I took the advice of all you wise people and made sure to just relax and enjoy today
I spent the majority of the morning sipping coffee and watching Christmas movies. Not too bad if I do say so myself…and SO needed!
Lunch was a vegetarian sub from Which Wich –
I went with the tomato/avocado sandwich base and added all kinds of veggies, american cheese and a little oil and vinegar on a wheat sub.
It held me over well throughout the afternoon and even powered me through a workout!
It was rainy and gloomy so I figured what better day to head over to school and use the gym?
Plus my long walk yesterday definitely had my leg/back not feeling so great so I figured something low-impact would be a good idea.
It was crazy how empty campus was…I kind of loved it! I basically had the entire second floor and the whole weight room of the gym to myself.
I did a little over 4 miles and then headed to the weight room to do my back exercises…hopefully that helps quell the leg numbness a little!
I got home, showered, grabbed a pear + some crunchy peanut butter and then got sucked into Pinterest for a little while watching The Santa Clause…can’t help myself. I just love Christmas.
Dinner was completely roasted in the oven!
I threw some popcorn shrimp, some Alexia sweet potato waffle fries and broccoli on a sheet pan and popped it all in the oven for around 25 minutes.
Perfection.
With that, I’m off again to kick up my feet – until tomorrow everyone!
Oh and ps – can we just talk about this? best. breakfast. ever.

Glad you’re taking a break. School is out for me, but I’m still working, so it’s been hard to relax because I still feel like I have so much to do. I am trying to force myself to relax so I’m ready when school starts again in January!

Haha I know – I keep thinking of all these things I should be doing but I have to keep talking myself out of it because I feel like I need to be rested to tackle another semester!

Good for you taking a break! I get one (with travel) in a week and a half. I am in serious need of some time off! Ok, that gingerbread french toast…YUM!
Cait says
Yay for time off! I’m glad you get some 🙂 And I know right!? I think I drooled on the keyboard a little bit when I saw that!
