That’s the sound of me crying because I’m still at work.  :(  I thought I was suppose to leave early today!  I should know better… deadlines are never reached easily, are they?

My lunch was really superb, though!  A bright spot in an otherwise dreary and busy day:

The star of the meal was a Grilled Tempeh English Muffin Sammie, which I topped with cucumbers and mustard.  Plus broc on the side.

OK – Tempeh is the BOMB.  Amazing!  Love it! Two thumbs up!  So chewy and nutty.   I marinaded 1/3 a packet in Italian dressing, cut it lengthwise, and grilled it on the George Foreman for a few minutes.  Viola!

Plus, an orange on the side:

And a date about 30 minutes later to quench my nagging sweet tooth:

Work got really loco after lunch, which is why I’m posting so late (sorry!).  I grabbed my usual mid-afternoon snack around 2:30:

Yogurt, Heart to Heart cereal, and granola. Yum!  Carb coma, here I come! 🙂

And by 3:30, work was really getting to be mentally and I felt like if I didn’t chew on SOMETHING, I was going to KILL SOMEONE or eat my entire fridge.  Instead, I just had a little bowl of dry Heart to Heart again.   Like I said, carb coma.

I’m going to try to sneak away a little early and maybe do the 30 Day Shred in my living room.  I don’t think I’ll have the time to get to the gym (wahhh!), so it will have to suffice.

Maggie… in her crate… on her own free will. She has anxiety disorder and HATES the crate, so when I turned around and saw her laying peacefully inside, I was a bit surprised and knew I had to document it.  🙂

Back to the grind… when am I going to win the lottery so I can just be a full-time blogger?  Wouldn’t that be fun?
