Every so often on a journey, you come across the bright yellow sign that says Detour. What do you do in a detour? Do you panic because you are on a road that you are not familiar with or do you learn the route and learn the way to go so you know what to do the next time you come up on this detour?
This past weekend was one of those detour moments for me. It was a CRAZY Saturday and very full day on Sunday! Totally got off on a new road! On Saturday, we started the day off going to a movie premier, then had to get things ready for a homecoming football game and then off to a cookout with friends on a farm. Yes, when I went to the grocery store to get the things needed for said events. Then as we proceeded to go to all of these places...we packed a cooler to go to the cookout and took it to the football game. Once we got to the cookout, I realized that I left my turkey hot dogs in the fridge. I was very hungry at the cookout so yep...at two bratwursts! Although they were good, there were also some very yummy foods there. So it wasn't a good evening food wise...but lessons learned...don't pack so much in a day that you can't take the time to make sure you get the things that you need to be successful!
On Sunday we had friends over for a birthday celebration! Had a great menu planned...except for the appetizers! One of our friends brought those! They were great and with dinner being delayed a bit, with an unexpected "on call" moment. So we munched on appetizers until dinner time. It was a great day celebrating with friends...just not so good on this detour journey!
So on Monday....started back on the right road! Made up a little bit of the gain due to the foods that were consumed. And looking forward to keep on the right road!!!
Just remember...when a detour comes along...don't panic...remain calm and stay focused on the journey!!!
Keep on keeping on!
