WIAW: New Years Day!
First post of 2013! I am way behind on everything blog related (reading, posting, commenting, etc) but still wanted to jump back on the What I Ate Wednesday bandwagon so photographed most (ehhhh some) of my food yesterday.
But first off- NYE was really cozy and nice. Def mellow, but perfect
I didn’t think I had very much to drink, but I woke up with the worst headache and hungover feeling. Ugh.
Eggs and coffee were needed.
Plus a banana and like 3 more cups of coffee.
I couldn’t decide between staying glued to the couch or actually going outside, but luckily Jared decided for me and we went over to Crissy Field for a 4 mile walk along the beach to the bridge.
It was cool and crisp, but sunny out. I felt so much better! We walked…he’s still in an arm/shoulder sling…
Charlie played in the water (the nut…it was so cold out!)
And enjoyed the views
At the end of the walk, we grabbed our lunch from the car and snagged a picnic table to eat before we went home.
I just made an easy turkey and spinach “sandwich” on rice cakes and ate it with carrots and an apple
When we got home, all 3 of us napped and just hung out on the couch for almost three hours. It was lazy and nice (still wasn’t feeling 100%).
I snacked..and didn’t take photos…had another rice cracker with avocado on top and a lime bar (recipe later this week!)
I was productive in the evening after Jared left to watch the FSU game and did yoga, laundry, and checked the rest off my weekend to do list.
Dinner was roasted butternut squash, collard greens, and an unpictured egg (yes another egg!)
And pretty soon after that, I collapsed into bed, ready to start the work week!
I have to say this wasn’t the best New Year’s Day because I felt crummy, but I got to spend it with people I love which makes this year off to a good start. Couple that with no commute traffic this morning and I’m a happy camper!
-Good year so far?
-New year’s resolution?

January 2, 2013 at 10:11 am (140 days ago)Butternut squash sounds so good right about now. I hear ya on the not-drinking-a-lot-but-still-feeling-crappy. I guess my tolerance is just way, way lower than it used to be!

January 2, 2013 at 11:01 am (140 days ago)I was a bit hungover yesterday, but it was more than deserved! We went for a nice seaside walk, too, which never fails to make me feel better. I did wake up with a cold today, though
No fun back at work!
My resolutions are to walk 10000 steps a day and go to bed at 10. Doing okay so far
Rebecca
January 2, 2013 at 11:21 am (140 days ago)10,000 steps is a great resolution!

January 3, 2013 at 3:36 am (139 days ago)I know you said it wasn’t the best New Year’s, but it actually sounds really nice (walk in the park, picnic, lounging, great food) if you weren’t feeling hung over. Here’s to hoping for a better start on day 2 or really 3 now.
Happy New Year.

January 3, 2013 at 6:16 am (139 days ago)I’m the same way with drinks. I definitely drank more than I usually do, but since I normally don’t drink, that doesn’t say much.
I’m trying not to officially make any resolutions, but I am going to try to be more fun. I feel like i’ve become very content doing nothing and I need to work on that.

January 3, 2013 at 6:35 am (139 days ago)I think it would be pretty easy to get outside for a walk with views like that. Beautiful! It looks like Charlie had a good time-love that little guy!

New Year’s Day was very low-key for me–it was really cold outside so I did an at-home workout and read/caught up on Hulu!

January 3, 2013 at 11:58 am (139 days ago)I had a laid back NYE too and it was perfect! And laying on the couch for 3 hours sounds perfect as well, glad you got to do that!
