I have gratitude today for...

* Megan allowing me to use one of her gym visits. I went this morning and did a workout on my own using everything I've learned from working out with Dave. After my workout I did about 15 minutes of yoga and stretching. I was there for an hour & a half and although I didn't want to "waste" time outside, I'm so glad I went!

When I first started working out with Dave, he tried to drive home the importance of working the legs, even though they aren't really the area I am "targeting". I thought this was pretty crazy to see on the board when I did one of these workouts on my own for the first time!

* walking to the library after the gym. I got a few People magazines for this weekend, some new CD's (Grace Potter, FUN, Mraz & a yoga cd), Michael Pollen's "In Defense of Food" and Daphne Oz's "Relish". That library is the best!

* Primos for lunch--it was a nice treat! I had the chicken cutlet with broccoli rabe and roasted red peppers. Yum!

* the awesome warm weather we had for most of the day. I was able to lay out on the deck after lunch in a bathing suit and read the People magazines. It started to get cloudy and chilly around 4ish.

* reading the first 75 pages or so of Daphne Oz's book "Relish". Reading the prologue made me feel like she is actually my friend---she was easy to relate to and everything she said resonated with me. 

* dinner at Circle Tavern with Andy, Chris, Henry & Mrs. Roth. I went with something different (for me) and got the chicken pot pie. It was awesome!

I have gratitude today for...

* getting all of the new PPL & PECO customers entered for Joe today. I entered about 80 and it took forever but I know it's been a big help. I had Grey's Anatomy on while I worked so at least there was something in the background. 

* remembering my first DMB show at Madison Square Garden. 17 years ago tonight...that is just crazy!! 

* talking with Gary today about my position with Park Power. We have lots of exciting things going on and I'm really happy to be a part of it all. He also agreed to help me out with something and I really appreciated it. 

* pizza from Via Mare for dinner. It's great to be back in Avalon for the weekend!

I have gratitude today for...

* a great early morning workout with Dave. 

* watching last night's episode of Nashville while I entered customers to help out. Since El is away Mia has had to do them all and it's soooo time consuming. I was going cross-eyed by the time I finished but I was happy to help. 

* talking a walk around lunch time to the Chinese place on Fayette St. to pick up lunch. It was nice to get outside---this weather has been amazing! I stopped in a few places to drop off Park Power info and made an appointment for Monday too.

* a great Mexican dinner. I made fresh guacamole and pico de gallo. Andy & I watched the first three episodes of this season's HIMYM. I thought they were pretty good (with the standard cheesiness thrown in). 

I have gratitude today for...

*  lunch with Darlene at Whole Foods. We sat on the rooftop deck and had tacos from the taco truck. It was nice to catch up, I miss sharing an office with her!

* being able to go to my annual exam. Not that I love going to the doctor, especially the OB/GYN but I am thankful for my health insurance (through Andy's company) and the ability to go every year for a checkup. There are millions of women that do not have this option. 

* going for a walk with Andy after he got home from work. We did about 3 miles up the hill and back. 

* watching the first Flyers game of the season for a bit and then watching the X Factor upstairs. 

* chatting with Debbie on Gchat for a bit this evening. 

I have gratitude today for...

* texting with Bethany today and catching up with her. I feel horrible we haven't seen each other or really talked all that much. I'm hoping she is up for getting together soon. 

* briefly talking to Dan from Leadbox (through email) today. It was nice to touch base. 

* talking with Mastercard about the charges on my card from when I thought the auto-payments had been set up. They credited me and confirmed they are now set up correctly. 

* going to yoga nidra tonight at Aim High. It was so relaxing with the lights off and just candles lit. Some people fell asleep during the relaxation part, (they were even snoring, which of course made me want to poke my eyes out!) but I didn't. I actually find it very difficult to "stop thinking" but I do the best I can to just let the thoughts come in and out without really focusing on them.
