Hello Monday!

Another Monday done (almost...not until the bachelor is over!)

So what's been happening...let's see!
After Snow day last Monday...I went to body pump and got my 6 mile speed workout run in (Only one more until the NYC 1/2 marathon!)

Tuesday I had CPR after working all day and was really craving the infamous Shamrock Shake...so i stopped on my way home and got one before heading home.  I overslept on tuesday and only got to run 3 miles in the am(needed 6 for the day)...therefore after the Shamrock shake I hopped back to the gym and got in a few more miles( with a deficit of 1.25 miles due to the unhappy stomach due to said infamous shamrock shake).

Wednesday, Body pump in the AM and then ran the last 1.25 afterward to get the 6 i wanted to get in on tuesday!

Thurday, I went to 5:30 a.m. spin and i'm not kidding but it was AMAZING.  Music was great and it was a great start to the day!

Friday A.M. I got 5 in on the treadmill o'fun.  I went to happy hour after work then headed to Date night with my wonderful husband.  We headed to a bar/restaurant where we had gift cards then headed to my favorite store Book heaven a.k.a Barnes and Noble.  I sat, read People Magazine and then headed to Friendlys for a beautiful Reese's Piece's Sundae to share with said wonderful man.  It was delicious and such a great way to end the work week.

Saturday,
I slept in (Ok so in my terms that means 7:45 a.m.) then ran some errands (i.e.- Eyebrow wax! :-) ) then caught up with some friends on the phone for awhile and finally got my butt out the door for a run! I had 7 on tap for the run but the route I wanted to run was 7.52 so i got 7.52 on the books.  After running, I finished a shamrock shake(damn you shamrock shakes...is it St. Patrick's day yet??) then took a nap for a hot minute before heading out the door to babysit for the evening!

Sunday was spend the day with the husband day! It was a complete workout free day and we had a great day.  Grocery shopping and preparing some Pork ( Pork...the other white meat = love! <3 <3) It was an amazing recipe from Can you stay for dinner = amazing recipes=yum!   It was great and loved just putting it in the crockpot and then getting things done around town.  We went and visited a new baby and then headed home for the rest of the day! I made cupcakes and cookies (brought them to the baby and baby mama).  I was starving when we got back to the house after baby visiting, I was starving and an amazing chocolate cheese quesadilla was presented to me from the husband.  I WAS going to share with him but it was just so good!

This morning, I made it out of bed only 10 minutes late to Body pump.  Went elipiticalling for 15 minutes and then got the day started.  Husband worked tonight so I was a bachelorette (while watching the bachelor..ha!) and made myself a tortilla bowl using leftover pork, black beans, salsa, cheese and plain non-fat yogurt and topped with Frank's.  It was delicious...
Which brings me to where I am today...watching the bachelor and waiting for him to pick the final lady...til next time...

Snowy Stratton Sunday

Well vacation flew by! I had an amazing vacation filled with lots of working out, relaxing, and spending time doing what i love (baking, family, running).  We got pounded with snow over the weekend.  We got over a foot of snow on Friday and that only meant one thing for me.... 

Skiing Sunday!!!  

The husband had to work on Sunday so I headed up to Stratton Amazingness with some friends and got out there!! They got hit with over 8 inches of snow Sunday morning and it was powdery goodness.  The following picture was taken while going down one of my favorite trails, Lower wanderer.  It goes under this amazing bridge and past amazing condos.  I especially love this one bench made out of skis.  Need to remember to take a picture next time.  

We stopped at Bob's Diner on the way to the mountain and I feasted on french toast with corn flake crusted on it.  So good and helped me make my way through the powder.  I definitely got air several times.

Back to work today.  I slipped while trying to make my way into my building due to the ice however i did not fall and safely made it into my classroom.  Work was busy and my boys kept me on my toes (as usual).  After work I headed to spinning and then body pump.  I was completely drained after pump and headed home to a solitary meal of Chik'n patty (boca style) and spinach.  I also ate an apple with pb and some PB whoppers.  Now i will watch who Brad picks( it's taking a lot to keep my mouth shut on who he picks)
