WHAT ARE YOUR WORKOUT PLANS THIS WEEK?
The rain managed to actually stay away most of the weekend which was lovely. It hit Saturday night and late today afternoon/evening.
Last night poor Artemis didnt feel too good. Her tummy was making all kinds of crazy sounds and she wasn’t hungry. She got better though thankfully and when i woke up her food was eaten and she has gotten better and better today.
My guess is she either ate something she shouldn’t have or just had a little upset tummy. Either way it just needed to work its way out of her system which it did today.
The roomies and i FINALLY took our tree down…….yes i mean Christmas tree lol. It only took us until March..not too bad right? Lol
On another but way worse roomie note, my roommates care got stolen out of our driveway last night?! I feel so bad for her. I am so thankful my car has an alarm and GPS so the cops can track it if anything ever happens. Knock on wood.
Other sad news i own almost 5k in medical bills from my surgery in October. Insurance denied my paying more because it was an out of network provider. Oy, this being an adult stuff rocks. Thankfully i can set up a payment plan.
In happier news…..
The tomato and pepper starters are exploding!!!
I am so excited!
Also i ran 4 miles today!!! And the 4 miles we outside!!!!
Artemis ran the first 1.5 miles with me then she got tired so i dropped her off at home. Shes getting over her tummy troubles so i didn’t want to push it.
So i workout a pretty good amount. These are the things that help keep me going. Along with pre-workout, protien and recovery but ill talk about that another day.
I also did a lot of reading this weekend which was glorius.
Do you take any suppliments?
What’s the weather like where you are?
If you have dogs, do they run with you?
I got up and went to spin this morning, yay me.
Enjoyed my recovery when i came back
Made an awesome Brie, pear and sage grilled cheese on whole grain sourdough
The rest of the day was spent watching tv and movies and reading
Everyone has to search through their 3 bags of books from Barnes and Noble to find the book they are looking for right?
Overall it was a pretty relaxing day.
Happy Friday!!! Like so many Americans i live for the weekends.
Today will be a short and sweet post.
Got up and took Artemis for a walk/jog before work. I think thats a really good time to walk her because there are less people out and about. I think as it continues to warm up we will be good running buddies.
I thought that was a good quote.
Reached my step goal! Woot Woot!
The tomatoes and peppers are doing awesome!!!!
I am so grateful for my sweet girl. She has cuddled with me many a night that i have cried or just needed some cuddles during this breakup and all the drama with it. I am sad again tonight and having her here is a great comfort.
Goodnight i hope you had a great Friday night!
Tomorrow is Friday!!!! Yay!!!!
I got my butt up and went to spin this morning
I was good and had fruit for breakfast
Now for the fun stuff……i got my first Stitch Fix box!!!!!
So in it were a pair of jeans that actually fit perfectly (i can barely do that in the store how did they manage it?) but i just bought myself 2 new pairs of jeans so i can’t justify keeping them.
2nd was this necklace
Which i like but would probably never wear (though i will to work tomorrow lol)
3rd was this top
I like the lace detailing on the sleeves but it does nothing for me so it will be going back.
4th was this top
Which does NOTHING for me
and 5th is this top
I actually really like this top but don’t know if it does anything for me. I am going to wear it tomorrow with the necklace, jeans and boots and see how i feel. This is the only thing i would consider keeping from this box.
I would love your opinion please?
Do you like this top on me?
Yes please be honest.
Hi!!!!!!!!! I thought today i would show you want my desk looks like, or more accurately the parts of my desk that are about me about very little about work hahaha.
Breakfast today-
I devoured my fruit today then went on to a salad
i am getting this feeling that it is going to be a bottomless stomach kind of day.
Some of us at work are doing the pushup challenge so we now have day 2 in the book
s!
I am now all caught up on the podcasts ‘Serial’ and ‘Criminal’ so i found some podcasts online and have started listening to ‘Here be Monsters’
There is always chapstick on my desk as i am a chapstick-a-holic.
A cute little minion to make me smile. An awesome co-worker got one for everyone in the department.
I keep my fortunes.
My runner’s calendar my roommate got me for!!!
For dry hands. Comes in handy after swim days especially.
Always have snacks in the door.
Gatorade to add some flavor to my water and ibuprofen.
A gift from a coworker from her organics to you box.
Coffee!!!! This is not a constant but pretty often.
Lunch.
Yep. I decorate my work calendar.

I am getting my first Stich Fix box this week!!!!! It is supposed to come Friday i think. Here is my referral code if you want to try it!!
Books 1-7 are out in this series so far. This is another one where i got sucked in to the first book by getting in free on my kindle. This is a cute series about time traveling back to the 1600s i believe to find your true love. It’s a fun light hearted read. I read the majority of this series during my Hawaii trip. It’s a romance series for sure.
Finally Friday I’m free again, i got my motor runnin for a wild weekend! -George Jones song
My weekend plans are rest, relaxation, workouts, my roommates casual birthday party and hopefully some reading.
Ok, who is ready to laugh at my stupidity.
So i am all about eating healthy (most of the time) and listening to your body and all that good stuff. After getting back from Hawaii i spent the week eating out, which was fine on my stomach but my wallet sure felt it lol. I didn’t eat fast food though, i got to go stuff from restaurants and things like that so i was still eating pretty whole foods. But after a week my wallet couldn’t really take that.
Week 2 back i did a little better, i got breakfast from starbucks or subway most days and had whole wheat pasta at home for dinner. Both not too bad but every day for lunch i was eating a frozen dinner.
 
 
These are the actual meals i have been eating, and i am in NO WAY bad mouthing them, for frozen dinners they are pretty delicious and pretty healthy. And i think that probably 1 a week maybe even 2 would be ok, but my body is revolting since i am eating them every day.
This finally clicked today becuase the beginning of the week i am fine, i eat pretty good over the weekend, then monday, tuesday, wednesday i am fine. Thursday afternoon the stomach problems start to hit midly, and by Friday morning i feel nausous and my stomach is not my friend. This has happened 2 weeks in a row.
So now instead of eating the Parmesan crusted fish dinner that i brought for lunch i am going to dig into my pocket book and go get thai food. i am going to have fresh simple shrimp salad rolls with a little peanut sauce for lunch and get some vegetable sweet and sour to have as an afternoon snack and finish for dinner.
This weekend i will be doing a whole mean plan and going shopping for fresh natural food to have next week.
So yes, trying to take the easy way out, bit me in the butt. You are welcome to laugh because it is my own fault. You think i would have learned this by now, but i guess not lol.
Here is to feeling better!!!!
When was the last time you took the easy way out?
Did it come back to bite you?
