This was an awesome week for me! I had a pretty good weekend, as well.


Mushroom and cheese omelete with a side of bacon and coffee. Yum!

Yesterday morning, my husband and I woke up early and made ourselves a delicious, yet healthy, breakfast. We got a lot of work done during the day, and relaxed the entire evening. As for today, I woke up early again and gave W4D1 another shot (I'll blog more about that tomorrow!); we colored easter eggs with my in-laws and bought all of our groceries for this upcoming week. It's 4:30 p.m. right now, and all of my errands are finished for the day. I am feeling great, and I plan on enjoying the rest of my evening curled up on the couch while watching netflix. Enjoy the rest of your night, everyone!

Sometimes, I feel guilty for relaxing on the couch for an evening. I only do this 1-2 times per week, sometimes not even that much. Am I the only one who feel pangs of guilt when relaxing on the couch?
