Dark and Rainy

Hot cereal for a dark rainy day

It’s a rainy, dark morning.  Shane and I were completely soaked when we got home. 

Getting up wasn’t too difficult this morning, probably because tomorrow is a day off - I get to sleep in until 5:30 - 6AM.  I ran for 21 minutes, ET for 15 min., chest and biceps for 35 minutes, and walked with Shane for 32 minutes. 

Morning meals:  3/4 scoop J.Robb Protein=pre workout.  Post exercise meal:  1 scoop J.Robb w/ 1/2 banana, 1 strawberry. 1/3 cup Bob’s Red Mill 5 Grain Hot Cereal w/ Flax + 1/2 banana + 1 tsp craisins + 1 tsp peanut butter.

At 7:14 AM, you can JUST see a little bit of light outside. Sad isn’t it?  Summer is gone.  Fall is here which is the first stop before winter.  The changing seasons is to be appreciated however, the RAINY season is certainly not welcome!  I’m not a real complainer about getting wet. Some people really freak out about rain and getting wet… we’ll dry!  My mother for one absolutely hates the rain.  You would think she’d take it in stride as she was born and raised in England. 

I tried to stay awake for the debate last night and managed to for about 1/2 hour.  I caught the last 15 min. this morning while working out.  Obama has such a calming persona.  This Country does need change and neither candidate is going to resolve the current crisis in his four year term.  But it’s a tough choice trying to decide who will at least make steps in the right direction.  I think we need a President who will bring people and business together in a group effort to resolve the Country’s problems.  We can’t sit back as citizens and look  to one individual to solve all the problems.  There isn’t a situation that arises where the people/person who caused chaos can sit back and let another person fix it. Group effort. Team work. We need a President who will bring the US together as a strong team, offensively AND defensively. 

The last issue I have with this Thursday morning is that the paper is late- AGAIN!  On the bright side, things will only get better!  Have a great Thurs. AM and work hard or play hard.
