This has been a CRAZY 2 weeks!!!! I have made several dents into my goals for 2011. Over the MLK weekend I travelled to NYC with 3 of my childhood girlfriends :) We went shopping, ATE, took a helicopter ride, ATE and chit chatted. Seriously, I ate a LOT. From sushi, to curry shrimp, to chicken parmigiana and chicken & waffles, I ate 2 weeks of my caloric intake in 3 days! I definitely need to detox. So this week, I have planned out all my meals. By the way, those frozen vegetables by Green Giant are the BEST! Not only are they tasty, but I get my green vegetable intake and can prepare them in less than 10 minutes. lovin it :) I am trying out a new recipe this week, and hope it turns out better than my lobster pasta from the past week. In my defense, it wasn't that awful. I didn't have all the necessary ingredients to make it work and I was snowed in so I couldn't run to the grocery store once I started. But I did learn something new, Rotel is an EXCELLENT sub for fresh diced tomato; much quicker and easier with the same great taste. I just needed another can or some tomato paste to thicken the sauce.
I have to register to get a certified copy of my freedom papers this week. They have been working me like a slave; like they did not get the notice that I have been set free. It is a BUSY time for me as we are in the middle of planning out our fiscal year. It should slow down in the next week or two and then pick up crazy again as we try to finish off the present fiscal year.
So I have made some progress on travelling, logging some pictures, trying out a new recipe and I even went to the gym 2 times this week.........but I failed on getting in good cardio and have only put a dent in my book club selection. The dating story is actually pretty funny this week.........so I was macked by a pastor. Yep, you heard it right, a pastor tried to holla at me in the Harris Teeter parking lot. So here's the scene..... I had just checked out of the self service lane and was heading outside. An older man in a 3 piece gray suit smiled and said, "you know they have shopping carts". I smiled back and said "yeah I know, I really wasn't planning on buying this much " and left the store. I had to do some re-arranging and look up directions in the parking lot so I was still outside when he left the store. Of course he proceeds to my car and starts to chit chat some more. Then comes the killer; he asks if I am married and then proceeds to ask why not. Which is a foolish question to me; why don't I have red hair? why don't I have black nail polish? That's just not the situation right now. But on this day I chose the answer that God hasn't sent him to me yet. Well then he starts to say that we did not meet by chance and this was divine because he is a pastor at a church up north. Now, he didn't have a chance in the first place - not that I am superficial person, but he had on a 3 piece, long jacket suit and was NOT born in the 70's !!!! But he definitely was out the picture now that he announced he was a pastor. Is that wrong of me? I am definitely looking for a spiritual mate who is looking to grow in faith, but I don't think I can date a pastor. I drink wine, I dance, I like secular music, and I detest long praise and worship programs. Pray for me!
