Happy Monday… Not Happy to go to Work!

So… Unhappy Monday! :) I got absolutely no sleep last night. I’m still exhausted!! It’s my fault for not putting my earplugs and sleep mask on though. This summer’s been full of torrential downpours at 2am. I can’t stand it. But we’re saving on using the auto sprinkler system :D

My weekend flew by and I feel like I got absolutely nothing accomplished. Well besides cleaning the bedroom and bathroom. The next large task is my office. I need to clean the guest room out but I’m not too worried because I have a couple weeks before Karol & Sylwia arrive :D Yay, I’m so excited!!!

Today’s Plan:

• Work (I eat before I leave work around 5:30-6 or whenever I get out just so that I’m not eating too late)
• Walk Maia
• Mel B Fit (Abs baby!)
• Read Cooking for Mr. Latte while in a nice HOT bath
• Blog a bit & catch up on other blogs
• Look for my dream house :)

I’m starting my 1.5 year plan. I’m doing a little research in order to find a condo to buy in the next year and a half. Max! We’ve rented homes for the past 3 years and the rent payments have ranged between $1,700 and $2,500 so I am planning on putting that money INTO something rather than let it go to pay someone else’s mortgage, got my drift? I’ll be 26 in January and don’t want to have to worry about a home that needs updates, etc especially at this point in my life where I’m working a lot and such. I don’t have any kids yet and my dog is 6lbs so… no house needed here… yet.

Yesterday I had the chance to cook before heading out to the pool. I made Peanut Noodles with chopped snap peas and celery. I love anything crunchy and green in noodles.

The noodles were good but I added a little spicy peanut sauce and hoisin sauce. I love sauce!! I may have overdone it but whatever. Still good. So I took the rest today for lunch and even had some asparagus that didn’t look too bad :)

Made a grocery trip after we ate at Sichuan restaurant and grabbed a couple of goodies: Bolthouse Farms fruit drink (pics later of all of this), more yogurts, 1% milk for light smoothie days, and THEY HAD NO FRESH SPINACH! I haven’t had a GM in a few days and I’m feeling the withdrawals. I’m so mad! :( I’m going today during lunch and hopefully I can grab it before all of the damn stay at home moms do. I know they’re the ones ruining my life this week! LOL. All jokes, just jokes.

But… I grabbed this. Is he dumb? His wife is going to take him to court for making her look bad then he’ll really be able to live his “young adult life”. IT’S GONE BUDDY, GET OVER IT! John & Kate taking the spotlight from me! Ugh! :P

Anyway, I’m off to work. I’ll share my thoughts on this madness on tonight’s post and I’m going to try and do something with the sweet potatoes. I think (nervous). I gotta call my dad for instructions!

Ciao friends- have a super Monday!!
