Things I Love Thursday

Does she need an explanation? I didn’t think so.  Ignore the mess. This is an old pic.  She helped me clean out my closet… and in the process, I thought putting one of my shirts on her would be a brilliant idea. She loved it, too.

Zoey is doing well… great, actually! We brought her home during lunch.  She is such a happy and resilient pup.

Sushi.  Last night Seth and I had an impromptu date night. Since we didn’t have the pup, we thought it would be the perfect time to go out.

Sugar-free white chocolate almond bark.  After dinner, we hit the mall… One of our favorites is the candy shop! Yummies!

 

Shopping!  Even better… Killer deals!  Yep. We stopped at Old Navy while at the mall.  I got  a cardigan, two rompers, a henley tank and a t-shirt dress for $14.95 out of pocket. BOO-YAH!  I gave Seth my $10 rewards card, and he picked out three pairs of flip-flops (who does that?) and a $0.97 long sleeve collared shirt.  His total came to $10 even, so the rewards card took care of it. Pretty sweet.

I admit, I have been shopping a bit too much lately. I need to slow my roll. Mmmmm. Rolls.

My lunch.  Don’t judge.

 

What are you loving right now?

Sometimes

Sometimes you wake up with a splitting headache and other than showering, you do absolutely nothing to get ready for work.

Sometimes it’s so freaking cold outside that you have your heart set on fuzzy socks and shearling boots.

Sometimes those shearling boots are nowhere to be found and you end up going to work looking like this:

Sometimes I can blame a headache on such fashion faux pas.

Sometimes reading other blogs make you think about your own life.

Sometimes other blogs make you dump your makeup bag to see what’s inside. (Thanks Mindy!)

 

P.S. That hand sanitizer stinks.

Sometimes lunchtime rolls around before I realize I haven’t even opened my makeup bag for the day.

Sometimes I realize how big of a slob I can be.

Sometimes all nasty protein muffins need are a bit of sugar-free syrup, butter spray and cinnamon.

Sometimes chicken and green beans taste better with dijon mustard.

Sometimes I do a quickie lunchtime grocery run for one thing (Dunkin Donuts strawberry coffee) and end up with a bazillion other things instead.

(The creamer was free w/ a coupon.)

Sometimes my plate overfloweth.

And sometimes I write “Sometimes” so much that I can’t remember if it is some times or sometimes.

Always be pure, simple and honest

I’m loving my Yogi tea messages today!! I usually forget to read them. I’m sure you’ll be seeing more of these! LOL!

So, lunch was a little ho-hum. Ran home (not literally!), swapped out my meals (piss poor planning on my behalf), scarfed down grilled chicken and roasted cauliflower, then munched on my beloved corn puffs on my way back to the office.

Recycled Picture from ... I don't remember when!

Plain puffed corn is one of my favorite snacks! I have to pre-portion it in advance, or I will just keep picking at the bag every time I’m in the kitchen… and I’m in the kitchen often!  I washed it all down with a lovely La Croix.  I’m trying to cut down on the diet sodie pawps.   All that artificial-ness. I am a frankenfood fan, but I want to start limiting consumption. Cherry Coke Zero seemed like the obvious start!

Later, I enjoyed lunch numero dos!  Left over grilled salmon, MORE roasted cauliflower, and some baby sweet peas.  This was GOOD!  Although, next time I will put the veggies in a separate container. I did not enjoy some of the fishy bites (that didn’t contain fish!).

Buried Sammons (harharhar)

I just finished up mo’ chicken, while drinking my pre-workout concoction w/ added BCAAs and glutamine, and trying to figure out a way to annihilate my chest.  Methinx some glute specialization should get thrown in there, too!

Time to get JACK3D!

 See ya after din-din!
