Why I’m Thankful

8

WE’RE BACK BABY!! AC is fixed, on and cooling my hot and weary body as we speak!!! Ahhhh…sweet, sweet cold bliss :) I shut all the blinds and drapes in the entire house too, so I’m sitting here in my cold, dark, cave-like house, muwahahaha…

Gosh, did anyone else’s day just fly by? I swear to you, mine went by in the blink of an eye! As soon as I wrapped everything up at work, I drove straight to the gym and headed straight to the treadmill where I knocked out 4 miles in a little under 40 minutes. It.Was.Amazing. The run went by so quickly and my whole body felt so light – a contender for one of the best runs I’ve ever had!

After a short cool down, I came straight home, took a freezing cold shower and busted out an easy, cool and extremely satisfying dinner: Cold Pasta Salad with Grilled Corn.

Yep – it was leftovers, but it was absolutely delicious. Cold and light, with a ton of different textures and flavors!

Grilled corn might be my favorite summer food. The charred grill flavor mixed with the sweet corn is bliss :D

I continued the cool down with 2 chopped kiwi!

Gosh, the combo of a great workout, the cold AC & and a perfectly satisfying dinner has left me feeling absolutely GREAT. It also reminds me how thankful I am to have the ability to run, a home to cool and food to eat. There are so many people that don’t have these abilities and abundances – I absolutely appreciate everything I have!!

What are you thankful for?

In addition to being thankful for my physical health, a great home to live in and food to put on my table every night – I’m thankful for a wonderful husband who would do anything for me (and vis versa) a wonderful family, great friends and really everything I could ever want. Why am I so sentimental tonight??

Have a wonderful evening friends!!
