2 More Days To Go!!

Hiya!

I finally had a good night sleep last night :-D I woke up and got ready and had the usual breakfast of Kashi Go Lean Crunch, Wegman's Oats and Honey with strawberries, bananas, cinnamon and skim milk. I also bought a big old travel mug of peppermint hot chocolate which totally hit the spot on another cold and windy day.

At work today one of the little girls mom had a baby so she brought in chocolate covered pretzels which I of course had to have one of!!

Lunch was a GIGANTIC apple with cottage cheese, silly me took a pic of the apple but forgot one of the cottage cheese. I also had a few cheese its since that is what snack was in the afternoon ;)

I then went to the gym and did 2 miles on the treadmill and some weights. I then came home and made Adam and I dinner!!! I made chicken in foil with some salsa in the oven. I also had a salad with roasted red peppers, romaine, onions, zucchini and croutons with Newman's Own honey mustard dressing. YUM!

After dinner I had a brownie that was quite tasty!! I was extremely full but it was calling my name as usual. My brother just stopped by so we are bonding and just blabbing.

I hope everyone has a great night :-D See you tomorrow.

Hiya

Well I had another busy one today! Those kids are amped up I think the Halloween candy is seeping into their veins even though they haven't gotten it yet!

For breakfast this morning it was the usual wegmans oats and honey with strawberries cereal, fiber one, banana, cinnamon and skim milk. I also brought m travel mug of coffee with me :)

Lunch was a HUGE apple with cottage cheese and 2 chocolate chip cookies. MMM!

I walked home after work and had some walnuts before the gym. I did about 2 miles on the treadmill and some weights and came home.

I had leftver salmon and veggies with a few fries for dinner (I ate some of the salmon before I took the picture.. I was hungry), I also had a few bites of some vcon baked beans that I made a LONG TIME AGO that we defrosted. They were still awesome! (Adam had them with his dinner) We then were off to Old Navy where I got a Halloween shirt and a new sweater :-D We then went to Barnes and Nobles for our "Date" night, I had a diet rootbeer and a few bites of Adam's Peanutbutter cup cookie. We read some magazines and ended up buying the new Weird New Jersey. I love these magazines, its so much fun since I know where alot of the places are in it. It was then off to Walmart to pick up a few things and now we are home relaxing and watching tv. I had some of my apple crumble because I needed something sweet. (ok I really just wanted it!!) I'm hoping it doesn't rain tomorrow because my brother has a football game at 2 and Adam and are planned to go for a nice walk in the am.. but we will see.. If not I'll be going to the gym and doing laundry, and maybe some cleaning around the apt.

I hope everyone had a great Friday! See you tomorrow morning :-D
I'm having trouble uploading the pictures.. so I'll just leave you with my ramblings :-P

Monday Monday....

Lets recap my day...

Breakfast was the usual cereal (total and kashi go lean crunch) with banana and skim milk. I was then off to work for a nice light day, we only had 7 kids! It was great and flew by.

Lunch was Dannon Light and Fit with cantaloupe and some pineapple. I took the picture after I had already starting eating it OOPPS!!! While the kiddies were having snack I also had some of it, just some cheddar cheese Goldfish.

I was then off to the gym and did around 2 miles on the treadmill and some upper body lifting. It was then home and doing some cleaning up in the kitchen. I finally sat down and Adam came home.. I was telling him how we got some more post cards in the mail from a photographer, he jumped in the shower and then I took a double take at the postcard. The picture of the front looked very familiar... Why.....It is one of my good friends from high school who lives in the same complex and me and her hubby!! I imed her right away telling her she was famous! I was very excited! haha

Dinner was then a salad with bbq tofu from Whole Foods, romaine, carrots, peppers, red onion, and some chicken. I put some Newman's Own honey mustard dressing YUM!! I also had some of dad's green beans baked with mozzerella cheese and breadcrumbs on top. It was great... Adam and I then went out for a walk on the boardwalk, it was a little less than 2 miles. We then ran to Kmart to pick up a few things for the apartment now that he is officially living here!!!!! I am now relaxing with some brownies baking in the oven for mom and I ate one of my super charge me cookies because I NEEDED something sweet ASAP! I also did have some brownie batter.. It is another one of those SWEETS kinda days.

