It’s Monday and Pete and I both logged in to work. I feel like I’ve gotten a lot done and it’s only 9am. The instant coffee I found is tasty! It feels like such a good “emergency” coffee option.
We ran 2 miles today. It was better than expected! Running at altitude has never been easy, and my heart rate stayed pretty normal so I was happy.
After the run we picked up pitas and went to the gallery for lunch. I ordered the teriyaki tofu. Lately kiddo has been asking about how we get chicken and explaining killing animals makes me realize how far removed from the process we are. On the drive here we saw a few feed lots which is incredibly depressing. The days we passed through were in the 90s and there is zero shade there. Other open fields we passed had cows all huddled in the shade of whatever was there, which wasn’t much. So seeing that has made me want to try to be more mindful of what we eat.
We had a nice pasta dinner with family tonight. There was lots of laughing and storytelling.
