Calorie Counting

I'm on day four of counting calories and keeping a food diary. It's been a real eye opening experience. I swear EVERYTHING has calories in it! Except mustard. It's crazy. Anyway, with the help of The Daily Plate it hasn't been too bad.

Until this morning. I decided to have Mint Oreos for lunch. So I checked the package to see how many I could have and still not blow my calorie count out of proportion.



Two. TWO! I don't think I've ever "just" had two Oreos in my life!

Wish me luck....

My 5:

1. At least I can have 2.

2. Found a ref for B-Ball on Thursday night.

3. Found a free download of As a Man Thinketh on the internet. I listen to that book about twice a week; it's so good! It only takes an hour to listen to, by the way. I usually play solitaire while I listen.

4. It's light when I get home from work.

5. I'm glad my dreams don't come true. I had a dream last night that we adopted a 9 year old (when my kids were 9) named Carlos. I had 4 nine year olds! Darin said I moaned all night....

Home Sweet Home

Lately (okay, all the time for forever now) I've wanted an awesome house. I love my house, but you know, I always wish it was classier looking, richer looking, finished, upgraded - you get the idea.

Until I found this beauty. Introducing my new dream house.....






Anybody wanna move next door?


My Five (in 5 minutes or less cuz I have to go home soon):

1. I got to work early.

2. I got paid today.

3. It's Friday.

4. Which means it's The Office at lunch time.

5. My husband's delicious peanut butter coconut brownies.

On a side note, has anyone ever tried that Acai berry diet thing? (Yes, this IS related to the brownie I'm thankful for...)

Walking,

On a never-ending dirt trail by my house, with nothing but fields and fields and cows surrounding me, with the sun soaking into my face, is now my favorite pastime.

I love where I live.
