What's on your Wednesday Menu?
Good morning, everybody:
This put me down for a 2 hour nap:
5 Rounds for time -
12 deadlifts 35 pound dumbells
9 Hang power cleans 35 pound dumbells
6 Shoulder to overhead 35 pound dumbells
12 calories assault bike
I got through it in 11 minutes and 10 seconds. I was able to go through each round without having to put the dumbells down, but the shoulder to overhead got really tough in the end. Went home, ate lunch, did a little work, went to the post office to mail Secret Santa presents. Then went into the TV room and proceeded to sleep from 4 until 6.
I guess that today is the last "normal" work day of the year. I will bring my computer with me next week, so not entirely unplugged. Also, I have to go to lifting this morning and CrossFit this afternoon.
It was supposed to be our Happy Hour holiday party this afternoon, but one of my friends had an unexpected work trip (although retired, he went back to work somewhere else) and another had a family medical issue with her Dad, so it may be just two couples. The original plan was to make some sort of festive champagne ****tail, but I'm not sure now. Does anybody have any good recipes?
We submitted a bid to upgrade our stateroom and I guess we will hear in the next 24 hours whether it was accepted. First I said let's not do that, but I changed my mind when I heard the details. We aren't going to go any higher if we don't get it. Really its about the family time, a break from work and the sun.
I received my Secret Santa present, but will not open it until I return from vacation the evening 22nd.
QOTD: I think that I'm with CH.
Breakfast: Bagel
Lunch: Chicken Schwarma
Dinner: meatballs
Have a great day, all!

Good morning JB and menu friends!
Another busy day, day 2 of our annual ISO audit, first day was uneventful, and that is a good thing.
Chloe is sleeping through the night ( Sleeping with Joddie and I, haha), and doing a good job of going to the bathroom on the pad when we don't get her out in time.
I am 1.2 lbs away from my original goal of 205, I will re-set my new goal once I reach my current goal.
QOTD - Vaguebook - great points. I love FB memories, but got tired of comments, must be nice to travels so much, must be nice to have so much fun....etc....I trimmed my friends list to a little over a hundred and reallly cut back on what I share.

B- 2 good yogurt and raspberries
L- Egg salad
S- cukes
D - chicken and veggies
This evening is Cigar night at a buddies
