Thursday: Run, Bike, Yoga and I Have Almost Completely Eradicated Easter Candy From my LIfe

Oh, Easter Candy, whither did thou get such a hold on me? I am deep deep into an Easter Candy hole. I thought I was over it, and then there was a basket of malted strawberry eggs at work today. I did manage to shy away from the locally made Cocoa Tree peanut butter truffles today, though Tuesday it was a different story. Tomorrow, I plan to avoid Easter candy all together and maybe hit Yogurt world in the evening. Maybe.

I feel better now that I have confessed my Easter candy issues. I can move on to today's workout. Though I overslept a little bit, I did get in a 7 mile run where I was forced to stop my watch so that I could stop to go to the bathroom (too much coffee, too much tea, too much water and orange juice) and when I started running again, I forgot to restart my watch. It is one of my most common frustrations. I always have to go to the bathroom, and I always forget to restart my watch. Then, I end up hopping up from public urination, running a mile or so before realizing that I haven't reset my watch, cursing to myself, restarting my watch and feeling more than irritated.

I did get the run in, and I then had to hustle Ivan off to his two year check-up. I love Ivan's pediatrician, Dr. Bastian at Heritage Medical if you are interested, and we had great talks about Ivan's eating habits and the interesting things that he is reading. When your child is well and quite small, a checkup at the pediatrician's office is basically a social call. So it was lovely! We then hit the grocery and I headed home to get in lunch and a shower before heading to work.

At home, I got in a yoga session before making salmon pasta with the amazing smoked salmon we were given as an Easter gift. It was delicious. I need to put the recipe on my blog as it is life changing.

After dinner and putting Ivan Sloan to bed, I climbed onto the bike and got in a ride while watching Kris Kristofferson's Biography on A&E. He has 8 children and he met his third wife at the gym.

Such a big day, and only 5 contestants left on Project Runway!!!
