Happy Hump Day!
I just have to get through my 10-hour shift and then I get tomorrow
off. WhoooHooo! Kenyon and I have booked a massage tomorrow
afternoon and I’m getting the hot stone added to mine. Hello relaxation and time with my hubby. I am super excited.
National Public Safety Telecommunications Week is well
under way. The administration staff
cooked up hamburgers and hot dogs on Monday and they will be here cooking again
today as it is a different crew on. I
worked Monday and am working overtime today so, I get two days of food. Heck ya!
On Monday my Apple Watch switches over for the week
after giving me the summary of the prior week.
I have set a goal to complete all three of my Apple Watch circles each
day.
- Burn 350 active calories
- Exercise for 30 minutes
- Stand for some part of each hour for a total of 12 hours
So far Monday and Tuesday went well. I walked on the treadmill at work Monday (45
minutes total) and made an appearance at Curves yesterday.
It was a busy day at work yesterday as I was working a
grant shift for our Commercial Vehicle Specialists. I think I only stood up twice in that 5.5
hour shift. Thankfully I was able to
still get in 12 hours since I was awake until 8pm. Whew.
It has been a social-outing week so far as I had plans
to meet friends on Monday evening at The Counter in The Village. They have a deal where you get a flight of
four mini beers and four mini burgers all for $13. I wasn’t super impressed with The Counter but
I did end up liking two of my mini beers.
My beer picks were McCall Lemon Ginger (really good), Boise
Brewing Co Snowboarder Porter (sooooo good), Odell Brewing Company 90 Shillings
Ale, and a Honey Blonde Ale but I don’t remember from what brewery.
The four mini burgers were pre-selected for you. I shared mine with Kate and forgot to snap a
photo so Danielle let me snap a photo of hers (she ate one already).
I had a lunch date with my friend Jenny yesterday but then she
cancelled. I ended up getting an invite
for drinks with my friend Brenda, whom I have recently reconnected with. We met at Kona Grill in The Village and ended
up with a seat at the bar. I like
watching the bartenders make drinks. It
is so much fun. They have a great happy
hour menu but the prices are a bit steep.
I decided to be adventurous and try the Sake Sangria: gekkeikan sake,
fresh squeezed fruit, and seaglass gruet brut sparking. It was only okay as it could have been
sweeter.
Brenda and I shared a margarita flatbed, which was
really good. Kenyon decided to join us
when he got off work. He ordered some
spinach and artichoke dip and avocado egg rolls. The flatbread was really good so we also
ordered a pepperoni one to share.
Despite my better judgment I gave in to the tipsy feeling and ordered a Sam
Adams seasonal beer which was the Summer Ale.
It was nice, light, and refreshing.
I met Kenyon for lunch yesterday after Curves and we went
to Mongolian BBQ. I haven’t been in a
while and it really hit the spot. Sadly
Kenyon added curry to his bowl by mistake and his was horrible. Poor guy.
The social outings continue today when I meet Phoenix
at 6pm for margaritas. This isn’t helping
my weight loss efforts but I sure am enjoying the time with my friends.
Happy Wednesday!
