December Run Streak Challenge Day 21

And my life has become hectic. I knew this morning when I got up it was going to be off the chain and well it disappoint for sure. From the moment I got up, my whole day has revolved around work. I was suppose to go in at 11, I went in at 10, tried to sleep in a bit but between people calling off, big messes going on at work, etc, I did not get to sleep and my run was crap. I only got a mile in, which I know is okay and what I figured would happen these next few days, but man, I was bummed. My brain was so consumed with work and thoughts, I couldn't shake it enough to clear my thoughts and concentrate on the run. I got 1 mile in and then went right into work zone.

I was able to make my lunch, a sad on at that, a tomato sandwich and some Special K crisps. Oh and a BIG gingerbread cookie I snacked on throughout the day brought by one of my awesome base crew girls. It was delicious and the perfect sugar rush I needed for the day. I got out late of course, and crashed for a good 30 minutes. James has been wonderful and let me just vent and even cry for a bit. Work seriously does it to me this time of year, its not just the customers, its the issues, the staff and the problems that just consume my whole day, it is exhausting.

So he made me soup and a salad and it was perfect. Now I am going to enjoy a banana and some almond butter and call it a night. Getting a run down the street in the morning and then work all day long.

Day 21: 1 mile
Total since December 1: 43.54

Despite the crazy day I was very festive....lol

    You look so cute Angelina, and for the day that you described, that is a marvelous smile. Hang in there girl, this is almost over. At least you knew what to expect as you went into this season at work. Imagine how devastating it would have been being hit each day with stuff you didn't expect. You are doing great!

Low Point Apple Crisp

Image
At my Weight Watchers meeting yesterday, my leader told me about a low point apple crisp and I couldn't resist making it today. I love apple crisp, I don't have it often or really at all, because it can be high in points and frankly I like low maintenance  baking, so when I can find something easy and quick and low in points, well I am all game!! This apple crisp is again so easy and quick, perfect for a craving, a family gathering, party or just to have around the house. Requires only 3 or 4 ingredients to prepare this and you might even have all of it in your house right now. Apple Crisp Serving Size 4 4pp for a serving 4-5 medium apples 2 packets of Cinnamon or Maple Brown Sugar Oatmeal (preferably one that are 100-120 calories or 3pp) 8 oz of Diet Sprite or Diet 7up 5 sprays of Can't Believe It's Not Butter 1tsp of light brown sugar 8x8 baking pan Here is what I used: I actually used 5 apples because I

Perspective: My Trauma, Fear and Rejection

Well we have made it through another week of CoronaVirus, Stay Home, Social Distancing of 2020. I honestly have no clue what to call it, other than that. Today, has been 2 weeks since we closed BBW and shut down the store. Originally we had some high hopes we would have been open by yesterday, the mall sent an email saying they weren't going to open until the 19th, and then Pres. Trump extended the Social Distancing until the 30th. I honestly have no clue when I am going back to work. I am literally just trying to take it day by day and moment by moment, and week by week. I have been surviving and also Thriving during this process. I am a child of hard things. I have been through some tough shit in my day, and maybe I will get to that at some point, but we can save that for another post. Today the idea of Perspective is in my brain. If you don't know, which I am sure you do know if you follow along with me, but Rachel Hollis, whom is one of the many people I look

Let's Go To The Movies....And EAT at Cobb Theaters Tyrone

Image
As part of the Tampa Bay Bloggers, I was given access and a gift card to tour the new Cobb Theatre at the Tyrone Square Mall for social share and blog post, all opinions and reviews are my own. I have lived in the St. Petersburg Area for almost 7 years now and worked at the Tyrone Square Mall for 6.5. In those 6.5 years, I anxiously waited for the mall to get a movie theatre and the time has finally come and this is not just any run of the mill movie theatre, this one is luxury and spacious and a whole experience on its own. Nanci, over at This Crazy Life of Mine , also a Tampa Bay Blogger and more importantly one of my besties, and I have partnered with our blog post about the Cobb Experience. She was in attendance also and there is so much to tell you, we decided to break it up into TWO part posts, linking to the two of our blogs together. I am going to give you the details on the food experience at Cobb, believe me it is more than just soda, candy and popcorn and Nanci is going
