Tuesday, October 12th

No WOD - *rest day*

I had my alarm set and then snoozed right on through the last early morning class. Wish I could say the extra sleep was worth it, but I didn't actually get any extra sleep. Fail.

Food:

Breakfast:

few strawberries, very few pecans
black coffee to hopefully make me a nicer person (or at least help me tolerate others)

Just don't feel like eating this morning. Tired and stressed.

Lunch:
Roast w/ carrots & mushrooms

Snack:
1 mandarin, 1 apple
few pecans

Dinner:

Shrimp seasoned with this fantastic little packet of chicken fajita seasoning I got in the bulk/"healthy living" section at HEB. Will stock up on this stuff.
1/2 avocado

Treat:
Paleo Candy Bars (coconut oil, shredded coconut, honey, pecans, cocoa powder)
*saved me from running out to Baskin Robbins like I wanted to do.

Didn't enjoy this day. Spent most of it being frustrated with all I have to do for work and school and at home and missed several opportunities to just give thanks and be grateful that I have so much. I take on too much and try to control it all and then am surprised when I reach the point of being overwhelmed. But the day ended well. Man-cub fell asleep in the car and stayed asleep once we got home. This is not the good part...I missed not getting some time with him....but I did check on him several times and smell his hair and kiss his sweet, soft cheeks. I made a quick dinner and sat down on the couch with Hubs and we finished a great little movie that we had started over the weekend... "City Island" with Andy Garcia and Julianna Margulies. Loved it. We ate our Paleo candy bars and were happy just to "be" for a little while. Laundry and dishes will always be there...the people you love might not. Take the time. You won't regret it.
