Exhaustion and sleeping in

August 8, 2011

So I was supposed to race this morning. But this past week as I realized, adjusting from a 1-10p schedule last week T-Th, then 11-8 Fri and 8-5 on Saturday to straight 8-5p M-S this week because I grabbed an extra shift of OT left me exhausted. Saturday night we had gone to Vapiano’s in [...]

Perfect weekend

July 18, 2011

There are some weekends when you just end it with a sense of perfection. You see, Saturday is still technically my Friday. So after work, on the perfect Friday I met up with the girls at Las Placitas for a much needed girls night. That ultimately involved one too many margaritas and a round of [...]

Soyaki!

June 28, 2011

Last night for dinner I made up a quick stir fry. We’re going out of town this weekend, and plans fell through last night with both of us (hubs was supposed to meet some old coworkers and I was supposed to meet up with my gal pal M from CT who was in town) so [...]

A very Maryland weekend

June 27, 2011

A four mile run. Sitting by the pool. Crabs at Canter’s. Enjoy a nice Saturday night on the deck at Coconut Joe’s. It really was the perfect weekend. Saturday for the most part was kind of m’eh. Hub’s friend came down to the area and hung out with us. We were kind of not exciting [...]

Yo-yo-yogurt?

May 12, 2011

I’ve never liked yogurt. Or cottage cheese. My sister and mom loved it growing up. Especially cottage cheese. Hubs loves yogurt and has some almost every day. Something about the textures. But I’ve read so many health benefits about yogurt. More yogurt than cottage cheese – the curdled look of cottage cheese never did anything [...]

Tough Day

April 9, 2011

Yesterday started out really tough. We brought Ellie to her new foster play care. They were super nice, and it looks like a nice place – which will be good for her. She thrives in a play care environment, so I know we did the right thing for all of us. It’s just, as I’ve [...]

Eating In Day 2

January 4, 2011

Day two of eat in month (which may end up as a week or two but I’m going as long as I can!) was a success! Never mind the fact that I completely forgot to eat breakfast because I was too concerned with taking care of credit cards – (goal #2 of 2011, pay off [...]

Diets Don’t Work

September 2, 2010

So I didn’t cleanse this week as I had planned. Not because I didn’t want to, mostly because hubs and I just don’t have the money to spend on a ton of ingredients since well, we’re really starting to feel the implications of him not having a job these days. We’re skidding by financially and [...]

Veggie Delight

July 12, 2010

I keep telling my pals I’d be a vegetarian if I wasn’t married to a steak and potatoes kind of dude. Thankfully, that steak and potatoes kind of dude is willing to try anything once and anything that I put in front of him. So I was pretty excited to try the Tempeh Sloppy Joe’s [...]

Eating Better

February 23, 2010

I’ve been on a mission, it’s been slow going, but it’s a mission no less. One of my new years resolutions was to lose about 20 lbs. Granted, I know I won’t lose much weight in marathon training time (like, now) but I’m more working on getting in good shape. After all, I just bought [...]
