Crunch

Today I left work for a lunch date with the hubby. I was excited. I never ever leave the building for lunch. I was headed to Old Chicago for some tasty pizza when I took my eyes off of the car in front of me for a second and then......crunch! The car in front of me came to an abrupt stop and when I looked back from my one second glance away I tried to stop but couldn't. Dang it anyway! Turned out the car in front of the girl I hit had to come to a sudden stop, the car in front of me was able to stop but I was not. My hood crinkled and the car I hit lost it's rear bumper. No one was hurt at all. I was going slow when I hit her. It didn't even really feel like I hit anything to be honest. I am sure there is thousands of dollars worth of damage though. Man, that $500 lunch wasn't worth it!

I got back to the office and my boss told me to leave early. I left at a little after 4 pm and came home to get in a little workout. 2 miles on the treadmill at a heart rate of approx 135. I'm trying out the Maffetone Method so my heart rate monitor and I are going to become close friends. After the run I lifted some weights. I need to stick with the regular strength training especially since I'm getting older.

We made some gnocchi (ick) and hung out with the kiddos. Tomorrow we will spend some time with my mom and sister and her family. It should be fun!

The pictures are just random sprinkled in to show what's going on with the little ones.  Sam made her first snowman and a snow cave with Daddy.  Brett is starting to reliably roll over and he is still the happiest little boy with the biggest smile ever!!!  We love you two!! XOXOXO!!!
