Weird Wednesday

I am writing this first part at 6:44am and will finish the rest when I get home tonight. Since I've been hanging out with my 'weekend' buddy, I have constantly been coming home later than I want. He will purposely take wrong roads so I'm with him longer. By wrong turns, I mean a good 5-15min detour. I would like to be home by 5-6pm so I can get something done before dinner.

I need a VACATION! I have been saying this for years, but I see this as a better alternative to bouncy walls (aka mental institution) which I am bound to end up with if things do not get less stressful! As a side note: I am PALE. I do not look good in dirty white, nor hospital gown baby blue/brown. So, I'm thinking travel/beach/hammock/palm trees and/or Europe are a MUCH happier alternative. Plus, with a tan I can rock any color! lol. jk.

The plan for today is gym, work, then my 'buddy' is picking me up because we stayed in Sobey's for 2hrs and never went to Superstore (that was a MUST), Safeway, Community Natural Foods, or Planet Organic.

Work was DEAD and due to the new system, MESSED UP. The building has a Bourbon Street in the foot court, and their vents keep breaking- meaning it literally blows all of their carcinogenic fume/smoke into our vents. This time it smoked out the entire 3rd floor. The store was hazy with smoke, and it gave me such a headache and stomach cramps. I left work 1hr later than I was supposed to leave, jumped into my friends' car, and we headed straight to Planet Organic. No Superstore or Safeway today. I got 2 pint of sweet plum tomatoes, snacked on 2 sweet nothing wine gums, pink lady apple slices, and 2 strawberries while browsing. I ended up getting more of the Cape and Herb Spice Company spices/grinders! I got the
SPLASH blend, the OH!ZONE blend and then the Hot Chili Seasoning
There are so many other ones I want to try too! I got another Simply Natural Black Bean & Corn Salsa!

I also got flowers:



< Here is dinner (I FINALLY had my Shirataki Noodles!-I missed them!): a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgu2kzRKknRle2pcBWoy0oGPq1Ul_4o7vP42zB4ztBw2jUJnvu-4-Cg4rR8DRP8zxGH427dCEnIPJBd1us489U7CgVKAwWrs4efZ31eWUjhLFu6VIpDUY4uUCbHkeLeixshpzLul9qTD-4/s1600-h/dec2dinner4.jpg">

Tuesday DECEMBER 1st.... crazy!

Happy December guys!
I can't believe it is already Dec! That's so depressing; where did this year go.

Yesterday I wrote about the new amazing seasonings that I got at Planet Organic. The company is called The Cape Herb & Spice Company, and they have some of the most intriguing sounding spice blends I have ever seen. I am obsessed with their tin rub/seasoning called 'Zest for Life" and was really wanting to try Africa Mama..except a lot of them have sugar in them! Some other ones have poppy seeds, black sesame etc.... Those I CANNOT wait to try. I also got the Heat Wave Grinder, which is really good!!!

I CANNOT even tell you how much I want to crawl back into bed right now. I ate too much, too late, and I feel like my meal hasn't made it through my digestive track whatsoever! I go work today and then am getting picked up by my weekend friend. I am dropping off a bunch of stuff for my family @ their house (stress-hope they're not home and I can just drop it), Super Store for Dole Romaine, radishes and Coleslaw, Community Natural Foods (just because I am AMAZING GRASS SUPERFOODS OBSESSED!) and Safeway.

UPDATE end of day:
I felt 'dead' or numb today. Workout wasn't the easiest. Work was OK, except for my manager being really quiet and not talking to me all day. I majorly binged on Genesis Today's 4Fiber mixed with cinnamon, water, sweet and low, and sugar free vanilla syrup from Starbucks. 165g worth= 646cal/ 23.6g fat. I also had 26g worth of Fibersmart, and my normal chocolate super food.

My friend picked me up and I went to drop off the various goodies etc to my parents house. I feel so bad getting $ to help with my rent, especially since my dad lost his job- but I cannot make ends meet right now. It's a really shitty situation. To make matters worse, they told me that they will no longer pay my gym- can't afford it. That is my life-line, sanity etc. I felt so bad for my dad. He is in such a tough position. I almost cried. I am not even going to get into what my mom did, or tried to pull with her 'hot chocolate' bullshit- I'll save that when I'm less overwhelmed.

After we went to Sobey's, where I got radishes, coleslaw, salsa, and 2 more spices from the Cape Seasoning Company; Italian and Lamb! i got Nature Sweet Cherry tomatoes, flowers, tea (finally found the TANGERINE ORANGE ZINGER!) and Glade freshener spray that smells like coconut/Tiare flower. I also got liquid smoke mesquite, and West Indian hot sauce! I usually can't have them because they all have sugar, but these didn't!

I am so worried about the future.

Monday

Felt really sick after the gym this morning and before it. 55min 533cal/5.56miles. Had the BEST Amazing Grass Chocolate super food (aka Brownie Batter) today- since I felt to yucky, I had it with some of the GG brancrisps!
I was feeling so ill after my workout (so hot) that I heard pounding in my ears. I had the best Amazing Grass Chocolate SuperFoods with 2GG Scandinavian Bran Crisps (1 microwaved with syrup, cinnamon, and pgx granules, the other crumbled):

Followed by lunch and an unpictured jello/crystal light, lemon juice, cucumber salad:



Went to see Ninja Assasin, got 4 books!!! and went to Planet Organic where I got 3 new seasonings! The organic cape town earth fire, the 'zest for life' and a really good seasoning salt with coriander etc, green curry paste, a new sugar free energy drink and 12oz (1pint) grape tomatoes which I ate on the ride home.

Dinner was AMAZING:

Today was a WEIRD day. I woke up feeling really out of it, but had a good workout. 538cal/5.83miles!
Post workout Chocolate Green Brownie BATTER and lunch:








Things were REALLY strained and tense between me and my friend, until I snapped at Superstore, and from then on we had a great time! Went to Sobey's (green onions, cherry tomatoes, Webber's Garlic and Herb and 6 Peppercorn grinders, jerk sauce- to try, 2 kinds of Sobey's salsa, Our Compliments diet PEACH pop and Tangerine), Community (got GOLDEN YELLOW GRAPE TOMATOES! Simply Natural Black Bean Corn Salsa, Thai Kitchen Red Curry Paste), Arirang (got Daikon Radish, Organic spicy and white miso soups, and a pck of KAEDE half cut 200 sheet Seaweed), Superstore (5 908g Dole Romaine, 4 Broccoli Slaw, Radishes, Green Onion, Yellow Beans, Jello, 7up, grape tomatoes, Roast Chicken and Seafood grinders and gum).

I also need to get more Amazing Grass Chocolate SuperFood!!!

Dinner came 1hr LATE because I didn't get home until 7:38pm- I hate eating late- I ate up to 11pm!
