(Also titled on the other site). Yes! I received this imaginary award just yesterday by a group of my imaginary peers and friends; I bought (with the help of my mother) and assembled a Brinkman grill for hubby, yesterday. He was so happy. Really, he smiled and smiled and smiled. I wish I could have captured that smile in a jar to witness whenever I needed a boost. He hasn't used it yet, but promised to take the manual with him to work today to "study up" so he could grill the practice steaks I bought for him, yesterday.
Because of the craziness of the day, I didn't get in my workout. I doubt anyone reads this side, but for my own edification, it should be noted. When the calorie allotment is tallied at the top of each journal listing, there is never a "burned" amount (even though I document my calorie burns, when I know them, in the diary entry). I do this because, when workout calories are entered, the calorie allotment for the day is increased. It's just to tempting for me to go ahead and dive into that surplus when I see it. It's just easier to document the workouts in the diary, where they can't cause me trouble.

I spent the day running back and forth between banks (moving money around, since we're making reservations and payments for our vacation, coming soon). I also jumped on a Home Depot sale and purchased hubby's Birthday/Father's day gift. I assembled the grill between 2-4pm. He loves it!
The kids,however,have succeeding in making me absolutely frustrated and crazy. I was glad when hubby came home, so he could run a bit of interference for me. The weekend splurge will, hopefully, not do do much damage (with all of the day's activities). [edit this diary entry]

Worked out this morning (program 3) on the elliptical and burned 281 calories. Had fast food for dinner, but didn't go over too badly. The salt is more than I would like (the freaking snack wrap...I'll know next time). [edit this diary entry]
