Day one ... AGAIN.

I had some bomb coffee from Starbucks Today.  I even took at a walk at 0800 am. Go ME.

I'm freaking tired right about now!

So I told you about how I went to the winery the other night I have two pictures to post.  I dont look like the first one.  People say I'm photogenic . What I take that as is '' You are really ugly in person , but you look nice in pictures''  GEE THANKS! My friend took some very good photos that night!

I came across a little rabbit in the woods the other day on my walk. 

I walked today and made some almond flour paleo bread. Didn't turn out as good as my last loaf but I think it looked okay.

I have my Moms birthday and my nephews birthday this weekend.  I am going to make him a creeper cake like this 

                                                 I bet its hard and I bet it will be fun to try !

          I am freaking tired all of a sudden so I think I am going to try and sleep. I cant stop yawning !

Paleo Wraps are no where to be found.

Whew! I have been busy. 

I had the most badass sandwich yesterday.  Paleo bread with turkey , mustard, avocado, tomato pickle, cheese and lettuce. AMAZING. It was exactly what I had been craving ! I really really REALLY want to try the paleo wraps. They advertise on the website the store I went to carries them but they do not. BUMMER.

I went to a winery Friday night and had a great time. The lady there walked me through the whole thing and I survived it. I bought a very tasty Red blackberry wine.

I have been in ketosis almost a week now and I haven't weighed myself in almost a week.  I will at the end of the month. 

I have been keeping up on the exercise but I didn't get to do much over the weekend just because I was so busy. I am going to have to be a little easy on myself when it comes to time restraints.

I rode a bike today.  It was fun. I will do it again. A little wizard of oz dog chased me down the trail. 

My dinner is cooking in the crock pot , Barbacoa. Pictures will be posted tomorrow and I will share the recipe from my favorite site !

I made paleo bread once and it did not cost 9.99 ! Its just crazy !

It really is Wednesday.

 I woke up early !  

The kids joined me on the 2 mile walk today right after I ate breakfast. ( one egg , one piece bacon)

 I decided to do 2 miles since the schnauzer almost passed out yesterday and I want to do pilates.

I think I am going to work it out like this. 

• Day one - 2 miles / Pilates (Sun)
• Day two - 3 miles 
• Day three - 3 miles
• Day Four - 2 miles /Pilates
• Day Five - 3 miles 
• Day Six - 2 miles / Pilates 
• Day Seven - 3 miles  

I look rough so its a shoe picture again

 

Post Run this is what we do... get out the electronic devices because 30-40 minutes without them is just too long.  

I made a coconut cream pie but it didn't turn out that good. I think used too much stevia 

Oh well !

 I had a little steak and some Broccoli for dinner.

 It was a day of cleaning. Kaylee's last week for the summer , I tried to enjoy the little time I had left with her. 

New Winery opened ! Can't wait to try it out. I will not be hanging out with the people in the bathing suits outside though. That's not my cup of tea ( or glass of wine?) haha. 

I have to go back to work tomorrow so I will be turning in early tonight.

 Right after TRUE BLOOD!

It really is Wednesday. UGH.

It's Wednesday, but we will pretend its Tuesday.

In an effort to act like I blogged everyday this week I am going to pretend that its Tuesday this morning. Go with it.

I woke up way after 10 am because I didn't fall asleep until 3 am the night before. 

I think sometimes I could sleep forever (No I am not depressed) I just like resting.

Breakfast 

I decided just to do the walk alone today. Actually , I really didn't decide that. Kaylee didn't want to come. It was so hot.  I had to carry the schnauzer past the 2 mile mark because I thought he was going to have a doggy heat stroke. I made it though - 3 miles ! 

I can home and made some Paleo Nola. 

This stuff is amazing its addicting and does last long in my house. 

Here is the recipe

http://paleomg.com/paleo-granola/

I cleaned , I crafted , made ringtones. The usual stuff people do on vacation?

I made Emily's favorite for dinner - Taco Salad 

She  tried out for the Volleyball team.

 She didn't make it , but she is an alternate and the team manager.

My stuff is always boring looking because I dont really eat peppers , onions, olives etc. The stuff that everyone else thinks is so good but I have this weird crunch aversion to. 

Look how cute these shoes are. They are mine now. 

Thanks Julian's Bakery for making me want your $9.00 Paleo Bread.  I now have a massive craving for a turkey and bacon sandwich and I will probably obsess until I get one. 

