Jogging My Memory

This morning was another rushed morning, it seems like Thursdays (and Tuesdays for that matter) always are.

I had a quick bowl of 2 servings of Barbara’s Shredded Spoonfuls and 1/2 cup unsweetened soymilk for breakfast.

The rest of my time this morning was spent making this salad for lunch.

It contained romaine lettuce, mushrooms, red peppers, cucumbers, 3/8 oz slivered almonds, 1 oz feta cheese, and 2 Tbs. Annie’s Lite Honey Mustard Dressing (yep almost identical to Wednesday’s lunch).

I ate 4 oz of grapes with my lunch and a few unpictured pretzels that I got from the Admin office – they love to feed us here at McG!

Between Contracts and Global Lawyering Skills, I ate this Clif Apple Cinnamon Z Bar.

When I got home I decided to suck it up and go for my first post half marathon run. I did 2.05 miles in 17:58. I definitely psyched myself up a bit too much for it, and struggled a little as a result. My muscles are pretty much good to go, which I am grateful for!

After the short run I did a ton of stretching. Then I came inside and did some strength training for about 20 minutes.

I started with arms and did 3 sets (1st set 5 lb weights, 2nd and 3rd set 3 lb weights)

• 15 bicep curls (both arms at once)
• 15 overhead presses
• 15 tricep kickbacks (one arm at a time)
• 15 bent over rows
• 15 bends at the waist (arms at sides slightly in front of body, and back flat)

Then I did 2 hip exercises on all fours (I’m sure I looked ridiculous) I did 2 sets of 10 each of the 2 exercises.

Then I did 30 leg lifts on each side.

I was sweaty and very worn out by the end, I definitely need to do strength training more regularly : )

I showered then did a little homework.

Dinner was leftovers from Monday night’s pasta with homemade sauce made with garlic, diced tomatoes, red peppers, EVOO, balsamic vinegar, Italian Spices, and salt and pepper. I topped it with a healthy dose of freshly grated parmigiana reggiano. YUM!

I also poured myself a big glass of the rest of the Claude Val Rosé from Sunday.

I only drank about half the glass, and poured the rest out. It spent a day or so too many in the refrigerator…oh well.

I was still a little hungry about 30 mins later so I crunched on some Kashi TLC Cheddar Crackers (1 serving of them).

Dessert was 2 meringues and a package of Sour Skittles.

A great day of eat’s overall.

Legal Tidbit:

Many people misuse the term heir. The term heir refers to the recipient of real property (land or real estate) by intestate succession. Intestate succession occurs when a person dies without a will. The deceased person’s property is divided, usually among her closest living relatives.

What most people are talking about when they use the term heir is actually a devisee. A devisee is the recipient of real property (land or real estate) transferred by will.

The essential difference is in how the real property was transferred, by intestate succession or by will. I thought this was a really interesting point that my property professor brought up, and something you all might like to know!

I plan on running again tomorrow, and I only have 1 class (per usual). Then my parents are returning from their trip throughout NorCal. I can’t wait to hear about all their adventures (my parents do the coolest things, I swear!), and of course to enjoy another amazing meal with them tomorrow night.

Have a FABULOUS FRIDAY!
