A Lazy Saturday Post

Just a quick note today. I’m having a weird day and I thought taking a minute to write would inspire me a bit.

I woke up at 6AM to run 5 miles with a friend.

It was awesome! Warm (45 degrees) and a slight rain. We had fun chatting and jogging. It’s just a great way to start the day!

When I got home I tried to "fix" my computer that didn’t need fixing at all. Apparently we had a few surges of power from a storm last night and it tripped some circuits. My laptop was plugged into one and I thought the battery was fried. Thankfully, it wasn’t.

I had a mini heart attack making me realize how dependent I really am on it.

For lunch I had some homemade chicken noodle soup and a strange sandwich.

Yup, those be beets in there. I have no idea what possessed me to open a can of beets but I’m glad I did. Delicious! I’ll post more details about the sandwich on GreenLiteBites tonight.

Now, well, now I’m being lazy and loving it. The baby is napping. The kid is watching TV. And The Husband is, yup you guessed it, SLEEPING.

We have a birthday party to get to this afternoon and then I have lots of work to catch up on.

Did I tell you Carla and I are co-authoring a book? No details yet but we are working with an agent and just submitted our sample chapter. I’m so excited and I love working on something WITH someone. I miss collaborating so much. I’m also working on a newsletter of sorts for all my sites. Kind of like a digest that would go out every month or so with my best posts and recipes. I know not everyone wants to subscribe via RSS and get a daily email so I thought this would be a fun way to share my content without bombarding inboxes. Would love your thoughts. Over on Toddler Times I’m already having fun. Yesterday I posted a photo journal of Little Bean eating oatmeal with a spoon. Yup, a spoon. It may sound boring but he’s just so fun to photograph and caption. The expressions on his face are priceless. Click here to see them. I’m on a bit of sandwichy kick on GreenLiteBites, yesterday I posted a quesadilla idea and tonight I’ll post the beet sandwich. I’m starting to get inspired again. I just needed to experiment with a few things for myself.

Ok, that’s all I have today. Like I said, just a post to break up my Saturday. Looks like both husband and baby are now up and OF COURSE he wants to go out for lunch now that he slept till noon. *eye roll* I already ate so he can fend for himself. ;)
