so this has been a long, tiring, fun day. i woke up bright and early and took the dogs for a good 40 min walk. it rained on us a little, so we were speed walking between awnings. when i got home home and got ready for work, i remembered to pack my tofu scramble burrito from yesterday and a few pieces of fruit and a beautiful pink thermos of coffee. i'll have to take a pic of the thermos next time i use it. i love it! it was a gift from m best friend. i like it because it keeps my coffee nice and hot and allows me to drink to it out of a regular coffee cup and not a travel mug.

off to work i go. before class starts i heat up my burrito in the microwave and pour my cup of coffee. i like to save leftover burritos for work because i don't have a microwave at home. my microwave died in the fall and i decided not to replace it. i like not having one. it makes me eat healthier and eat less. (do i really want to turn on the oven to heat that up?) but, the convenience of one at work is nice.

while at work, i got a lunch invite. i get home from work at about 1, we head to lunch around 2. we had planned to go to the fresno breakfast house, but they close at 2 and were just a little too late. so instead we tried a new place (new to us) - the sandwich works. i had a veggie sandwich. it was really good - nice hoagie roll with lettuce, wax peppers, mushrooms, sprouts, avocado, tomato, probably other stuff i can't remember.

this held me over until about 8. i don't like eating this late, but sometimes you can't help it. i made a really good sandwich - thin bread, vegan cream cheese on each side, cucumbers, sprouts, peppered tofurky slices - annies mixed bunnies and strawberries on the side.

now, im sitting on my couch trying to talk myself into working out. i should do day 2 of my women's health workout, but . . . my thighs hurt so bad!!! i think i might have pulled muscles. i have to walk upstairs at home and work and it is a serious challenge, especially in heels. day 2 involves lots of squats and planks - i might try the planks to see how it goes. i am never sure - should i rest sore muscles or do i need to work them out? granted, i am on my feet all day and i did walk this morning, so is that enough?

off to make the big exercise decision - sorry for the lack of pictures today.
