The good & the bad!

My weekend started off great!  I had some girlfriends over Friday night for some Disney Sorry and a little Uno action.  Woke up Saturday morning and met Tonya for a run…we surprised ourselves and took a new route that ended up being over 6 miles!  We were very proud of ourselves for completing a 10K.  Now we feel super ready for the Peachtree Roadrace this Friday.  Saturday night we attended a painting class at Swirls Art Studio.  The concept is the same as Sips n Strokes.  An instructor leads you step by step through a particular painting and in the end you have your very own masterpiece.  You get to bring snacks and your beverage of choice to nosh on while you find your inner artist.  We decided to get some funky beers.  Of course I was packing the cherry beer but my girlfriend also picked up some Michelob Ultra fruit infused flavor.  We had the Pomegranate Raspberry and it was yummy!  The class was great, you really learn a lot about how a painting is done.  I do have to brag and tell you that the instructor told me that I painted in the same style as Salvador Dali.  Here is the painting that we attempted…

Now for the bad…..I woke up in the middle of the night Saturday with a wicked sore throat and a fever.  In the morning my glands were giant!  Uhhh!  I spent Sunday on the couch feeling pretty poor.  Riley took great care of me by making sure all of my nutritional needs were met.  She made me oatmeal, soup, grilled cheese, and macaroni.  Both of the girls cleaned the kitchen up for me.  They are awesome!  So everybody think good thoughts, put me in your prayers….I have to get better soon – I want to feel great for the race on Friday.
