Weekend Wrap-up

by Ariana Peters, posted in Uncategorized

Noooooo tomorrow is Monday!!! It’s back to work. Who came up with this 5 day work week, 2 day weekend thing? What genius decided that? They should be tarred and feathered……and stoned.

Ok rant over.

Today really wasn’t too exciting lol. After having been out a lot yesterday i stayed in and ready today…..all day….it was wonderful.

After 10 years i think i am going to have to replace my duvet couver soon……thats a duvet cover right?
Letting Artemis sleep on the bed i am sure hadn’t helped.

So i had been talking to 2 guys and have now let them both go lol. Dating today is a sad state of affairs. 1 of them hadn’t wanted me to date anyone else even though we hadn’t even been on an official date yet and the other one hadn’t read a book since high school and had never been in a Barnes and Noble………….yea no. I am a book fiend so that did it right there but there was so much more.
I am now going to take a little hiatus from dating. At least a week, probably 2 or more.

I didn’t work out this weekend because my stomach is still bugging me. I have been taking 1-2 probiotic pills a day which is sort of controlling it but i don’t feel like its ridding my body of it just yet.
Will it never end???!!!

That is it for my exciting weekend.

How was your weekend?

Shopping Saturday

by Ariana Peters, posted in Uncategorized

Hi!!!

I slept in this morning. Took it easy on my body so it can fight off whatever is now going around.

I met a friend at the mall and we did some shopping. We both did pretty well as far as bang for our buck (suddenly wondering where that saying came from…….)

Got home and took Artemis to the dog park

image

I didn’t chase her as much as i normally do but she still got a little energy out.

Then i read for a little bit and met  a date for coffee…….oy. Tonight pretty much made me want to give up on dating. I won’t go into all the details but yea. I wonder if i will ever find someone.

I think it might be time to take a little dating break. I’ll keep you posted.

How was your Saturday?

TGIF

Yay Happy Friday!!!!!

Well there is some kind of GI thing going around so i left work at 4 and went home to relax and tale probiotics.

This means that once again i will miss my race and have to run my 5k at home again.

To help the day pass i listened to some podcasts.

I am still obsessed with the serial podcase.

I also started listening to the criminal podcasts.

Just signed up for StixFix!!

I can’t wait to get my first stixfix box!!!!

So this weekend i need to run a 5k, take Artemis to the dog park and rest read. What are your plans?

Well off to bed, i need the rest.

Good Morning!!!!!!

I spent most of the weekend relaxing and feeling down about my ex who i hung out with Friday night. But i got over it. I spent the weekend on the couch relaxing and bindged on scandal, i am now halfway through season 3.

image

I opened one of my small coffee samples i bought from Hawaii to try this weekend……freaking delicious!!!!!

image

I hung some fun motivational quotes in my cubicle to keep motivation all day long

image

image

I will continue to add to it.

Tuesday i had a good strength workout and i am a little sore today. This morning i did my swim workout, i am sure as the day goes on i will get more sore hahaha.

Not all the way awake……have a happy hump day!!

Book Review**A Glimpse of Evil

Here is super fun series that is a very easy read. You don’t even have to read them in order if you don’t want to. I tend to just grab whatever one sounds like i haven’t read it. I think initially i read the 2nd or 3rd one first.

It is a cute story about a psychic who helps the policed or her friend who is a private eye solve cases. She gets herself in some dangerous situations along the way.

A great beach read or something to read between intense books.  

Hawaii day 5 and heading home

by Ariana Peters, posted in Uncategorized

By day 5 i needed to relax so while the girls went out i thoroughly enjoyed having the condo to myself and reading pretty much all day.

image

image

I took a break from reading to go for a run on the lovely overcast day with some drizzle coming down.

image

And yes when i say lovely, i mean lovely. The drizzling helped a bit with the temperature.
Though the humiditing mixed with the drizzling led to me dripping sweat.

image

A lot of it.

After running i enjoyed a delicious simple lunch

image

image

Then i contined to read for the rest of the day until the girls got back and we all went to dinner at Duke’s. I had Ahmazing fish tacos!!!

Today was pretty much all traveling. A cab picked me up at 9:45. It took me an hour to get through security, Hawaii’s airport is packed.

Then i spent 5 hours in a plan then a $50 cab ride later i was sitting on my porch waiting for my roommates dad to let me in with the spare key since i somehow didn’t pack mine.

And now i am finally in my own bed so excited to go to sleep.

Goodnight!

How was your weekend?

Hawaii day 4

by Ariana Peters, posted in Uncategorized

We got up sort of early again and hit Pearl Harbor.

image

It was definitely a moving experience

image

image

image

My souvenir was a book 😌
After Pearl Harbor we went to a local coffee farm.

image

image

image

They had soooo many different coffee flavors it was insane!! Yes i bought several samples lol

image

After coffee was had it was time to see where the coffee came from!

image

image

First comes the flour

image

Then green berries

image

Then red ‘cherries’

After the coffee farm it was Luau time!!

image

image

The pig.

The dancing and entertainment was great but i have to admit the food was lacking for me. Being as i am not eating meat they had 1 fish option and it left a lot to be desired in my opinion. But it was still a great night!

Now for a dilemma, i feel like we have been going going going since we got here, which i understand and enjoy, you want to get in everything you can while you are here. On the other hand to me part of a vacation is taking some time to relax from our hectic everyday lives amd i feel like we haven’t done that and don’t plan to.

Tomorrow is my last full day in Hawaii and the plan for the girls is hitting up a macadamian nut farm, possibly snorkelling then hanging out at a beach and maybe surfing. Those things could be fun but are nothing that i am dying to do. So do i stay at the condo tomorrow and relax or go out with them?

Part of me feels like if i don’t go out with them i am wasting the day but i also feel like I’m going to be exhausted for work and life when i get back if i don’t take the time to rest. Desicions, decisions.

What would you do?

What does your perfect vacation look like?
