2539

2539 was the final total of miles logged during our trip. We finally arrived home after our two day slog from Florida. I pretty much spent the last 3 days in Florida sleeping in, napping on the couch or napping outside on the deck. I think Mindy was getting a little embarrassed by it all in the end but I was determined to prove that I could relax and feel at home with her family. We really did intend for these days to be a chance to unwind and relax after Disney and aside from a bit of fishing (both of the girls caught fish with their new rods), we really did not do a whole lot.

New Year's Eve was spent quietly at the house. The party animal side of Mindy came out with her having two "Mike's Hard Lemonade's" and 1/2 a glass of Baily's...before falling asleep on the couch by 10:00pm. To be fair, she did not have the benefit of the 3 days of napping in Jacksonville mentioned above. We also watched "Tropic Thunder", a movie which had a good idea but we both thought could have been done a LOT better...perhaps making it funny would have been a good start.

Basically the rest of the week is set for relaxing and getting ready for work next week. In addition, we are both working our resolutions to eat better, exercise more and drop a bit of weight. The first step is keeping a food diary and tracking exactly how much we are consuming. Kind of shocking when you start to really look at this...
