What My Day Off Looked Like

I'm one of the lucky ones who works a 9/80 schedule allowing me every other Friday off! It's definitely worth getting up before the crack of dawn for that Friday. This past Friday I had a busy day getting ready for a baby shower I was hosting Saturday so I thought this would be the perfect time to document. Now if only I had remembered to take more pictures...

Here we go...

Woke up for the first time at 6 am because I forgot to turn off my alarm :(
 
 
Finally got out of bed
 
 
A little vanilla greek yogurt with chocolate chips and a hot cup of tea for breakfast while catching up on Glee
 
 
Let the baking begin! By this time my brownies were in the oven and while I waited on those I whipped up the Baked Potato Ranch Dip
 


While still waiting for the brownies to finish, I strung together the banner I made for the shower
 


Once the brownies came out of the oven, I walked over to the gym to get my sweat on. I didn't make it very far on the treadmill, but some is better than none. And yes I was watching Full House ha ha.
 
 
 
After checking the mail and walking back to my apartment, I ended my HRM's workout. I always let it run until I get back to my apartment so that I'm not stopping it while my heart rate is still elevated.
 

Leftover spinach ravioli for lunch
 
Next up was a quick shower (didn't think that needed a pic ha ha)
 


 
After my shower, I was off to my massage appointment. It feels so good to have someone get all my knots out.
 
After my massage I completely forgot to take pics again until dinner. My bad. But I started on the cupcakes.
 
While the first batch were baking, I whipped up the fruit dip.
 
Put in the second batch of cupcakes (I only have one muffin tray so I can only do 12 at a time)
 

7 pm dinner with my guy at BWW...surprisingly we only waited 5 mins!
 

 
After dinner it was time to roll and dip my brownie pops (don't mind my gigantic hand I was having difficulties)
 

While the pops were drying I vacuumed and started making the orange candy coating to go on top of the green
 
Put the orange over the green and stuck them in the fridge
 
Put up the cupcakes
 
Wiped down the counters
 
Took another shower
 
Crawled into bed at 12:15 am

 

 
 
There you have it...a day in the life of me! Granted I'm not usually this busy on my days off. Most of my fridays off  I wake up, eat, go to the gym or run outside, eat/watch tv, get my massage if I have a credit, watch tv/clean/do laundry, eat, tv, bed...ha ha
 
 
What does your day look like??
