Naughty

I am working from home today so I can take Mari back to the train station at 10:30.  I also really need to catch up on sleep and I just have a million things I need to do.  Yes, I will be working too. More than anything, we simply stayed up late talking and then I didn’t want to say good bye last night and then have to go to work and leave her to get to Union Station with 1234082309 pounds worth of luggage.  So I called in sick.  But I am working….:) (this is very unlike me)

Last night, we did consume a bit of alcohol.  A mint julep and I had a little bit of white wine.

This morning we went out to breakfast at the Original Pancake House.  Doesn’t it seem like there is an Original Pancake House in every town?    I was excited to see whole wheat waffles on the menu, so I got one of those, with blueberries.  I ate about 90% of this thing and it was tasty tasty tasty!

I am putting down 450 calories for that whole wheat waffle.  There was no syrup or butter on it.  I used a tiny amount of butter (maybe 1/2tsp) and some blueberries on the side.  What do you guys think? 450 accurate or no?

Aims of today:
Get work done for my Thursday meeting
Get work stuff done for installs today
Lift
Call into 2PM meeting
Go for a bike ride
Bake something for Becky
Mail Becky’s care package
Mail back the crappy phone I got from EBAY
Do a load of laundry
Pack up a few boxes of the house
Write some thank you notes
Call Allie
Get email sent out for ECU game

That should keep me busy!

    i totally don’t blame you for playing hookie from work- you have so much to do!!!

    i definitely think 450 is accurate– maybe even a little too high.. i can’t tell how big the waffle is but they might have used a little bit of oil in the batter. looks fantastic!!! we don’t have an original pancake house here, but after seeing that waffle i totally wish we did!!

    good luck with your to-do list!

    Yum! That whole wheat waffle looks amazing – and yes, they definitely have OPH everywhere. But the one near me claims to be the “original” Original. Ha.

    I hope you get everything done today! Hookie from work was a good idea :)

Summary



About Me: 28-year old, fairly newlywed (Spring 2007) that lives in Northern VA. Work full time, love my job, have an unfortunately long daily commute.

While an obsessive long distance runner, I am still trying to recover from 2 major knee surgeries. Atleast I am able to (semi) run again.

In the past, I definitely have not always fed my body correctly to support all the running I did. Simply put, my aim was to be the smallest weight/size possible. Now, my aim is to eat healthy, well rounded and simply to enjoy as much of life without worry about the calorie content and what the tenth of a pound the scale is showing me.
