My Friday Night…So Exciting I Know.

It’s Friday! And finally the weekend!  Thank.Freak’n.Goodness!

Today, felt like the longest day on the planet.  I had two surveys to do and don’t get me wrong, I love birding…but omg it was so dull, and COLD, and WINDY.

But enough of my complaining! We don’t want that on a fabulous Friday night!  My eats weren’t very exciting today because my stomach is still off, so bear with them being so dull.  I hate to keep it easy to keep from…well, you know!

TJ’s Fiber O’s with the last of my Kashi Go Lean Crunch, a banana, strawberries and USVAB.

Multigrain Rudi’s Bagel w/ PB and an apple.

Added to lunch; Best Odwalla bar on the planet: Choco-walla.

There was a chocolate chip pumpkin muffin mid afternoon before my 6 miler; I’ve only run one other time this week!

An egg and two whites sided with spaghetti squash mixed with some very watered down TJ’s Marinara Sauce.

And a sweet peach to end the night.  Chocolate pretzels will probably make an appearance, but they’ll escape the camera of course.

Since it’s Friday and of course I’m just chill’n out at home, I thought I would steal Lisa’s ABC’s post.  It’ll help you learn more about why I do what I do…or am who I am.  haha.
