I’m so happy to see the arrival of the weekend. It’s been a crazy week. I’m actually taking the weekend off and heading down to Georgia to visit my grandmother. I haven’t seen her since Thanksgiving and we still need to do our Christmas celebration!

Yesterday’s overnight oats were so good I had to repeat them again this morning. Same exact mix as the previous day. I have really missed this breakfast!

I grabbed lunch from Energy Cafebetween teaching a yoga class and a yoga private at Charlotte Athletic Club. I had half of the power packed chicken salad – a super healthy low-fat chicken salad made with roasted chicken, low-fat mayo, dried cranberries and nuts served on marathon multigrain bread – and a build your own salad with all kinds of good toppings and balsamic vinaigrette.

I am so obsessed with this restaurant. It is perfect for lunch. They feature healthy and fresh foods. The half and half combo is only $6.99 and such good deal. You can build your own salad with no limit on the toppings. It also comes with a drink and I love their unsweetened iced peach black tea.

I had plans of packing up and leaving for my grandmother’s this evening but it started raining and some devil dog decided that it was a good idea to roll in the mud.

Sullie was such a mess that I had to immediately put her in the tub and bathe her. Bad! Lucky for her, she’s too cute when she’s wet to stay mad at for very long. I should have taken a before picture of her covered in mud! 😉

I called my grandmother and we decided that I should wait and leave Saturday morning since the weather was so bad and I didn’t want to spend four hours in the car with wet dog smell.

Since I didn’t have to rush to get on the road I went to pick up a new book. I really enjoy wandering around bookstores. I also enjoy reading but have been such a slacker about it lately.

I saw Poser: My Life in Twenty-Three Yoga Poses in the “new in paperback” section and remembered hearing good things about it when it first came out. Has anyone read it? I will let y’all know what I think. There is a strong possibility that I will read the whole thing over the weekend at my grandmother’s! Looking forward to the downtime.

Dinner tonight was sushi and a cookie. Half brown rice tuna/avocado, half spicy tuna/cucumber and a vegan everything cookie. Yum!

Off to pack and get to bed. I’m trying to hit the road bright and early tomorrow.

Anyone have fun weekend plans?
