All these pictures turned out grainy cause I was messing with the ISO setting. But here they are anyway. I started the morning with a filling breakfast of oatmeal of course! Then I met Eliece and we hiked above the Avenues in Salt Lake. City Creek Canyon. Look how beautiful it was! Then we tried …

A little bit of protein
I haven’t really had much meat, dairy, or eggs for quite a while, so I guess you could say I got a craving. I boiled up some eggs, because I love a good hard boiled egg. I had to be at work at 1:30 today, which actually turned out awesome! Knowing I only had a …
I ate the wheat
This morning I was at the gym by 5:30. I keep repeating in my head Julie MOrgensterns book title, “Never Check Email in the morning”. I also read a few reviews of her book over the weekend that said not checking email the first hour of the day had greatly improved their productivity! What a …
Doing nothing is OK
I have to be OK with the days I actually accomplish nothing! People are more important, right? I should hang out with my neighbors if they are out and my kids of course. Justifying the fact I didn’t really accomplish anything today. But I did eat!! This is one of those yummy bagged salads with …
9 miles
My church meeting went really late last night. 28 out of 30 days a month, we are asleep by 9pm. So when I’m up late, I don’t sleep as well. I didn’t fall asleep till 11:30. I wanted to get going by 5am, because I had 9 miles to run. Eliece and I are following, …
Winding Down
As if I didn’t eat enough starchy food today, we sat down to watch So You think You Can Dance and popped some popcorn! I don’t know why my kids can’t take a handful of popcorn and shovel it into their mouth without getting half of it on the floor. I have to vacuum every …
Working
I was scheduled to work today. (Generally I will work if Wade has the day off). So I got up and was at the gym by 5:30. I did 30 minutes on the Eliptical machine. I had my chemistry book in front of the display, and did not realize for at least 10 minutes of …
More Carrots
I was right, about 3:30, I certainly was hungry again. I decided a big glass of orange juice with some powdered greens for a little boost. I really like it! It makes me feel energized. Usually I’ll put the greens in a smoothie, but it was the middle of the day, I have a crappy …
10 year olds can be brutal
Just got back from teaching 10 year old cub scouts about meal planning and the food guide pyramid. They were tough! I could barely get through what I planned to say, cause they had a TON of irrelevant comments. Oh well, I kind of expected that. Since I didn’t actually get a breakfast today, I …
The sweetest 6 year old
I headed out at 5:30 to do a run around the neighborhood. Some days, the 30 minutes extra I need getting to and from the gym, just isn’t there. So I put my chemistry podcast in my ear and took off. I got 50 minutes in and 4.5 miles. I always eat a banana before …
