Next time I do squats i'm doing weights! Some of you amaze me with the amount of weight you do!! Wowza!! I love mysteries too, and chick lit, not so much for the biographies or romance novels though. I think that's why we're all liking our book club so much - it really gives us the chance to read books we wouldn't have read otherwise - fun!!
Backtracking to Tuesday! The usual: Work, 4 miles during lunch, work more, 2 miles after work and an upper body circuit – love it! Plan to do it twice a week then mix it up later! After work I raced home and threw together this pizza – my half is 3-pepper pizza with stoplight bell peppers! Austin’s is the same – but with added pepperonis.

Fabulous! I will say I had a girl scout binge at work… evil cookies. Here’s my stats: 1,829 calories, 236 carbs, 61 fat grams and 77 protein grams. Here’s what I ate.
Wednesday I worked, then used my lunch break to get gas, and hit up Costco and Home Depot for Austin’s upcoming b-day party! Long story short: I’m in Costco checked out at a little over $100 and because it’s not my costco card (Austin’s mom’s)I have to pay in cash (don’t have any) or debit card (only have credit cards). So… they’re like oh a manager will override this. The manager, a total jerk, comes over and is giving me shiz. You would have thought I was underage using a fake ID and he was a cop. Um, this is reality, you’re a costco manager and I’m trying to spend $ here. It ended with him saying my only option was to become a costco member and pay $50. I reminded him that no, there was another option, I could walk away. And then I did while thanking him for wasting my time. I mean REALLY – I’d JUST gotten gas with that card. The funny thing is we used to be members and never used it, now I tried to use it twice in one day, and the best part is he” confiscated” the card – I kid you not! (his words) LOL Get over yourself, dude! So that was useless, but I had a much better experience at Home Depot and even used a saw!
After work it was time to do C25K Week 7, Workout 1 – another 25 minute run! I did it! And kept on walking for 4 miles. This time it was harder because I was at my parent company’s gym and there was a mirror in front of me and I felt like I was watching myself the whole time. LOL It made me tired to see myself run. Is that weird? Haha I did the 3 miles burning 189 calories, then totaled out at 256 calories. Then it was shower time and BOOK CLUB!
Me and Crystal followed each other over, to meet Monica, Stacy and Shana at Devon’s house in Decatur! We had a great club, had yummy salsa/dips and all agreed – Kate Morgenroth’s They Did It With Love was AWESOME! We also had lots of great convos about everything from healthcare to 101 things to do in 1,001 days! So fun to get together with the girls. At the end we picked our next book club books: The Book Club by Mary Alice Monroe for April-ish, and Intensity by Dean Koontz for May-ish. I’m so excited about both!! Thanks again for the Koontz rec, Tina! It got late quick and I found myself not getting home until 11 p.m. – eek! I went straight to sleep! Stats: 1,621 calories, 199 carbs, 55 fat grams and 59 protein grams. Here’s what I ate.
Ever been turned away from a store? LOL
Been to any fun 30th birthday parties? We’re definitely doing a party at the house with a taco bar and I’ve locked down colors, ordered linens and done a few more things!! But I would love game ideas or cute decorating ideas!
