Check Me Out!

I am still jet-lagged, but I knew that would be the case. Last night I set up my coffee, made my lunch, laid out my clothes, and packed my gym bag.

Preparation is key.

Yesterday I made a big pot of vegetarian chili for the week. I chopped some vegetables. I took some pasta sauce out of the freezer. I am prepared.

I know what I will be eating for each and every meal this week!

*I walk my dog every day, but these are extra walks on top of the minimum amount of walking he needs. My little doggie is a couch potato, so a little extra walking won't hurt him.

Anyway... I'm happy for my plan. It gives me something to look forward to and takes the guess work out of the week. WooHoo!

I also plan to write the thank you notes and work on my master's thesis this week.

There is plenty of time to do all of this stuff. Trust me!

Happy Monday!
