Today was so very much a Monday. I'm tired, I wanted nothing but junk food, and I didn't have time to work out because of a quick after-school meeting that I didn't know I should be at. But tomorrow I start coaching volleyball! HA! A whole bunch of fifth grade kiddos running around attempting to bump and set balls. What am I getting myself into? Ah well... Monday is soon behind me and I'm heading into Tuesday with "hopefully" a whole new attitude. OH! I almost forgot... I started today with a dance party dedicated to one of my co-teachers that left me the year before last. We often found ourselves needing a quick pre-school-day dance party to change our outlook... so here is today's dance party. Hopefully it'll help you feel a little better. :)
I filled my belly with:
Breakfast: Leftover sweet potato hash and two eggs, sliced bananas mixed with unsweetened shredded coconut, raspberries, and slivered raw almonds. (REALLY FILLING and probably a little much... but really needed for getting me out in to the world today... plus, I needed all the fuel I could get my hands on for that kickin' dance party. Yes... I'm 34.)
Lunch: Leftover spaghetti squash and ground turkey marinara, baby carrots, and a grapefruit. (Have I mentioned I am OBSESSED with this citrus? Sidenote: I have a grapefruit soul sister at school that picked me up a bag from Costco... it was like the sweetest little thoughtful gift and it was a bag of grapefruit... I love her.)
Dinner: (TALK ABOUT A WEIRD MIX... The hubby was gone at a meeting, so I ate...) Half a leftover chicken thigh, part of an avocado, some applewood smoked bacon, pistachios, and an apple. Weird? yes. Filling? Yes. Satisfying... not terribly.

ReplyDeleteOh AFD... what do I do without you? The answer is nothing. I miss you so much it hurts. This school year is SO DIFFERENT, but the good news is I'm getting to know Taiger better and man, does that girl keep me on my toes. hahaha! I love you and I miss you. YOU inspire me. I have loved watching you make such awesome changes for yourself all the while keeping the AFD that we know and love. Can't wait to see you next time... maybe next time we can look for a 5K to do together!!!! So fun! I love you, girl... keep it up and let me know how things are going!
