Happy Sunday evening!!!!!!! We went to bed around 1AM, my eyes were exhausted from the pool chlorine from swimming but I wasn’t really sleepy! I managed to fall asleep though.

We woke up this morning and got ready to go to church. I made some protein strawberry oatmeal that was so very, very good. I have TOTALLY missed oatmeal. Plus, check out the cute pic of Katie before church… heh.


I had so much fun at church! I taught three 8 year olds in my class by myself today and I really enjoyed it. This one little girl I teach reminds me of myself when I was her age. Very, very tan. Loves swimming and being barefoot. SHE IS SOOOOOO SMART. It amazes me how much she knows about The Gospel. Always wants to answer and HAS an answer. She has memorized lots of scriptures. She is an amazing little girl. They all are!

After church, Katie was super tired and It was apparent with whining and red eyes. I actually had a little bit of leftover oatmeal waiting for me in the fridge when I got home, YUM. I got busy next with this delicious lunch. I am really, really enjoying my random salads.

The mix was quite interesting but WOW, it was GREAT. I even let Brad have a bite of my random combo and he liked it!

Katie eventually went down for nap and I called Mom because I was supposed to walk over and help her clean house… but when I called her, she was sick so we held off on the meet-up today. BOO. I was all dressed in workout clothes and sunblock with nowhere to go. I fiddled online for a while then decided to get the most out of the sun today by……. going to our apartment complex pool and sitting by the pool to tan. I listened to my music, doodled in my notebook and talked to a guy who came to swim that we also talked to Saturday. I stayed out there for about an hour! I ventured home and Katie was awake but I needed some fuel so I made the quickest, best thing –

This went down pretty quick. Katie got up, ate, played and then it started to rain and we got a smidge of a storm. Nothing too big this evening. A few hours after my smoothie, I decided it was time for my dinner salad.
That great thing about the salads is that it’s always so different except for my cabbage, lentils and onions. Those always get a place in my salad!!! I needed a shower after today’s tanning so I refreshed this evening then Brad mentioned my Mom was here? She went to my cousins apartment across the hall though…? I wasn’t sure why! Apparently, she felt better this evening and drove my Aunt over so they could watch the True Blood premiere, lol.

I just finished my oatmeal-yogurt mess for dessert! I went back for a little more raw oats and plain greek yogurt. I’m trying to not eat too much but I’m also trying to get full enough! Still working on that balance since breaking the juice cleanse. Also, still haven’t had my 1st “movement” from the colon yet since starting solid food Saturday. Should be interesting….

Time to relax, drink my hot tea and read my college e-book chapter for this upcoming school week!
