Pros & Cons of Cooler Weather

It was unseasonably cool here today - high of 82 or something like that. This meant two things. First, I FROZE in the office b/c the A/C was still set for 100+ and sun coming through all the windows. Second, it was so beautiful outside that it necessetated eating and playing dominoes outside at our favorite pub. Thankfully they have some yummy and healthy food options.

What I Wore While Freezing in the Office:

I really need to find my sunglasses
  • red shirt and sequined tank (? via Kohls)
  • skirt, shortened by me (thrifted, Goodwill)
  • belt (thrfited, Goodwill)
  • brown leather heels (Manolo Blahniks, thrifted Goodwill)
  • stone earrings & necklace (hand-me-down from a good friend)
What I Ate While Playing Dominoes at Old Monk:


  • breakfast: 1 c. Fiber One Honey Clusters, Almond Breeeze, 2 oz blueberries
  • lunch: turkey sandwich, carrots, sugar snap peas, cherries, and 10 pop chips (meh)
  • snack: string cheese and SoyJoy
  • dinner: smoked salmon sandwich with cream cheese, capers, and lettuce; side salad with carrots, grapes toms, goat cheese, and no dressing; La Fin du Monde (my fave beer)
  • dessert: Skinny Cow ice cream sandwich
What I Did While Multitasking:


I was catching up on the Tour de France, but I also needed to cram in at least a token amount of exercise before I went to bed. My solution? Steal Rand's computer (mine is still melted and broken), stick a pilated DVD in it, and set it up so I could see both the computer and the TV. Tour and pilates! It didn't last too long though. I only managed to get in 16 minutes before I was interupted. Better than nothing, I say.

Total for the Day: 30 points (1759 calories), 4 glasses water, 16 minutes pilates
