Challenges

Between the holiday weekend and going to Denver on business next week, I'll be facing a lot of challenges to my food and exercise program. I've already starting planning what to pack such as nonperishable snacks and workout clothes. I belong to the rewards program for the hotel I'm staying in and so I get a little welcome snack and beverage thingy put in my room. Now I could've set my profile to candy or chips for my snack but instead I chose fresh fruit.

The Saint needs to put air in the tires so we can ride our "new" bikes this weekend. I can't wait! I'm sure we will laugh our asses off at each other but that's part of the fun.

Saturday morning we're going to AW's hockey "game." I don't know that you can really call it a game when actually it's just a bunch of 5 year olds careening around the rink trying their best to remain upright and/or not knock each other over. On Sunday we're going to The Saint's brother's house for the day: watch the Indy 500, baseball, play with the kids and grill. Monday I just want to relax and pack because I leave for Denver on Tuesday.

While you're enjoying your three day weekend, don't forget to remember our vets and current members of the armed forces. Fly your flag. Be proud to be an American.
