Hubby is home



Today is my Friday! It's so beautiful out today! I woke up this morning and the heat wasn't turned off in my bedroom and oh boy it was so warm!
I looked up the temperature this morning and it was around 24 degrees in my room! I rather it being cold in my room through the night, the reason being is because I get headaches when I get up in the morning!!
I'm going to keep hydrated today and drinks a lot of water so that it goes away!
It was weird this morning not to wake up to No coffee smell...
I got myself a coffee at work with 2%milk they didn't have skim milk! Coffee is seriously my red bull in the morning!!It's a must have!
I brought from home a 50kcal Gatorade and my 100kcal fibre cereal bar!!
Today my hubby gets home oh yeah! can't wait! I have to pack tonight for our weekend getaway and finishing up some laundry! Can it be 4pm already? Lol!!

It started raining in the middle of the day boohoo and it did get a little chilly!
Not fun but I'm glad the cold writer days are over!!! I got home cleaned up a little bit, folded the laundry, and turned on the dishwasher!! I also changed my bed sheets for summer sheets!! The winter sheets we had on were way too warm!!! We got these nice 500 thread count sheets from his mom for Christmas! Love them!!

I don't have a menu ce soir, I cleaned up the fridge and emptied all of the leftovers that were just sitting there and now we're out of food.. Maybe a burger and some home made fries.. I've been wanting to have something with carbs.. Usually I am pretty good at not eating carbs when I crave it but I feel like my body needs it! So we might just pick up something and might as well have a nice burger lol :D

If somehow my wifi connection doesn't work up there, I will for sure catch up on all of the blogs :) and I promise to have a lot of pictures!! :)  I hope you guys had a great day today!

XOXO

Hump day jour -1

Live*Love*Laugh
Woke up at 9ish this morning, I love sleeping in! I feel energized! I couldn't set the coffee timer yesterday I forgot to buy coffee this week and I don't have enough to make some this morning! So knowing that yesterday night I put the leftover coffee from the day before in a Tupperware lol and left it in the fridge so that I would be able to warm it up in the morning! Must say Great idea! I also made myself a spinach omelette this morning! I had time to sit and enjoy my coffee; it was Nice! I even had time to read some blogs before leaving to work!

Today is hump day! We're almost done this week! Counting the days down!! -3 days and hubby and I are off to the cottage! I remembered his parents talked about the wifi connection they added to their guest rooms at the spa/ cottage! So that means..... That I'll be able to write my blog and share some pictures from our trip!!!=)

I am still a bit sore from Sunday; hopefully I'll feel a bit better before our trip! If there is still some snow we might go snowboarding again or snow shoeing! I hope Ill be able to get my weekly activity this week & that it won't cost a lot of $$$!

Today is my late shift at work; I am doing the 12-8pm! So far so good... It's actually quiet today at work it's probably because of the nice weather we've been having lately.
I had my lunch/dinner at work today; I brought some hearts of palm with the fish that I made Monday and some asparagus!! It was really good and filling, I also had some butter cookies (2) for my sweet tooth!! I am full and hopefully I won't be hungry after work...

Hubby is coming back tomorrow and I can't wait to be with him and catch up on our week! I missed him!! He is back for about 2 weeks at home now J and we're 2 days away from our mini vacation!! Yes!!! Road trip!!


I hope everyone had a good Wednesday!

Going back to work J and finishing up my groceries list. Xoxo


Love & Kisses

Jour -3

Hi everyone!

I woke up so early this morning mika decided to play under the bed with his little tiger! How I love my cat! I tossed and turned for about 15min and then decided to get up had my morning coffee and got ready for work! Thanks to the timer in my coffeemaker it was ready when I got up!


Since I washed my hair Sunday I didn't have time to straighten it and I have to admit I was kinda lazy to do it lol
So I let it curly...but it's a lot harder to manage my curly hair!! So this morning I put some mousse in it and some spray to keep the curls round do they don't puff up! Everyone thought it was pretty except me of course lol I guess we're never happy with what we have right? lol



I got home from work today and omg I love this warm weather! Love the sun shinning in the house, my windows and patio door are open! Enjoying every bit of it!! All the snow is melting can't be happier! Also today is officially Spring!!! :)


Tomorrow I'm doing the late shift I already set my alarm for 9:30am! I start at 12 and end at 8pm! it's going to be a long day! Usually it's not that busy past 5pm at work, I'm going to bring a book an read a bit at work!

