear it gets better every time.

After work, I had my last physical therapy appointment! No, I didn't graduate. I quit!

When I got home, Paul and I went to the grocery store to get some things. Bad idea. I swear, EVERY. SINGLE. PERSON. IN. THE. WORLD. WAS. AT. GIANT. It was the worst experience of my life! Did I ever tell you I hate People? Because I do. I hate people.

Saturday was a wonderful snowy day. I wrote about it yesterday, so I won't bore you with the details again! You can read about how we spent our "snow day" here.

On Sunday I managed to find some roads that were plowed and not icy. I ran 7 miles and it felt great. It wasn't even that cold out. All my cold weather gear was in the wash, so my clothing choices were limited...

On top I look normal...

...but the base layer was the leggings I wore for Footloose!

My grey pants were dragging through the snow so I had to tuck them into my socks.

So fashionable!

After my run, I did all my PT stretches and exercises (see, I told you I would do them at home!). Then I went to meet my friend Jen for a yummy lunch at Panera Bread. I had black bean soup, a baguette, and half a smoked turkey sandwich. I know that's a lot of carbs, but I just ran for almost an hour and I had to refuel!

Then we headed to the Harrisburg Jewish Community Center to see the musical The Wedding Singer. Our friend Randy directed it. It was such a fun show! It was the third time I saw it (I helped out last week during their tech week) and I kept laughing at new things I never noticed the first two times.

When I got home, I launched an epic Christmas Present Wrapping Wine Drinking extravaganza! Just me, a glass of wine, and lots of presents! I love wrapping...

We finished the evening watching the Survivor Finale. I am typing this blog post before we actually watch it though. I am hoping Tyson does not win, but I have a feeling he will...

I hope you had a great weekend!

Are you done wrapping all your Christmas presents?

Have you ever seen The Wedding Singer performed on stage?

What's your favorite thing to get at Panera?
