Monday Musings!
My family had an eventful Sunday. So let me introduce the people involved. First we have Kyle...new nephew...preemie one. Karl and Becky, Kyle's padres, Dave and Eryn, other brother, Sam son of Dave, Nathan, son of Dave, and my dear car.
Ahem, here we go. My family, mom, dad, me, Kevin and Nanny, Abby, and Carson head down to Riverton to the blessing of Kyle. Dave and Eryn and brood were not there because Dave was getting released as bishop and put in as stake clerk. So then my dad bailed after the blessing to go to Dave's ward. My mom had her cellphone on in relief society and it went off and she was so embarrassed it was kind of funny. But it was my dad calling telling us that Sam is going to primary children's to get his appendix out. Nice! So then the padre brings the rest of Dave and Eryn's kids down to Riverton and I get to take them home. So the two girls and Nate are in my car and we are driving back to my parents house to change then head to theirs. I hear Nate behind me making odd sounds. So at the stoplight I turned around and he says "I'm going to hurl." I try to direct the possible hurliage but the light changed and he ralphed into his hand. So the next assault I was able to get the window open and he ralphed on the side of my car and a little inside, which by the way someone is riding in my car on Wednesday and I have no plans on telling him which side was ralphed on. Anyway, we get back to the parents house and I'm pretty sure we are done with the volley of chunkiness. So I go change out of the church clothes and we are heading over to their house, but my mom is smart and gets a plastic bag for that short drive. Thankfully he hit the bag for the last and final assault in my car. But my car has been christened and its offical I can now have children. Hooray for me.
My nephew, Sam, is good by the way. He was released from the hospital tonight. Nate is also fine. So things are good. On to other news. I have an ethics exam on Friday for the Utah Bar. That blows. I just need to pass it. I don't want to have to take it again.
So I have a goal:
Return all phones calls and emails promptly. I decided that I need to be a better people person. So that is my goal. If I don't return an email or phone call in a prompt time then let me know! Tomorrow is quote Tuesday! Be excited! I have good ones!
Note: I reread this and it sounds like I was scattered/high when I wrote it. I would, in my defense, like to state that I was talking on the phone and iming someone else while typing this blog. Thank you and good night!

Ravioli and Fruit
So I'm writing this Tuesday but it won't be published until Friday. But here we go, Monday was a not great day. I skipped lunch because I was at the library studying. Dinner it was Cafe Rio salad...but I had no tortilla strips and had only a wee bit of vinaigrette. So while it wasn't the best it was better than it could have been. Today (Tuesday) I munched on junk but then I went to the store to go buy stuff to make cheese and herb ravioli. I've been wanting to make ravioli from scratch for a while but when I got to the store only fruit sounded good. So I ended up coming out with a salad, pineapple (mmmm), bananas, and grapes. I say I made a better choice on that one. I ate all the pineapple and my mouth feels funny now. Haha! But its all good. Mmmm pineapple.
So I addressed this a little yesterday (Thursday) but I have zero energy and so I need foods that can increase that. Lara was very helpful with her comment so I ate an egg today for breakfast. I decided that part of the problem is that I'm not eating period because there isn't really anything at my parents house that I want to eat since a lot of it is not the healthy so I just don't eat. That is an issue. Then I'm so hungry so I eat crap. Like last night I babysat Abby and Carson and ended up eating a corn dog...gag and gag...and ramen noodles. So we are working on eating something. But anyway here is the recipe for the day that I love. I make these whenever I want a hamburger.
Turkey Burgers (I don't really have measurements...I just throw it in until it looks good. Sorry. But I'll guess)
1 lb Lean ground turkey
1/2 cupish of light Feta Cheese
1/2 cupish spinach...I usually buy the frozen kind but fresh works too.
1 egg
Italian seasonings.
Mix it all together and form into patties and cook. Enjoy! :)

Workout uh...Thursday
Janelle was nice enough today to remind me that I failed to post yesterday. Whoops! These posts by the way are going to be short little things. Not long reads you would take into the bathroom. Which by the way if you are taking me into the bathroom I'm a little concerned about our relationship. Ok so working out.
Last week was awesome! I got up at 6:00 and went for runs and it was awesome! This week not so much. I rode my bike to the library yesterday and I actually really liked that ride. It was a fun ride back. The only other thing I did was park at the end of the parking lot at Harmon's. Woo. My issue is not having any energy. Which maybe I should address this on Foodie Friday but I am wondering what foods I can eat to get more energy. But yes like I said I'll address that on Friday. But if anyone has suggestions now that would be great! Ok I'm going to the library to study for the stupid MPRE (that's the ethics exam for being admitted to the bar) and I'm going to bike again. But I think I'll pick a library further away. We shall see!

Quote Tuesday!
Monica Hovey Periera: "I'm going to hate you aren't I?" This is when I told her things she wouldn't be able to eat and workouts she will have to do when I move back in January.
Trista Robison: "Are you stealing her happiness too?" When I told her I was making Monica eat veggies one day.

Blog Makeover!
I've decided to give my blog a bit of a change. I'm going to try to add something daily. I need something to do while at home and I think this will help with some other goals I have besides my boredom while at home. Granted I should be studying for the MPRE but whatever. So here is the plan. (Oh and don't make fun of my attempt to be creative. Some of us are not as witty and creative as others.)
Monday Musing-
This will be my weekly update/thoughts. I like to think I have interesting musing. So here we go.
Tuesday Quotes-
I have decided that I really like random quotes from people! So I'll be adding the weekly quote list on Tuesday's. Feel free to add some if you'd like.
Wednesday Workouts-
I need to be more accountable when it comes to working out. So I'm going to add my list of workouts and things I've done to increase my activity...like parking away from the store or taking the stairs over elevator.
Thursday.....uh no Thursday things...
Foodie Fridays-
I also need to be accountable when it comes to eating healthier. I'm going to include on healthy recipe every Friday and what I have done to eat more goodies like veggies and fruit!
So that is the plan. I don't know how well I do once school starts again. But we shall see.