Tonight le menu is baked asparagus and spaghetti sauce without the pasta!
I wanted to eat something tomato-ish and had some frozen spaghetti sauce in the freezer! Perfect! It took me 20 to cook the asparagus and heat up the sauce! It's amazing and carbless :)


I hope everyone had a good Tuesday and enjoyed the beautiful weather wherever you are! Xoxo

Here we go again*

Happy Monday everyone!


Hubby left this morning..I'm going to miss him a lot but at least this week we both have Friday off and were going on a ROADTRIP! oh yeah* love Roadtrip with my baby!         I think I told you guys that we are going to his parents for the weekend and relax all the time.. I can't wait...4 more days to go!

Thinking about that right now, I am not sure if they have a wi-fi connection there but I promise to blog as much as I can and take lots of pictures! =)

Waking up in the morning is always brutal eh! I can't seem to get better at this! lol Mondays are always the toughest I find... Also CAN I SAY SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORE!!!
Ouch..Ouch..Ouch.. Couldn't even get out of bed this morning..I decided to take a hot shower to help me feel better but even tho I am sore this morning I like the hurt lol I haven't worked out in a long time.. Makes me think I need to really get started on my marathon!!Hubby also told me that he wanted to exercise with me to get fit! It made me happy I hope he can run the marathon with me.. to be continued...

I saved a picture from yesterday dinner , Yum! Hubby surprised me with the presentation .. Can you say Leftover? lol No one can tell :) Doesn't look like  a lot of food but it was very filling!





A couple months ago hubby and I went to LasikMd to get a quote for my laser eye surgery.. To get the laser eye surgery It would cost me $3600 for both eyes and a life warranty. This is so expensive but its a lifetime change... I was very scared about it and also the price did scare me also! I then decided to lay off the idea for a bit.. Lately I've been thinking about it and I might look into it.. Did anyone go through it? Does it hurt after the surgery? How was your experience? Please share :)
I heared that they have a financial plan which I am going to look into , cross fingers for me! I'll keep you guys in the loop**

Ce soir le dinner is fish with a side of mixed vegetables, it was really good and light! Tonight I was craving something sweet and I had about 1/4 cup of walnut dipped in nutella!

Tonight is pretty little liars and then off to bed early..xoxo

I hope everyone had a good day xo

Snowboarding?

Happy Sunday Everyone!


Before going to bed yesterday I turned on my alarm to wake up early and not miss half of the day!At 8am I was awake, made some nice coffee and had a skype date with my cousin for about an hour or so.. Missed her! Love the smell of coffee!!! :) I'm such a nerd I know*
 Also I Woke up this morning to the beautiful tulips on my kitchen table!I love having flowers in the house, it makes me happy! Love the color too!



Today was the big day.. Hubby and I are going to try snowboarding for the first time! Just the thought of it scares me...We got this really good deal and since I'm trying to be outside as much as possible I gave in! Let me fill you guys in on my past and only skiing experienced... Back a couple years ago hubby and I went on a romantic getaway to Blue Mountain (north of Toronto) ; I am from an island and never thought I would be skiing nor would I be close to a place like that.. I saw children half my age on the mountains rocking it so I told myself that I would give it a try... Hubby was overly excited because it was approximately 6+ years that he didn't ski, we didn't take any classes and only rented the equipment! As the chair lift went up my heartbeat went up! I didn't know that we had to jump at the top of the mountain as silly as it sound so I totally missed that one and ended up flat on my face ouch that one hurt!
Hubby was showing me how to get up and ski but I couldn't ski or try to do what he was demonstrating me.. Oh boy thinking about it now, that must've been so funny for the people around me. Somehow I got myself up and followed him slowly but caught up on speed and........... That's when I totally lost control and panicked!!! Instead of doing what he taught me I stood up like a fork and went so fast ( I totally thought I was going to die lol ) and the only way I could stop was to go straight on the side post! BAD IDEA.
My skies popped out and I ended up going around the post twice and fell in my back. I was so lucky! I wasn't dead...didn't break anything but I was traumatized and crying hysterically lol!
I totally felt bad because I kept stopping and asking question and he couldn't ski normally! lol so I took the easy way out, I went to the spa while he worked it out on the mountains!
I promised myself that I would never try this again and yet I found myself in this snowboarding class!
This time we made sure to get a private instructor for couple hours and try something that we both don't know, so that we would be at the same level.. The sad part is that I would never try skiing again.. I am Traumatized.lol


