Today's thoughts.

Thought number one -  Parking spots with a timer of 30 minutes. Who the fck exercises for 30 minutes and then leaves? The gym is on the second floor so it will take time to get to the gym, change (if you don't arrive in your gym clothes), lock your shit up, find a machine that isn't taken, do your stuff, change, grab your stuff and then run down those stairs. There's like no time. Those spots are for people that arrive in their clothes, and only bring water and a phone and are probably already fit so they don't need to do a killer workout. Stereotypical parking spots - that's what they are. The world is so unfair.

Thought number two - Why are malls so damn hot? There's loads of people walking around, loitering or shopping and we are all sardined together and there's no A/C on. What is this accomplishing? Sweat stains that's what. I'm not a fan of this. After the gym I thought I would be good and wear my clothes that I plan on wearing to dinner tonight. But nope, sweat all up on my back and under my arm pits. So I had to change into crap clothes the moment I came home - so you know I can sweat in them. Then change again.

Thought number three - We arrive at a store and it's JAMMED with customers. There's one employee on the floor working the customers and there's a second employee on the engraving section (this is a store where you buy products and have them engraved with dates, quotes or some other sentimental things). The store isn't big to begin with - I see what I want, I grab it and the woman is unavailable. It's a Saturday - where are the other employees? People want to get their errands done earlier rather than later. Long story short its annoying that the employees are backed up so much that you can't get your engraved item until the next day. The event is tomorrow - now I look like a last minute shopper because the manager failed at the schedule. God I do not miss retail at all..

That's it for today. Well for thoughts that I wanted to share anyways. Will be posting my workout in the next blog. Woo day 6! Stay tuned.

Sleeping.

I feel like I've always taken advantage of sleep. The power of sleep - not one of life's wonders. You get a good night sleep, you're able to function properly the next day. I never truly appreciated the act of sleep until last night. I'm in bed roughly by 9 pm maybe 9:30 pm and I'm a light sleeper. (perfect mom quality might I add) Jack on the other hand goes to bed around 10:30 pm or 11:00 pm. He admitted he has FOMO - F ear O f M issing O ut but in regards to TV / Facebook videos so he's up watching something so that's the reason why he doesn't go to bed at the same time as me. Well last night the Leaf game was on - and I can only assume that they lost because I didn't hear any screaming at the TV then again I didn't hear anger either and Jack's pretty loud when it comes to Leaf games (major hockey fan). I only heard around 11:19 pm that he was heading to bed. And then the loud breathing started. I can't really tell if it'...

Trying not to get too sick =(

Don't hate me but I did not log my food this week. Trust me, you don't even want to know. Just assume the worst. I told myself I wasn't going to go to the gym or eat healthy and guess what - it was a complete success! Now it's Monday and I am whole heartedly dedicated to getting back to my usual self. Except there's one problem: I'm catching a cold. With that being said, I am so thankful I had a day to meal prep before this sickness gets any worse. Last night I made my 98% shepherd's pie (thanks Kristina 😊 ) with Yves original ground round, julienne carrots and frozen mixed vegetables. Mashed potatoes I added greek yogurt, butter and a splash of almond milk (as seen in the picture below). Kristina, Christine and some green Strong bow.  A reminder to self. Even though I'm feeling a bit under the weather I'm still going to continue this healthy lifestyle and make the necessary changes to build a stronger me - inside and out...

Exhausted.

I am definitely feeling the after affects of eating crappy foods. Do you ever feel oddly tired? Especially since you're well rested and haven't over worked your body..? That's me right now. Although it's not odd at all. I noticed when I eat foods that have little to zero nutritional value my body reacts in a sluggish state. Over the weekend I indulged to a point where I just feel exhausted. I'm staring at the computer blogging and I can barely keep my eyes open . It's lunch time thank goodness so I could take a nap if I wanted to. However, that would be such a tease to my eyes and mental state. Today started off super frustrating as my co-worker did not show up. Generally Monday's are insanely busy. The office is closed on Fridays so we have messages from Thursday evening all the way up until Sunday night. The number of messages ranges between 20-40 and usually 30 (or so) fax messages. Returning those messages alone while having the phones ringing in ...
