Hi guys!\u00a0 So far I’m having a great day despite getting to bed too late and not sleeping all that great.\u00a0 When we got back from class all I wanted was a glass of seltzer and you know we’re out.\u00a0 Booo.\u00a0 I had water and a snack.<\/p>\n

\"love

love this snack!<\/p><\/div>\n

Some kashi honey sesame crackers, a huge red delicious, and some PB<\/abbr>.\u00a0 I split this snack with Scott. :D\u00a0 We watched a horrific Pens game and then I headed up to bed after 11pm. :tired:\u00a0 My alarm went off at 6am and I shut it off and tried to go back to sleep.\u00a0 I decided not to run this morning since I had a not so great sleep and instead would do some yoga later with Scott.\u00a0 I laid in bed for an hour before Rocky started throwing a fit wanting to get up.\u00a0 His “fits” consist of him laying in bed doing huge boxer sighs (a boxer will actually sigh and make “HMPH!” noises at you :p ) and I can only take so long of that when I’m trying to sleep.\u00a0 All other times I find it adorable.<\/p>\n

I got up and got him taken care of and was so impressed with the weather outside.\u00a0 It was an amazing spring morning.\u00a0 Granted it was gloomy and cloudy and felt like rain, but it was still warm.\u00a0 I made some breakfast of another yogurt mess.<\/p>\n

\"breakfast

breakfast time <\/p><\/div>\n

Same dealie as yesterday along with coffee.\u00a0 I did some bloggy stuff while eating breakfast and checked in on all of you!\u00a0 Sometimes I get in a commenting rut or just don’t have much to add to the conversation, so if I don’t comment just know I’m still reading!<\/p>\n

And then I realized I needed to get out and run!\u00a0 I wanted to be out in that nice weather doing my thing.\u00a0 Plus the forecast says rain for today and tomorrow.\u00a0 It currently wasn’t raining and I decided to take advantage of the situation (and it’s possible I might not be able to run tomorrow).\u00a0 At 45F, I was able to pull out a new pair of crop running pants, a new shirt, and wear my hoodie.\u00a0 It was that warm.\u00a0 Hooray!\u00a0 And needing to shave be damned, I was wearing those pants.\u00a0 If someone noticed then obviously they were looking too closely at my leggies.<\/p>\n

\"CS

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

Running was awesome!\u00a0 I just did a nice pace run for 3.5 miles.\u00a0 My ears started stinging just a bit from the weather.\u00a0 I put my hood up and it helped a little bit.\u00a0 I would have done more milage but my ears couldn’t take it.\u00a0 When I came home I drank my CS<\/abbr> and then was back out the door with Rocks.\u00a0 I decided since it still wasn’t raining, I better take him while the getting was good.\u00a0 We did about 30 minutes and I came home and did some stretches.<\/p>\n

After my shower I had a mid-morning snacky.<\/p>\n

\"hunger

hunger buster <\/p><\/div>\n

Some raisins and some kashi honey sesame crackers.<\/p>\n

I had originally suggested that maybe Scott and I could go to breakfast this afternoon for lunch.\u00a0 And the more I started thinking about it, the more I realized that what I wanted I would not be satisfied with getting out somewhere.\u00a0 Our favorite place to go is First Watch and while I love it, I don’t think they make very good omelets.\u00a0 And I wanted an omelet with lots of cheesy goodness.\u00a0 I also wanted homefries but didn’t want to have to resort to HFCS<\/abbr> ketchup.\u00a0 I could bring my own I suppose but I haven’t really crossed that line yet of bringing my own food\/condiments to restaurants. :lol:\u00a0 So we stayed home and I made breakfast for lunch!<\/p>\n

\"wow!\"

wow!<\/p><\/div>\n

Check out the monster omelet I made!\u00a0 It was huge and looked awesome so I had to take a picture of it.\u00a0 Making omelets for me can be a crap shoot.\u00a0 Either they look awesome, like today.\u00a0 Or they’ll turn out looking like something your drunk Uncle Larry made at 3am.\u00a0 Glad today was a good day!<\/p>\n

\"missing

missing a digit <\/p><\/div>\n

Here’s how it looks after I’ve removed my portion. :D\u00a0 This omelet was made with 2 eggs and a bunch of egg whites (not sure how much because I was using egg beaters and just poured some out).\u00a0 Some mustard and horseradish into the scrambled egg mixture.\u00a0 The inside had pepperjack, spinach, two slices of ham, and colby jack.\u00a0 YUM!<\/p>\n

\"lunchie

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

On the side was 1\/2 an asiago bagel straight up and some homefries.\u00a0 I cubed the potatoes and seasoned them with a bunch of stuff and coated them with some olive oil.\u00a0 Roasted at 425 for about 10 minutes, then I added in some chopped green pepper and chopped onion (also with a bit of oil), tossed everything together and let it finish roasting.\u00a0 Roasted homefries are a lot easier and quicker to make and they are healthier!\u00a0 With some OJ to wash everything down.<\/p>\n

\"round

round 2<\/p><\/div>\n

Then I went in for some more potatoes!\u00a0 I didn’t eat this whole second portion, just a few bites.\u00a0 Breakfast lunch was a success!<\/p>\n

Pampering Day<\/strong><\/p>\n

I’m having a very indulgent type of day and I’m looking forward to it!\u00a0 However I’m not going to call it indulgent day just because I don’t really care for that word too much.\u00a0 Indulgent, to me, sort of implies something bad and something that might cause you to feel guilty.\u00a0 I don’t feel guilty at all for my day I plan on having today nor do I think it’s bad for me.\u00a0 We all need to just live life a little, right?\u00a0 So today is what I’m calling a Pampering Day!\u00a0 My lunch was an example of how I’m pampering myself today.\u00a0 Carbolicious and cheesy goodness.\u00a0 There’s going to be wine in my future and maybe some chocolate as well.<\/p>\n

I believe that we all just need a day (or weekend, or vacation) to do whatever, eat whatever, and live however.\u00a0 It’s good for our soul, recharges our minds, and is good for relaxing and destressing.\u00a0 Do you want to have a Pampering Day with me? :D<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
