#delivery fail

Started my Sunday by sleeping in until 8 a.m. then hitting the pavement by 9 a.m. for a 5.5 mile walk with the erp.  Thankfully, it was a cool 66 degrees today so I didn’t have to worry about the heat like I did on Friday. Thank you to everyone who chimed in with helpful words of encouragement <3 

After getting home I immediately got in the shower then spent the next hour cleaning the kitchen, doing laundry, making coffee and making breakfast.  By the time I was done I was completely over standing so I spent the rest of the afternoon lounging in bed with the babers.  Dynamite decision.  

While I haven’t gotten any hummingbirds yet at least I caught a cardinal!

Way to hide the package, delivery dude. 

I made the unfortunate decision to take a cup out of the microwave without protective gear and now get this lovely reminder of my lapse in judgement.

I find it so fascinating that by adjusting certain portions in my breakfast I can have such a variety of different meals for roughly the same calorie counts.  This first breakfast shown here with the ginormous tortilla with avocado, sausage and eggs is the same amount of calories as my normal eggs and cheese breakfast.  Crazy town. (I used one less egg, no butter and only 7g of heavy cream instead of 15g)

Dinner Saturday night was leftover chicken thighs and roasted broccoli (what I was making when I burnt my finger by melting coconut oil in the microwave to coat the broccoli in)

When I got dressed for my walk this morning I was struck by how my silhouette is coming back.  Sure, my body has changed and my stomach is puffier than it was pre-pregnancy but I’m really proud of my efforts and it’s exciting to see that reflected.  

Pics from our walk this morning including erp’s most adorable cheeks, one of the many bunny sightings I see every day, and this hidden angry face in the sidewalk.  I actually saw the face as I walked one direction but didn’t stop to capture it because I thought someone was closeish behind me. I kept thinking about the face and kicking myself for not stopping to snap it.  So when I turned around and came back I kept checking every single stick on the ground hoping someone didn’t kick the frown out of place. Just when I was going to give up he showed his angry face again for our viewing enjoyment :)

Whoever mentioned on their blog that they eat cucumbers with salt and pepper is a genius.  Thanks for sharing this refreshing snack!  I paired it with some instant iced coffee for an afternoon pick-me-up. YuM

Breakfast this morning was brussels with bacon and eggs and coffee in our new/old mug.  Kevin’s mom shipped us a bunch of stuff from his old room (hence the giant package cleverly hidden on my porch) including three mugs that didn’t make the trip from CA but three that did!

I was going to put money on gaining weight today thanks to the fact I ate Halo Top last night.  But hooray for a surprise loss!  

Sundays sure are extra special when there’s another day off waiting in the wings!  Now to find something on Netflix to enjoy for the rest of the evening.

Ordered a pepperoni pizza, opened up the box to find it topped with just cheese and pineapple.

Now, I don’t hate pineapple, but I ordered pepperoni. My taste buds were expecting pepperoni.

It was labeled pepperoni. The order on the label was correct. But inside the box.. 🍍🍍🍍🍍 🙃

We’ve all experienced this scenario: You order delivery or you pack a lunch, you get your food, you open the container and find your food is soggy and gross. 

So, that feeling when you get home, check one tracking number....yes! Package arrived, go rescue it from the mail box!

....wait, there’s just one package here. Ok, back to the tracking.

.............what the hell, USPS? How come you only delivered one of my four parcels? The other three are sitting in the post office, even though they arrived the same time as the one you did deliver today....? Not cool, man, they could have all been delivered at the same time, you know!

I dread the thought of only getting a package a day, since it seems like that’s what they’re setting me up for. “All your mail arrived....here, we picked a parcel at random to deliver to you, we’ll do the same tomorrow!”
