The New Year!

I didn't make a resolution to be a better blogger.... I knew it wouldn't happen!

But I did make a resolution to exercise for 45 min a day 6 days a week. Its the 27th and so far so good, minus 2.
I also gave up sweets... I LOVE sugar. Me and Buddy the Elf are 2 peas, 1 pod. But I did it... kind of. Maybe I didn't eliminate it but I have totally cut back! Like to the point of covering my mouth and nose in the presence of doughnuts (that was a rough day)!

I am in it for 12 weeks. We will see. So far its slow and painful. After 12 weeks I get to quit and sit on the couch like a bum everyday after work! Sounds exciting but I am sure it will work cause i've already lost 5 lbs so that day will never come!

Since I gave up all things I love I have improvised with a few things that help the cravings. I eat fat free strawberry cream cheese with graham crackers and carrots with peanut butter. It has really gotten me through some tough days!

P.s. I tried to post pictures it won't let me!

Finito















I am happy to report I survived my first Graduate Class! It was really hard and overwhelming especially when I missed 2 weeks due to surgery! But I came out alive and with an A-! Maybe I can go to Grad School after all!?!?!?

Addicted!

So I should be writing a paper but instead I am bundled up in my FREEZING apartment and thought I would update my blog!

Pumpkin Spice Whoopies














These were posted on this little blog. I couldn't wait to try them because let's be honest Pumpkin and Cream Cheese were meant for each other! They di
d not disappoint. I have made them 4 times for different things and haven't met anyone yet that doesn't love them! Give them a try!

These are my next attempt. My cute friend Jennie brought them to work and they were Fantastic! No wonder people gain so much weight during the holidays! Yummy!



















Recipe Found here!

White Screen of Death

Have you ever seen this screen on your iPod? I have. I saw this screen right after I flung my iPod across the room at the gym. I was 3 min into my workout and this was very upsetting. It was a LONG and PAINFUL 27 min!


However it was more upsetting when I realized that this screen should have said "You're Screwed" or "You are shit out of luck!" My iPod is broken! I shook its brain loose!

I am so mad at Apple for giving me false hope that I'll I have to do is plug it is and it will be fixed..... SIKE!

I'll get over it I am sure... like right after I get a new one! Maybe a touch????

And This Is Where I Found Them!


















According to my mother I live in the GHETTO. I could be murdered at any moment and people are lurking outside my door all the time. Considering my keys were left in the door all night long in the "GHETTO" and I wasn't murdered and my car wasn't stolen I think I am safe.... or lucky! Either way I am grateful!

P.S. Please don't tell Mama Jan!
