Good Morning, FS Warriors! It's a rather cool 45F here in the Land of Lincoln. Got up and ran about 3 1/2 miles at a fairly easy pace. Got lazy and did it on the treadmill. It's boring, but it saves me some time and allows me to sleep in until 3:45 or 4:00. Ate a bowl of frosted cheerios with some kind of dried fruit in it, and then ate 2 hard boiled eggs when I got to work. Probably should have eaten the hard boiled eggs after the run, when the protein would have done me the most good, and skipped the sugary cereal. Oh well, tomorrow is another day.
DW outdid herself last night for supper: roasted chicken breast, some kind of chicken flavored pasta boiled in chicken broth, fried cabbage, and kale. Pretty good and not my typical high calorie fare. No snacking later, so dinner must have done the job. A tall glass of unsweetened iced tea to make sure I would get up in the morning when the alarm goes off, and I was good to go.
I have a haircut appointment this evening. I use to make them on Saturday mornings, but it disrupts my Saturdays too much to continue that practice. I like to sleep in to where I do my long run in the daylight (usually takes 1 1/2 to 2 hours), then get a little lazy and have a cup of coffee, breakfast and read the Saturday ads. After that, it's off to the rain locker (shower), and then see whatever the day will bring. By then, it's almost 10 o'clock already.
Well, anyway, I've got to get back to work and make myself worthy of that yacht that I know they are going to give me for retirement. Oh shucks, time to wake up from this dream. Well, anyway, hope everyone has a wonderful day today. Toodles!

If they give yachts for retirement .. sign me up. It's funny how those little things like haircuts do cut into our play time - good on you for changing it. It's also interesting how the truly healthy food will leave you craving less, isn't it? Sashimi last night for me - did the same.

Is retirement in the near future? I'm impressed with the running. Seems like everyone is running. I only run away from things or to a huge pile of $$$$$

Yeah, I don't think the secret to retirement is how much money we have; I think it's more about being debt free. Don't get me wrong, the money helps, but if we are in debt, and have bad spending habits, I doubt any of us would ever be ready for retirement. I have been very blessed to where I don't buy anything on credit anymore, and I don't owe anyone anything - except for the utilities. Doesn't mean I'm ready for retirement, just means I'm not a slave to working.

I wish my house was paid for. Then I would retire.
