Well fortunately the good outweighs the bad for the weekend - whole 30 is still going great, I got in lots of great walking and geocaching (55 found so far! YAY!), lots of bonding time with the boy puppy:

Got to see my son and his flatemate and play with their new pet snake, Lucifer.

I LOVE HIM!

So much so my son is going to find me my own pet snake!

Yes, I want my own pet snake. It was so relaxing to just be aware of this fragile creature, looping in and out through my fingers as I chatted with the guys. This is Lucifer!

His eye is cloudy because he is getting ready to shed his skin. Pretty cool.

So all in all, such a lovely weekend. Food went great this weekend, and in fact I have more been dealing with not hungry so why eat? Which I know I need to get enough food. One can't just not eat, right.

Anyway, now for the bad:

glass

Yes. That is my window, held together by the film over it. If not for that it would've been an even more horrible mess. My purse which was stuck under the seat out of sight (though my windows are so darkly tinted you really can't see in anyway) was stolen. Credit card, debit cards, insurance card, driver's license, Maddox's brand-new Geodog tag (grrrrr) and just the worse, my favorite Brighton purse that I've had forEVER. Like... nine years. Those purses just do not die. Now I have no purse at all because I never buy new ones, because I had this one. Dammit!

So anyway. I was at the park, innocently walking Maddox for almost two hours (it was that gorgeous out!) and then we come back to that. *SHAKES FIST*

I had to file a police report, and cancel the cards, but thankfully I have a passport so was able to get to the bank and get a temporary debit card.

So, onward and upward! I am about to make some soup for the week, and it will be an odd one. Zucchini soup. Yes. Weird huh. We will see how this goes. Otherwise, other than getting another couple miles in this morning, I have been quite happily lazy. Somehow it seems less awful to be lazy during the day after getting a good walk in in the morning. No guilt!

Back to my new addiction - Great British Bake Off, Great Irish Bake off and Great Australian Bake Off! There is an American one too! I am up-to-date on the British and Irish ones, currently watching the VERY peppy Australian one. :) So much fun to see the different countries' approaches to baking.

I hate baking, myself, and don't like rich desserts so much (but bread, ooohhhh) but I love these shows.

:) (oh and headaches are gone, YAY!)

That is awful about the break-in. One feels so violated.

Yeah especially in this neighborhood, one of the wealthiest in my city, in the nicest park in the city. Crazy!!!!

Oh well. I got to bank before any damage could be done, and my new credit card I'd not yet activated and one needs the social security number for that, ha ha, I never carry my SS card. So that I have!!! Which is good as I need that to get my replacement driver's license. So complicated. Thank goodness for the passport.

What a lousy thing to come back to after a good day in the park, but it's good to hear how you've categorized it and taken care of everything already so you could focus on all the good.

Yay for headaches gone.

Have a lovely day.

I'm so sorry about the break in to your car. I'm only glad you could prevent any further damage - but the hassle of going through it alone is just such an unnecessary annoyance.

*hugs*

I have a snake, 12 year old corn snake. VERY low maintenance. :)

I'm sorry to hear about the break-in. That really sucks. :( I remember how I felt when our apartment was broken into. I had to leave the lights on in the new apartment whenever I went anywhere because of paranoia.
