Crawfish Boil & Bouldering

April 18, 2019 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

Easter Eggs at Work

Our boss’s boss was giving away Easter candy while someone else was hiding Easter eggs everywhere. We got a little bit of work done since everyone was practically looking forward to what was coming up.

Crawfish Boil at Work

Work hired a company for an all-you-can-eat crawfish boil at a park, alcohol included along with a koozie. We were told not to go back to the office. Crawfish, shrimp, potatoes, corn, sausage, and mushrooms … all for free! They kept coming out from 12 pm to 3 pm.

Excuse my messy hair. The wind was wild. I hope this picture does it justice. They were all pretty much gigantic with big juicy claws and cooked to perfection.

As people were finishing we started getting into groups to chat. I was lucky Rose brought Andrew over! I haven’t seen him since 2011! Amy took a chance on me and Andrew signed off on it back in 2007. If it wasn’t for him believing in me when I graduated out of high school, I wouldn’t be where I am today. My first boss. Forever grateful.

Momentum Bouldering with Erin, John, Christopher

We went our separate ways and then later met at Erin’s. We, along with John and Christopher, went to Momentum for some bouldering. They were having a deal where they could bring a buddy everyday in April. I only had to pay for the shoes, less than $7.

I feel like I did better when I came in December but I will say I did more challenging ones this time around but I also came back with more bruises. This also made me realize how much I’m lacking upper body strength.

Bouldering

Liberty Kitchen | Houston, Texas

My cousin, Patricia, came over from England! She is originally from Canada and have been working over there for a while. Brudda, Tim, Patricia, and I met with Sissy and went to a late lunch to Liberty Kitchen. The Lobster Bolognese is still a hit with everyone.

Patricia loves to Boulder so we found a place and picked up Brett and went. I was surprised how much I could do but also shows how much work I need to do to get that strength. Anyone down to go with me?

2018 Christmas Eve Hot Pot

Out usual Christmas Eve hot pot was a hit. It’s been hours and we are still sitting around and talking and laughing.

It’s been a full day of food and workouts. I am not ready to see how sore I’ll be tomorrow though.

Psoriasis

Sleepy Rocky

Rocky is missing my parents and Rizzo. He slept like a baby on my bed next to me all night.

Veggie Pasta Soup

I made some delicious soup for lunch and I’m excited to have more tomorrow! I’m getting better at soup life.

[2018] 232/365: Psoriasis

For the longest time I’m told I have eczema but today my new doctor proclaimed I have psoriasis. Shots were put in and plans for my skin condition were discussed. Hopefully everything will be better.

June was nice enough to make me pan fried dumplings and cauliflower for dinner while we enjoyed a TVB show.

Workouts, TVB, and Rizzo Time

July 24, 2018 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

I’m still sore from the crash (and all the walking from this weekend) but figured since it’s almost been a week it’s safe to start working out. I pushed through with rowing and kettlebells today. I’m hoping to add resistance bands and resistance loop bands in the routine soon. I really want to join a gym but I have nobuddy (get it? hehe) to go with. I need new friends but also #nonewfriends.

I’ve also been trying to go to bed early. So early that Scruffy called me around ten last night and I was already fast asleep. Don’t worry, I still picked up.

Now it’s TVB and Rizzo cuddles time. It usually takes me a couple of days to finish a series and I’ve been watching this one for almost a month. I’m so behind!

Walking With Rizzo

2018 | 002/365 | Rizzo & Mellie Dee Walk

[2018] 002/365: Freezing On Our Walk

It’s been freezing outside. Rizzo and I are usually huddled up in my room. He’s asleep in bed wrapped with comfy blankets while I job search while watching telly. We went on a glorious walk out in the freezing cold around 5 PM. We did our thirty minutes before heading home for an ab workout. Easy peasy. 2018 is going well for the working out to lose weight front … except it’s only the second day of doing so. We’ll see how long I last.

I have my interview tomorrow at noon. I’m nervous since after the interview, I’ll be handed a test to see my skills. If you know me, you’ll know I’ll be able to do the work, but once you slap the word “test” or “exam” on top, I’ll fail. Sigh, wish me luck.
