Weekending: 6 1/2 Day Edition

Having an impromptu winter break provided me with a lot of time to get work done around the house, for work, and to daydream a little about some home improvement projects.  Unfortunately, that does not mean that I have a ton of pictures to show for it.

Friday, we finally got out of the house and ran out to dinner at Tijuana Flats.

I tried the chicken flautas and they were delicious!  I will definitely get them again in the future.

Saturday morning, I ran some errands for some upcoming events and while I was out, I grabbed DG and me breakfast sandwiches from Bagels Plus.  If you live in the area and haven't tried there, go as soon as possible.  I haven't had anything from there that I haven't loved.

Also, my mom and dad rescued a little puppy.  Her name is Madeline and she is a boxer mix!  Isn't she adorable?

Saturday night, we had dinner with friends at Aviator in Fuquay.  I finally tried something new and got the veggie stack burger.  It was seriously delicious!

And y'all, I am SO excited to say this last part.  Sunday DG cleaned our house.  He did an awesome job, but that's not even what I'm excited about.  I went for an 8 mile run and I was really nervous.  I put a lot of internal pressure on myself to run and run well, and sometimes my brain defeats me.  So, when I started out, I kept trying to shut my brain down.  At 2.5 miles, I felt like maybe I wasn't going to do 8, and I talked myself down from that and did 8.  What's even more exciting for me was I kept my comfortable pace and I didn't stop to walk at all.  I did hit a killer hill around mile 4, but I ended my weekend on a really great runner's high.

How was your weekend?  Staying warm and dry?

P.S. don't forget that Joey's book is on sale right now!
