Splash.

Thursday started with a splash! Of coffee on my shirt that is. As I walked out the door, I thought about changing and then considered that if my co-workers judged me, maybe I didn't want to work with them anyway :)

They passed…

Anyway, before the splash was a  POW! By my dog.

I got my barbells out bright and early, and Finley brought his too, and we completed a 30-minute strength training video before showering!

Outfit for day three! Shirt is J. Crew
Skirt is Victoria's Secret
Heels are clearance BCBG from Macy's

Started my day with a bowl of apples, blueberry Greek Yogurt topped with PB2 and cereal!

Work today was awesome! 

I had some of my first meetings/discussions and it's SO different from working in a large corporation. The company I took this job with is a very small, entrepreneurial mobile marketing start-up. It's so cool because I actually feel like my opinions are heard and I'm encouraged to be creative and think outside the box. I'm loving this culture!

Thursday was interrupted by…

SUSHI!!!!! Not mad about it. My boss took me to this place that was $6.95 for ALL OF THAT GOODNESS!!!! SHWHAT??!?!?! Mommy likey.

The day went so quickly and I had to gobble this leftover sweet potato and veggies on the way to practice!


Practice is getting more and more intense (and loooonnnnngggggeeerrrr) as we prepare for the games. The nerves are in full force now, my first game is NEXT FRIDAY!!! Oh em gee. I just peed a little.

I can't wait!


Baby Tawk.

Wednesday started out dark and dreary as Finley and I tackled a 3.5 mile run. We started to venture down the Monon Trail only to realize how dark and terrifying it was at 6AM.

So we headed through the neighborhoods and down to broadripple village where things were started to hustle and bustle (mostly just the coffee shops, but still, it provided a another companion in the early morning streets!)



I quickly showered

My outfit for the day!

and gulped don a sabayh. Smoothie as big as your head if you were wondering. Topped with nuts, pb2 and protein cereal!


MONEYY!!!!



Work was spent learning all about how unique and individually we treat each client, and how each program is set up so differently.



And white boarding! Not to be confused with waterboarding...



I am being handed more responsibility now which is great! Hopefully they trust me to gsd (get shit done) as my boss says :) love it!

Lunch was a fun trip to union jacks (I had a spicy veggie wrap and French onion soup) with my boss and another co-worker.


We got to laughing about the music in the place and somehow I ended up saying gang bang right when the waitress came by.

Why was I saying gang bang in front of my boss you ask? She said it first, then I referenced back (don't worry, I haven't totally let loose yet) :) I told you I liked my job! Ha!

Plus we hit Huddles on the way back to work. Not a bad day.

The evening consisted of gobbling down leftover hot and sour soup and lettuce wraps


 heading over to my sister and Aaron's to get some QT.


Look how large and in charge he is!!!! RIGHT after I turned the camera off, we had a 45 minute conversation about the presidential debate and the turning of the economy…but you know…he's camera shy...

He is pretty much almost grown up already :) seeing the Martin clan made my night.


Snacking


And watching house hunters international! OHHHH YEEEAAAHHHHH!!!! Gettin' crazy.

Perfect night.

Didn't hurt that Justin brought me home a Reece's blizzard either that he insisted I have since my photo shoot was over (now I can just be a fat kid for the rest of the season! Haha I wish)

Wanted to share something that had me laughing too before I go!!!!

Report Card Time

Tuesday started off as a great day!

I slept in a little (until 6:20 ha!), then made a morning bowl of Paleo oats, and ACTUALLY ATE IT AT OUR DINING ROOM TABLE!!! Who does that?!?!

Wow, this new job has me being a new woman! I need to remember to eat like they did in the 50's at the breakfast table more often. It's seriously such a great way to start off your day.

Delicious! 

Outfit for day #2!

I dropped Fin off for the day at Doggy Daycare to get out some of his energy!


Morning was spent learning more about our clients, how to set up a mobile messaging program, how to track, report and monitor. It's nerdy, but I kind of love it :) No, I really love it. My favorite part though, is crafting fun marketing messages for our clients! I get to be creative! YAYYYY!!!

Lunch I spent talking to my mom on the phone and eating in Paradise!

Vanilla coffee cake as an appetizer!

Turkey cranberry salad! 

 Black bean!

And MANGO iced tea!! This stuff is going to be addicting just one block from my office! Fan-freaking-tastic.



Someone's ti-ti! Probably from not listening to his teachers at daycare.

We got a report card for his first day of school… yeesh…

Love that they said, "Does not do commands." Welcome to my life. Both of the men in my household would get this report card.



Dinner was a shit show. I went to BodyAttack class tonight since practice was cancelled (Fever Playoffs), and so I left the cooking to Justin. 

Mistake #1.

Long story short, I got a nice little stuffed pork loin, but it wasn't thawed, so even after 35 minutes, it was still raw, so back in the oven for another 25. This time, some parts got leathery and burnt and some were still raw! WTF?!?! 

I was so hungry and pissed by the time we finally though we were going to eat, I ate the rest of my plate




 and stomped upstairs like a 7-year old who didn't get dinner.
