Wide awake on a Mooooondayyy

No Comments

My first full day where I feel 100% back to normal! I woke up at 5:47AM to head to the gym and do a boot camp class. Got home and showered while I heard the puppy yawn and cry for me – you know that adorable yawn where they let out little screams at the end? lol. Ok not really scream but a whine. Anyway, he wanted to be TOTALLY babied this morning and just be carried around — which was annoying and difficult as I had to feed myself, get dressed AND clean up pee that I found in the KITCHEN! BAD!!!

latteSo I stopped by Starbucks and got a Hazelnut Latte for myself. I’m going to be wired! I LOVE it. They didn’t have any of those fancy green stoppers and I needed something because with my erratic driving it’d be splashing everywhere. HEE HEE they gave me a sticker! Peru Chanchamayo it says on it. Fancy stuff.

I rarely have caffeine. Okay, like I drink pop all the time (well not ALL the time) but coffee? Never. It makes me hyper, like I feel like I’m acting as if I was if I were drunk. Very chatty, very friendly. Coffee does weird things to the body.

Love my nail polish? It’s peachy colored from ELF (I think it’s called Coral). I bought it ages ago and forgot I had it. Nice and springy and only a dollah!.

Have a graaaaand ol’ day all — and if you really want to have a new workout top hurry up as my ebay auction ends TODAY! 5 hours left!

I think I’m going to do the No Buy Month in April. I dreamed about it last night.

starbucks-02So I’m back at work and my body feels completely awake. My sinus’ are doing much better, but my head feels full — full of what I’m not exactly sure. I decided to whip out some trusty Starbucks Peppermint Hot Chocolate that I received from my Boyfriend’s sister for Christmas, and boy it tasted divine. I’d like some more, please. Maybe I’ll go get some during lunch hour with the gift certificate that I won from Jeanine. Or is that only a seasonal flavor? Either way, the hazelnut latte sounds pretty fan-tabulous right now too. Actually, any caffeine does at this point.

Want to see mister trouble-kins? Since I haven’t posted any of him in a while here’s three cute photos of Alfie while I was home with him on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Adorbs, right? They’re tiny thumbnail view, so you can click to enlarge them.

When I was off ill the past few days, I received a package (in purple) from Lululemon that I ordered online the other day. Maybe I’ll take a few pictures later and review it once I get to wear it to a fitness class (since I’m a total gimp at the gym and need to be told what to do! LOL).

Oh hey guys and gals — don’t forget to enter my Smashbox contest as it ends tomorrow afternoon.

Question…

How often are you supposed to get your eyes checked? For as long as I can remember I always wanted to wear eyeglasses just like my Dad. Over the years my brother and mother ended up having to get glasses to. How true is it, that if you eat all your carrots on your plate that your eyes will grow stronger? I was always a naive kid, and still am – you can pull the wool over my eyes so fast and I’m like “Where’d you go?”.

I have always loved carrots, and wanted more and more on my plate. I don’t remember if my Brother or Mother always had additional carrots added to theirs. Maybe that’s why I have great vision? I don’t know where it came from. Certainly not genetics, because my parents have glasses. Right?

I don’t remember the last time I went to an eye doctor. I have a better range of sight than the 20/20 vision’ers (is that a word?). Apparently I can see 15/20, or maybe it’s 20/15. I don’t quite remember. But I do recall being disappointed that I didn’t get to scope out some new frames for my bad self.

Nobody should wish bad eyes on themselves, as I know glasses can get pretty pricey. But I came across a site called Zenni — check out more in this article as there is a review there, too. But that article was talking about how you can get quality eyeglasses for a LOW cost. I mean, there aren’t any middlemen, no retail overhead and they barely have an advertising budget – it’s all word of mouth. I know Cinda (a girl I know online, actually) who bought her frames from Zenni and they didn’t cost her a lot out of pocket.

Something to consider?
