ITS ALMOST FRIDAY!!!!!

HIYA!

I barely slept last night, but surprisingly I'm still kicking and its after 8! I woke up at 6 after finally falling asleep around 1:30ish. I got out of bed at 7 and checked my email and talked to my mom. I then made up a bowl of oats and some coffee for breakfast. I walked to work today since it was supposed to be toasty=50! It was a nice easy day in kiddies land at the morning flew by since we were outside for over a half hour. By lunch I wasn't very hungry but figured I might as well eat. I totally putzed out this morning (since I was on barely any sleep) and brought 1/2 a sweet potato instead of my cut up pear :( So lunch was the sweet potato and cottage cheese.. It tasted good but just wasn't what I wanted. At snacktime I had 3 handfuls of froot loops since I wasn't feeling too satified from lunch. I walked home after work to get ready for the gym and had about a cup of grapes since I was getting hungry!

I went to the gym and did 2 miles on the treadmill while reading a trashy mag and did some weights since my wrist is feeling a bit better :) I stopped off at the parents house quickly to pick up a few things and say hi. I came home showered and made up some din din. I didn't know what I was in the mood for, so after having 2 big forkfuls of cold baked ziti I decided on an Amy's burger with Laughing Cow Cheese, homemade ketchup which was very thick, some pickles and a few pita chips. Desert was a bowl of Cherry Jello and Cool Whip, I also may have had a chocolate chip cookie from mommy.. hehe I'm now sitting with Adam (he's doing good after his surgery! :-D) watching Survivor. I decided on going to Atlantic City with the girls this weekend so its should be a fun time! I plan on resting up good tomorrow for a LOOONG night Saturday ;)

Hope your Thursday flew by like mine did!!! See ya tomorrow.
Question:
Do you have any fun plans for the weekend?

Lazy Days....Well Sort Of...

Good Evening All!

Here's my recap of my day.....

I was up at 7 since I can NEVER sleep in on the weekends..I got up around 8 and made some coffee and tried to hold off on breakfast until Adam got up but I couldn't wait. I had my usual bowl of oats but for some reason they came out EXTRA CREAMY today! I am not complaining at all.. they were delish! I was full but had to finish em off cause they were that good! I went to the gym, as Adam was getting up lol and did 2 miles on the treadmill doing some intervals and some weights. I ran to my parents to pick some things up for my brother's Bowling party tomorrow night.. He is the only senior on the varsity team so my mom was "in charge" of the party.. I get to bowl with him, since neither of my parents bowl anymore.. Lucky me!! :-P I'll kick his butt! I came home showered and got ready to run out to do a few things.. We picked up some things at Walmart (I needed socks, Adam got some Gatorade) then we went to Big Lots (its right down the highway from Walmart) and Aldi just to looks around. We didn't find anything but it was fun to just walk around and look at the randomness.. We got home around 1:30 and I was STARVING! I had munched on some nuts and dried fruit before we left because I knew I would be hungry.. I had my yogurt parfait that I picked up at Wegman's yesterday.. I love these so much! I then had a few Doritos and jelly beans through out the afternoon ;) I did some reading today, mostly looking at the sale fliers and looking at the deals on new cars ;)

I cleaned up a bit and got some work done and vegged out for the rest of the afternoon until it ws time to throw my ziti in the oven. Boy was I glad I made up it last night so all I had to do was cook it tonight. We also had salad and some garlic bread with it, this totally hit the spot. I made it was WW penne and ff ricotta to make it a bit healthier. I had a small glass of Pinot Grigio with it since it was a nice dinner kinda night. For dessert I had (unpictured) a few chocolate covered honey roasted peanuts and some cherry jello with cool whip. I still have the garlic taste in my mouth from the bread!!! OPPPS I hope it goes away for work tomorrow! I think I'll be brushing my teeth again before bed! :-P


I hope everyone had a great weekend! I have a feeling it will be a late night tomorrow with bowling and all, but I'll try to do a recap! Toodles!

Holy Humpday!

Well my alarm woke me up this morning (I set my cell phone just in case). I got up and got ready and made up my usual bowl of oats and my travel mug of coffee. When I got to work I saw it was NUTS! I had more children today than yesterday, which is usually my heavy day! They were a bit wild so I was glad the rain held off for the morning so we could go OUT! At lunch I wasn't very hungry yet, those oats really fill me up! I ate anyway though since I had a ton of kids in my room resting. They really don't rest though, they just do everything in their power to drive me wacky... Lunch was the same as yesterday yogurt and an orange, these navel oranges are great :) I also had a few froot loops when I was putting out snack. I didn't get out of work until after 4 since there were a ton of kids still there. I snacked on some pretzels and almonds on my way out the door to the gym. There I did almost 2.25 miles and just wanted to get home! Adam had to work a 13 hour day today and he still isn't home.. poor guy.. so I was on my own tonight. I made up a grilled cheese on ww with a gallon of ketchup and some pita chips (ate a bunch before taking a pic) and a few Doritos. Adam has to finish these tasty things up!! lol I also had a few spoonfuls of his chili but no picture ;) I inhaled it! I got a few odds and ends done and snacked on some cherry sf jello with cool whip, a piece of my dad's chocolate may have snuck in before the camera also... ooppsThis is what happens when I have a Megan night.. lots of yummy eats! lol I'm off to watch some food network and read all your blogs! 2 more days until the weekend, have a great night :-D