 I must say that my experience today was totally different from my first time skiing! I am so glad I gave it another chance! I can't lie in the beginning I was afraid and didn't know how I would be able to face this activity but I am glad I swallowed my pride and went for it! We had a lot of fun and at the end I was able to go down the hill by myself, I stayed on the same medium height hill while my brave hubby went and tried other ones.. This was such a great outdoor activity that we are for sure going to continue doing.. I am so sad that winter is over but we will for sure sign up for it next upcoming winter..!!
Mohammed Ali was a good movie! All my life I thought that it was just a regular boxer but he was more than that, I would definitely recommend this movie to everyone!Loved it!

About the blog, I changed it a bit yesterday and added some pictures and somewhere for everyone to subscribed to it too :) Also if you guys want to follow me here is my twitter:Ms_lilie
I hope you guys like the new updated blog :)

Le menu ce soir is the left over from yesterdays night, we did change it a bit by adding some cooked and chopped bacon on our cauliflower purée! Yum delicious!! Loved every bite of it!
I am going to take a very ' HOT  bath so that I don't wake up too sore tomorrow morning ( I hope)!

 Xoxo I hope every one of you had a good Sunday!

Kisses*

Ps: Sorry guys I took pictures of everything else except me.. lol go figure...

Late saturday

I knew I slept past 9am this morning because I could here the neighbors on top of our apartment talking... Mom called at around 10:30am, best alarm clock ever ;) love you mom!

We didn't ended up going out yesterday, we were very tired at around 9pm.. Imaging now if we were out it would've been an early night! Lol
We decided to watch the part 3 of the famous movie Ray ( Ray Charles)! It's an amazing movie I absolutely loved it!!! We also rented Ali but we didn't watch it because it was way to late and we were already half asleep in bed!

Today we are going to enjoy the last days of winter! Snow shoeing is what we're doing today! it's pretty fun an it's an amazing workout especially the cardio!for about 2hours it's more than 1000kcal! oh yeah I can't wait! Knowing that we were going to do that today I had half an oven bread and a spinach omelette with a nice cup of coffee! Got to eat when you work out!!
This morning breakfast was about 350kcal, which is not that bad at all!!

Even though we woke up late we had a really good and constructive day! Dishes are cleaned, self cleaning was turned on and my oven is clean for another 4/5 months :) bed sheets and laundry is for! I love the smell of clean clothes!

Le menu ce soir is scallop, Cauliflower purée and cooked spinach made by my amazing hubby, we also have Ice cream left in the freezer, the really good island breeze :)

I hope you guys had a good Saturday!
Sorry for the late blog :)

We're going to watch 'Ali' :)

Sleepless night

Happy Friday everyone!! It's Friday,so beautiful outside and hubby is home!!
Everything is perfect!

I somehow couldn't sleep at all last night, I kept tossing around and then decided to read my book since I couldn't sleep... Lol didn't help because by 4am I was still wide awake! I forced myself to bed and slept until my alarm rang and boy that wasn't a welcoming ringer! ZzzzzZ

Today I decided to go and get some clothes ( most of my clothes are getting pretty big on me and also it makes me look big ) and hubby needed a haircut too so we all went together! I don't know why but I didn't buy anything.. Once we got to the mall I went to guess and the sales associate was so rude and also kept bringing me the big sizes that we're big on me... I felt bad and back to how I felt when I was heavier.. It was my first time and I didn't want to feel like that so we decided to leave and my mood was ruined.. Funny to say I did loose 25 lbs... I guess shopping with be for next week!

We also went grocery shopping together and we got some scallops, bok choy, spinach and some really good low kcal ice cream that I can't wait to get my hands on! Le menu ce soir is scallops and cooked spinach and a side of tomato salad! Yum! This does sound delicious!

Tonight we are going out... Might go clubbing or bar hopping.. We'll see once we're out!

TGIF I hope everyone had a great week! :) xoxo
