Day Twenty-One: "Rest" Day

Saturday--official rest day, though I spent the day on my feet. I went to the farmers market, made lunch, then spent the afternoon being farm wife-ish--processing apples and basil. I have walked very little, done no dedicated exercise other than today's abs challenge, and yet I am totally worn out from all the "rest."

I am also, as I write this, giving in to a massive chocolate craving. I am having some dark chocolate covered blueberries--I checked first to make sure it's not going to drive me over the caloric limits I have given myself, and I am still good. But it still feels so odd to be eating chocolate--I don't even feel all that guilty... :-)
