My first day back at WORK

On Saturday when we got back into town, I drove to the doctor, only to find out that I do in fact have Strep throat yet again. Lucky ole me. I am on a major does of antibiotics to get rid of it, since this is the 3rd time in 3 months. I think they are tired of seeing me in their office, and just want to take my tonsils out. EEK! Needless to say I called in sick on Monday. That was the worst day. I was so tired, and had just started the medicine, so was super groggy. I figured what was one day. Get this, I slept till noon. I have not done that since high school. I had soup and grilled cheese for dinner. Best soup ever.

That brings us to Tuesday. Eating went well. 

For dinner we had Spaghetti, corn and garlic bread. I didn't take a picture of most of my food this week, why you ask? Cause I am sick and tired, and a little stressed out. That's why. Wednesday, I had yogurt with Chia seeds. For dinner we had BLT's. They were so good. The one thing that I would change is the brand of bacon. I want to try Applegate Farms bacon. It is just so expensive. Side note. I read an article today titled, "Do Higher Prices Make Food Taste Better? Science Says Yes." Check it out.

See. I managed to snap a picture of my yogurt. Props for me I know. Taking a bow.

That brings us to today, Thursday. So far, coffee, and yogurt have made an appearance in my diet. Again no pictures, I have a lot on my mind. Lunch is going to be left over spaghetti from the other night. I have a booster meeting tonight so I will probably have pizza for dinner. Not healthy I know, but we are going to be healthy tomorrow and that is when I normally have pizza, so we are just flipping days. Alright back to work, then to lunch. It has been a long day. I am ready to go home. Knowing it is my Friday makes the day easier to get through. 

Vacation (Part 2)

Let's get going again. Day three was the beach. It has been a little over a year since Averie has been to the beach so I was not sure how she would take to it. She had a blast! It was so much fun to watch her. I look forward to next year, and seeing how comfortable she will be. My beach baby!

After our long beach day, it was time for dinner. Now I don't know how others travel, but when me and my husband travel we like to dine at places that we don't have in our city. I mean we won't go to a Chili's or Chipotle. You know. So when Brian's parents suggested Carrows. I was a little skeptical. I have to say in the end it was a great dinner, and once again I ate all my food. It was so delish.

So sweet they are sharing. 

Last day in San Deigo. It's sad that it is ending and it feels like it went so fast. I mean where did the week go. Our last day we went to a Braves game at Petco park. They lost badly but we had a good time. It was Averie's first baseball game. She did so well. Before the game Anessa, Averie, and I went shopping. I bought nothing. I know something is wrong, and something was wrong. I was starting to feel sick, and I know my body better than anyone. Strep throat again. NOOOO!!

We took the tram to the game. It was a great idea, no worrying about parking here. 

Sustenance for Shopping!

That is basically the end of our trip. It was packed full of a ton of fun stuff. I did not take enough pictures to really capture how much fun but you get the idea. Now back to work and cleaning and running, and eating well. That is after I go to the doctor. Ugh! Until next time. 

Vacation and an Illness (Part 1)

Great combination right!

My week long vacation in San Diego was awesome. I had a great time. Next year when we go on vacation it will be even easier, cause it will just be the three of us. The reason I say this is because, Anessa sleeps late and having a three year old that wakes up early while everyone else is sleeping is not easy. It's hard playing in the dark, and not a lot of fun either.

Let's start with the drive. It was great and I bought a new travel organizer to make it even better. Oh how I love AMAZON! It held books, her drink cup, and a bunch of toys. It was really great to have, and convenient. I would definitely recommend.

On the way down to SD we grabbed some donuts and coffee, and headed onto the freeway. The first day we went to Huntington Beach to watch Nessa's travel ball team play in a National Tournament. It was a very long game. Too long for me. I was entertaining Averie for a very long time. I did have the help of her uncle and cousin. They were a life saver. I honestly cannot tell you what I would have done without them, besides divorce my husband. He no longer is a father or husband when we are at the softball field. Kind of sucks I know, but that is clearly the way he wants it. We are the last thing on his mind. LAST!

Here we go!

Averie and Cousin Luke chillin!

My lifesavers, cuddling. 

We went to dinner at a place called Pizza Port, it was so good. They made all of their beers on site. Love local beer.

My Father in Law picked this beer. It was good, but he has no idea what it was called. 

Walking back to the Hotel from dinner. My Summer girl!

The second day we went to The Breakfast Club Diner, and to Sea World, and had a blast.

More art. 

My breakfast and I ate the whole thing. 

Favorite Breakfast place in Oceanside. 

I didn't get a lot of photos at Sea World. I know it is sad, my phone died and we were rotating the charger in the car like drug addicts. 

This is what I have.

This might have to be a two part post. I am exhausted and I am only on day two. Lets finish off day two at least. 

Dinner is a question mark. I have no idea what we ate. I know we ate though. Wow day two was easier to finish than I thought. *smiles* Look for part two tomorrow. I have a lot of catching up to do.
