First day of SUMMER!

I was soooo looking forward to today.

Reason No.1 - First full day of summer!

Reason No.2 - my last 2 miles running before R n' R Seattle this weekend.

Reason No.3 - massage scheduled! Schweet!!!!

Before I get into the deets, here was yesterday's Eats...

For lunch, I had a Salmon Spinach Salad.

For dinner, I made New-Fashioned Meatloaf (from Biggest Loser cookbook).

And this morning, after my quickie run, I did my yoga stretches and made my Green Protein Smoothie.

See all the goodness in there.

Then it was time to shower and head to my massage appointment.

Look at that temperature outside ~ awesomeness!!!

After a quick stop at the bank for some moolah...I finally made it there.

I have  never been to Elements ("chain" massage place) before but they had an introductory offer of $49 for newbies. So I said to myself, "Self, why not?!"

I must say, I was impressed. My masseuse (Rachael) was actually very good and kept asking me if the pressure was right, if I was comfortable etc. etc. She didn't use too much lotion (I hate it when I come out of a massage all slippery - yuck!). And gave me an ice cold water bottle at the end. For a 55 minute massage that's 10 minutes away from my house, I think I'm sold. They also have a membership deal that if you come in monthly, you basically pay $55 (as opposed to $69 regular). Sigh! I might just have to become a member.

On my way home, I saw a car accident, too. That sucks! People just need to be careful and NOT speed especially now that school's out (ahem - Mr. Frost Bites).

And then I watched this little guy as he sunbathed on the deck.

So glad that summer's here!!!!
