It started out well. I woke up before 7, ran 6 miles, went to Bible study, had lunch with the husband/in-laws…then when I got home – NOTHING. I fell asleep while reading. Then woke up and watched TV. Then read blogs. Then walked the dog. Then read some more. It was glorious.
Backtrack to post-run breakfast…
Green(ish) monster: ½ frozen berries, 2 cups spinach, ½ cup almond milk, ½ cup water, 2 cups ice
The said lunch with in-laws…
Vegetarian salad from Costa Vida – kind of meh
I snacked a lot in the afternoon, but my lazy pants prevented me from digging my camera out of my purse. One snack I did photograph: trail mix
Eaten while engaging in a staring contest with Bellatrix.
I finally rallied for dinner and grilled up some chicken, made a cabbage slaw (dressed with oil + vinegar), and roasted some ‘taters with dill from my brother’s garden (thanks Matt and Sheila!)
This is our go-to dinner for lazy nights…the grill and salad. I’m actually kind of impressed with my initiative to roast the potatoes.
That does it.
Hope you all are having lazy evenings! If not, keep your head up, tomorrow is FRIDAY! I’m doing the weekend dance for you all…
You deserve a lazy day! And honestly, everything that you did in the morning would have made me need an afternoon off too!!! I love afternoons like that!
i’m so excited that tomorrow is friday. lazy days are AWESOME!! you deserve one…or 20
Hey at least you had a REALLY good morning. And sometimes, lazy days are the best and NEEDED!
6miles, bible study and lunch is MORE than enough for a day! But then again, my biggest accomplishment in the last 6months was watching every single episode of Buffy, so perhaps I’m misinformed? Glad you had fun!
Lazy days are great, I can’t wait to start having them…only 2-3 weeks more and then I’m one lazy girl
I love lazy days! They are good for the soul
Your lunch salad looks so fresh, yum.
I can’t wait until I can have lazy days this summer
Any day that starts with a 6 mile run, is better than my most active day and doesn’t count as a lazy day!!!
We all need them though, so I’m glad you enjoyed yours

Awww, your lazy day sounds so amazing, and I enjoyed living it through you!
That looks exactly like our go-to summer meal! Might have to make it this weekend!
You deserve lazy girl after a full school year! I was totally lazy last night..lounged on the couch..didn’t go to the gym..ate chocolate. It was AWESOME!
Oh sometimes lazy days are the best!! Glad you took full advantage!
There’s nothing wrong with wearing those lazy pants every once in awhile! Your cat is so pretty.. looks like she wants to try your trail mix
yay friday!!! i am so jealous you have the summer of to relax!!!! nice job on that run
It is summer break for you, you can be lazy as much as you want, I know I sure would have been! At least you were still active and got out of the house, props for that.
I’m doing the Friday dance right now, I can’t wait for the weekend!
Love it! I got home early from work on Wednesday and had grand plans of productivity. I took a 2 hour nap instead. It was awesome
.
Hey, sometimes you’ve just got to chill out and not do anything. It’s necessary!
i just caught up on 11 posts, and the only thing i can say is: YOU HAVE THE CUTEST NIECES AND NEPHEW EVER.
Girl of all people you definitely deserve a lazy day! I gotta say that I love what you had for dinner. It makes me want to go grill some chicken and make some cole slaw even though it’s breakfast time for me right now
Your cabbage slaw looks like something I could eat every day
awesome!
Thank you for your comment! I love slaw – it’s the easiest “salad” for summertime. And it just gets better as it sits in the refrigerator.
Have a great day, Katie
