go go go!

Yesterday I woke up bright and early for a morning lake run. Made sure to have a half turkey sandwich on wheat (protein, fiber, and carbs) to fuel for the run. Jogged a 5.35 mile run around the lake (not too bad, 59 mins/11min mile) with D, feeling the burn from yesterday's weighted walking lunges. hurt so good!

Raced home for a shower, had a Cliff Mojo bar and banana, then was off to appointments with a few designers. Fun stuff! I'm always a bit stressed until I see all of the clothing and accessories and have them in my hands. Munched on Vermont cheddar Wheat Thins in the car while driving around for the next 4 hours...what a lifesaver! I didn't actually like them very much (low salt is much better!), but I was glad to have something to eat!

Finished my last appointment around 4:30, then stopped at starbucks for an iced passion tea and roasted tomato and mozzarella sandwich before going home to take a nap. Had to make sure I was well rested for the long drive ahead!

Woke up 3 hours later and munched on some bento- chicken kara age, corokke, and rice while checking emails. Then packed the car full and was on my way to LA a couple hours later.

Gas stations and food/drink breaks are my saviours while driving. I look forward to them as the miles fly by. This time I finally got to have a McDonald's double cheeseburger mini meal- they've been advertising these mini meals for over a year now! Later had a Snapple peach ice tea- yes, the best stuff on earth IS even better now. It seems to have lost a bit of that "fake" sweetner/mix taste it used to have. And lastly snacked on some cherry Twizzler bits.

Arrived in LA accident free, safe, and on a sugar high. Oh well, at least I'm here.
