Better choices

Started my day with a bowl of oatmeal. I added a little brown sugar, raisins, strawberrys and granola. I am eating it as we speak and its amazing.

I am considering buying steel cut oats and cooking them inmy crock pot overnight. I will keep you posted on that. In the mean time plain oatmeal from the work caf will have to do.

I almost missed my stop today while riding the bus. I received a book called "The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society". To say this book is good is an understatement. It is written is letter format, back and forth from one person to another following the time period right after WWII. Normally war stories dont interest me but this is not really a war story. I forget these people are fictional. I dont care though, I still want to be friends with them. Absolutly read it if you can.

St. Patty's Day Feast

Ok, so I have good news and bad news. First with the good.

I hit the gym today. 2.5 miles on the treadmill! Yay!

The bad news: Irish food.
Ok thats not being fair. Irish itself is not bad. It was so good and that was the problem.

Lets start with breakfast. Was it requires that I have a green bagel? Yes. Did I also need eggs and turkey sausage? Umm Yes.

So because I ate enough breakfast for 2 people, it was off to the gym for me.

Lunch was up next and no one can go thru a St. Pats day without corned beef. However, because it took everything I had to complete my 45 min on the treadmill, I split my lunch in half (seen here) and saved the rest for tomorrow.

Dinner was 2 chicken wings and a few bites of a corned beef and swiss sandwich. I wasnt very hungry so dinner was pretty light.

a good start...with a great end.

It was a good start today with some cheerios and coffee from my awesome Keurig. For lunch CJ drove over and we had lunch. I had a great salad with chicken and egg and some blue cheese dressig. So good!

I am feeling a little snacky right now but I am holding out because CJ is taking me out to Pre-Birthday Dinner tonight. I can not wait!

Was this really dinner...

For dinner I ate a bag of microwave popcorn and a decaf coffee. Seriously, this is what my life has become. I need to get back on track ASAP! Ummm....right after my birthday on sunday. The I will find where I left the track and get right back on that sucker!

Where has the time gone!?!

Yes, yes. I know. I moved and completely abandoned my blog. But I also got sick does that count for anything. No. Ok fine.

So I pre-ordered the brand new tivo premiere today. We got a deal on it because I have been a tivo customer for 5 years. We have Cox cable DVR now and I have to say that I am NOT a fan. AT ALL. The bad news is that it will not ship till later this month so I have to wait 3 more weeks for digital recording nirvana.

Favorite Shows to record:
House
19 Kids and Counting (I love this show so much!)
Fringe (He will always be Pacey to me)
Real Housewives of NYC
