Long Weekend in the Twin Cities

This past weekend with the family was great. Friday night we had a bit of nasty weather to drive through but arrived safe and sound. What's new, considering I was in the car. After spending a good chunk of Saturday shopping, we relaxed at a local Wine and Bistro in Chanhassen and enjoyed wonderful music by Alison Scott. I tried finding a really good clip on youtube, but this is the best I could find. It gives you a good idea of what kind of music she performs:




Sunday we did a bit more shopping and then headed downtown for the Timberwolves/Lakers game. The Lakers currently have 46W and 10L, while the Timberwolves have 18W and 37L. It was a close game the entire night and the Timberwolves gave the Lakers a run for their money. However the Lakers pulled through with a win, 111-108. Here's a few pics from the game.

Tomorrow I am back to work AND I have my PT appointment. I will post more about that and my thoughts on my new Yoga Strong knees video tomorrow!

Weekend Highlights

Sinus/Cold Update: My stuffy nose and sore throat turned into a full blown cold. Saturday while out and about shopping, I was miserable (feeling as if my head was going through a meat grinder) and finally took a time out to find some cold medicine. Today I am feeling a hundred times better and look forward to getting back into my workout routine. I know that my tiredness last week was coming from the onset of this cold.

Moving Sis & Bro-in-law: ....it just didn't work out. But, being the positive thinker I am, I know it will happen in due time.

Saturday: We did a bit of shopping and later that evening we went to the Budweiser's Twins Unplugged at a bar. I was so pumped. It was an opportunity for fans to come and ask questions, and eventually get some autographs! I felt like a little kid standing in line for these autographs!

Twins Players (left to right): Mike Redmond (catcher), Nick Punto (2nd base), Michael Cuddyer (right field)
Those guys looked exhausted. They had just played 3 games within about 26 hours....due to a double header on friday!


Sunday: The whole fam hit up a baseball game. The Twin's lost and it was an awful game. That is pretty much all I can say about that.

The long weekend is almost over, which means it will be the start of another work week. As much as I love my job, I am looking forward to it being a short week. I think once we get our schedules figured out, it will be much more enjoyable! Tonight I look forward to spending the evening looking over some paperwork, doing laundry, and figuring out my workout schedule for the week! Yippee! I am ready to get back to the gym!

Tomorrow?

SPIN!

Happy Labor Day, y'all!
