Elianna and I left around 7:10 in the morning. We dropped my son at the LuHigh bus stop in town and went to Harvest Market to find some coffee and breakfast. They didn’t really have anything that looked good, was healthy, and was easy to grab. She ordered a smoothie and I asked for a small black coffee. I can drink regular coffee now without it doing whatever it used to do to my nerves. I still limit myself to only a few cups a week.

We ended up stopping by McDonalds for oatmeal. I’m on the second day of my walking 30-minutes a day plan. I just need to start somewhere and be consistent with something, and especially where we live, walking is such a readily accessible form of exercise. On the way out of Illinois we swung by Hannibal to pick up Miles. He originally wasn’t able to come but his soccer game in Indiana was cancelled due to lack of refs.

I only drove about halfway and then they took over. For lunch we found a Hyvee where there were plenty of options that weren’t fast food. For supper we ate at a regular bar and grill that we’d never been to before in Seward. Elianna and I walked back to the dorm and the boys drove. We walked around campus for a short time and then lounged a bit in the campus center. The boys went back to the dorm and she and I to our room.
