Back to the Grind

Today I welcomed back one of  my daycare kids. She brought me a wonderful surprise, just what I needed on a rainy, Wednesday morning!

Because I’m a bag-a-holic she brought me a Life is Good tote, a pink pen with a “K” and a yummy bag of peanut butter chocolates that I immediately hid in the freezer from hubby for emergency purposes only! It’s hard to get back in the grind after not doing daycare during the summer so this was a great way to start the week off! :)

After my early morning workout I chow’d down a bowl of cereal with fruit and soon after had a larabar, chocolate coconut chew…not bad.

During naptime I cleaned out the fridge, it’s Wednesday after all and I was planning on getting to the grocery store before summer. I like to take stock to see what I have, is low on and need to get. I HAVE to plan out my dinners and write a list, if not I get home from shopping and I don’t have nearly what I need! As you see in my previous post today, I love to cut out coupons and get the most for my money, it really does add up and some weeks I can save between $20-25 dollars. That’s a post for another day! ;)

Lunch was the usual, Chobani Yogurt, fruit and a cheese stick.

Dinner was even more boring! I guess I’d rather have boring rather than stopping on my way home and picking up fast food like I used to after doing groceries!

Italian Wedding Soup, whole wheat wrap spread with hummus and brown rice chips…

…perfect night for soup, just wish it was homemade! lol

I have a date with hubby, the couch and our dvr!

  2. What a sweet gift. Good call in freezing the chocolates. I would never think to do that. Mine typically just go bad. Enjoy your date night!
