Need to get my butt to the gym today and really hit cardio hard and throw some abs and forearm work in. With such a lazy day yesterday.... Today I haven't been entirely good. I opened a can of black beans and mixed in salsa and some Daiya cheese and went to town. Will probably make some potato lentil soup today although I only have 1 potato left.....

It is a spiced black tea made with cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, pepper and ginger mixed with milk and sweetened. I love them especially during the colder months. The place I go to makes theirs fresh not from a box like Starbucks. I really need to get the stuff so I can make it myself

Chai latte's are my new favourite

Rough start to my day!! Being woke up the phone ringing at 4ish am because the neighbor fell on the floor after refusing overnight assistance so avoid this issue. They handed my sister and I $40 to split for our time and energy put in but the funny thing is $20 of it belonged to my sister for the days she was supposed to go over and do her work..... so $20 of it was supposed to be split between us and I charge $10/hr not $10 period. I listed some crocheted items to be sold so hoping that a couple things sell so I can buy some dog food and hygiene products. Hoping this week work will come my way as well.

I am a nursing assistant. I typically take care of people in their homes so they don't have to go to a group home. And I have a correction on my hours... they took a shift away and it dropped me to 19 hrs... As long as my dogs get food and car gets gas that is all that matters I guess

Feels good to be working today. Was a but rushed to train, get dressed for work and inhale breakfast. I was smart enough to have everything packed up ready to eat including my coffee! Even managed to fit in 15 min of cardio with running a few min late to the gym. It was so warm on my need that i didn't want to get up! It was about 18° F this morning or colder i didn't dare look so being under 3 warm blankets was heaven since my greater is biting the dust.... Need more hrs to get heater fixed yay.......

2 days behind on journal.... Won't be able to update till this afternoon. I will say i did bench 135 lbs again for 6 reps twice! Super proud of myself. I remember a time when 95lbs was super hard and that is now my warm up weight lol 115 lbs the guys stand close by and 135 lbs they full on spot me. I know the chest isn't a strong muscle for women so o am happy with my numbers slowly climbing there

I just love my friends so much!!! One ran and told them it was my birthday party and after dinner they came out with a slice of cheesecake, chinese donuts, a hat and a funny birthday song. No I didn't eat the cheesecake, did have a donut, wore the hat and posed for pics! Now I am sitting here enjoying a glass of blueberry wine from a local vineyard. Now just have to finish off all the damn cupcakes!!!!! Everyone was so full after eating the cupcakes were the last thing anyone wanted. All in all this is the best birthday ever! I didn't even pay for mine or my sister's dinner.... my trainer did!!!

Ok time to get my damn eating back on track!!! OMG all the rich foods I have been eating to celebrate my birthday are catching up to me and my gut is like WTF!!! Went to my trainer's open house and grabbed a plate full of fruit to help kick start a lot of nutrients into my body. Grapes, blueberries, strawberries, pineapple and I have some lentil vegetable soup in the slow cooker that is ready to eat. I won't be putting my body through this torture again for a very long time!!!
