Feels like I only share weekend updates with you guys. Oh well. Here’s another one 😀

This weekend actually gave us nice weather and we tried to enjoy it to the max.

Jim wanted to play basketball at the athletic club now before they close down. Since he was the only one in there I decided to join him but danced instead. Nice with lots of space.

We drove to costco around lunch time. We broke our previous record on how much money we spent there. Meat, more meat, salmon, bread, cheese, coffee, power bars, a $4 Fila sweater for me, two books and $25 puma shoes for Jim. Sometimes you can actually find some good deals, like a cheap sweater or real nice meat. We had a very awesome (and huge) steak for dinner that night. 

After shopping we took Thor for a long walk to the dog park and then we sat in the sun on the rooftop in our building for awhile. 

I woke up in the middle of the night with a sore throat so we took it pretty easy all Sunday morning. We had planned to go climbing but since I felt a little mushy we decided to bring Thor and drive down to Harbor Point instead. We walked by the water and then in the new park area. There’s a dog park as well and Thor got along with all the big dogs there…until one big dog attacked him and we decided to leave. 

Back in the apartment J went to the gym and I decorated our wreath that we have on the door. Why buy a new wreath when you can decorate the same one for each season? I’ve had two spring flowers in it after Christmas and now I changed into feathers and eggs for Easter. 

Then we went to our now normal weekend bar. I really wanted oysters so I first ordered 3 and then 3 more all just for myself:) later, Jim made burgers for dinner – with meat from costco of course. And then I was done for the day, just watched crap on tv before going to bed. 

I feel so much better today. Taking it easy yesterday was perfect. It was hard to get up when my alarm went off at 6 am, it took me another 30 minutes before I got up and took Thor out, but once I was up I was fit for fight. And then I went to the gym. Only for 20 minutes though before J had to leave for work. I have stuff to do today and we are going into the city tonight so I wanted to just get some cardio in right in the morning. Now I’m ready for a new week:)

Currently sitting on the couch with my laptop, Thor sleeping by my feet, I’m having a glass of red and the tv is on. Jim is out to dinner with work. He hasn’t been out with work really at all since we moved here, it’s just not as easy as before cause most people wants to go out in NYC it seems like. But he’s out with his team now closer to work. 

This week I’m pretending that it is warmer than it is outside. I’m just so sick of winter and staying inside, so I’ve been out for longer walks. Yesterday Thor and I walked to Mill River Park. Noone in the park. Thor was so happy and excited to be out for a long walk and to be in the park. He loves the words “walk” and “park” and when putting them together, it doesn’t matter where we are going or how far, he is super excited no matter what. I also make it sound exciting:) We were gone for over an hour. We have been for longer walks today as well. We both need it, Thor and I, after a long winter:)