I hope everyone had a fast and good Monday!

see you tomorrow.

A Few Minutes to Relax

Good Morning Everyone!

I hope everyone is having a great Saturday!! Mine started out earlier than I would have liked but what can you do? I woke up around 7:15 and layed in bed for awhile until I finally gave up and got out of bed. Once Adam was up I was ready to eat, it was about 8:15 I had a bowl of cereal SHOCKER RIGHT?!?!? (Kashi Go Lean Crunch and Total) with banana and skim milk and of course coffee on the side. Adam had one of his famous omelets with a few eggs, sausage, bacon and pork roll. A nice heart attack on a plate as I lovingly call it :-p I must say it was very good though, just not something I could eat a whole one of. IT WAS HUGE! I also had a bite of pork roll.. Oh My Goodness how I love that stuff, even though it is unidentifible meat products!! haha Its just a Jersey thing I will always a a special spot in my heart for ;)

I was then off to the gym for a nice work out of 2.7 miles on the treadmill and some upper body weights. I'm now home to relax for a little bit before I jump in the shower to get ready to go to South Amboy for my uncles memorial service. He died a few weeks ago but because of family drama things were put off until now. So we will be going to his ex wife's (who my family loves and keeps in contact with) family's italian restaurant. I have heard so many great things about it growing up from my dad so I can't wait to try it!! I just wish the reason for us going was different! I will be back later tonight to fill you in on the eats there ;) I'm also trying to conive Adam to stop at Whole Foods on the way home since we will be going past Red Bank.. HEHE

Have a great day!

Oh and here is a picture of the cosmos Adam made last night! I completely forgot a had taken a picture of them until I uploaded our breakfast pics :)

BUSY BUSY

Hi everyone!

I felt out of my element this morning rushing around to get ready and get to the school early so I could get a few things done before parents and kids started to show up! I tried to take my time and eat my bowl of Kashi Go Lean Crunch/Fiber One, cinnamon, banana and skim milk. I brought my coffee with me because all of a sudden I looked at the clock at it was 8:29! I wanted to leave at 8:30 so I rushed and brushed my teeth, gathered up my bags and ran out the door.

My new class is adorable! They seem like a great bunch of kids :) The moms and dads seem really nice too which is always a big plus! I'm so excited for this school year to start, I finally feel like I found my niche.

I went to the gym and walked for about 40ish minutes on the treadmill while watching Tyra. I didn't feel like lifting so I'm putting that off for tomorrow. I came home starving around 12:45, so I popped some frozen fruit in the microwave to defrost alittle and had some Chobani vanilla with lots of berries and granola. I also had a handfull of walnuts while I was defrosting :)

Once I sat down with my yummy lunch my cousin called, we chatted for a while and then my brother called me. I thought he was just calling to say he was on his way home from football practice so I ignored it and kept talking. He then imed me on the computer to tell me my uncle just died :( I felt horrible for not answering the phone! My cousin was talking to I screamed (to interrupt her) We both got off the phone and started calling family.

He was very sick so I'm glad he's not suffering anymore because no one deserves it, but its still a hard thing to get through. I feel so bad for my dad, he made my uncle's favorite dinner that my grandfather (his father) used to make. We were going to bring it up to him tomorrow :(

Now i'm off to sit and think for awhile. Adam is coming over for some leftovers from my dad, so I plan on going for a nice long walk with him tonight up at the beach.

Hope everyone is having a good Wednesday!

Summer is almost over!

I can't believe this is my last full week of summer vacation! It flew by so quickly, I'm so sad its almost over. I feel as if I barely did anything the whole time. This morning I was up at 8, vacuumed, burned a cd for my kiddies at work and had some coffee and breakfast. I wanted to make something fun, but then decided on being lazy and having cereal. I had some Fiber One and Kashi Go Lean Crunch with skim milk and half a banana. I also had a handful of roasted peanuts for some protein :) I plan on going to the gym soon but before that I'm going to watch Rachael Ray and do some abs. Then maybe later I'll bake something fun, since I might as well get it all outta my system while I have the time!!!

I hope everyone has a good Monday! Just think this weekend is a long one :-D
