the walking sunburn

Yesterday was the Coors Light Open Tournament

and I was the perfect
(as always)
girlfriend 
and followed 
and cheered
 my man on for 18 holes

He played very well
and we enjoyed 2 plastic cups of Coors Light afterwards 
in celebration.

and as a bonus
I have an awesome farmers tan.
Which is actually better than this 
translucent
josie grossie
pasty look
 I've been rocking for oh... the past 8 months.

Bunkie Update

It has been about a month now
since Bunkie had surgery on her little doggy ACL

(seriously- how gross is this?)

So far she seems to be ok
You can see that her other leg is hurting her
(as it needs surgery too)
and she's got this new funky fur cut

But it is soooooo nice to have everyone home again
I love my babies.

on the chia bandwagon

thanks to Miss Fitnessistsa
I learned about chia seeds awhile ago
and have been adding them to my smoothies ever since.

But what I didn't know about 
was chia seed pudding

this S--- is great!

1/4 cup of Chia seeds
1 cup of almond milk
spoon of sugar
teaspoon of vanilla

I've also read recipes where people have added orange juice, kefir, syrup, bananas
you can really play with this

Put it in the fridge overnight
and you have a yummy healthy dessert!

True Story

We received this toaster at a Christmas gift exchange
as a joke.


but since our old toaster was crap
we now use it.
true story.

(it imprints a hello kitty on your bread- true story)

on the runway

A busy busy week of work
starting with a fashion show to benefit the Boys & Girls Club

 although local,
it was my first fashion show
and was so much fun!

The best part
was the show put on by the Boys & Girls Club choir
 

the SWAG bag was also a nice perk.

This week

This week I would like to kick my coffee habit
by replacing it with tea



Why? because I cannot drink coffee without sugar- but I can drink tea without sugar
the truth is
I like tea
but some habits are hard to break
wish me luck...

Inspired Morning

One good thing about my new job 
are these great events I get to go to.
  

This morning I was invited to the Susan G Komen survivor's breakfast.

I sat in a room with over 200 breast cancer survivors. 
They were incredibly inspiring and I was reminded at just how strong women can be.


 I'm doing my part
by taking care of myself
(are you?)
I had a lump removed a few years back
it was a wake up call to take self exams regularly.

 and
FYI
Planned parenthood found my lump.
so there.

So ladies.
Do you part too and take care of yourselves! 
early detection is key.

All this living is so much harder than it seems...

You ask for one job
and get two

If you have been wondering why I haven't been blogging lately
it is because I've been working my booty off
and not in a gym way...
in a sit my ass in front of the computer way.
Which is no fun.

But I'm making the commitment to blog again.
as well as make some changes
such as my blog name...
as you can see

and content.
more on that at a later date.
