Okay I'm back. Hard to find the time to write. I need to carry a tape recorder around with me to capture all the talk in my mind. Actually I need to sleep with one by my bed because if I wake up during the night my brain starts going!!!

Its been a stressful week. Staff and members are a challenge as always! It's hard when people don't live up to your expectations. If you've never owned a business you just don't understand how it works....and you definitely don't treat it the same as you would if you owned it!
Members can be sooooo...human at times!!!! Who spits gum in the urinal??? Sum body has to fish that out....who pees in the garbage can in the tanning room??? Holy crap is it that far to walk to the bathroom????

Training can be difficult for me at times....Dean gave me grief this week about focusing.....Whacked myself in the face with the medicine ball....looking around the gym seeing what needed to be cleaned, why wasn't this done, glass is looking pretty smudged...why wasn't it clean etc etc.... Members want deals for this and that??? Hello...we have to pay hydro..phone...rent....cable....paychecks....etc etc!!!
Oh well that's my ranting for today...lol!!!
And then on the flip side I am blessed to have my own business and the perks that do come with that!! All good!!!
Dieting is going well.....I've had a couple of cheats though. I got these really great protein crunch pumpkin seed thingy's.....ummmm thanks Judy for turnin me on to them.
Funny how you can justify a cheat to yourself?? Their high protein almost no carbs...etc etc!! Its still a cheat...........I feel like someone takes over my hand and just keeps putting it into the bag and shoving them into my mouth......and then I count out the amount I've justified.....after I've already shoved one in there......What the hell???? deprivation is a great teacher ......
I think about the things people do in their lives...what are they being deprived of??? I could go off on a big tangent here...being a high risk youth counsellor for ten years.....what happens to people when they are deprived of human touch.....love......okay you get my drift.

Okay I will write more later.....Off to put up fences today.....seriously that's not a metaphor....our dogs keep getting out! Big dorks...they go next door and bug the lamas....Two rotties and an amstaff gallivanting all over the country is not a good thing. Brats!!!!

I'm hungry this morning...that's a good thing. Metabolism is running high!! My pancake went down way to easy....I didn't even wait for it to be fully cooked..was still a lil soft in the middle.
Here is the recipe for anyone interested:
1/2 c organic whole oats
1/3 c nutra cleanse
1 cup of whites
put into magic bullet....whip, if you leave this for any reason after you whip it up and don't put it in the pan right away it turns into a serious blob. The nutra cleanse expands!!!!!!
ok...assuming you having made it into a blob.....put into a hot pre heated pan. The trick to a great pancake is in the pan!! A small pan makes the best big pancake. As soon as you put the mixture in the pan turn down the heat and put a lid on it...about 10 minutes or so....
It will rise up and pop the lid off....when that happens flip over and cook another 10 minutes.
Depending on where I am in my diet I top with 1 tsp of Coconut oil.....stevia....and 1/3 cup of heated blueberries..........and cinnamon!! This is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good.
Or i will make it in the waffle iron...its makes alot of lil waffles and it feels like your eating alot!!!!!

Ahhh tasty lil treats!!!!!!

Okay off to the rain I go.............
