Hi guys!\u00a0 I totally didn’t intend for this to be a full day recap but we switched the office around today which literally took all day long.\u00a0 I had to unplug the computer and didn’t get it plugged back in till after 6pm.\u00a0 Whew!\u00a0 So far I’m loving this new set up!\u00a0 The office is starting to look like a nice professional office and not some junk room that we also happen to work in.\u00a0 I was feeling so stifled and icky in the old version!<\/p>\n

I didn’t have the greatest sleep last night and woke up early this morning.\u00a0 I got Rocks taken care of and it was beautiful outside!\u00a0 I immediately threw open the sliding glass door to let in some fresh air.\u00a0 Ahhhh that is the best!\u00a0 Getting rid of the old stale winter air and letting in some fresh smelling breezes!<\/p>\n

\"wake

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

I grabbed a mug of coffee and headed into the “old” office.\u00a0 I worked on last night’s recap and thanks to all for your kind words!\u00a0 It’s just weird to have someone you just met make fun of you.\u00a0 I’m like, what?\u00a0 Is this middle school?<\/p>\n

I did my PhysT stretches on both legs and then iced my right knee.\u00a0 Then I made some breakfast because I was a bit hungry.<\/p>\n

\"crunch

crunch <\/p><\/div>\n

Yogurt and granola, mmmm.\u00a0 With a little more coffee. :D<\/p>\n

I got Scott up so he could get started on his day.\u00a0 Once he was up, I was free to move around the upstairs and start getting our “utility” room better organized.\u00a0 It’s where all our workout gear, martial arts gear, and some of Scott’s dress clothes live.\u00a0 It’s a mess.\u00a0 Basically we need more dressers and drawers in this house.\u00a0 Not much we can do about the small closet space so getting some new drawer sets are our only option.\u00a0 There’s a new second hand shop that’s just opened down the street so I think we’re going to take a look over there and see if they have anything in our budget.\u00a0 I would like an actual nice piece of furniture instead of some MDF cheap thing from Target.\u00a0 But if all I can find is Target stuff, I’ll use it!<\/p>\n

\"Purple

Purple haze <\/p><\/div>\n

After getting the utility room in better shape, I came downstairs and made us some smoothies.\u00a0 Smoothies are my way to sort of fight back against icky food from either the day before or earlier that day.\u00a0 I needed to get some fresh and raw vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants in my system!<\/p>\n

Pretty purple!\u00a0 Only frozen blueberries today so it wasn’t quite as cold as I would have liked but it did the trick.<\/p>\n

    \n
  • 2C unsweetened cranberry juice<\/li>\n
  • 1 C OJ<\/li>\n
  • 2 huge handfuls of kale, stemmed<\/li>\n
  • 1 banana<\/li>\n
  • 1 large carrot, chunked<\/li>\n
  • Blackberries<\/li>\n
  • Frozen blueberries<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Very yummy!<\/p>\n

    After the smoothie break, Scott got started disassembling the desks to make the switch. \u00a0 I heated up lunch.<\/p>\n

    \"reheat&eat

    reheat&eat <\/p><\/div>\n

    Easy leftover pizza.\u00a0 I had two small slices.\u00a0 After lunch, I worked on some dinner prep.\u00a0 I decided to make a nice “summer” dinner for this evening.\u00a0 After I finished that and cleaned the kitchen, I helped Scott with the office.\u00a0 I shut down all my machines and he moved stuff off of the desk.\u00a0 The old desk went upstairs and the new desk came down.\u00a0 I fed Rocky dinner as Scott was putting together the new desk.\u00a0 A little while later the new desk was up and ready for work!\u00a0 I got things where I wanted them to go knowing that full organization would occur over the next day or so.\u00a0 Then I rearranged some other things and goodness!\u00a0 Everything looks so much better and there seems to be so much more room!<\/p>\n

    Our office is a tiny space, 10.5’x10.5′ and two of us have to fit in here.\u00a0 Plus room for the printer and a bed for Rocky.\u00a0 Squishy!\u00a0 The new set up sort of opens the room up a bit more.\u00a0 Which helps me feel less cluttered and my brain doesn’t feel like exploding. :p\u00a0 After all this was done it was time to relax and make some supper!\u00a0 Hooray!!!<\/p>\n

    \"Red,

    Red, white, and blue <\/p><\/div>\n

    While dinner was cooking, we munched on some salsa and chips.\u00a0 I also had a POM fizzie.\u00a0 There are 365 blue tortilla chips, FoodShouldTasteGood multigrain and jalapeno chips in the basket.\u00a0 I had a few jalapeno (3) and a few multigrain (3) with salsa.<\/p>\n

    \"summer

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

    Dinner was burgers!\u00a0 It was too late to grill outside so I used my grill pan for these beauties.\u00a0 I made mini’s for me and regular size for Scott.\u00a0 There was also a white bean salad with red onion, tomato, and broccoli.\u00a0 Deviled eggs also made an appearance (no mayo in these).\u00a0 Mmmm dinner was so good!<\/p>\n

    \"HIs

    HIs & Hers <\/p><\/div>\n

    His and Hers shot.\u00a0 I get the mini burger and more salad. :p\u00a0 The cheese on top is pepperjack.\u00a0 We watched a bit of the Pens game while eating and now I’m off to finish it!\u00a0 And rest up, I’m going to try and do 5-6 miles tomorrow.\u00a0 And I’m running a new trail which I’m sorta nervous about.\u00a0 Wish me luck!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
