Hi guys!\u00a0 Looky what I had!<\/p>\n

\"White<\/p>\n

Last night was a rare wine and snack night, which is partly why I kept my dinner a little lighter.\u00a0 I could have gone for another piece of fish but since I knew there was some chocolate zucchini bread in the near future, I passed on the fish.\u00a0 I had a glass of white and most of but not all of the snack.\u00a0 It was so weird having a snack and wine on Tuesday and I didn’t care for it.\u00a0 It was just odd.\u00a0 I never really realized that I have an unspoken snack and wine days schedule until last night. I fully believe in living life and applying moderation which is exactly what I participated in last night but I won’t lie, it was weird. Didn’t stop me from drinking and eating it though! :lol:\u00a0 The wine was opened already and neither one of us wanted it to go bad and we didn’t think it would survive until Thursday evening, so down it went.<\/p>\n

I crashed out hard at 10:30, partly from exhaustion and partly from the wine.\u00a0 Wooo!<\/p>\n

I got up at six and immediately started work.\u00a0 I had visions of wrapping up this week’s workload today and that was my motivation to push on through!<\/p>\n

At 7:30, I stopped and changed into my running clothes.\u00a0 I wanted to do another four miles but my legs were saying no way.\u00a0 They were tired and I listened.\u00a0 I know I want to do four miles tomorrow and hopefully make conditioning class, stressing and pushing my legs today will not help me tomorrow.\u00a0 Better to let them rest!<\/p>\n

\"Chocolate<\/p>\n

I had a small kick of CS<\/abbr> before heading up to shower.\u00a0 Mmm shower and I was also dreaming of breakfast.<\/p>\n

\"CoffeeI decided to kickup the pumpkin cheesecake oatbran today!\u00a0 I added in a few more spices to make it more holiday pie like, a bit of brown sugar (I’m out of bananas!), and then on top crushed Kashi honey sesame crackers and shredded unsweetened coconut.\u00a0 The Kashi crackers taste like graham crackers to me and they were perfect with the oatbran this morning!\u00a0 YUM!<\/p>\n

After breakfast I walked Rocky and lordy it was cold out.\u00a0 By the time we got back it started to rain; we got home just in time!\u00a0 Getting caught in the rain stinks, but getting caught in winter rain blows!\u00a0 We missed that thankfully.<\/p>\n

I did more work and finished up my projects.\u00a0 Hooray!\u00a0 I was hoping that would mean I was done with my stuff for the week but that was not to be the case.\u00a0 I got 3 more tapes in, each an hour long.\u00a0 I’m a fast typist but not super fast; an hour long recording takes me easily three hours to transcribe.\u00a0 Add in someone who doesn’t speak clearly and it could take longer.\u00a0 Oy!<\/p>\n

I stopped for lunchie:<\/p>\n
