So this week has not gone as planned, which makes me a little sad! Let me back up… So Wednesday I was super pumped to do C25K, all was good, etc. Then some drama went down at work went ate up my lunch break… I did get away only because I was crying and had to go dry it up so I went to my happy place: TJ Maxx with a side of Bed, Bath and Beyond. Armed with my list of nice-to-haves, I purchased the following:
4 silver serving spoons
1 silver serving fork
5 drawer organizers
20 16-oz glasses
1 new OXO palm brush
1 ladle
2 serving spoons
I know, I know – not the most exciting stuff but these are things I noticed I was lacking as I’ve been cooking even more and having peeps over! And I’m SO sick of regorganizing the drawer every time I run the dishwasher – those days are over! Other things on the list I didn’t get? A condiment set (Crate & Barrel), new oven mits and an oven mit magnet for the fridge (TBD), new sauce pans/pots (BB&B WITH my coupon – didn’t have it on me!) and a silverware caddy (Crate & Barrel)! Yes, I need to go to Crate & Barrel!
After work I went straight home to mope… which turned into meeting friends for drinks. We ended up at 5 Seasons Brewery with a couple of couples which was a lot of fun for St. Patty’s and I’m glad I went – just a little disappointed that I didn’t work out. But Thursday was another day, right? Wrong!
I woke up Thursday mopey, anxious and with a slight hangover. I felt so behind at work (due to said drama from the prior day) so I worked through lunch, only stopping to toss a soup together in the slowcooker, and worked until 7 p.m. No workouts. Austin had a work thing so I just stayed home with Reuben and, I kid you not, organized the kitchen drawers. I’m a loser! Haha
So now it’s Friday and I had a work breakfast and I have a team lunch – grrr. BUT – no matter what, after work I’m going down to the gym to do what I wanted to do so badly on Tuesday – the C25K Week 6 Workout 2!!
I’m sorry this post has rando pictures – I forgot my camera cord! BUT I do have pictures of St. Patty’s and of my drawers (I know – you’re waiting on the edge of your seats for those! Haha).
Oh stats – Wednesday was at 2,136 calories, 240 carbs, 29 fat grams and 91 protein grams. Here’s what I ate. Thursday was high too – eek – at 2,019 calories, 290 carbs, 56 fat grams and 79 protein grams. Here’s what I ate. I’m officially declaring the pity party o.v.e.r. It’s bad enough to have a bad day at work but to gain weight over it? Not gonna happen! :)
When stuff gets you down what do you want to do first? Exercise or Eat? (or something else?)
It’s Friday –what are you pumped about?! I’m excited – we leave tomorrow for B’ham to visit with Austin’s family and celebrate his brother, Eliot’s, 18th birthday! He’s Eliot Patrick born on St. Patty’s! here’s a pic of the b-day boy!
