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. |
