It’s Friday! Wooohoooo!
Yesterday flew by in the blink of an eye – I’m still not quite sure where it went.
I started the day of on the right foot (I’m back in the spicy oats groove – have no fear!)

And didn’t have time to even think about food until it was already time for lunch! For some reason I found this salad super depressing:

I really think it’s because it’s missing spinach. But the bags of spinach looked a little funky (translation – had brown ICK in them) so I had to pass on them this week. I’ve got high hopes for next week!
(and hopefully an Aldi video coming REALLY SOON!)
I did find time to grab a snack in the afternoon – an apple with some Chocolate PB!

which hit the spot like always!
When I got home from work – I went straight to the bathroom – to try and knock out the painting. I put a first “color” coat on the walls, and Mike and I finished up the ceiling with a second coat too! I want to show ya’ll pictures – but the room is seriously embarrassing. Painting is about the only reno we can afford right now – so the best example I can give to this home “project” is – Imagine you are in a boat, that’s sinking – and you are trying to bail out the water with a thimble. Get my drift? We’ll see – maybe I’ll share.
By the time we finished it was almost 8 and I still hadn’t had dinner!!!! (that apple/PB snack really held me over well!)
When I realized what time it was, my stomach realized it was starving (maybe it was mental) so I needed something FAST, before I started devouring everything in sight! I ended up whipping out an “all microwave” meal in about 4 minutes – and managed to hit every food group. I was proud of myself!

A can of green beans, 5 Morning Star buffalo wings, and garden vegetable (Uncle Ben’s) rice. Not too shabby for 4 minutes, wouldn’t you agree?
Alright kiddos – I’m outta here! We have a company golf outing today – so I need to get my act together, tie up any lose ends – and go wreak some havoc on the greens baby! Have a great Friday!
