Scott came home from India on Monday and we were all so excited. He's been slowly getting into the new routine and getting over jet lag. I think we all need a nice quiet weekend at home. I had a lot of writing to get done which was good. It was also a bit stressful since I had a hard time getting people to respond to my requests for images and information.
I got in 5 workouts this week - three boot camp classes, a barre3 class with one of my favorite instructors and a really good yoga class. My leg and hip are still bothering me so I'm working on strength and trying to loosen up the muscles. The yoga class this morning was hard on my leg but afterwards felt so wonderful since we really stretched our muscles.
I also signed up for the Fall Transformation Program with Sync and I'm so excited. I need a reboot. I have the exercise portion down but need to get back to the heavy veggie lifestyle. Sometimes a reboot is just something one needs.
The lunch excitement continues with most of my new ideas being rejected. I did however turn Molly onto tortilla roll-ups so one more fun thing to add to the rotation. She's been really into finishing her leftover lunch when she gets home so I wonder if they say something at lunch about finishing your food at home.
I'm also back on my meal prep plan and loving it. I plan to write about how I do it soon. Anyone have anything they want to hear about meal prep and how to do it?
This week was spent getting used to the routine. The excitement of getting up early for school is slowly wearing off for the kids. I like having a bit more time to get things done but do not really enjoy the 7:00 a.m. to 7:40 a.m rush. I feel a bit like a Drill Sargent. "SHOES!" COAT!" "GO! GO! GO!"
I also spent last weekend painting the girl's room. When they heard I was going to paint the kitchen, they insisted on jumping the line and having me paint their room purple. Their room hadn't been painted since before Molly was born, over 6 years ago so it was time. It turned out really cute but it was an exhausting feat!
There wasn't really much in the "Other Goings On" arena this week as I had a lot of work to get done. We did however meet with our architect and start working on our new basement design. We plan to start work in January and I'm super excited! It is going to be a lot of work but it is going to be so worth it. All I'm excited that it is officially FALL!
