Updating during lunch again. I should really make this a habit. I just had one of the best lunches ever, but that could probably be because I was positively starving since I only had hazelnut coffee for breakfast (completely unintentional; I brought my banana and oatmeal but was running around all over the place getting things ready for this Saturday’s event that I never got a chance to sit down and eat 🙁 ).

But yes. Leftover homemade chipotle tortilla soup and white corn tortillas slathered with Laughing Cow cheese (2 wedges) and raspberry chipotle salsa. I can feel the heartburn creeping up my esophagus. Totally worth it :D.

We gotta get back on the ball tonight and work out. I had a massive headache all day yesterday. Apparently my body is aging and staying up till 4am on Saturday is a big no-no. I didn’t really sleep in much the next day either so I’m attributing the headache to lack of sleep.

I had to pick up a prescription for myself after work yesterday, handle another matter and then pick up Mom’s prescription. I was all over the place and it didn’t help my headache one bit. Emily was dropped off after work and she snacked on stuff while I made dinner (bacon and turkey sandwiches with Monterrey Jack cheese and grilled onions & green bell peppers). We sat and watched TV (miracle!) and then Jorge got home and I made his dinner. Emily and I followed him to the bedroom, where he was watching the game and she and I cuddled in bed. The last thing I heard was, “Cutie girls…” before I drifted off. I woke up suddenly (probably during one of Jorge’s outbursts ’cause the Cowboys were winning :P) and tried sitting up to stay awake. Jorge said to take a nap, sleep off the headache. He’d wake me up when the game was over so we could work out.

I woke up at 11:15…and we were all passed out on the bed, including Ruffles LOL. I transferred Ems to her bedroom and then we showered and went to sleep. I slept till around 7:30 and felt like a million bucks! We’re gonna try and double our workout tonight. My pants are fitting loose from the few workouts we get in per week and from eating mostly homemade meals; I’d like to know what my results would be if we actually worked out every day!

Ok. Back to the grind!

I have two entries that I started (the first was started on September 3rd, I believe!) and I never finished, much less posted them. I have about 20 minutes left of my lunch hour, so let’s see how much I can type up. And hopefully post, heh.

I had a lunch meeting for one of my events so I barely took lunch at 1. Damn you, Jason’s Deli >_<. Even though I only ate half of the mountainous roast beef sandwich, I ate...2 cookies *sigh*. My weakness. Work has picked up in the last few days, thank you Jesus. My events are all getting closer (the first one will be the 1st of October!), so now we're getting busier. I always feel useless when I don't have anything to do and I feel like I'm being watched, hehe. Work was crazy busy for me yesterday, collecting logos for the aforementioned event. And working on the event from November and everything in between. I stayed to work Michelle's event yesterday (hence switching nights with the kids with Mario). We picked up the finger-foods from Tony Romas. I had 2 mozzarella sticks, half a nasty potato skin and...2 Subway cookies. I tell you, WEAKNESS. Once we were done with registration for that event, we went over to the Art Village for the Fashion Show. It was pretty neat. We totally missed the free sushi from Kohnami (sp?) but we had some awesome spicy food from Frida's. The owner is always super nice to us. Michelle's hoping to have her birthday party there and he said he'd make room :). We had a few hardly-alcoholic beverages, enjoyed the show and then helped with things here and there before I went home. I love my job (most of the time, hehe!)!! My babe was already home and I called the kiddos up. My poor girls have been sick for 2 weeks already. They'd just been getting over another cold and got sick again. I took Emily to the doctor on Tuesday and she seems to be getting better. My poor Aly still has terrible congestion. Damn those Pre-K germs!! I changed while Mom made dinner. We all ate together, I made us an awesome fruit salad:

We ate it while we watched a movie. And of course, I dozed off for about half an hour. He gently roused me with a kiss on my cheek. We’d planned to make some Margaritas so we went to the kitchen.

My co-workers wanted to go out that night, and they ended up doing so, but I was giddy-happy and 100% comfortable sitting on the back porch in the balmy night with my babe, drinking our Margaritas on our night off from P90X. He was doing his crossword on the iPad while I laughed my butt off reading Damnyouautocorrect.com and texting with Michelle about her night out. I just feel so blessed with life. I want to feel like I do now, always.

Tonight I pick up my babies :). So I retract my previous statement. I want to feel like I will tonight, surrounded by my heart, always <3.
