I love it when people think of me when they get lots of good food for not so much money, haha =]

Hahah, well all the farmer’s market talk we did when I was living down there, I felt it was only appropriate to share it with you!

For $13 I just bought:

-2 fennel bulbs
-1 bag of three romaine hearts
-1 2lb. bag of carrots
-1 bag of four slicing cucumbers
-1 5lb. bag of bananas
-2 lb. container of strawberries

I was going to throw up $4 more dollars and get a bag of 12 kiwis and a 1lb. Container of blueberries for AM smoothies. That sounds so good now. Haha. I need to remember…baby steps. Once I get paid and if I enjoy the smoothies, I’ll be back.

Rad! what was your time?

It was 15:56! Every quarter mile I ran .10 of it except for the last quarter…I ran .03 and said fuck that.

I’ve been seriously working out for almost a month now. And it’s not only getting easier, it’s becoming a game. Like I want to do more in a shorter amount or time, and/or go longer. I’ve been trying to push my workouts to 34 mins. so that if I maintain 3.4 mph, I can squeeze in 2 miles.

I’ve been using the mapmyfitness app, and oh man it’s the greatest thing ever. You can also track calories (what you intake and what you burn), weight, inches (on waist/hips), water intake, and then you can visually see it all if you go to mapmyfitness.com - They just revamped the site (if you don’t already use it), and you can actually put in specific goals, and look at charts and stuff. And every Friday morning I get an e-mail with how many workouts I did that week, etc. And honestly, it’s actually been rewarding, and much easier to find the motivation to go to the gym.

But anyyywayyy, this was too long of an answer that should have stopped at the first sentence…So I will leave you with this to check out:

This is what my workouts look like currently. The bottom being the most recent (from tonight). The ones that just say WALK, I used the GPS/Mapping/Route tracker of the app (which is so cool!).

Seriously, it’s the best app I’ve ever downloaded for free and actually utilized.

Looks like everything near my parents’ house, haha.

How could you possibly sleep at night? Haha

yeah, it seems like a slow weekend…but, that’s a good starting place to find shows at the main bars/venues for future reference….also keep this handy-> newraleigh.com/calenda…

awesome. just added it to my favorites. thanks!

Mike is gone most weekends playing in the band all over SC and GA. This weekend he is gone three days, and I have to somehow keep busy since I do not have a job right now. (which believe me, I’ve applied at plenty of places!)

So I will be working on applying for jobs, and probably some light painting, etc.

thanks again!

mrbarkey replied to your post: The more access my friends gain to social media…

My blog has gotten a lot less personal because of that…I know too many people on tumblr now, and I have to go vent about certain people on other social networks that I know these people don’t have…it’s stressful, haha

Exactly. Some people I know are…supporting/loving but judgmental and while I know they have my best interests at heart, I feel like I can’t be myself with them anymore as the decisions I have made, I know they will not agree with. And it has really water-down my facebook/instagram, etc to just boring crap because I don’t want to post these other things, and sit around worrying what they might say, etc.

I know I sound crazy, I promise you, I’m not.
