The BetterBack Therapy was on SharkTank and I’ve always wanted to try it. I saw one of my co-workers using it to help with her sciatica pain. She said that it worked for her along with doing yoga so I went ahead and ordered myself one. I’ve used it for thirty minutes overall today and I will say my back does feel better. Time will tell if it actually works or if I need to return it.

I do want to do Barre or yoga classes and I’m wanting to find a workout place between home and work. But one thing at a time until my schedule is more settled.

Scruffy and Luna came over today bringing Rizzo home. He looks so happy to be back.

From what I hear, he was a great pup at thier house and I even received a text from Scruffy that he misses his follower because since I wasn’t around for Rizzo to follow, he chose to do it to Scruffy.

[2018] 148/365: My Man

June went and bought things to make for a crawfish boil as we were driving back down from Dallas.

But kudos to the best boyfriend ever. He slaved over the pot in this 100+ degree heat making us crawfish, shrimp, sausage, and veggies. He uses the ice chest steaming method for that amazing tenderness.

We have SO much leftover and I happily enjoyed more at dinner. I believe the best crawfish is when it’s had time to sit for the flavour to sink in.

It’s been a memorable Memorial Day but tomorrow it’s back to reality. Thankfully I took Friday off for the start of Scruffy’s birthday weekend. I cannot wait to give him his present!

Today started with a nice chicken and waffles and other things for breakfast. The office decided on Breakfast Klub. They have one of my favourite fried chicken. Everything hit the spot expect for the potatoes. I really wanted to like them but it wasn’t flavourful enough.

Today was also the day I had my first stressful day at work. It’s surprising, right? It’s been less than a month and I’m already ready to fight. Haha Just kidding. But I’ve never had someone yell at you and tell you to learn to listen better all because I asked a question. Sigh … I’m going to have to learn a different way to talk to her because nothing is working.

[2018] 145/365: Heartfelt Sunset

No worries though because once I left work, vented to my loves, I headed to Dallas and saw this gorgeous sunset. It made my heart super happy.

I’m extremely happy because I was able to get this shot in a moving car, don’t worry, I wasn’t driving, and I get to have family time and above all else, spend time with my niece.

This morning wrecked havoc on my anxiety. I was navigating through streets to find the building of where my conference was going to be at and one wrong turn ended me in the school drop-off lane. It was an elementary school which meant teachers or parent helpers were helping the kids out the car by opening the doors. It was super awkward when the lady came to my door and there was no kid. haha

I ended up being early stopping at Walgreens before going into the building where I was greeted with breakfast from Pappa’s BBQ. After three presentations and a break, it was time for lunch.

I think they have some kind of contract with Pappa’s because we ended up having Pappasito’s delivered for lunch! I forgot how delicious their meats are!

[2018] 144/365: Cuddles with Rizzo

A few more presentations and Q&A later, grabbing a free water thermos, I was well on my way to the Mexican market to buy taco meats for Scruffy. Then it was time to cuddle with Rizzo. Scruffy and Luna came later for dinner with the parents then a guitar session before he took Rizzo home with him for Memorial weekend.

I cannot wait to see my niece! EEEEEP!!

Workday started with … FREE BREAKFAST … what else. I am genuinely surprised that Jason’s Deli does a bomb ass breakfast! Everything was super delicious, even down to the strawberries. All big and juicy!

[2018] 143/365: Plethora of Food

I went over to Scruffy’s after work for dinner with his family including Rami, Caitlin, and Nana. YUM! Everyone dissed the ribs saying that it was too smokey but I LOVED them! As well as everything else on the table. I have a few leftovers to enjoy tomorrow. Eeep!

I get to go to a conference tomorrow, which is closer to my house, than driving downtown to the office! WIN! I’m hoping that I learn enough else it’ll feel like a waste of time. Oh well, when your boss tells you to go, you go!

[2018] 141/365: Too Busy to Eat

Okay, that’s a lie. Kind of. I was stuck in a meeting from seven to nine in the morning resulting me into missing free breakfast! I went with another coworker to get a Dunkin Donut coffee (I got the hash browns too). She wanted something else and so we went to the floor where the free breakfast was and we found that a few selections were left (mostly eggs and carbs), so we dished up! We didn’t think there would be any left so we were glad we made that pit stop. YUM!

Today marked three meetings in one day. I love these meetings because it makes the day go by faster. Before I know it, it was lunchtime. We were still working so I didn’t get to heat up my lunch and instead we grabbed free pizza in the hub to eat at our desk while we worked. Then it was time to go home. I have been SO awake all day. Is it bad to be so excited for tomorrow?! I don’t have many meetings but enough on my agenda to keep me excited.
