Weekend + Workout Recap

Weekend

This weekend was nice. It was a good mixture of scheduled activities and down time, seeing people and being solo. I wish VERY much that Thanksgiving break were this week (it SHOULD be this week!), but I tomorrow is a work day so I have to push though.

Friday I dropped my son at the dojo then went to Costco. I didn’t need much, but a ton of stuff was on sale so I spent $265. Not at all surprising. Back at home my husband and I started His Three Daughters, but he passed out early and I had to finish it myself (not uncommon on Friday night).

Saturday morning my son and I were at the dojo by 9:45. The test was over 2.5 hours long and then I stayed for a couple of my classes. I was there for over five hours! I was really tired by the time I got home, but I still did a little workout on the bike, because I missed sparring and felt like I needed to get my heart rate up. My son had a friend over to spend the night and he arrived around 5:30. My husband and I walked up to the new burrito place and made our first order. They were amazing! We’re so excited to have a quality burrito spot nearby. Back at home the boys decided to watch the first Venom movie, but not before we signed up for a seven day free trial of Starz so they could watch the second movie (the trailer freaked them out). That night my husband and I watched the first couple episodes of the Party Down reboot. It was so good! We’ve watched the original seasons so many times and I didn’t have high hopes for the reboot, but it has been really good.

Sunday morning I got worked done while the boys played video games. My son’s friend left around 11am, and we laid low for a couple hours – the kids reading while I did work. At 2:30, the kids and I drove down to my parents’ house. We did an escape room game with my sister for a couple hours, hugged her good bye (she leaves tomorrow), then headed home. It was good to see her one last time, and to kill a few hours with the kids on a slow Sunday. At home I worked out, we had dinner, watched some Parks and Rec and got ready for the week.

I got a seven loads of laundry done! I ordered my son new shoes! I finished checking over AND COMMENTING ON all the 1B Trimester 1 Reflections. Woot!

  1. Sounds like great productive weekend for you & family. Really happy 4 you all! Hope this last week before break is smooth at work/school for everyone. Thanks for posting.
    Walked with 2 friends India Basin Shoreline Park and Heron’Head. The are connected wonderful commentary on what a neighborhood can achieve. Right on Bay, peaceful and beautifully laid out with LOTS of good info presented. Waa Sunday afternoon, no parking issues but that can be fluke in SF. Think you would enjoy. Even have a rowboat rental place where you can row or be rowed! Maybe you’ve already been there.

  2. Oh, I’ve done that dead bug workout (once). It makes my lower back hurt. Is there something I could do to make that better I wonder? The last think I want is an injury.

    Sounds like a satisfying weekend.