2 More Days Until My Weekend!!!

Oh how I love short weeks!!! :) I woke up this morning not too hungry.. I made up a bowl of oats (the usual) and forced myself to eat it up since I didn't know how the morning would be. I made a cup of coffee to bring with me on my walk. The morning flew by and it was pretty dark and dingy out so I walked home to pick up my car just in case in started to rain before I got out of work. Lunch was a pear with cottage cheese and some pretzels, I still wasn't hungry and it took me a while to eat it. ME NOT HUNGRY... WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?!?!?LOL After work I was off to the gym for a quick 2 miles on the treadmill and a run to Kmart to pick up something for a certain someone for VDAY :)

I came home and checked my email and showered then made up some Garlic Shells by Lipton. These were my absolute favorite growing up, def not healthy but brings back good memories which is all that matters to me ;) We also had dad's home made chicken cordon bleu which was AMAZING! I went back for a little of both after I finished what was on my plate ;) FYI I tore into before the pic because it was held together with toothpicks and we were trying to find em ;)We stopped by the rent's after dinner and went to pick up a few things at A&P since they had grapes on sale !!! 99 cents a pound!! We came home and I was craving nuts so I had a few walnuts and some lime jello and cool whip... mmm Now its time to watch American Idol and be lazy with my sweetie! Hope Ya'll had a great day! I will try to blog tomorrow but I have another class for my CEU's so we will see how exhausted I am when I get home ;) toodles tigers!

MUST SLEEP!

UGH last night I could not sleep to save my life!! I was so tired and went to bed at 10ish. I tossed around until after midnight!!! WTF?!?! I then kept waking up all through out the night.. thank goodness it was a nice and light in the kid department!
When I rolled out of bed I made a bowl of Kashi Oat Flakes & Wild Blueberry Clusters I had that with a banana, cinnamon and light original soy milk. I also had a good old mug of coffee on my trek to workage ;)

Lunch was a dannon light and fit and an apple.. there also may have been 2 huge handfuls of pretzels ingested after lunch. I got out at 3:30 and walked home to be greeted my my sweetie pie. This made me NOT want to go to the gym so I ate some dried fruit and got changed and went ASAP! I did a quick 2 miles on the treadmill and some arm/back weights and came home to relax...

Dinner was sun butter and some new Trader Joe's Organic Strawberry Jelly on Arnold Double Oat bread. MMM I also had some Stacy's Pita chips. After dinner I thought I'd make Adam a treat so I made him up some chocolate rice krispie treats with peanut butter chips in it. SOO GOOD! I tried a bite but had some lime jello with some cool whip instead for my treat. I'm now sitting here talking to one of my bridesmaids/college roommate on aim.. Hopefully I can sleep tonight, I'm thinking about trying melatonin. Has anyone tried it? fill me in :-D

Have a great night and see ya tomorrow!

WOOHOO For Snow!

Even though its cold out it looks so pretty! The snow is on the trees and I feel like I like in a Norman Rockwell painting! At least until I'm scraping ice off the car for 20 minutes tomorrow! :-P haha
Onto this morning, breakfast was oats (same as usual) and brought a mug of coffee with me. The morning was alittle crazy, we have 4 kids under 2 on Tues and Thurs which makes for CHAOS! Before I knew it it was lunch time, I went out to my car to clean it off a bit and grab my gym clothes so they weren't freezing. I wasn't really hungry for lunch but tried an orzo salad that one of my coworkers made. It was tasty but I tasted it all day long.. :( I also had some of my apples and cottage cheese just because I thought I should eat something.. I was lucky enough to leave at 3:30 today and went right to the gym, I did 2 miles on the treadmill and some weights. I came home and waited for Adam to get in so we could run out to my parents and the supermarket to pick up bananas and salad fixings.

When we got back we made up salads and I had leftover Irish Whiskey Chicken from last week. I also threw in a few sweet potato chips since I saw them in the fridge ;)Thank goodness it was still as tasty as it was the first time :) I got some work done and had some sf lime jello with cool whip and a few chocolate covered peanuts.. mmmmm I got a bunch of home catalogs to check out tonight, so I plan on curling up on the couch and browsing threw those :) I hope everyone had a great Tuesday and if your in Jersey maybe you'll have a snow day tomorrow!!!

And We're Off!

This morning I was up and ready to go, I made my oats (the usual) but couldn't finish them! Me not finish food?!?!? I've been congested and feeling icky, so eating was tough this morning. I brought my mug of coffee with me on my walk to work. It was so warm out!!! I brought the kiddies out for 45 minutes and it was amazing.... TOTALLY MADE MY DAY! I walked home on lunch to get the car since I thought I'd be going to Joe's last bowling match, that didn't happen though! When I got back the woman I work with told me I was going to have to stay until 4 :( I was not a happy camper! Lunch was eaten during nap time, even though I wasn't very hungry.. I had a Yoplait Apple Turnover, pineapples, and 2 handfuls of goldfish.. MMM I got home around 4ish and when Adam got home we decided to run out to Walmart and pick up labels and ink for printing out our address labels for the Save the Dates :-D


When we got back I had my leftover from last night, the other half of my veggie delight sub (subway) some pita chips and roasted red pepper hummus. I also had a yummy pickle, and had a bite of Adam's chicken wings..Mr. Popcorn was trying to eat all of Adam's wings!!!! I then got started on making Adam blueberry bread for his breakfast. I of course tasted the batter, I didn't make it from scratch it was a Betty Crocker one. I made it healthier without letting him know about it by using eggbeaters and applesauce ;) Gotta keep the soon to be hubby alive and kicking :-) I did some stuff for work (tracing hearts, printing out lists.. ) and ate some lime jello with cool whip.. so good.. I also might have had a choc peanut butter cookie from last week! I'm off to relax and watch Big Bang Theory and How I Met Your Mother.. Hope you have a great night! I'm hoping for a snow day tomorrow.. even though it won't happen!!
