Happy Friday!!!!!!
Todays running tip. This is actually a good idea the way they do this, especially since i dont have any ice packs.
Found this on pintrest and i’m pretty stoked with how it turned out.
I got compliments on my hair today.
She will chew anything.
Half marathon training starts in earnest next week!
I ordered some seeds!!
Next month i will start the indoor sow.
Here are the seeds I’ve boughten so far
I can’t wait to see if this corn turns out!!!
Today was a pretty good day overall. I got up and made it to spin class today whichwas awesome and totally killed me.
Started off really well this morning!!
I start half marathon training next week!!! I need to do a post about all my planned races.
When i dont walk for an hour a red bar appears and my garmin buzzes at me.
Dinner was homemade pizza!!! Though i ate 1 more slice than i should have lol.
Yay i hit my goal!!!!
And i figured out the calories. That is how many calories i have burned all day, including just living, breathing, and body function.
Ok sleep time for me!
Have you ever made homemade pizza?
Do you sleep in silence, with music, with TV or what?
I do tv with the light dimmed or music.
Happy hump day!!! We are more than half way done with the week!!!
Was at the gym at 5am for a swim session.
Enjoyed a bagel from Starbucks for 2nd breakfast (i had a protien bar before my workout). I threw away 1/4 of the bagel before I even started eating it. I never need the whole thing to be full but i always eat the whole thing which is just empty calories.
Running calendar
I ran out of CoQ10 over a week ago and just had more delivered!
Yay my Garmin came!!! I love it already and can’t wait to see how it does in spin class tomorrow!
Already walked a few steps! Though i need to figure out the calories cause thats so not right.
Loving my triathlete journal. It keeps me honest and i can really watch and conpare my workouts and patterns.
How was your Wednesday?
How have your workouts been?
Do you journal?
Howdy!!!!
How is your week going? Mine has been a whirlwind!
Yesterday my ex lost his dog that he has had for 10 years. I kept him company and tried to cheer him up and be there for him. Irregardless i care about him and don’t want him to he in pain.
In other stuff
Yea i am watching this season…..at least so far.
I found both these books on Amazon for a PENNY!!!! Even with shipping they were only $4/each.
I ordered the Garmin vivoactive!!! It should arrive tomorrow. Huge shoutout to my aunt who helped me pay for half of it as a late Christmas/early birthday gift. THANK YOU!!!!!!
Pasta is a cheap staple for me lately.
And with that it is sleep time for me. I only got 4 hours of sleep last night. Yes i somehow still got my butt up and went to the gym at 5am this morning. And have a 5am swim appt tomorrow.
Good night!!!!!
Monday- run 3 miles
Now Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday aren’t locked into a plan yet. I do know 1 day i will have a strength training session, 1 day i will have a training session in the pool and if my trainer and i can work i schedule out i will hopefully have either Tuesday or Thursday morning free so i can go to a spin class before work.
I need to make up for the lack of weekend workouts.
Friday- OFF
Saturday- spin class amd run around the dog park with Artemis.
Sunday-Yoga and run 3 miles.
How about you????
Well today was noty best day ever. I got up still pissed off from the night before so i had no desire to go to yoga at the gym (though of course that is all the more reason i should have) i did the few errands that were pretty necessary like 2 loads of laundry since clean sheets and clothes are sort of a must and I went grocery shopping so i wouldn’t sabbatoge my week before it even started but other than that it was a shitty day.
I went on my coffee date, which wasn’t horrible or anything but i left it so depressed. I got in my car and just wanted to cry. Dating is just making me miss my ex so much. At this point i don’t want anyone else.
I texted my ex because we had mentioned getting coffee when his work slowed down and i needed to know if that was actually an option or just something he said. I would never really be able to move on if even a tiny percentage of me was thinking it was a possibility. We are going to make plans to meet for coffee this week one day after work.
Truthfully I don’t know whether to be happy or sad about this. It could turn out amazing or i could get my already broken heart shattered into a million pieces.
I guess we will see.
Back to work tomorrow.
How was your weekend?
Any advice for me in this dating conundrum?
Hi!
Yesterday’s inspirational quote.
Friday night the roommates and i enjoyed a movie-o-thon
A simple outfit for my lunch date today.
Then took the dogs to the dog park for a little run around. I need to start doing that at least once every weekend. It’s good for her to get some of that energy out since we aren’t running outside much in the cold weather.
My pink hair didn’t really turn out pink. It lightened it and gave it a slight pink undertone but mostly it just made it more strawberry. I would call it a fail lol. I will have to go a darker more dramatic color next time i try.
Went bowling tonight with the friend of a roommate…….we had 2 lanes going, 3 of us on one and 4 on the other. After 1 game 1 person left so it was 3 and 3. Well after the second game the teams swapped me without asking or evem telling me. Not a big deal in the grand scheme of life but i just found it so rude and offensive. I got so pissed. I am an aries and a very passionate person, i am usually pretty good and staying calm but this just really pissed me off. I was done, i saw red. I sped us through the last game and told my roommates to get their butts in gear or i was leaving them. I was livid. Yes when back at home and slowly calming down i am seeing that it wasn’t that big of a deal but i still know i do not ever need to interact with that girl again.
How was your Saturday?
Finally Friday!!!! I’m free again, got my motor runnin for a wild weekend. (from a song)
This week has just dragged and dragged. I feel like i have had no energy and no desire to work. I have felt thoroughly unproductive.
Thursday morning i was up at that time in the morning. Got my swim workout done which was nice but man is that early.
I did Pretty good with my food today which made me happy. I had 1 snickernoodle cookie but i threw away 7-8 cookies.
Yay me!!! I bought cookie dough from someone at work who’s grandkids were doing some fundraiser. Now i am trying to get rid of them without killing my waistline. I hate to throw food away but yea.
So the farming Friday part! I am going to grow some of my own food this year, yep even in a duplex with 2 other girls.
I am going to put 2-3 pots on my deck and hope it holds along with trying to find a few places around our yard that i can container plant. So far i have 2 different kinds of heirloom tomato seeds, heirloom sweet pepper seeds, organic sugar snap pea seeds and container corn seeds, thats right this corn was designed to be planted in a container! How awesome is that!!!!
More to come soon!
How has your week been?
And another day has come and gone. Once again work just dragged today. It is slowing down after the holidays and we got spolied with two 3day weekends in a row and are paying the price now.
Today was a day off for my from working out and i LOVED it. I was a couch potato and felt no guilt whatsoever. Now it’s 8:45pm and i am about to pass out to get up for my 5am swim session.
My delicious lunch!! They are veggie ribblets, which i know doesn’t sound very appetizing but they are super awesome!
2nd lunch….. Lol the hunger hit and i made a delicious but un-nutritious choice.
The color i am going to dye my hair this weekend…..yes its pink 
My view while journaling……don’t those eyes look awesome with the flash?
One of my goals this year is to journal everyday….so far so good lol.
I write in my triathlete training log, then journal then do a sudoku puzzle
Not a bad way to end the night……
Sweet dreams!!!!!!!
What is your nightly routine?
Happy Wednesday!!!
Work yesterday dragged allllll day! It sucked!!!
I made myself a delicious beans, rice and cheese burriot with lettuce.
Water and coffee. The staples of my life.
My trainer kicked my butt last night!!!! I knocked out hard last night. Great nights sleep.
My food choices were mostly good lol. I ate a bag of chili cheese Fritos which didn’t sit well mid workout but thankfully i kept my cookies down….or my Fritos lol.
How was your Tuesday?
