Pop the top

Phew!  Made it through the day today – holding down 3 people’s work load.  How?  Because it’s a Friday in the summer time so it was quiet anyway I’m awesome like that !  :wink:

Our whole group when to cheer Kristin on at lunch time – and to make up for my earlier post – here’s a much nicer picture of Kristin:grin:

I’d say we pulled our “showin’ support” weight! :mrgreen:

Yesterday’s eats – are underwhelming, and sporadic, at best…(god, aren’t you just SO excited to read on…:razz:

Breakfast toast/PB/J combo:

For lunch – I scrounged up what I could, with what was left in the house – and I was surprised with the finish product!  Here’s the “supplies”

  • the LAST FlatOut wrap
  • 1 Laughing Cow Wedge
  • some veggies I threw in a pan to cook while I was getting ready for work:

I was VERY happy with how the veggies turned out:

This was a really really tasty wrap – but TOTALLY not filling at all.  I thought I was going to gnaw my arm off about 5 minutes after I was done with lunch!  :(

So I “filled up” (can you feel the sarcasm) with applesauce:

No dinner pictures…because…well…dinner was in liquid form.  Strongbows at McGinty’s were calling our name!  Not to mention – we had to celebrate Mike FINALLY getting his INSANELY busy schedule for next semester locked down!  :wink:

I can show you a few pictures of the drinking instead? :razz:

We both look confused and/or hurt (and I’m not sure why we needed to take our glasses of)… :mrgreen:

Lastly – I saw this driving to work today (and it made me laugh).  Fire trucks are seriously EXACTLY like the little toy ones – you can just pop the top of when you need to fix them!

Doesn’t it make the cab look like it weighs nothing?  :cool:

Happy Friday!!!!  :mrgreen:



GOOD LUCK KRISTIN!

Happy Friday my lovelies!

All of my “Account Management” counterparts are out of the office today – so I’m holding down the fort for the 3 of us!  Gotta make this fast!   :eek:

My friend (and also coworker) Kristin is doing the 60 mile, 3 day, Breast Cancer Walk this weekend!

Just wanted to give her some blog lovin’ and say – GOOD LUCK, and that I’m super proud of her for doing the walk:mrgreen:

How proud you may ask? Proud enough to post a picture I know she will FREAK OUT about:

:lol:

I may have just lost a friend!  :wink:

And to make you smile – a Friday fix of cute animals with poor grammar:

The Neverending Paint Job

The weekend’s almost here ya’ll – hang in there!  :mrgreen:

Remember how I’ve been talking and talking (god, do I ever shut up?!) about painting our bathroom? :wink:

Well last night I THOUGHT I was putting on the final coat…but the all the wood in the bathroom thought otherwise.  Still more coats to go :(

In more exciting news – I did find all of the “BEFORE” pictures of our house.  So once all of our summer projects are finished – I’ll show off what we’ve been working on!  (so modest, I know!)  :razz:

Food this week has been fairly lame and repetitive – but I’m happy to say – we are 1 day away from PAYDAY – and I haven’t spent any money this week!   WOOOHOOO!  :grin:

Breakfast was PB&J toast  (Spicy Oats better watch out next week – I miss them, so I’m gonna be rockin’ ‘em hard!)  (TWSS)  :razz:

Lunch was the best kind ever – FREE:grin:

I got invited to a company luncheon, where we got to learn more about our brands, and enjoy free, delicious food.  Look at this monster piece of pizza!

I had another “1/5th” of this puppy for a snack:

I really just want to chow down on the whole thing – but the bar is like 500 calories!  :shock:

Maybe I’ll do that after one of my long run days! MMMM, there’s an idea (and perhaps – the reason I run?!  Just kidding!)  :lol:

For dinner – I had to take it to the freezer/cupboard to see what  I could scrounge up – and here’s the final product:

Pan seared Salmon, new potatoes, green beans and Uncle Ben’s 90 second Garden Veeggie rice:

Dinner was hot and ready – in 5 minutes!   That’s my kinda meal! :)

My friend Kristin sent me this link today – and I thought I would share – 101 Best Running Tips!   I’m sure some of you have seen this before, but if you are anything like me, I always appreciate a “refrehser course” every now and again!  :grin:

A HUGE, HUGE, THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO GAVE ME IPOD PROBLEM FEEDBACK! Mike was working on it this morning – and as of right now – I think everything is fixed!   WOOOOHOOOO!  :cool:
