I didn’t feel so hot when I woke up this morning.  I think it was just related to allergies because after a shower, I made a speedy recovery.  I had a bowl of Peanut Butter puffins for breakfast. I had a very short job training session this morning.  When I left Healthworks, it was HOT [...]

As soon as I rolled out of bed yesterday morning, it was time to get to work.  Sunday was 100% dedicated to cleaning the yard.  (and watching Lost, but that wasn’t until later that night) Jared and I hauled 10 more bags of marble chips home to complete our pathway.  We began construction last weekend.  [...]

Congratulations Matt! You made it through 4 years at Skidmore College.  4 years of classes, hard work, hockey, and fun times with your friends. Warning:  This post isn’t about food, exercise, or healthy living.  It’s more of a Photo Collage to brag about my little bro and his college graduation. I tried to make a [...]

I grabbed Breakfast on the Go yesterday morning.  I enjoyed an Ice Chai Latte on the drive to work. Plus Perfect Oatmeal.  Though it was slightly less than perfect for me.  Too dry!  If I had checked while I was at Starbucks, I would’ve added a splash of milk.  Unfortunately I didn’t add my toppings [...]

Jared worked SO hard to plate last night’s dinner.  I’m so proud of him. He made chicken and butternut squash risotto along with a salad with spinach, cucumbers, carrots, and orange peppers.  Mmm! Moving on to this morning’s breakfast, I had an English muffin with peanut butter and jelly before heading to work.  And to [...]

For the past 2 days, I’ve been too distracted to read blogs.  So sorry.  I’ll catch up with my blog friends (blends) over the weekend. Yesterday I completed my paperwork.  I have a job! I’m so excited to be working as Membership Sales Advisor at HealthWorks in Chestnut Hill. I had a tasty breakfast.  An [...]

I had an English muffin with peanut butter and a banana for breakfast. Then I got down and dirty doing more yard work. Another day of counting household chores as exercise.  I raked, watered, and hauled bricks until I was too hungry to continue.  I called it a day without planting any of yesterday’s purchases.  [...]

Whether by choice or by unfortunate circumstances, many people spend time without a job, at some point in their lives. I’ve been between jobs for 3 weeks.  I’ve made a list of ways to stay sane while out of work. Tips for the Non-Working Girl Shower, get dressed in normal clothes, and put on makeup [...]

Last night, the weather looked questionable: Dark skies, raining heavily on and off.  But I went to HealthWorks for the 6 pm running club anyway. It proved to be a great decision! The rain stopped by the time our group of women runners hit the pavement.  We left from the Back Bay HealthWorks and ran [...]

The clouds rolled in yesterday afternoon and I was really nervous that it was going to rain.  Miles and I canceled our walk. I snacked on pretzels and watched the marathon of last season’s NJ Housewives on Bravo. Separate sushi… Jared and I ordered sushi for dinner.  I HATE when his fishy stuff is in [...]
