Solar Powered

Tomorrow is my last day as an insurance agent. I used up all of my left over vacation time today, and took the day off, which was really nice considering between my two jobs, I've been working 7 days a week for the past two weeks.
So I spent my day at home hanging out with my kitties, and Riley, and then in the evening my mom, brother, uncle and I met at my grandma's restaurant (The D&R Depot) for dinner. I had a lovely chicken caesar salad (I point this out because it's the ONLY healthy thing I've eaten in weeks #FitnessUpdate)
After dinner we went to a solar energy seminar which provided information on using solar panels to produce electricity in both residential and commercial settings.
It may sound boring, but I found it to be very interesting. It's something that we're looking into putting in at the Old House, so I'm trying to get as much information about it as possible.
We actually have someone coming out tomorrow to give us an assessment.

Fitness update

I am laaaazy.

Today I didn't eat anything at all..until my lunch at work (around 4pm) simply just because I forgot.

I do that some times...I forget to eat.

For lunch I ate an ice cream sandwich. (It was delicious. Andies Mint. Yum)

When I got home from work around 10pm I ate a bowl of cereal. 

And I did not work out at all.

This is exactly why this was not a resolution. 

Earl Gray ice cream. Real thing.

My New Years Non-Resolution

A lot of people make resolutions for New Years, and let's be real, how many people actually keep them? So that is why this is not a resolution. It's just a statement. I fully expect myself to have forgotten all about it within a week or two.

I've decided that I'm going to take better care of myself. Simply because it makes me feel better.
About once a year (not always after New Years) I go through a couple of months where I will eat healthier, and work out, and generally take better care of myself, and it always makes me feel better, and happier. Unfortunately it never lasts. (and it probably won't last this time either)

But that's okay.

There's a really great website that I love using. It's called Live Strong It provides you with health tips, exercises, and a tool to count your calories, and track your food. Very helpful.

In an attempt to keep myself on track, I'm going to try to post about my progress. Don't hold your breath though. I'm really not good at keeping up with these sort of things.
