R.I.P. sunglasses...

This has been a traumatic weekend for me. My friend Nate and I took a heck of a kayak trip on Saturday. We went from Wolverine to Indian River on the Sturgeon River, about a 4-hour trip. Of course, I always overestimate my kayaking skill, and I lost my sunglasses 5 minutes in trying to dodge a tree branch. Nate and I spent a few minutes looking (I also went back this morning to look for 15 minutes) but I finally convinced myself that it was too late.


After that fun time on Saturday, I was amped up to golf and bike today, until I rolled my ankle Saturday night just walking. I have always had bad ankles, and nothing is more frustrating than getting hurt the same way on a regular basis. I've been icing and elevating it since, so hopefully I'll be back to it tomorrow. 


In the meantime, I've been messing around with new meal ideas. I love the summer because there's a much greater selection of fresh fruits and vegetables (except my favorite, pomegranate, which apparently decided that summer is too mainstream and only shows up in October). I was cutting up a watermelon today and decided I would try making a watermelon-banana smoothie. DON'T DO THIS!!! It was disgusting. The separate ingredients are fantastic, but combined they are awful. 


Overall, the diet stayed on track this weekend. I wish I could have exercised more, but I'm glad that I skipped because of lack of mobility, not lack of motivation. I think it'll just make me appreciate a healthy ankle all the more! Have a good week everyone.
