TGIF!!!!!!!

by Ariana Peters, posted in Uncategorized

Hi!!!! The weekend has arrived!!!

image

It was a long day, i broke down and got skittles, this is how i eat them. A small handful at a time and i sort each handful by color/flavor.

When i got home i did a bit of spanish.

image

image

I got some amazon deliveries.

image

I am listening to this right now while i read. It is natural sounds like the ocean, a steady rain, birds in the rainforest etc.

image

I got these for meditations but they are also just super peaceful.

image

Got this for my studying.

image

And this is what i am currently reading so look for a book review on it in a few weeks.

I know, it sounds like a seriously exciting night? How do i keep up with this hard partying at my age, well years of practice lol.

I have decided that i will adopt mama (the dog). My roommate has conveyed this to the owner and now we wait. But she now feels like my fur baby and i want her with me asap!!!! I will keep too posted.

What did your Friday night consist of?

Workouts?

Ooooooh i am stoked i made my first post surgery training appt!!!! Monday November 16th i will be working out upper body. I can’t wait!!!!

And i cant wait until mama and i can get out and do some runs/walks together!

Blue Apron week 3 meal 1 and big decisions

Happy Thursday and its almost the weekend!!!

Tonight i came home and did lesson 1 part 1 of rosetta stone Spanish then made my dinner.

image

I added some extra spiral noodles and a little bit of extra bottled pasta sauce that i had left in the fridge.

image

image

This meal was actually pretty easy to make and made a ton!!! Though its really light which is nice.

image

Oh i also added a little string cheese hahahahaha.
I ate a full helping, have lunch for tomorrrow and a lunch this weekend and still put 2 helpings worth in the freezer.  Woot woot 5 meals out of this dish.

After dinner i did lesson 1 part 2 or rosetta stone spanish.

So big decision…….remember that house guest we had that stole my heart, the black dog. Her owner needs a new home for her and has asked if i would like to adopt her.

I love animals and growing up my house always had pets but they were family pets and my parents always paid for everything this would be my first real pet that was completely my responsibility, though our house already has a dog, my roommates, so it wouldn’t be too big of a change. And we all help out and take the dogs out when we get home and such but she would be my dog and my responsibility. This animals well being would be my responsibility…..that is a huge undertaking and should not be entered into lightly.

On top of that this poor dog was severely misstreated for the first 2 years of her life before her current owner got her from the humane society so she is kind of skittish. But she is the sweetest thing ever…….and who are we kidding she has already stolen my heart……I believe i am getting a dog.

Any advice?

Random Wednesday Wonderings

by Ariana Peters, posted in Uncategorized

Hi everyone!!!!!

Today was a good but painful day.

I went into work for an hour because i am already looking at a tiny next paycheck due to my surgery.

I got to the surgens office about 30 min early which is pretty normal for me, then i realized i forgot a book to read

image

This is my face after the receptionist tells me the dr is running 10-15min behind schedule……..great 45 min of phone instagram surfing!!!!!! Woohoo (sarcasm)

Getting the stitches taken out actually didn’t hurt almost at all. I headed back to work then about and hour to and hour and a half later, it hit. The incision site got really sore and my lower back got sore and my body was just exhausted. I stuck it out at work but left an hour early. Now I’m at home on pain meds relaxing looking forward to an early night.

image

Sadly i think it’s time to throw away the roses my man got me after my surgery.

image

My halloween purchase that just arrived. I love this series!!!!

image

The zero tricker treaters means we have way too much candy left.

image

Blue apron week 2 meal 3. Korean bbq wings with a rice cake salad. Mom made the whole meal so this is the only pic i have……it was super yummy!!!! The rice cake salad was actually delicious but slighly weird.

And now a new week of meals starts!!!!!

My wonderful man made me dinner on Monday night and guess what he made me…….catfish piccatta with fettuccine!!! Hahahahaha! It was still delicious the 2nd time around.

We are more than half way tp Friday!!!!!!

How is your week going?

What is the last meal you cooked?

How are your workouts going?
I get to start working out again the week of the 15th!!!

The end of last week i was still recovering from my surgery and only working half days. One day i was going in at 12:30 so i made this grilled cheese sandwich for lunch for my mom and i.

20151029_105009 20151029_105657  The only change i made was that i added a little bit of raspberry balsamic vinegar to the salad dressing (i was out of oil).

I let my mom finish my salad because i was a little full and i don’t love arugula that much, but my mom loved it.

But a seriously delicious sandwich!! I will definitely be making this again!!
