I actually have a full week home….no work…no travel. Just a pure week at home to catch up on life! It doesn’t happen very often so when it does, it’s quite exciting! So I thought I’d take you all on a little “Day in the Life” journey with me!
7AM
Any good day of morning starts with a yummy breakfast and catching up on my favorite TV shows. I made extra-burnt toast with peanut butter and banana slices. I am LOVING Sam’s Club Natural Peanut Butter. I’m also rewatching the LOST series right now so kicked back with an episode while eating breakfast and drinking my coffee. The rest of the early morning hours were spent responding to work emails and catching up on expense reports.
9AM
After getting ready for the day, I headed out to check out a thrift store in my area that I’ve been wanting to try. Texas Thrift has multiple stores across Texas, and they have other parts of their chain in Florida. I’ve typically been pretty impressed by my finds at their stores, however this one let me down a little. I didn’t find anything fantastic and it was more pricey than other thrift stores I have been to, but I walked away with a few good items nonetheless.
11AM
I stopped by Buc-ee’s for some fuel for me car and fuel for me! I picked up my second cup of coffee for the morning and a Celsius, because they are way cheaper at Bus-ee’s than they are anywhere else! I met up with my mom and siblings after to to complete some paperwork we needed to do as a family.
12PM
My brother, sister, and I met up with our Papa for lunch at a small hole-in-the-wall burger joint in Greenville Texas called Terry’s. They are honestly some of the best burgers! We spent a good amount of time catching up before I decided I better get a start on my hour drive home.
2:30PM
I arrived home and had several things to catch up on, including getting the mail, emails, some planning for my other small business, and working out. I have been using the Down Dog apps for my workouts as they have apps for HIIT, Yoga, and Barre. I did short HIIT workout so that I had time to prep dinner before Aaron got some for work.
4:30PM
I grilled some easy marinated chicken for Aaron’s dinner and heated up a Lentil Tortilla Soup I made for my dinner. Recipe will be on the blog for Foodie Friday! It’s so easy in the crockpot and was SO delicious! I. honestly can’t wait to have more for dinner tonight. I topped dinner off with a leftover CRUMBL cookie!
6:00PM
We do early dinners in this house so that we have plenty of time for evening walks and that’s what we spent most of the evening doing after dinner! And that it pretty much it for my non-travel day!
Question of the Day:
What is something exciting that happened in your day today?
