Fitting It All In

Hey Lovelies!  I hope you are doing well- we made it past Monday, always a good thing in my mind!  Thanks for your sugary sweet comments- I really appreciate them and like I say before- HOURS of makeup ya'll!  The rest of the time I have my hair sticking up in a bun and I'm wearing boring work clothes or yoga pants.  Love me some yoga pants :)

So last time I left you, I was going to a baseball game at AT&T Park in San Francisco.  I'm not a huge sports fan and it's taken me all of 26 years to appreciate one sport (hubby brainwashed me), but the stadium is one of the best (and prettiest) in the world, so I love going!
Believe it or not, I didn't eat anything there because I was -ahem- still thirsty from the wedding we attended the night before.  If you do go, the stadium is world famous for their garlic fries- you won't be disappointed.

Fitting It All In
Ah- so the topic of my post. Today was spent commuting for two hours, working, walking to my house, working out, and then school. Phew!  I left at 8:00 and I came home at 10:00 PM!  Today I fit all of my dinner into this bag:
Not my proudest moment, but not the worst.  I used the rest of my pinenuts and made a homemade trailmix of almonds, high fiber cereal, kumquats, dried berries, and a new natural granola bar from Powerbar.  As per usual, I picked around and only picked out the stuff I like, which can get annoying when I share trailmix, but I don't get annoyed at myself!  I'm a little overbooked and I usually like it, but these days, I'm juggling my super intense job, working on my thesis (eek!), regular workouts, and life!  Just like when I was planning my wedding, I get a little frazzled and try to do everything at the same time, so perfection is far from my vocab and I think it's good for me!

My workout in between work and school was pretty dope!  I did legs, elliptical and bis, and increased in my bicep curl weights, so I made sure to grunt extra loud when I lifted!  I came to class a little less glam, but felt ten times better!


Questions for you: What do you think about perfection?  Do you omit the less than perfect details about yourself in your blog?

I'll be back with regular food posts soon that don't come in a baggie!

I do the same with trail mix - pick out just what I want! As for perfection, I am a perfectionist, but since I don't really have a blog where I blog about daily life, I don't worry about it when it comes to the blog,

Hmm...my blog is more about recipes than my life, so I don't worry about including or not including the non-perfect details. But it does stress me out when I try a recipe that doesn't work, and I still have to post it!

I think everyone picks at trail mix- come on, no one likes the raisins more than the M&Ms, right?

I definitely leave some of my faults off the blog, but not all of them! I'm sure there are a few that show through :)

I really need to take Andy to a game there one of these days. It would be fantastic.

I'm not perfect and I am totally proud. Maybe I'm crazy.

I am not perfect, and I try and show that through my blog. I don't work out very often, and I eat fries when I want them :-) It's all good!

I'm the kind of person who has a very positive attitude about life. I do have my down days which I usually don't share on my blog but that's my choice! I want to keep a good and inspiring message going : )
