Weekend Wrap Up

09.28.08

The weekend was good at the G’s….  Worked on Saturday then hit the gym for quality time on the elliptical, then some push-ups and lots of stretching.   Yeah I busted out 30 girl style, I can barely lift my arms today and once I do get them up it’s painful to get them back down.  I think next time I’ll just do 5 or so.  Rode next to BJ for the 6 mile run following his 117 mile bike and hard swim in the a.m. with Craig.  He looked strong but needed to be pushed - I’m glad I was there for him, it was fun.  Plus I hadn’t seem him in a while so I just talked his ear off which I think made the time pass quickly.  Last night, we indulged in our favorite Gumkowski original, buffalo tempe pizza accompanied by a few seasonal beers and a salad.  Another good bout of self care before bed. Sunday started with a casual morning of listening to music and drinking coffee.  We followed this up with a 38 mile ride out east, so great to spend QT with my man, I miss him so much.   We are just so busy but when we do spend time together it’s simply the only place on earth I want to be.  Lunch, some work, long walk with the kids, delicious steak on the grill with roasted potatoes, grilled red peppers and salad.  Then we hopped on our bikes about 8pm and headed up for ice cream.  I got a 1 scoop sundae of which I ate all the whipped cream…thank god for BJ, he’s a sure thing for finishing my ice cream anytime.  Back home to bed to ice the foot, which is doing better, still feel like I need to train through this phase, listening to what’s going on each day.  A quick date with my biofreeze and it’s lights out for this chickie.
