HAPPY BELATED VALENTINE'S DAY!

Hi Guys!

I hope you all had a wonderful day yesterday :) Mine was a busy one to start out with! We were up early... even earlier than we needed to be :( Once again I can't sleep a full night! ugh! We got ready and were out the door by 8:15 to get gas and some DD's for the ride. I had a medium Hazelnut coffee with skim milk and an equal. I had a bite of Adam's bacon egg and cheese but my breakie was a yoplait cherry cobbler, some cereal and a couple of pieces of a pear I cut up(I forgot the pic of this opps) We missed the bowling alley 3 times and were driving around New Brunswick for awhile. It was too funny!! We still got there earlier and found my family right away. This bowling alley has 82 lanes which I think is nuts! When I bowled there the first time my Freshman year of HS I was in awe.. haha I'm such a dork!!! Poor Manasquan didn't do too well, but it looked like the boys were enjoying themselves anyway so that is all that matters! The tournament was over by 12 and were drove over to Menlo Park mall to wander around. In the car once we got there I had a Clif Pumpkin Pie bar, these are the best flavor by far!!! :-D I also chugged a bottle of water since the bowling alley was so freaking hot! We had fun walking around the mall and left around 2ish to come home and hang out for a bit.


Once home I snacked on some random things I seriously don't even remember except for some grapes.. hahah I then had a slight breakdown... I have a 4 day break but have a bunch of things to do with work/wedding/cleaning the apt. and just got upset. I was just being a bit dramatic but I really can't wait for our honeymoon where I don't have to think about anything except laying out by the pool (ok so I know that is so not me and I'll be out exploring the whole time! I can't sit still too long at all) lol


We then ordered out Vday pizza from the pizza place my brother works at. We got large pie half (mine) with peppers and mushrooms and Adam's half with pepperoni and sausage. He also got a pasta e fagioli. I had a few spoonfuls of the soup and a piece of my pizza and 2 huge bites of Adam's. I was so full, my belly was just weird yesterday I never got hungry. That is so unlike me. I got my lesson plans done for next week and we looked up a few things online then got to playing some super mario brothers on wii and had a few beers. I had a Blue Moon with an orange slice and then half a Miller Lite.(unpictured) Since it was Vday and I just had to have some chocolate I had 3 peanut mms and made Adam some random chocolate covered fruits. I was antsy to do something once we were done with the video games.. I had half a banana which I melted chocolate done and attempted to roll the naner in. I also put a couple of dried apricots in there for the extra chocolate. I def licked my fingers once or twice ;) hehe Adam decided to take pictures of me when I was playing with the chocolate. They didn't come out so well.. here's the best one ;)


How was your Vday? I have to say I was never one to make a big deal out of it. I think it is way too commercialized... Its really just another day to me.. but it does give me a "reason" to eat more chocolate ;)

Yummy Dinner and "Date" Night

So Once Adam awoke from his slumber and got ready this afternoon we ran out to do some errands. We got some beer for our Ghetto Vday tomorrow, tons of stamps for our save the dates and my yummy veggie chicken salad sammy from the health food store. When we got back I got started on figuring out the label program on the computer and then it was time for dinner. I had my sandwich with a pickle and some Stacy's Pita chips on the side. DELISH!! The sammy only has 200 calories but boy does it fill you up! After dinner we set out for target and Barnes and Nobles. I picked up some Amy's veggie burgers since they are cheaper at Target. I LOVE THAT PLACE!! We then went to B&N and as I was going into the bathroom there was a crisis going on.. from what I overheard a boy was there with 2 friends and od'd on some pills.. he must of left because the friends were there with some workers and the boys mom.. SO SCARY!! It makes me so scared to have kids these days.. :-( onto the fun part.. I got a IBC Diet Rootbeer (I just was not in the mood for coffee) I read some good old trashy mags and might have had a bite of Adam's pb cup cookie and a sip of his mocha frap.. so so good ;) When we got home I was craving some chocolate so I had 4 peanut mms. I'm now off to read some blogs while Adam watches the Daytona truck race...
Question: Does anyone have any fun/exciting plans for Vday tomorrow?

I'm going to my brother's state bowling tournament up in Northern Jersey then going to Menlo park mall for some browsing. At night we are getting some pizza and playing wii (super mario brothers) and I'll be having a Blue Moon or 2! We thought we'd go old school it reminds us of our childhood.. well except for the beer... hahah

A Nice Quiet Day Off!

Hiya All!

Well I woke up bright and early this morning even though I had no work! Adam's alarm went off at 7 so I was wide awake from finally sleeping a whole entire night!!!!!!! FINALLY! It was about 8 hours, I haven't slept that long in a while. I made some coffee and tried to relax while watching the news.. but since there was a horrible plan crash I wasn't as relaxed. Those poor people! That is 2 plane crashes in about a month :(

Breakfast was a nice big bowl of oats with banana, soy milk, and grape nuts. I also munched on a ton of grapes while waiting that whole minute for it to heat up in the microwave :-P I let that digest and went to the gym and did alittle over 2 miles on the treadmill and some weights and came home to find Adam home already! He took a half day since he wasn't feeling well and there wasn't much work going on. (He's in bed now) I cleaned the floors and dusted then got in the shower and watched some tv until I started to get hungry for lunch. I made egg whites scrambled with some mozzarella cheese and a morning star sausage. MMM I also had more grapes and when I was cleaning up I may have inhaled a piece of chocolate ;) I love my parents at work but they need to stop giving me food for holidays!! HAHAHA I hope your having a great Friday! The weekend is almost here :-D See ya tonight for din din!

ITS MY FRIDAY AND I'LL BE SILLY IF I WANT TO :-D

haha ok I am such a dork! I got out of my class late last night so here I am today :) I woke up before my alarm and was ready to go. I made up a bowl of Kashi Raisin Spice heart to heart oatmeal. It was very very tasty but much sweeter than my normal bowl of morning oats. I also had a huge mug of coffee that I brought with me to work since I knew it was going to be a crazy day. Boy was I right it was out of control!! SUGAR+2 and 3 YR olds= HELL!!! hahah needless to say the morning flew by and I might have snacked on a ton of fruit and a cookie during our VDAY party. Lunch was a dannon light and fit and a pear. I was pretty full from all the fruit I munched on in the morning.
After work I went to the gym and did 2.5 miles on the treadmill while watching some of Oprah. I then stopped of to visit the parents for a bit since I haven't really seen them all week. I ate 2 cookies while I was there, they always have good treats there!!! lol

I came home and checked my email and relaxed until Adam got in from his doc apt. Dinner was a salad with some hummus and croutons and a half of a sweet potato with the Newman's Own Mango Salsa that I LOVE! I cleaned up the apartment a bit and looked at pictures of my friend's new baby. I also snacked on a few grapes and a yummy piece of chocolate. I'm off to be lazy and watch tv since I don't have a bedtime tonight :-D Have a great night and see you tomorrow morning :)

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!

MMM Bison Steak

Well dinner turned out very yummy thanks to Adam! We had Bison steaks and I had a sweet potato with Newman's Own Mango Salsa. I also had some sauteed peppers and onions on the side. I also had a small glass of Pinot Grigio with din din :) We went out to the dumpster to toss a ton of garbage out and it is still warm! I love it, the rest of the week is supposed to be warm also :-D

Dessert was a chocolate from the box of chocolate I got from one of my kiddies on Friday for VDAY! I had a Almond Cream and boy was it AWESOME! I'm now watching Bridezillas before its bedtime. I hope everyone had a great Sunday and that the upcoming work week goes well. See ya'll tomorrow!
