A whole lot of mish mash

I really need to start taking my laptop home again. Blogging on my mobile just doesn't feel right. I imagine people who blog everyday at home with their nice desk and cup with pens and highlighters and shit and a coffee and a big ol' smile on their face.

Me: Sitting slouched on the couch, smirking contemplating who I'm going to bore next with my life.

Sometimes I wonder if anyone actually reads. And then there are times like these where I just don't give a shit. It feels nice to blog. Like an online journal. If I'm mad I'm going to rant about it. Like here's a mini rant about people who are always angry - if you are angry, or upset about something you don't need to bring that shit to work or where ever you go and whomever you encounter. You really want to ruin someone's day and bring them down with you? This is why I think the world is such an unhappy place. There are people that are having some majorly bad days and they take it out on the world. If you aren't happy with your life - DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. It won't change for you. Cmon we all know nothing in life is going to be handed to you. If life were easy, it would be BORING AF. We wouldn't learn anything. There wouldn't be any challenges. There wouldn't be much of anything. Smh.

That's my thought of the day.

Another thought: I should be hungover today. I literally wrote that sentence and then contemplated back spacing that sentence. I'm supposed to be on a health and fitness journey and I'm still drinking the wine. Well for those of you who also drink, here's a tidbit for avoiding a hangover: Consume healthy shit and you won't get a hangover.

Trying to think now what I ate. Morning I had celery for breakfast. Morning snack was 1/2 leftover lunch of brown rice/chicken/cucumber/tomato and a Greek vinaigrette. Actual lunch was my lunch with a side of celery. Dinner I had sweet n sour chicken, honey garlic chicken, Thai noodles, bean sprouts and post dinner was wine (lots) and pizza.

Come to think of it I didn't eat too healthy but maybe it helps eating healthy a few days before. What more can I say? We started drinking at 7 pm until about 4 am. I wonder how Kristina is feeling today..

Anywho - today's plan is celebrating Ashler's birthday. Beer tour, walking and grabbing dinner. Hoping to stay grounded today and not drink heavily because tomorrow is another celebration: Mine and Jack's birthday with the family. Mom's cooking up one of my favourite dishes accompanied with my favourite dessert. I'll blog about that tomorrow. Stay tuned.


Huge PS though - I actually fit into last years shorts. I cannot begin to describe how terrified I was to put these babies on. I was for sure thinking I would have a big muffin top hanging over these jeans (which would result in "I hate myself" and forbidding myself to go out because I would feel like a fat slob... ) but nope not this time around. Thanks to consistency, motivation, meal planning and prepping and determination (and walking everywhere I go now a days) I fit in! Perfectly. Non scale victory for me today. I'm feeling confident today and ain't no one gonna bring me down.

Dill Avocado Pasta Salad

Remember those leftovers from the quesadillas? I found a use for them. I would like to call this a scramble of leftovers with fresh dill, yogurt and avocado - because that's pretty much what it is. - cooked noodles (I used penne - roughly 2 cups - leftover quesadilla filling - 1/2 avocado - 2 tablespoons of plain greek yogurt - roughly tblsp of fresh dill - small handful of shredded old cheese Combine all and eat. I swear I didn't use a lot of dill but using the fresh stuff, it really comes through. And I just LOVE dill... it's the best. It's the tastiest herb (in my opinion). Staring at my lunch this morning - before I combined the ingredients I was thinking to myself "what the fck Anna. What were you thinking this looks absurd. Good luck". Especially since the avocado was turning brown.. it was very unappetizing and then one bite and I was hooked. I'm glad I didn't give this to Jack. I don't think he would have liked it. Recent

Boxing!!

Do you ever get so ticked off you just want to punch something? Me too. All the damn time. Sometimes I'll even punch the wall.. no, not smart at all but it happens. A friend has been going to Boxing lessons for about a month now (I think) and I always wanted to join but I'm extremely terrified - I'm mostly afraid my form will be incorrect and it will be a one on one experience. Other than that, I'm absolutely pumped! I really hope I enjoy myself because I hear boxing is an INSANE WORKOUT. There's been a Groupon for this place since forever, I always saw it being recommended to me on my account and I figure - about time. I better get my ass in gear! If I learn the proper form and enjoy it, I'm 100 % sure I'm going to get a dummy or a punching bag and start punching when I'm angry. I already checked out prices - expensive - of course for the good quality and cheap for crappy bags that will break in no time. I hope it's all upper body though and n

Today is going to be great

I was supposed to finish up this post yesterday. So the title 'Today is going to be great' was about March 16 aka yesterday. And the beauty of writing a blog about a previous day is that you can say what went right or wrong. Update: it was a great day. I still have yet to make it to the gym but I did make it a goal that one way or another I was going to get my steps, and I did. I will describe this later. Here is my food journal: For a morning snack (after my raisin bran muffin) I had a bag of salad. In the morning I'll pack romaine, croutons and dressing - in a separate container - then add the dressing to the bag itself and shake it like it's no ones business. It's genius really. Every leaf has an even coat and call me crazy but I think it just tastes better. Yesterday I used ranch dressing. My favourite meal made by mama biss - basmati rice with chicken, peaches, plum tomatoes and I added steamed broccoli. It's legit perfection. I have no ide
