guess what day it is!! haha 

but seriously, am i the only one who is happy that this week is already half way over? i doubt it.

today was pretty ho hum. mellow. okay, i'll admit it was pretty uneventful. it could have been much worse though. i will gladly take a boring day over a terrible one.

i had a little stressed-out-mommy moment when i woke up to a sick pup. my poor little poodle doo, paisley, has a stomach bug. :( it's not the first time it has happened (so luckily, i know how to treat it sans vet visit), and thankfully it isn't anything too serious. still, i felt like a horrible pup mom leaving her alone all day because i had to go to work. i secretly wish i could stay home to care for my pup, just like the moms i work with do when their kids are ill. and i mean no disrespect, i realize humans and animals are so, so different. but seriously, oh man do i wish i could. poor thing can't hold anything down. i typically wait a day to give her anything. sometimes it's a day bug, and her immune system comes out swinging to knock it out. if she hasn't improved significantly by morning, i'll give her a baby dose of Pepto to help her teeny tiny immune system along. 

post bath time. she looks so funny wet!

other than that, i had a killer spin session today. there were only three of us, which was awesome because it was like having my own private spin class. :)

now that the temperature has dropped, i am quite enjoying my soup meals. soup. soup. soup. so many different options! all warm you from the inside out. today's dinner was black bean soup (a la TJ's). i topped it with vegan cheese, vegan sour cream, salsa, avocado, and chives. the veggie flaxseed tortilla chips i picked up at TJ's pair perfectly. i have this thing with dipping things in my soups. 

and that was my day. :)

i hope you are all having a great week so far!

ps, tomorrow is western day at work, and oh man, am i excited to bust out my cowboy boots!
