Saturday in Gaithersburg

We spent yesterday on a long drive.

Sharon and I were at the gym at 5:30 and I got in a 2.6 mile run.

We left the house at 7:20 AM, drove to Earthfare to get breakfast and then got back in the car and started the long drive to Gaithersburg. I would never have eaten this otherwise but had a bagel, egg, cheese and bacon. I know. Not diet food.

We snacked in the car as we drove. I had a turkey sandwich on a good bread with mustard, an apple and a cookie. I know. Not diet food. Our last stop was about 7 hours into our trip where I had a frappacino. I know. Not diet food.

We traveled for a bas mitzvah from a cousin in my wife's family and on Friday, everything centered on bringing the family back together after a lengthy separation. I had seen anyone since we moved from the New York area so it was sweet walking in and seeing how much the kids had grown and how they had changed.

We talked and ate. I tried to act in moderation. Succeeded in some places and failed in one.

Today, we will have breakfast in the hotel and then head to temple for the service. Lunch will be another spread and dinner will be a formal party.

I won't go crazy but will eat modestly during the day.

And we went for a walk this morning early before sunrise.
