I have had a productive day, I got a test grade back and did surprisingly well. I am really bad about studying for things that may not affect my grades very much. Yes it was a midterm, but it was only worth 40 points out of 320 points for the whole class. I got 33 of the points, but I could have been better.
There is one thing that I do have to say though, I got stuff done today. It was really relieving because I finished three papers that were each about 5 pages each. Then had time to make myself lunch of red pepper hummus with wheat thins and lentil soup. It was filling even in the absence of meat. I also got to make breakfast sandwiches for my self. I made them up and saved myself a ton of money. I can make like 12 of those little sandwiches for about 3 dollars instead of 4.50 for 4 of them that aren't as good as my own.
Then the fiancee came home and we ate a casserole that I made and it was surprisingly yummy. I was a little bit scared, but it turned out great! Well for tonight I'm settling into another paper and studying for my Generalist exam.

Been on hiatus
I have been neglectful once again, it is really easy to say, oh no writing tonight, I'll wait until tomorrow. Its OK though I will always come crawling back apologetically. I have been pretty busy lately. Of the six classes I am taking three of them involve twenty hours of field work . It has been a great experience though. I am just trying to keep calm and relax, it is all I can do to make it through.
I want to talk about yoga, my favorite position today is the Plow pose or for you yoga purists, Halasana.
www.YogaJournal.com is an excellent place for finding new poses and building home practice.
I must depart since class is going to start with or without me.
Breakfast- Jimmy Dean D'light (Canadian Bacon, egg white, cheese, light english muffin). 230 calories
1/4 of a can of regular Dr. Pepper, (some one stole my green tea) 38 cal.

Interesting
Running around like a chicken with it's head cut off is how I spent my day.
I really did have fun though, my day started off with school at 8 am, then I went from there to my house. I got to hang out for about an hour which made things real nice. Then I went to my very first laser hair removal appointment. I surprised myself by being relatively calm.
I have heard it can be painful at times. I did it, yes no wussy here! After having a lovely conversation with the lady doing the "lasering". I met up with my little sis, we hit the gym real hard. Thirty minutes of cardio then lot of free weights for arm sculpting. I finally got home I was red in the face.
Instead of relaxing, maybe for a little while I decided I needed to do homework.
Then study for my educational psychology exam, which is actually really colorful for typed notes.
I stopped in between to have a second lunch since my first consisted of cottage cheese and a banana. I ate lentil soup, which was a little frightening because it might taste funny! :/
It tasted great by the way, I chopped up a little onion, cilantro, and a quarter of an avocado. I didn't want to take a picture because it didn't look like the picture on the front of the can. It tasted divine and I will enjoy the other half of the can at a later date.
A while later I decided that I had to make our dinner for Tuesday night, I planned to make shepherds pie and it was accomplished. Here are some fun photos of my prep skills.

A new-ish start
I have made a commitment to my poor little blog and I really want to keep it. I know I have neglected it but now is the time to get back on track.
So I'm going to start by saying I started this blog because I love food, I love it a whole, whole lot. Now I am trying to take a more pro-health stance on food, rather then who marvelously delicious my food is. I will never stop loving food, but right now I want my body to be at an optimal level. I am going to start tracking my activity level and my food intake for the day on my blog. I am also going to keep my great personality involved so no worries.
Here we go on a new journey, I'm at school right now, I should be reading this book for my class but am pushing it to the last minute, like always. Did I mention that I am taking 18 hours that involve 60 hours of field work? It is true, but I will try and revive my commitment for the day!
Down to the Nitty Gritty!
