Hi guys!\u00a0 It’s the last day of 2008, isn’t that crazy?!\u00a0 Whoa but this year flew by!\u00a0 I’m currently working on my 2009 goals post so look for that soon. :D<\/p>\n

\"mmm\"<\/a>

mmm<\/p><\/div>\n

Last night Scott and I watched a Pens game we taped a couple days ago.\u00a0 Man I don’t know what their deal is but they have been stinking like a pile of poo.\u00a0 Good lord.\u00a0 I had a glass of white while we watched.<\/p>\n

Then we moved on to watching The Maltese Falcon.\u00a0 We love old black and white movies!\u00a0 I had another glass of white while we watched the movie and munched on these.<\/p>\n

\"spicy<\/a>

spicy goodness<\/p><\/div>\n

In a moment of weakness at the store I bought some spicy Cheeze-Its.\u00a0 And I didn’t even bother reading the ingredients until I got them home and opened the box!\u00a0 Thankfully it’s not terribly horrible but still, Cheeze-Its.\u00a0 Kashi I am begging you to come out with some spicy cheese crackers.\u00a0 I don’t know how I made it through the movie because by 9pm I was passing out on the couch.\u00a0 I survived till 11pm though and promptly hit the hay.<\/p>\n

The wind started at about 12am from what Scott tells me.\u00a0 I know it woke me up early in the morning.\u00a0 Stupid wind.\u00a0 It never occurred to me that Columbus, OH would be wind storm central.\u00a0 I hate it because I hate wind.\u00a0 So all this wind that we have been getting since we’ve lived here is not endearing me to the area.\u00a0 I wasn’t sure if I would be able to fall back to sleep but thankfully I did.<\/p>\n

I woke up around 8am and decided to get moving on my day.\u00a0 I was about to let Rocky out when I saw this cat that has been coming around lately stalking my little birdies.\u00a0 Now I’m not angry at the cat, it is just doing what cats do.\u00a0 I’m angry at the owners who in this day and age still feel the need to let their cats roam loose.\u00a0 Ugh!\u00a0 I was about to shoo it away but it left on it’s own.\u00a0 Once it was gone Rocky and I went out to take care of business.<\/p>\n

Then I came in and made some more oats!<\/p>\n

\"yum\"<\/a>

yum<\/p><\/div>\n

Standard oats like yesterday.\u00a0 Mix-ins were blueberry bear naked, cranberries, and some dark chocolate PB<\/abbr>.\u00a0 It was fab!<\/p>\n

\"morning<\/a>

morning wake-up<\/p><\/div>\n

Along with morning coffee + creamer.\u00a0 I ate and surfed blogs for a bit.\u00a0 Then decided to brave the wind and do a run.\u00a0 I couldn’t even tell you how far I ran, I’ll have to see if I can look it up.\u00a0 I just ran and made a whole bunch of loops skirting the skeevy construction guys.\u00a0 I ran for 48 minutes, woo!<\/p>\n

\"CS\"<\/a>

CS<\/abbr><\/p><\/div>\n

The wind was miserable.\u00a0 Miserable.\u00a0 And I knew it would be too windy for Rocky.\u00a0 I drank my CS<\/abbr> and then stretched on my own, no Wii Yoga.\u00a0 Then I changed and hit the shower.\u00a0 I’m hoping the wind dies down at some point so I can get Rocks out for his walk.<\/p>\n

I did some bloggy stuff and then decided to make some lunch.\u00a0 Guess what I finally found?!\u00a0 Sandwich thins!\u00a0 Oh yeah!\u00a0 I have been searching high and low for these things.<\/p>\n

\"lunchie\"<\/a>

lunchie<\/p><\/div>\n

I made us quick hot ham ‘n cheese sammies.\u00a0 Mine had two slices of ham and a slice of cheddar.\u00a0 Wrap in foil and toss in the oven till everything is melty and warm.\u00a0 Mmm!\u00a0 In the middle is three clems and 1 orange with chips and salsa in the far back.\u00a0 I was going to have a salad because we are super snacking tonight and I wanted to keep things light and healthy.\u00a0 However I am currently freezing cold and a salad was not going to help that situation.\u00a0 Warm sandwich is was!<\/p>\n

I love these sandwich thins, oh my goodness they are perfect.\u00a0 I have been going open-face with my sandwiches because I just don’t need all that bread (even if it is WW<\/abbr> or other whole grains) but I went with both slices of these and am glad I did.\u00a0 They are portioned just right and if you are counting cals (I don’t but I know some do) the list is for 1 roll:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • 100 cals<\/li>\n
  • 1g of fat<\/li>\n
  • 4g of protein<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    That’s is good for bread!\u00a0 I will definitely be keeping these in rotation when I can find them.<\/p>\n

    We keep our NYE low-key around here.\u00a0 Scott and I aren’t big on going out and mingling during the holidays.\u00a0 Honestly we’d much rather be home and in our jammies, NYE being no different.\u00a0 We have a tradition going back almost 10 years!\u00a0 Our first NYE in our first apartment (not our first one as a couple, just first one when we started living together) was going into 2000.\u00a0 Remember the whole Y2K craze and everyone was frantic?\u00a0 Yeah well we didn’t need to be a part of that crowd so we hung at home.\u00a0 That’s when we discovered The Twilight Zone marathon on Sci-Fi.\u00a0 We have been doing this ever since.\u00a0 At home in our jammies, champagne all night long, snackies, and TTZ.\u00a0 It’s awesome!\u00a0 Last year we had two invites for parties and we turned them down because we wanted to stay home and continue on with the tradition we created for ourselves.\u00a0 This year is the same! :D<\/p>\n

    Okay guys I’ve got a bunch to do today before NYE festivities begin.\u00a0 Rocky still needs a walk and a bath to get NYE pretty.\u00a0 I need to work on my goals for 2009 post and I have to do some cooking.\u00a0 I guess I need to get moving!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
