yogurt covered raisins

not just the same old salad

I woke up to rain and cloudy skies, so I just wanted to stay in my PJ’s all day long. Too bad for me, Kyle doesn’t feel the same way about what proper rainy day activities are. Fortunately the rain seemed to clear up in the afternoon, so we managed to salvage most of what we were planning for the day. Step 1: Caffeine, asap (bowling ball design).Step 2: More caffeine (cherry design)Step 3: Gym. I gymed it hard. I was struggling too, but I gotta get my butt in gear, so I pushed through….

living like a grown up

The day after my birthday I had to work, so it was back to reality. The C pod was super mega patient overload (to quote black rob, it was “like whoa”). Each patient was so heavy, there should have been 5 more nurses at least, but of course there were just two of us left to hold down the fort. The day started off with a nice starbucks soy misto, but since I was running around like a mad woman all morning, my stomach was growling by 9 and eating itself by 10. Thank the… Read more >

the final countdown…

Yes, the days are dwindling…I will soon be on my own, saving lives. Work was work. I did manage to make it to the gym after 12 hours of slaving away. I had a Bruno’s coffee (NOT sbucks!?) with a min amount of leche…I’m gonna try to reduce the $$ this week…and then for lunch I had a sando (seen below). A Street cali style bread with lettuce, smart deli turkey, mustard and hummus. Can’t go wrong with classic…never fails. My gym workout was kinda weak to be honest, but the important thing is I… Read more >

the pink month

Welcome to October, my favorite month. No work today, woohoo! But, my stomach was unhappy for some unknown reason, so my day off was not so fun. I spent most of it on the couch, and the rest of it in bed. I did manage to crawl to starbucks for a soy latte, which (surprisingly) settled my stomach momentarily. Later I had some oatmeal. Arrowhead Mills has good stuff. I especially love their oatmeal. I mixed one of the original packets with flax with a maple apple spice packet. Then I added in a hunk… Read more >

day-o-sando(s)

Another day of work. Another home-made sandwich.You know the drill. Subway to work, starbucks run for an AM caffeine dose (grande soy latte), work work work work…Here’s the rest of what I packed for myself. The apple was HUGE which is why I sliced it (to enjoy in multiple sessions). With lunch I had a soy latte and then another refilled cup of plain soymilk. I (again) skipped the gym – this week is just NOT happening in the work out department! Instead, I had some dates and another soy latte on the way home… Read more >
