Wednesday (14,411 steps) - Olive walk before going to work in the office. Went for my easy run (it was shorter than I had thought it would be) and actually did a yoga restorative video after before I went back to work.
Got out of work a few minutes late and it actually did make a difference for the amount of traffic I hit. Goosie’s newest outfit came - doesn’t she look festive/adorable?
Took Olive for a walk, dinner and more FBI: Most Wanted. I did actually fall asleep on the couch, which has happened more than once recently, even though I am getting plenty of sleep.
Thursday (12,168 steps) - Actually woke up feeling pretty refreshed, well before my alarm. Ready some of my book and drank my coffee before doing a Peloton ride and used the rower for the first time in ages. It needed a software update and I had to leave my phone down there while it was doing the update. That was only annoying because I had transitioned from Chrome to Edge and some of my passwords weren’t moving over and I had to use a QR code that was on the phone and then had to check my email for another code… let’s just say it was irritating and took close to 45 minutes for things to work properly.

Took Olive for a longer walk to the lake even though it was incredibly windy.
Finally got more serious about getting all my stuff packed for Florida - I still think it is insane the drop bag size that we are limited to.
I had hoped to do some driving after work, but I did not get any offers. Met up with Ben for our usual dinner at Torchy’s.
Friday (10,341 steps) - Took Olive for a walk before going to work in the office. It was a pretty busy day. Went for a longer walk at lunch.
Dropped Olive off at home before meeting Ben at 4 Noses for a happy hour. It was insanely crowded and we had to share a table with two women. They were very nice though, so it wasn't terrible. We ate a few sushi handrolls, which ended up just being what we had for dinner.
Ben rented "The Astronaut," but I fell asleep before it was over. Oops.
Saturday (19,511 steps) - Slept in a bit. Took Olive for a walk. Ben and I headed over to New Terrain so I could do my run on the Freemont Trail. The run itself was fine.
Went back home for a snack and quick shower before I went out to do some driving since UE was offering incentives again. Well, my car had other plans. I drove to where I usually sit to wait for orders and when I tried to start my car the engine would not turn over.
After multiple attempts with nothing working I sent Ben a text to see if he was still home to come help me. He gave my battery a charge and the car started right up. We drove down the street to O'Reilly for them to do a battery check up. Unfortunately, I was not even able to get the car started again to drive up by the store. Ben had to give the battery another jump. I called Schomp and discovered they were still open, so unexpected trip down to Highlands Ranch. Ironically, I already had a service appointment scheduled for when I got back, but I guess they will just get everything done while I am in Florida. Always something.
We stopped at Parry's on the way home and had a burger and a beer.
Took Olive for a quick walk and then we watched the newest Frankenstein movie, which was pretty good!
Sunday (12,864 steps) - Tried to sleep in a bit and actually made it past 7:30. Did more packing while Ben ran to Dutch Bros to get us coffee. Our fitness activity of the day was taking Olive to the dog park.
After, we went to Rails End. The women we had been talking to on Friday told us that dogs were allowed inside, so we figured we would see if that was true - it is!!
Headed home and I briefly had to log in to work to email everyone and let them know I would need to take half the day off on Monday for travel... I ended up reading and taking Olive for another walk while Ben went out to wash his truck and pick up pizza for dinner. We watched “The Woman in Cabin 10” and it was much better than I think either of us expected.
Monday (11,398 steps) - Work from home.
Finished last minute packing, showered, took Olive for a walk. Logged out at 10:30 and the Uber picked me up shortly after to go to Union Station where I took the train. Ben randomly met me at the stop by his work to give me an orange safety vest - last minute mandatory gear requirement. Arrived at the airport with just over two hours to spare and there was thankfully zero lines for security. Walked around a bit to get my steps and then sat outside and read my book until it was time to board. I was lucky enough to sit in an emergency row so I had a ton of space.
I watched “The Perfect Neighbor” and an episode of Gilmore Girls. After getting off the plane, I went to pick up my rental, only to find out that they had cancelled my reservation since for some reason I had scheduled to pick up at 11 am (?) Luckily they were able to recreate it. I got a Jeep Compass, and thankfully the CarPlay worked. I had a drive of about an hour south to St. Augustine. When I got close to the hotel I stopped at Publix to grab some groceries and then got dinner at Whataburger.
