Year 2, Day 260: Home at Last

It was great to wake up at home. I didn't want to be anywhere else in the world (except possibly, at the gym, working off the fried pickles and beer). I made breakfast for the kids, and later that day turkey crumble for dinner. It was an all day love fest. That's what the first day home should be like, right?

Breakfast
Kashi Go Lean
Heritage Flakes
Banana
Blueberries
Unsweetened Soy Milk
Green Tea

Lunch:
Hamburger
Salad

Snack
Almonds/Cashews
4 oz 50% Jalapeno Cheddar

Dinner
Turkey Crumble
Romaine Lettuce

I tried to keep it light because I was feeling terribly guilty and heavy from three days of constant snacking, pork consumption and despite the advertised trust-building, rope-climbing, very little in the way of physical activity. Towards the end of the day, Ruby determined that it was a hoot and a holler for her to drive her little toy-car into a pile of leaves. Then a friend from the neighborhood showed up and all of a sudden every kid was lining up to take a ride in this little toy car (really like a two-year old's scoot-mobile) to flip into a big pile of leaves. I continued to rake endless piles of leaves in order to create a safety zone, but it was hard to keep up.
