Friday was another WFH day and due to an alarm snafu at night that required a visit in the morning I was unable to get out and get my gift card manicure and pedicure on so I did them myself: nails in OPI Purple Palazzo Pants and toes in Excuse Me, Big Sur!
Friday night was MFD's campaign benefit to celebrate getting on the ballot. I have literally two photos and none of us together. Thanks to our friends and fam who came out to support MFD! It makes this whole thing feel much less isolating. because that's something else no one tells you about your spouse running for office: it's isolating and the importance of my people has never been clearer. After cleaning up we got home around 11:40 and I fell asleep around 1.
Saturday morning he was off to DC and I was off to the shore with los perros to chill. And chill I did in more ways than one...the wind had a winter underbite to it. I went to the library, walked the beach and boards, took the dogs on 408 walks, cleaned the apartment, and decided to come home at night in lieu of waking up to a 40s and rainy Sunday there. I just needed to put my bare feet in the sand and connect with the earth.
Sunday was a very slow start. I got up late, only had one cup of coffee, and trolled around. It was gray and cold outside and I wasn't inspired to do much aside from some laundry and shower and reading. That sounds sort of like what a recipe for Sunday is, I guess?
Weekly food prep: hard boiled eggs and power breakfast muffins for breakfast, hummus/veggies/pita for lunch, dinner is deconstructed chicken parm over farfalle with a spinach/cucumber/onion salad - dregs of the produce drawer. I also made Kodiak blueberry lemon protein muffins to freeze. Still cleaning out my freezer and pantry and I'm actually using most stuff in a way that makes sense. I'm impressed.
How was yours?
