So it’s Monday. The beginning of another week, back on schedule or to the daily grind as some may say. I must say that my Monday started out on a very high note. It’s a GORGEOUS day and I had an awesome run this morning! I ran for 2 hrs. and 34 minutes….. just kidding, I wish that was the case. Apparently, I forgot to stop my watch. I did however run a good 45 minutes. Today’s run was peaceful; it was early, the sun was shining and I ran a completely different route today down by the lake. What a great start to a busy Monday eh!

yes, i know.. i need to get more running shirts for some variety.

I think it really helps to change the route up once and awhile… new things to look at and new places to explore. I even think it’s important for safety reasons too…. just incase someone is following or watching you.

This weekend was a busy yet enjoyable one.

On Saturday we went to the Outlet Malls in Niagara Falls because I wanted to find some clothes and see how the deals were. Well, deals there were not or at least not what I was expecting. I did find a few things for a decent price though, so I left happy. I was also very happy that G-Man bought some clothes too because he never buys anything for himself. Normally he always buys things for me and boys and comes home empty handed for himself.

Saturday evening we decided to go for a walk by the lake. It was SO beautiful.

It was busy with people of all ages with lots going on. We really enoyed the beauty and calmness of the water and each others company. 

how romantic eh... aren't we cool ;)

playing around... i almost fell in the water a couple of times.

Of course, we did so over an ice cream cone. Did you expect anything less?

So G-Man and I are not big partiers by any means. It had been awhile since we had gone out on a date, so Saturday night we went out in Niagara Falls with some friends. We went to Taco n Tequila – a Mexican eatery and bar. It was our first time there. I would say it’s more Colombian than Mexican though haha I think my hubby was the only Mexican in the house! There was a live band playing latino music and the environment was pretty decent. The music was really good…I reallllly love dancing salsa.

We didn’t get home until after 4am. Yes, 4 AM. Crazy, I know… way past my bed time. Yes, I do realize I am a Granny but I don’t care. I would much rather go to bed early and wake up early than stay up half the night.

Sunday was a good day too. We had a gift certificate to use at Johnny Rocco’s so the hubby and I went for a late lunch. I had primavera pasta and G-Man had chicken and mushroom risotto, it was pretty good. The lunch portions were really big so we walked out of there very full.

I think it will be our last time there though… it’s not my all-time favorite and the service isn’t that great.. If I’m going to go out to eat, I want it to be worth it.

Wherever you are, whatever you are doing, I hope you had a great weekend! 

Are you a nighthawk or an early riser?
~ Without question, an early riser…. although, I do enjoy a good sleep-in once in awhile.
