Well, no run today. I woke up with a sore throat so decided not to risk it. It's that strange, acid-y feeling you get in the back of your throat right before you get really sick. Like something between a dryness and something being stuck back there. Not really sure how to explain it, but it sucks. I've been trying to drown it by drinking mimosas at night, instead of my usual glasses of champagne, but so far that hasn't worked. We'll see how I feel in the morning, and I'll try my run again.
My father and I drove up to Philly and back today to clean up my old apartment and pick up some furniture that wouldn't go up the stairs in my tiny new house. I really enjoyed spending some one on one time with him, and as a bonus I got some amazing chicken tacos at the Farmer's Market near my house. The tortillas were the kind where you could just taste the freshness - I loved them. I estimated them at 15 points, which seems way too high considering they had no cheese or sour cream on them, but I feel like it's better to be too high than too low.
For dinner, I had leftover BBQ from Hill Country, and then some Manner Hazlenut Wafers. I used to walk down to the corner store and buy those wafers, so they remind me of my childhood. I could eat a whole huge bag of them no problem, but I made myself stick to 4. 4 tiny wafers were three points! I'm glad I restrained myself. After a weekend of crazy eating, plus a lot of restorative mimosa drinking, I only have 12 points left until Thursday. Hoping I can stay within my points, it's always harder when I'm down here visiting my family, since they eat without thinking about calories.
