Happily Domesticated

I have started working out again… So far in the last 3 weeks, I have been making it to the gym on average about 3x a week. I manage to get up at 4:58 am (or sometimes 5:30) and get dressed, let the dogs out to go potty, weigh myself (which is my motivation that I should NOT go back to bed and that I need to get my butt on a treadmill, FAST), grab a Go Girl and head to the gym.

Last week I was still half asleep when I was on my way, that I hit a curb and scraped both wheels on the right hand side of my car… they don’t look pretty. Surprising, that didn’t even wake me up. I should have known it was not a good start to my day. I should have gone right home and crawled right back in bed… but I didn’t.

I have also had this headache for the past 3 weeks…yes, for 3 weeks. I think if she stays any longer I might have to give her a name. How about "if you don't go away I will cut my head off"...sounds pleasant

Matt cooked dinner for me a few nights ago. It was DELICIOUS!! Fried Chicken, Baked Mashed Potatoes (with cream cheese) and green beans. Man it was good.

I didn’t make it to the gym that day. I did the next day though!! After the gym, I found these in the trash. 2 huge EMPTY bottles of oil!!!! This is how our dinner was made…fried in ALL this oil. I am not so happy that I went back for seconds. But it was wonderful not having to cook.

During dinner we watched Antiques Road Show… on the computer. How senior citizen are we? (Jaime don’t answer that) Doesn't Matt look like a little old man who just wants to eat his dinner and watch his program and then go to bed, all before 5 pm.

Matt is always cooking up something random on his days off…

Last week it was deep fried octopus (I just couldn’t eat it…)

The week before that it was Cactus Gumbo. (yes, cactus, like the stuff in the dessert)

We have been going to the local farmers market lately and they have some interesting stuff, like cactus (and they are SUPER cheap too). So Matt is becoming a chef.
