Day 3 – 27 Left!

22 May

I am writing this a day later, because we had such a fantastic, beautiful day yesterday as a family.  The day started by getting up at normal time but leaving the house rather quickly so we could go to the Fayetteville Farmer’s Market in downtown!  Before leaving, I had a banana and some soy yogurt.  Since I only had $3, I decided that I would just get what I hadn’t gotten yet at the grocery store.  I got $1.50 worth of zucchini, which are all so beautiful, and I’m sure they will be delicious stuffed for dinner tonight.  After the Farmer’s Market, we went to Rude Awakening to get some coffee and an apple croissant.  Sydney ate some of the apple croissant, and I finished it off.  Hubs decided he was starving, so we ventured off to The Fresh Cafe, and then walked around downtown for a while.

The real fun began when we went to The Climbing Place to indoor rock climb.  We got all geared up, and of course I sported my Five Fingers, because I thought they would be excellent for gripping, and you know what?!  I was right!  I climbed several walls, and got quite the workout!  We tried to encourage Sydney to climb, too, and she did, but wasn’t so enthused by the harness, ropes and climbing the actual walls.  She loved the cube, so I climbed that with her some too.  Hubs mostly bouldered, because he is awesome like that.  Of course we didn’t bring a camera, and you will all learn that is a normal occurrence for me/us to do!

We left, because of a very cranky and emotional preschooler, and went to lunch at Jason’s Deli.  I had a huge salad from the salad bar, complete with mixed greens, spinach, red bell peppers, feta cheese, nut and dried fruit blend, mushrooms, olives, ranch dressing, and some other odds and ends.  Delicious!  I had green tea with my meal, since that is full of antioxidants and is a great way to help the flow of the digestive system.

Naptime was next for the family, but I toodled around on my computer, and when they got up, we played around on the computer with the Photo Booth feature.

After goofing off for quite a while, we decided to go to dinner with a great friend of ours at Monterrey.  I had Camarones Cancun, which was shrimp with onions, zucchini, pineapple, rice, avocado, pico de gallo and lettuce.  Delicious all mixed together.

After dinner, we came home, got Sydney to bed, and then I nearly killed myself doing Jillian Michaels’ Yoga Meltdown.  Yeah, yoga is something I enjoy at a slow pace.  And today, my back is far more achy than when I do yoga at the gym.  The hubs and I watched a movie following the workout, and just relaxed.
