The Winter Blues

My life has been so boring recently. I think I always tend to feel this way following the holidays. It's like I was going 120 mph and now I'm at a standstill, sort of. I have lots of things I need to do but not motivation to do any of them. I might have a touch of the winter blues:( Hopefully my upcoming vacation will help me out of this rut!

Breakfast

This morning I really felt like having fruit. So I grabbed an apple (think it was a honey crisp) to eat at work:

Really good and hit the spot!

This morning, while waiting for our ride, my husband told me I looked tired. This is never a good thing to be told. Once I got to work I checked my emails and put my to do list together and then it was straight to Starbucks. I got my usual:

Lunch

The apple and latte for breakfast did a good job of keeping me satisfied until lunch. Once 1:00 pm hit I made a mad dash for some Tuscan White Bean soup:

So good and so filling! Unfortunately I didn't read the calories before I ate this soup, about 530 for a cup. Ouch!

While I ate my lunch I flipped through this magazine:

After work Patrick and I are going to a couple stores to purchase things we need for our trip. Hopefully we will be home at a reasonable hour so I can tackle my home to-do list:

• Load iPod


• Find a nice going out outfit for trip


• Layout the clothes I will wear on the plane


• Purchase case for Gameboy


• Wash swimsuit


• Clean kitchen counters


• Make list of what I need on plane


• Look at downloading ecto on computer?

Question:

What do you have in your carry on when you travel?

For me, the essentials are gum, magazines, book, iPod and sinus medication. Oh, and I can't forget about the noise canceling headset and water!
