Rough Night

While yesterday was a very productive day, last night wasn't. We got a huge storm around dinnertime which left us without power in the middle of dinner. Thank goodness for having candles on hand and a camping lantern. We ended up leaving the house because it was getting hot without the air conditioner running. We rode around the area to survey the damage and stopped by a drug store to pick up a few things. It was sort of nice but it was so great to get home.

When the hubby and boys got home late yesterday afternoon, I still hadn't done my workout. Hubby wanted me to keep him company outside while he was grilling the pork chops (yes! I talked him into grilling them!) and I was going to. However, I started to feel a bit guilty about just standing around outside when I hadn't done my workout. Long story short, I came in the house and did 15 minutes of Gold's Gym Cardio. I didn't burn as many calories as I wanted to but I managed to accomplish 2 things; my workout and spending time with hubby while cooking our dinner.

I'm waiting for the weather to finally straighten itself out so I can start taking full advantage of the pool! This time of year is always a bit unstable, to say the least, because of the high humidity, which causes a high number of storms.

I've taken my Talapia out of the freezer so I can cook it up for dinner tonight. I still have to find a good recipe and I'll post it when I find it. I've got my turkey bacon thawing so I can have it, egg whites, and a slice of toast for breakfast. Hubby and the boys are getting ready to leave again today (they might go fishing to stock the freezer...yay!) so I'll have the house to myself.

Because I did all of the housework yesterday, all that I have to do today is workout, plan my meals, and enjoy the day. It's already pretty warm outside so I'm hoping to get in some swimming this afternoon.

Okay, time for me to search the web to find the best, most delicious recipe for Talapia, cook breakfast, and get started with my workout. Be sure to get up and move today...you'll feel better, I promise!
