SunnyDee's Diary

Ugh... it's been so damn hot these past few days, so I feel like I've accomplished nothing I needed to do on my days off. Today the temperature is nice and cool so I might actually get something done. I have to clean, go to the gym, pick up groceries and also cook a nice supper for Matt and I. I don't get many evenings to cook, so he often does the cooking. When I get an evening off I usually try to make something fairly special. Tonight's selection probably has a million calories... Beef parmesan with garlic mashed potatoes and glazed carrots. I considered making a strawberry torte as well, but figured that was pushing it. So I'll just arrange some fruit for a sweet finish.
I realized I have NO recent pics of Matt or me. What's up with that? We'll have to take some soon. For now, you'll have to settle for just Lucy. But she's the best looking one anyway. :D

I use sirloin steaks. And I use parm and mozza 'cause I like it better that way. I rather like your dessert suggestion. I will do that. ;)

Lucy is ADORABLE and she also looks like trouble :reddevil: Spunky little thing or what? :D

She is trouble. She's INCREDIBLY active and wants attention all the time. It seems everyone can tell that she's bad just by looking at her. She's got that fuzzy-haired, big-eyed, I'm-a-little-devil look.
 
Supper last night worked out rather nicely! But I ate a steak that was much too big for me. I can't even imagine how many cals were in that. Yikes. The chocolate and strawberries worked out nicely as well. I haven't done chocolate-dipped strawberries in way too long. Thanks Mal!
I didn't go to the gym last night - I went swimming instead. My apt building has a pool! I think I might swim today as well. We'll see. I'm working nights tonight and tomorrow, which kinda screws up my body clock and makes it hard to work out. But I'm off for 4 days after that. SWEEEEET.
Matt and I have decided that, starting Monday, we're going to get much more serious about eating well and exercising. We do well as it is, but we really want to get back to that real zealous attitude we had about a year and a half ago. I find it so much more motivating when he's involved in his health as much as I am. So, since we're both off on the weekend, we're going to look up some new healthy recipes and go out and buy groceries for delicious healthy meals.
I'm not sure if I mentioned that we still don't live together... But no, we don't. I stuck to my decision about wanting to live alone for a while. We still spend a LOT of time together, sleep together most nights and cook supper together whenever we're both off. But we've still got out own Matt and Dee spaces. It's perfect for now.
 
Perfect for now, perfect for ever maybe, maybe that's the key to a good relationship--separate houses!

Last night I had dreams about the ex and woke up lonely for the first time in a while! Probably because I lost all my hos :( Oh well, time to get new ones!
 
Hey girl! Thanks for visiting my diary. I'm glad you are enjoying having your separate space. I moved in with my boyfriend a few months ago, and I love it, but I lived on my own for three years beforehand. I am really glad I did that. Good luck with the yummy recipes!
 
The separate space is great. I don't think we'll do it too much longer though. We'll have been together for 5 years next month, so it certainly wouldn't be like rushing into anything. We'll probably move in together next year some time. Actually, I kinda get the feeling a proposal is not far off... :blush5: That's a little scary. But exciting too. His sister is getting married in October and I think all the wedding involvement is giving him the fever.
 
I think so! We've talked about it and would both like to get married within the next two years. He's really careful with his money and has very predictable spending habits, but lately I've noticed his spending habits have changed a bit and he's paying VERY close attention to his investments, so I wonder if he's saving for a big purchase. lol I don't expect it to happen right away, I do have a feeling he might propose in early 2009.
 
Hey there Sunnydee!

I'm so glad you've found your way back to the boards :) and have been visiting my diary. I have missed ya. Not to toot my own horn or anything but I do have some pretty good before and afters in that section (the thread is a little buried).

Congrats on becoming a "real nurse"!!! I start my program for Nursing in January, then it is two years of hell, lol....

I shall look for that thread.

My story included a gay nurse who was very very funny :)
 
I will also need to see this thread. I'm at work right now so I'm not supposed to be foruming. :blush5: I'll hunt for the Sam pics when I get home tomorrow.
 
I still didn't find your pics, Sam! You'll have to link me to them.
I'm very much enjoying my day off. I'm off until Tuesday. I'm supposed to do nights again on Tues and Weds, but I'm gonna take one of those days off because my best friend called yesterday to tell me she's coming to visit on Sunday!! She'll be here until Friday. :D This is the same best friend I lived with while I was in university. We've been trying to plan a visit for sometime this month, but it looked like it wasn't going to happen. So I was pretty FREAKIN excited when she called to say she'd be coming. FUCK YEAH!!!

There's a weird contrast occurring in my surroundings right now... My kitty is behind my head, sleeping on the back of the couch and snoring lightly - a very peaceful image. Meanwhile, there's a Free Tibet march happening on the street outside - an image of struggle. It's a little disorienting, but beautiful. I'll go wave my support to the marchers from the balcony.
 
I KNOW! I'm a very proud mom. Heehee

I feel like such a wimp today. My lower body is sore. Matt and I decided to take a walk last night on one of the trails nearby. We intended to go for one hour, but ended up walking for HOURS! We just kept getting to forks in the trail and deciding to explore paths we weren't familiar with. It turned into an adventure. Anyway, we had fun, that's for sure. I just didn't realize walking still had the potential to make me stiff and sore. Maybe it's actually from the ridiculous amount of luuuv-makin I've been doing lately. :p

I really want to buy a bike soon because that trail would be awesome to bike on. I have to start paying back my student loan in November, so I'll have to do some financial assessment and decide if I can afford a decent bike...

Well, off to Wal-Mart and the grocery store! Got some shit to pick up before Laura gets here. I'll hit some diaries a little later.
