My first full week of summer vacation...and it was grand. I'm going to put tomorrow (Saturday) in a separate post because I have an adventure with Summer planned. : )
Sunday:
|
Grocery shopping |
|
Lunch was pretty. The cucumbers have turkey and vegetarian cheese between them. |
|
Mom brought this from Bulgaria. |
|
So on Sunday, I finally read the card my kids gave me. |
|
I didn't cry, but it was close. |
|
Maliha was so quiet all semester. I had no idea she was having so much fun...I'm glad. |
Monday:
|
New workout plan for June. |
|
On Monday, I visited the Roseville Library. |
|
...and I started studying. :) |
|
Saw this in the boys section at Target and an XL might *almost* fit...except that I have breasts. |
|
My new toy. I loved my little Zip, but this one has a heart rate monitor!!! |
|
Took my new shoes out for a walk. |
|
Mom said I look like Pippi Longstocking. |
Tuesday:
|
My first run in several weeks...fueled by Gu. |
|
Later in the day, I had to brake for this adorable quail family. They were darling. |
|
I went to Folsom Library on Tuesday. |
|
In front of the library is this war memorial. The huge stone was my dad's work. The rest was added later. I loved the simplicity of the old stone, but still find the update nice, too. |
|
After the library, I went to the zoo. : ) |
|
This is why I love and forever support this zoo. |
|
Most of the animals are native wildlife but the zoo has a few residents, like these macaques, that were confiscated pets. |
|
Bobcat |
|
Coyote. |
|
Golden Eagles |
|
Hard to see, but that's a peacock, a peahen, and several peachicks. |
|
Oh, deer. It was warm out. |
|
Peahen and peachicks. |
|
How...nice. |
|
Black Bear |
|
There's a mountain lion napping up there. |
|
People can be awful. |
|
More adventures in clumsy braiding. |
Wednesday:
|
Wednesday was National Running Day, so I showed off my 5K bibs. |
|
Got good and sweaty at the gym. |
|
This is Wednesdays for the month of June. Brutal! |
|
I got the last available bike. Not two minutes later, this lady walked up, said to the man on the bike next to me, "All the bikes are taken!!" with a definite whine to it, and glared at me I'm not movin', sweetheart. |
|
LOVE my new FitBit. |
|
Also LOVE my new glasses. |
|
Possibly the only Juice Couture item I will ever own. |
Thursday:
|
"Are you awake? Hmm?" |
|
My fastest mile in over a year--distance training made me slow down. |
|
Beautiful butterfly in the garden. |
|
It was Hug Your Cat Day. That's every day, around here. |
|
Tired legs. |
Friday:
|
Dude was man-spreading, gym-style. |
|
Kettlebell Friday. |
|
Tomatoes! |
|
Happy Doughnut Day. : ) |
|
We went to a local nursery, and it is SO photogenic. |
|
Rock Rabbit or Wock Wabbit? |
|
They also have little specialty shops--our purpose today was vinegar and olive oil. |
|
This shop was a lot of fun. |
|
The nursery has a cat. It wasn't very friendly, but I tried to befriend it anyway. |
|
Glass flowers. |
|
All that was left of my doughnut. |
|
It started with clouds and wind. Then thunder and lightening. |
|
Finally, RAIN. With blue sky. Which means... |
|
Rainbow! It was all very short-lived, but every drop of rain on this state is a blessing. |
