Happy Friday all! Here are 5 random things about my life lately!
1. Diet - I say that meaning I am getting back on my healthy eating kick. I prepped my lunches Sunday (grilled chicken, veggies, and spinach salad); have been drinking my protein shake post workout with a banana, off days are egg whites and turkey bacon, snacks include greek yogurt & hummus & carrots, and a sensible dinner (i.e. protein + greens). I admit its been hard at times because I want bread or a cookie, but I am trying. My goal is not so much weight loss and feeling better.
2. Work - I have trial next week. Well , I did have trial next week. We have been prepping and preparing and making plans and then BAM, settled last night. Hear the angels singing. But I admit its also a let down as I really wanted to get my first big trial under my belt. Oh well, there is always the one set for the end of this month.
3. My House - its trying to bleed me dry. Plumbing, roof, windows, now my dishwasher decides it wants to poop out. WTF
4. Babies - no, no no, not me... Everyone else. I mean there is not a facet of my life not touched by pregnant ladies. My friends are sprouting like watermelons! I am excited yes, but I would be lying if I didn't tell you all I am a tad jealous. I mean, girl is dying to be a mommy here, but I know God has a plan and I will just have to wait and see what he reveals to me.
5. My brain - I think its dying. Lately, I am a jumbled, hot-mess of words. I mix up words, transpose words, try to put two words together to form new ones... I just cannot form coherent sentences. I blame the lack of sleep, overstressed me. I think this weekend there shall be a nap... and Le guy and I decided we need some fun so I asked him what he wanted to do... He said (with a comical "if this goes wrong I will pull it off as a joke" voice) the zoo?! I was like OMG, yes! Fort Worth has a great zoo and its supposed to be 72 here Saturday, so I was like baby elephants, what? So we planned a lovely stress free afternoon (after he gets off work) to meander among the animals and then head to a local place to get some grub, a drink and enjoy the day.
That is my life in a nutshell ya'll! Have a super duper weekend and get out and do something!
You are always doing so much with your house! The last I remember it was looking good :) Great job on the healthy cook. I posted some recipes on my blog earlier this week (5-6) of delicious, clean eating recipes. They satisfy cravings too. Like peanut butter protein muffins (100 cals each). Still treat yourself sometimes! I forget, what type of law do you practice?
ReplyDeleteMy brain is always a hot mess so I know exactly how you feel!!
ReplyDeleteThe zoo sounds like SO much fun. And I am TOTALLY jealous of your 72 degree weather! We have snow showers/flurries expected. No fair!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on the baby train....Im envious but at the same time, enjoying the free time to do things at the drop of a hat...and not have to carry around a million things to make that happen haha
I'm sorry about the house....hopefully it stops soon!
Yay for the zoo! And boo on houses needing work - I feel ya on that. Our washer AND dryer just went kaput. And we are always trying to update things since our house is on the market. I could have so much fun with the money we are constantly spending on the house. Such a bummer:( Hopefully yours won't need anything else for a good long while after all the investments you've put in it so far!
ReplyDeleteI know you will be a WONDERFUL mommy! And I know it will happen for you, and can't wait to celebrate with you when that time comes!:)
Woohoo for being healthy! You go girlie!
ReplyDeleteYay yay yay for the zoo, I love going too!
You are gonna be an amazing mama, when it's the right time. For now enjoy all the joys of just being a gf :)
The zoo is always fun!! Good luck with the new healthy living regimen. I gotta get on that soon, too!!
