Silly Me...

Silly me, I had 6 miles on the schedule for today. But, I forgot that I am running 13 on Saturday. I didn't really forget, I just forgot that I want fresh legs to run on. So, I am taking today off. I want completly fresh legs, just like I want for the race (in 16 days). I have an extra 2 hours today. I didn't realize today was going to be a rest day until 2 hours ago. Wow! What am I going to do? Last night, we made a really good dinner (yes, hubs helped me a lot). We made black bean & chicken chilaquiles. It was super easy and quick. Instead of using corn tortillas, I used whole wheat. That was the only diffence. I wasn't sure how good this was going to turn out. It was a lot of tortillas in this recipe. It turned out pretty good. The biggest thing is that it uses pre-cooked chicken (which I always have on hand). I took about 15 minutes to prep and 10 minutes (aka shoeer time) to cook (aka heat through). It was a good dinner and I can't wait for the leftovers!! I have tomorrow off from my workout so, as well, I'll be running my usualy errands with the hubs. The hubs usually comes with me because it's a free date. I need to spend the money anyways, and if he comes, it something different. Yes, we're very poor.


What do you guys do for cheap dates?

  1. We're pinching our pennies too - dates usually involve a $1 redbox movie and the couch....and wine. Always wine.

  2. We just download movies and eat. So exciting! Hikes are our go-to date but hubs has a busted calf so now we are sedentary :)

  3. Yahtzee. Scrabble. Bonfires. Pandora dance parties. It's like we're 33 going on 8. :)

  5. Enjoy your day off! I use to hate running errands w/the bf because I use to tease him that it was like shopping with a kid, "can we", "i wanna" then I just embraced his inner child and love the extra time with him.
