I just wolfed down the biggest salad ever. You should have seen this thing: spinach, tomatoes, shredded carrots, cauliflower, broccoli, chicken, and Caesar dressing. It barely fit on my plate. Are you jealous yet?

See, I've been craving chips and candy for the past few days, but somehow, I've managed not to give in. Though I came really close today. I decided that I should put something together that was also crunchy and flavorful, but a lot more healthy. Also, I hadn't eaten much today. So I really needed to catch up on my nutrients. And, I figured that if I was full, I wouldn't be craving anything!

So I win!

Except if there was a bowl of candy in front of me, I would totally be shoveling it in by the fistful. Anyone want to send me Canadian gummi worms for Valentine's Day?

Sozan and Mari and I went out in search of cheaper yarn today. I think I was the only one who actually bought something. I'm so mad that the other stores had barely any selection of the yarn that I needed. The colors they offered were so dull! But Michael's had alpaca yarn on sale for $2.99/bundle, so I bought one. In light pink.

I managed to stitch it into my already existing project (it was really easy to do), but because of the color I bought, my scarf is starting to look more like a baby blanket. Not exactly the direction I wanted to go. Oh well. It's my first one. There are lots of other yarns out there for other things in the future. But I'm still dreaming of that beautiful alpaca yarn here in Birch Bay that is $8.25/roll. I might have to give in.

Guess who is working out with Art tomorrow!! Yup. That would be me. It's Jogo Gym's version of a Valentine's Day celebration. They planned a partner workout, and asked every gym member to bring someone as their partner. So Art's bringing his wife. How romantic.

Not exactly how I was planning on spending my first Valentine's with Art (EVER), but apparently it's going to be fun. Art says it's fairly easy. I looked at the planned routine, and I'm pretty sure it's something I can do. But I'm nervous. Some of the people who work out there intimidate me. I mean, they are wonderful nice people (I've met a lot of them). But I just don't want them to know how much I suck!

I think Art's ultimate fantasy is us being the fastest, strongest, buffest, most good-looking couple in the gym. An unstoppable duo. At this point, he is definitely the better half. In fact, he's so good, he's like.....MORE than half. We're like 75/15 at this point! (College joke. Do the math).

We'll, in any case, we'll get our reward. Because I bought Oreo ice cream today. Saturday is going to be a good day.
