Hi Bloggies:

It is amazing to me how quickly a week away from the office can fly by! I always like to have an idea of how I am going to spend my vacation week, and this week I was lucky enough to sort of stick with my “schedule”. Sunday through Wednesday: Camping. Thursday: Cooking for my friends and visiting with them and their brand new daughter. Friday: cleaning the house, my room, doing laundry and running errands.

Today is Friday, which I find really hard to believe. But I woke up early (for me) this morning, at 7:30 AM. This is amazingly early for me especially since I am on vacation. I love catching up on my sleep during my days off. I have been very productive so far today. Now I am heading out the door to run a few errands, and I am going to try to go for a super low key jog. It will be my first time running / jogging since June. The very thought scares me to death. But you’ve got to start somewhere.

The morning was getting away and soon enough I realized that I had not eaten breakfast yet. I stopped just long enough to prepare a bowl of Quaker Oat Squares, fresh blueberries and soy milk. A great bowl of cereal:

I also whipped up a homemade latte with 1% milk, coffee and a dash of cinnamon:

I enjoyed the coffee while I was cleaning my room and bathroom. Fun times!

Ok, I am heading out the door with a few errands to run and then I’m going to hit the running path… I’ll be back in a bit. Happy Friday, everyone! 😀
