OK here is the breakdown for yesterday…
The morning started like any other and my wife amd I went for a 3 mile jog through the neighborhoods. It was enough of a workout since we did the 6 mile jog earlier in the week. Work was on the easy side and I had some shopping to do for a dinner party with family I have not seen in 30 years. It was a great reunion. I met my family’s daughters for the first time and also had the pleasure of meeting a local young couple as well. All this running around to get ready for the party meant I did not do a PM workout. That was bad for me, but hey this is real life and I had not seen them in 30 years! I had to skip one for them.
Dinner was pleasure for me to make. I used to cook in the Army and don’t often get the chance to cook for more than 2-4 people. Cooking for 10 had me thinking of my Army days. The meal was going to be steak and chicken kebobs on the grill but there was a threat for rain so I pan cooked the meal instead. I also had chopped red peppers, onions and mushrooms pan grilled and we served this with a mixed greens salad. We also had fruit salad, rainbow sherbert, hummus and pita chips. Besides this we had lemonade and 5 bottles of wine. 5 bottles for ten people where 2 of the ten are not drinkers! We were laughing hooting and hollering. We shared stories and memmories. It is a night to remember and cherrish. We made some plans to visit them in Texas next year since we will be going that way to climb Enchanted Rock with some online friends.
Now for the bad… I only had one workout for the day. I ate well but did have more quantity and calories than I normally would. I also had 3 beers during the day and about a bottle of wine myself throughout the night.
