I still haven't gone to the gym or worked out since last Friday. I'm pretty sure it's because I'm not on my normal routine and I'm actually SHOCKED that I have stayed on track with food since I've been home almost all day, every day. You win some, you lose some, right? It could be a lot worse. I'll get back to the gym next week. Once I'm in Minnesota there is a gym right at my hotel so that will be even more seamless for me. I'm excited!

What I'm also excited for in Minnesota is access to Whole Foods and a $40 per diem for food. I know what fruits I like, but I don't know a ton about vegetables. My parents never made me eat them when I was a kid, so I really only know the standards. What does everyone like to eat for veggies? How do you prepare them? I'm looking forward to experimenting because it's not MY money that I'm spending so I don't feel bad if I try something and have to throw it out because I don't like it.

I'm hoping that when I finish Fifty Shades I can get some housework and laundry done. I don't like book three as much as I liked the other two and I hear the ending is nothing to be desired. I think I will finish it today, which is a good thing since I need to clean my apartment, do laundry, and go camping shopping. I love that I saved all my errands until Friday. I'm leaving for up nort Saturday. My parents built a Tiki Hut up there:



I can't wait to get out there and RELAX!
