The Australian Open is over
I bet you’re glad and tired of hearing about it! lol
I woke this morning and watched the men’s final while eating breakfast. Congrats to Roger Federer on winning the Australian Open and his 16th major title! Wow that is simply amazing and I’m sure he has more major wins still in him.
I added a few walnuts to breakfast and it was very filling.
After watching the tennis final I hit up our elliptical trainer for 30 minutes while reading my Harry Potter book. Man, that book is good! I can’t wait to see how it all finishes.
I’m not sure if it was my breakfast or what, but I never got hungry for lunch. After showering up I went to the grocery store and still did not feel hungry. By 3:30 I told myself I need a snack at least because we had dinner plans at my parents in the evening for Jesse’s birthday. Mom’s birthday dinners are easy to overindulge in so I wanted a snack early to help resist going overboard.
Went with an apple and a very ripe banana with some PB.
We got to Mom and Dad’s around 5pm and soon sat down to dinner. Mom outdid herself as usual: brisket, potatoes, coleslaw, texas toast, corn on the cob, and ranch style beans. Oh my! I had some of everything.
So good! Everything was delicious. The brisket was very tender!
After dinner we had birthday cake. Mom made Jesse a German chocolate cake. Yum!
Then we sat around the fire and chatted. It was really nice. I love my parents and my husband so spending the evening with them over great food is always nice. 
Now it’s time to wrap up the weeekend and get ready for the work week again! I love the time off, but am ready to get back to the work week routine.
Night all!
