Sometime this week, when I was scheduling a post for this blog, I came across an old feature of mine: Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow. The last time I posted one of these was in 2015, so I figured today was as good as any to bring this back into the rotation!
Yesterday, I…
- Woke up early to work out, which was a great way to start my day. I haven’t been to the gym in a long time. Instead, I’ve been doing a short 30-minute walk around my apartment and then some strength-training exercises. I’m definitely contemplating canceling my gym membership because I really only use it for spin classes, but only two classes work with my schedule and if I don’t remember to sign up the minute signups become available, I’m SOL. They’re at popular times (Friday morning and Saturday morning) and have only 20 bikes available, so it’s hard to get in!
- Worked from home, which meant I got to have some quality time with my fur-brother, Chip. He keeps me on my toes, but man if he doesn’t put me in the best mood. He’s just so sweet and fun!
- Had dinner with my mom! We went to a yummy Italian restaurant and I filled up on bread and salad, oops. Just means I have leftovers for dinner tonight!
Today, I…
- Was not planning on having a bagel (my work generously gets bagels for everyone on Fridays), but alas, I don’t think I can abstain. I need those carbs!
- Have an appointment at a service center to get my car looked at. I haven’t had any sort of multi-point inspection in probably 30,000 miles, which is not a good thing considering my car’s an old lady that just hit 110,000 miles. I am just crossing my fingers and toes she’s not in need of any costly repairs!
- Will probably take a nap, depending on how long my car takes to be inspected. I am probably not going to schedule any repair work today, so hopefully, it won’t take up too much of my afternoon. I need my Friday afternoon nap!
Tomorrow, I…
- Have a hair appointment! It won’t be anything fancy, just going to get the color touched up and a trim. So boring, when I compare it to my last two hair appointments where I chopped off all my hair and went blonde, and then went back to brown.
- Am going to get a pedicure with my mom! She’s treating me to the pedicure, as part of thanking me for watching Chip while she was on vacation, so I’m thrilled about that. What a day of pampering I have ahead of me! (Man, should I schedule a massage for the morning!? Ha.)
- Will get to see my brother and older nephew for game night! It’s been a fairly long time since I’ve seen either of them, and we are more than overdue for a game night. Let’s hope it doesn’t end in tears like it did the last time all four of us got together. Whew. Emotions are high when you’re nine! (Or 30. Let’s be real here. Emotions are always high for me, ha.)
Tell me something you did yesterday, did today, and are doing tomorrow!
Yesterday I took the kids to Incredibles 2 and it was quite fun.
Today I managed to not stop for Starbucks this morning and had my decaf coffee and hard boiled eggs for breakfast. Hopefully I can keep up staying healthy today (it hasn’t been pretty).
Tomorrow starts Spencer’s baseball tournament so I get no weekend to myself.
Have fun at game night! That’s one of my favorite kind of nights! Now that Paul goes to bed early we are back to having a monthly card night with another couple that loves cards and games as much as we do!
Yesterday I felt like a zombie because Paul was up every 1-1.5 hours the night before. Zzzzz. Today we are going to try to go to lunch with a friend and her baby who is 5 weeks older than Paul. Hopefully they are both awake at the same time around lunch so we can make this work. Tomorrow I am looking forward to having Phil around. Paul is in a challenging stage as he mostly takes 30 minute naps so I feel like i spend all day putting him down for naps (which is not easy!). So I love having Phil around to help. I might go to the mall and get a few things for my return to work. I’ve lost some of the baby weight but not all so I need to get some new work clothes so I have things to wear that fit well and that I feel good in (my body image is NOT good right now between extra weight and my terrible complexion).
Oh, fun feature! I love it!
Girl, eat that bagel! I LOVE free food at work — it’s the best! Hahaha. People at work are savages when there’s food in the break room.
Last year we canceled our gym memberships at Planet Fitness, then in January of this year, we signed up for a family plan at the Y which is over $80 a month. Decided to cancel that last week because we weren’t using it nearly enough to justify the cost. I would go maybe twice a week, and hubby hadn’t been going at all, and that’s A LOT of money. I’m going to walk and try home work outs for right now, then after the baby arrives, sign up at another gym that isn’t quite so expensive.
Yesterday I ran four miles, today my mother drove me crazy and tomorrow I’m going to work at my office to do some planning for upcoming events.
I love that you’re so close with your mom and every time you mention that you hung out with her, I get a tiny bit jealous (but in a good way) that I can’t just pop over and see my mom for a hug.
Yesterday I had a long day at work (11 hours), today I am getting off 3 hours early (hooray!) and tomorrow is a holiday. What else can I ask for? 🙂
