As I felt the sun beaming through my window this morning, I realized it might have just warmed up which lead me to waking up in a great mood.
Considering it was snowing just two nights ago, I expected slush to be everywhere since that is usually what is to be expected when it warms up enough to melt the snow. So, on my morning walk with Roadie around the neighborhood this morning, I geared up with a lighter winter coat and trusty rain boots to get me through the muddy areas.
Soon out, however, I realized there was no snow or slush to be found.
Within 48 hours, our ground turned from white and fluffy to dry and green. I really can’t figure it out.
You’ve got me, Michigan.
But hey, I’m the furthest from complaining right now… bring on the sunshine and spring!
Breakfast
I only have a few minutes to check in before I have to get out the door to do this whole sharing a car with Scott business. I will truly be thankful for the day when I get my own set of wheels again!
Anyways, breakfast was an old standard I prepared last night: overnight oats.
Paired with the usual giant cup of coffee… a cup of plain Greek yogurt, Tbsp. of chia seeds, 1/2 cup of raw oats, and enough milk to make it liquidy mixed and set overnight.
In case that confuses you… I fully plan on dedicating an entire post to my strategy and favorite versions of overnight oats. Coming up!
Lunch
Knowing I’ll be on the road for a little, I went ahead and made my lunch early. Using up the last of my prepared salad from Tuesday (<- it was still fresh!), I made a deli chicken and veggie filled wrap and plan to dive face first into it as soon as I publish this post.
Sliced deli chicken atop spinach, cucumbers, red, orange, and banana peppers, carrots, black and green olives, chick peas, feta cheese, cilantro, ground pepper, and a balsamic vinegar drizzle on a whole wheat tortilla.
As well as a bag of green grapes for the road!
I’m sure there will be another small meal and/or a lot of snacking that will take place throughout the day before taking Fitness Pilates tonight. Have I mentioned I just love that class? I’m sure you couldn’t tell at all…
All right, folks, I’m out! See you a bit later for today’s HWG Beauty Week post!

Same here in Ontario. Last week I was running and there was puddles on the sidewalks everywhere because of melting now, but now it’s fine again after the snow from yesterday. Gah! I can’t take this weather much longer. I bet you miss Florida a lot after this winter. I know I’m ready to move there! haha

Haha, so weird! And I’m with you… the warm and cold spurts really need to level out to a solid spring welcome! 🙂

That’s one thing I definitely won’t miss, by living here in California – the slush or muck after the snow melts and the mud and grass is all squishy. Lol.

Lol, it always gets me!
