6 Miles – Today I got out early and saw a big ol’ raccoon on my run That is not a common site around here. I was kinda scared of him(her?) because he was so BIG! Luckily, he was more scared of me and scurried into a sewer drain when he saw me coming.

When the BF and I went to Costa Rica we were almost ambushed by a huge family of raccoons. We were eating on the beach and they ran up to us to get to the food. We tried to scare them away, but they were fearless! A beach/park ranger ran over to help us. He instructed us to throw sand at them. He was shouting, ”More, keep throwing!” So, picture 3 adults wildly throwing sand at a racoon family until they finally gave up and went away. We probably looked crazy, but I guess the animals get very assertive because they know they can get food from tourists. Human food is not good for them and you should never feed wild animals!!! No matter how cute they are

This isn’t a raccoon (obvi) it’s a Coati, another very friendly animal we met in Costa Rica. They are from the raccoon family, but a little scarier.I love this pic & don’t have pics of a racoon so here ya go…

I was very happy to find 0% Fage at Costco yesterday. This huge container was only $6.99. Not too shabby huh? I know different areas have different selections, so this may or may not be available near you, but I know greek yogurt is often hard to find and more expensive than other yogurts so I thought I’d pass along this find. Now all I need is a bucket of granola and I’m set

I drink a lot of water. No, really a lot. The fiance always jokes that waiters/waitresses must think I have a problem because they have to fill up my water glass so many times during one meal

Anyways, I haven’t jumped on the reusable water bottle band wagon because I always have a 1.5L bottle with me, anything smaller is just a waste of my time. I did re-use those bottles for as long as I could until they were falling apart so I wasn’t wasteful. Seriously, I would hold on to one of those TJ’s plastic water bottles for way past their prime, which isn’t good for you I know.

This weekend at REII finally found a reusable water bottle big enough for me.This sucker holds 48 ounces, which is smaller than I’m used to but saving the world a little is worth filling it up a few extra times a day If this sucker is too big for your needs you’ll be happy to find a great selection of much cuter waterbottles that are smaller.

I did 3.5 miles today to take it a little easy I also did a 45 minute walk after work, this gives me great time to think – there’s a lot going on right now!

I am hoping to make it to yoga on Friday because I feel super anxious and tight. I have 1yogadownload on my computer so maybe I will do that tomorrow.