 Spent the rest of the evening racing go carts, on the bumper cars and boats. It was a fun time and the kids had a blast. It was Kaylee's first time on the go carts which was exciting for me to see being her Mom and all. 

 Zoltar gave me my fortune for 2 tokens. See Below.

 It says I am ....

virtuous -conforming to moral and ethical principles; morally excellent;

  I try. It says I will have a beautiful home one day.  This guy knows what he's talking about. 

 This is what happens to kids after blue slushies, Its the high fructose corn syrup and Blue#6

I was really tired.  I went to sleep at 11pm. 

I am pretty sure its Monday.

Happy Monday .. I think?!  Today wasn't very exciting. Let me tell you about it !

I didnt want to wake up. Morning Pic ! I'm trying to be artsy here with the Black and White.

 Then after I had my coffee  ( no breakfast today ) I got to work on that Jerky. 

I made Deer Jerky (GROSS) and Beef jerky.  I made two different flavors, but I really couldn't tell a difference between the two.

I took another artsy picture of me whitening my teeth. 

See hotness below. 

I did some laundry and listened to whatever Kaylee was listening to.

I went to the towpath and walked. Bugs were out of control! Seriously.

  I made it 3 miles again ! YAY 

 She put the hood up. The mosquitoes were just too much

Look at her face. They were after us.

Went to target.... Feels like I am there everyday. I found some amazing smelling organic lotion and perfume.  I think in the new year I am going to buy better makeup and perfume for myself. 

I deserve it. Maybe.

We also found some cool new nail polish !

Here's where I share some info... Someone at work told me if you put tape on a mosquito bite it stops itching. It did work. Look at that cool nail polish.

We got some starbucks. I stayed Primal . Small Iced coffee with a splash of cream.  Kaylee not so much ..... caramel Frappacino. Of course I was a little jealous. 

Then we went home for dinner , not very exciting. I hate ground meat so here was my tiny burger. Kaylee decided to have some burger with her mustard.

I made some blocks for a lady at work. They turned out pretty cute. 

I also talked to a good friend for awhile. Pretty healthy day! Mentally and Physically ! 

Gonna listen to some more music and then its sleepy time ! 

 

It's Sunday

I couldnt believe my Eyes when I woke up to this ! I never get to sleep this late !  I better not get used to it. I wont be on vacation forever. I also had the strangest dream.  It involved bathrooms and Russian Mafia ladies with Money schemes and some things I can't go into detail about. Very strange. That's me kissing my dog on my lock screen.

There was a cute schnauzer begging for my breakfast like he does every morning.

Before I forget... here is how the Chocolate Pie turned out. Tastes great and looks beautiful ! 

After Breakfast I went walking at the lake again. I really looked like crap so I took a picture of my shoes and feet. 

Almost 3 miles down AGAIN!  The schnauzer was SO TIRED.

 At the end he was laying down in the grass. So cute.  

 I made myself decent and off I go.

 

I went browsing at the stores and found the most amazing beef Jerky. I guess everyone is raving about it.  I am always the last to know everything it seems. Gluten Free NO nitrites!  Seriously they are really amazing. at $4.99 its worth every cent.  I got the sweet chipotle.  I have some beef and some deer and I plan on making jerky tomorrow. I am going to try and make these flavors.

Then I got home and ate the Chicken Enchilada Stew I started this morning. Its Kaylee's favorite. She asks for it every week. Unfortunately she ate too much crap at the water park so she wasn't hungry.

This is one of my favorite Crock pot meals. 

Check out the recipe here : http://paleomg.com/enchilada-chicken-stew/

Then I made some Chocolate Chunk Vanilla Bean cookies. I mostly make desserts for other people to enjoy . I usually just take one bite and I am good.

I have a TON of recipes that I print out. I realized I have no room for this messy stack of papers in my kitchen so I bought a photo album and put all recipes I use into it.  I decided unless the recipe has been tested and its a keeper it wont go into the book.

This part gets a little crazy. I really should not be participating in this.

We went out to Giant Eagle and I found this.  So happy about that. 

I bought Kaylee a candy bar. She couldn't wait. That's kinda piggy.

Stopped at the job-site. Waste of time.

Its after midnight and I am beat ! She's going to be so mad when she see's this. For some odd reason teens hate it when you take photos or videos of them sleeping.
