Sweet baby Jesus work was crazeballs yesterday. The attorneys are on a retreat this weekend, so they won’t be in the office today, coupled by the fact that it’s a Jewish holiday on Monday, so all three of my attorneys wanted all the work done before they left. I got in early knowing that it was going to be busy but I had no idea. I not only never took lunch, I never ate lunch! I had plans on going to the farmers market and picking up food there for lunch.
Thank goodness for these muffins though! I had a muffin with a hard-boiled egg, banana and strawberries – no picture taken, so you know I was busy! I brought two muffins and ate the second muffin around 3. If you missed it – I posted the recipe yesterday for these low point banana muffins with crackle topping.
Each one is three freestyle points, no matter how many you have. I hate when one of something is 3 points on Weight Watchers, but then if you have two it will be like 8 points – #weightwatchermath
I was supposed to meet my friend Sam at 5:15 before his class started at The Chopping Block last night to pick up the knife he handcrafted for my 10 year giveaway. But I worked late, and didn’t get there until 6 and class started at 6:30, so I had to hurry. I had hopes of walking through the shop for an IG story, but I had to catch the last express train. He did an amazing job! If you are on Instagram, it’s still up on my story.
I was home by 8 – not too bad! I defrosted some Certified Angus Beef New York strip the night before in my fridge, so this dinner was ready in about 20 minutes. This plate was 9 points in all – I only ate 4 ounces of the beef. So many people ask me why I take the time to make a nice dinner for myself, especially when I work late. Well, cooking soothes my soul, so it’s my favorite thing to do after a long day. And I’m worth it!
I was balls to the wall yesterday trying to get everything done, when I saw that Hannah sent me a text. After a recent not so nice comment left on my blog, she sent me this snipet below:
So the message is “you do you boo.” I am not going to change how I talk, dress, wear makeup, or not – to please anyone but myself. My late husband Tony always told me that I was beautiful the way I was – he knew me at 130 pounds up to 180 pounds and his love for me never waned. How lucky was I?!
So I am just going to keep on, keeping on. And I hope you’ll continue to enjoy following my ride 😀
Happy Friyay my friends – make it a great day!
Bummed that you moved the knife giveaway to instagram – thought I had a shot through leaving a blog comment based on your anniversary post! Guess I’ll just have to spend my own money on a knife; looks like his work would be a great Christmas present 🙂
I was wondering why I’m not receiving my emails since Sept. So I email subscribed again and it’s saying that you opted out of them…I tried twice. Really? I was one that always gave you encouragement! So sad! Booooo!
Based on that photo, I would say that “whatever comes next” is going to be a speeding train. Be careful, boo!
Love ya Biz! Those muffins look delish!
I’ve always felt that no one is forced to read a blog. If someone doesn’t like you being you, they should quietly move on!! Your Hannah is very wise.
Best,
Bonnie
Yes, yes, yes!!!! “you do you boo.” Preach!! Love this message so much.
