January 29th, 2009: Breakfast and lunch

Hi guys!  Man crawling out of bed this morning at 0600 was rough.  I was so tired.  I have no idea what my deal is this week but I seriously need to get some better sleep at night.  I almost slept in but then realized I had way too much to do and needed to stay up and get moving.

It was chilly out this morning for Rocky’s potty run which led me to making some basic oats for breakfast.

Standard oats with some cranberries, pecans & walnuts, and dark chocolate PB as mix-ins.  I ate my oats and caught a little up on blogs.  Then it was time to get to work!  I had to post about yesterday and get my review up for Cheaplander which should have gone up yesterday as well.

I let Scott sleep in a little this morning because I knew he was a tired hunnies from getting up early yesterday and helping me out around the house, plus all that shoveling.  And besides I was in the middle of some work. ;)  I got him up and then I laid in bed for a minute! :o  Oh it was so warm and comfy.  Thoughts of crawling back to bed for a nap started creeping in but I brushed them aside and got back up.  I had him edit my post and then I flip-flopped about running.

The roads are not pleasent and it’s cold outside.  I almost didn’t run but then you know me, I can’t not run.  It calls to me.  I didn’t run yesterday and I’m not running tomorrow so I can be fresh for Saturday’s RACE! So I decided to get out and just stretch my legs.  See how the roads were and if it was bad, come home.

The run was a tough one today.  First I waited too long before heading out so I was hungry again.  I started my run when I normally have my mid-morning snack.  Bad move.  It was cold which I can handle but the wind was killing me.  It was snowing these small snow pellets that were just pelting me in the face as I ran.  Plus I was tired.  I did 2.5 miles and called it a day.  Hey even a bad run is better than no run, right?  So I’m feeling pretty good that I at least got out and did something!

When I got home I slammed 2 glasses of CS and then hit the shower.  Then I had an orange because I was hungry!

Yum orange!  I’m so in love with oranges this year.  I read a few more blogs while I ate my orange and then I had to make lunch.  My tummy was not content with the orange.

Lunch was awesome today!  I loved my salad I had last night so much I had to have it again. :D  And a small cup of light southwest veggie soup.  I started off heating up some Amy’s minestrone but ew, it tasted nasty.  I can’t even describe it but the taste was not a good one.  I may just have to stick with the tomato.  In the middle is a flatout that I sprinkled some garlic powder, olive oil, and italian seasoning on.  Topped with a wee amount of cheese and toasted in the toaster oven for a few minutes.  I only had a piece of that.  And a few of the extra apple slices in the middle.  Good lunch!

Now I’m off to walk Rocky and get Scott out of the house for a minute. :D  See you all later!
