Bright and early yesterday morning, Jordan and I were supposed to drive to Indy for our first pre-marital counseling session. As part of our preparation for getting married in the church, we are required to see a marriage therapist. I was actually looking forward to it, and had planned to use to today’s blog post to write about how it went, but we had a change of plans.
While that might not look like a lot of snow, underneath it lies a sheet of ice.
Most of the roads weren’t plowed or salted, so we rescheduled our appointment, and yesterday turned into the laziest day I’ve had in months. I loved every minute of it.
Since we were both already up and ready to go at 7:30am, we made the less-than-a-mile trip to Elegance, a restaurant known for its 65 and older crowd. But the secret is, they have really good breakfast.
I had the Mediterranean scramble with home fries, green pepper, feta cheese and egg whites, with pancakes on the side. They are extra generous with their portions, so I tackled about half of that, and then called it a day.
After breakfast, Jordan dropped me off at home so I could get some rest. We didn’t want to travel anywhere else, and I was exhausted from getting up so early.
I did some laundry, took a 2 hour nap, and watched TV in bed.
I kept my lazy theme going when it came time for lunch, eating it in bed, with a side of ‘Bethenny Ever After.’ Since I had a big breakfast, I kept lunch light with a bowl of strawberries, and my new favorite Chobani flavor- blood red orange- with some Grape-Nuts mixed in.
After lunch, bridal magazines were read.
My cousin gave me all of her bridal magazines when we visited a couple of weekends ago, and I’m slowly working through the stack.
Around 5:00pm (sad, I know), I finally rolled myself out of bed for weights and cardio with Jillian Michaels. The rest of the evening was spent eating pizza and watching TV with my family.
Last night, I went to bed so thankful for the change in plans. My body has been craving rest, and I finally got the rest I needed. I don’t know what’s in store for today, but after church, it looks like it might be another relaxing day. And I am not complaining

Do you ever eat in bed?
How do you spend a lazy day?
That sounds like a perfect day! I love going to places like Perkins for a huge, homestyle breakfast of pancakes!
Nothing like TV in bed all day!
Lol sounds very relaxing, and I love Bethany Ever After! Guilty pleasure.
That sounds close to MY day yesterday!! I was not up to doing anything productive, so I sat and watched TV most of the day! Glad you got some time to relax.
I’m glad that you did too!
Sounds like my Thursday
I called in sick to work and ending up sleeping until noon, then I moved to the couch to spend some quality time with my dvr. The only time I actually moved was to walk to the store to get some ice cream. Then it was back to the couch to watch movies 
Lazy days are the best! And that breakfast looks super yummy
Walking to the store to get ice cream sounds like a great excuse to get up to me

Oh no! At least you didnt get stuck in the snow!
Did you see that a new season of Bethenny ever After is coming on in February?? I’m so excited … I love that show!
Yes!! I can’t wait!
I saw on the news that Chicago was being hit with that snow and I actually wondered if Indiana was as well (my mom’s relatives live near Indianpolis). Then the snow came to PA as I was driving through (crazy). Anyways-sorry to hear you had to reschedule but certainly glad that it all worked out in the end.
I kinda hate to admit this, but eating in bed is one of my favorite things. For some reason food is just so much better there, and I also start craving foods really badly when I get into bed at night. The weather here has been nasty, so it’s the perfect time to have a lazy day! My “lazy day off” on friday included making soup, taking a long bath, and watching tv while organizing papers and tossing a bunch of things out!
ahh that pancake looks delicious. I love lazy days. I am so tempted to call in sick to work tomorrow but i actually need to go and do stuff and i have my 6 month review on tuesday. yikes. i just want it to be another weekend already!
I know, I feel the same way sometimes. Working full-time is not the same as being in school!
ugh i know. ive been having some serious nostalgia lately for college. i miss it terribly….:(
I eat in bed a lot…is that bad? Especially if I’m eating myself or if my boyfriend and I are having a “picnic” while watching one of our shows.
That’s not bad…to me, at least. I do the same thing

I love to eat breakfast in bed on the weekends! During the weekdays I will eat it on my bed too but not all tucked in. Lazy days – bed and couch watching movies!
