FRIDAY!! :D

Started my morning with a banana and got bundled up for a morning run. Yesterday was the first time in a while that I ran in below 0 temperatures it seems. So there was black ice EVERYWHERE. Had to slow down the pace a tad for safety. Wanted to go for a 7 km but only ended up with 5.7 km due to the pace I had to do and the time limit I had because of errands and what not. I burnt 321 calories. So yesterday was a little less of a hardcore workout day then the past little while has been.
Anyway, I was very chilly after my run. It is getting to those days that when you go for a morning run, you are basically cold ALL day and can't shake it.. no matter what. So I came in to my apartment in hopes of a hot shower and some tea or coffee. My building was having trouble with the hot water. Lovely. I had to make due :(.

I packed up the rest of my bags, had veggies chopped and a box of Strawberries for the ferry ride and we hopped in the car to go off to school. I went to my first class, bought myself a tea and water (because I left my water bottle at home). Matt and I caught the 1 pm ferry and he picked us up Quizno's subs on the way because we had a groupon. It is VERY difficult to find something for reasonable points there, that I enjoy. I went with a regular honey bourbon chicken sandwich on whole wheat and had all the veggies and berries I had packed with it. It was delicious but I knew I had to be good with my water and 0 point items for the next while to keep me held over for a while.
When we docked we hopped on the transit bus, I have never done this before. Usually my parents can pick me up or something but this time it is just me and Matt taking care of things. The bus didn't take as long as I thought, and wasn't as busily and crowded as I expected. We got to the house around 4 pm where my brother and the puppies greeted us. My brother was doing a little work at the house then was off to the gym and off to his hockey game.
Matt and I dropped off dry-cleaning, walked the dogs and made dinner. I made a breakfast dinner because I didn't want to get groceries for the few nights we are sticking about. Chicken bacon, "frog in a wall" aka one egg and a piece of high fibre bread, half an apple and yogurt.
After that I made Matt and I some tea and we went to curl up on the couch to some TV. I made myself some Davids Tea Pumpkin Chai, and made Matt a pomegranate oolong. On my ventures through the cupboards I found my trust cupcake travelers mug. I don't think this would be appropriate for my WW meeting this morning....or is it?

Off to weigh in! :S
