The week I ate dinner by myself.

FRIDAY 08/30/2019

11:00am – dropped off baby L to get groomed and about to do a bunch of damage shopping today for myself. 

11:15am – went to NR to return those Alo yoga pants, proud to say I did not pick up anything else. 

11:45am – first stop Costco to fill up on gas again. $30.18

12:15pm – Bought approximately $54 worth of stuff from Costco. First time using the costco self check out! Worked smoothly for me. $52.61… They accidentally charged me $20.00.. I’ll ask for a refund later this morning when I stop by Costco anyways. 

01:00pm – Spent some time looking for stuff from TJMaxx. Got a coffee container (it was perfect and only $5) and 3 new rugs. I think neutral is the way to go after I got home and placed them. so I think I’ll be returning one of them.  $53.83

02:00pm – Got the call to pick up L, but decided to spend time doing yoga first for myself since he can wait at Wag. 

02:30pm – Yoga. Totally solid as expected. 

03:30pm – Picked up the little guy. His first hair cut was a little bit messy, however we got the targeted areas I discussed with the groomer (belly, excrement areas, and around the eyes). $41.25 (including tip and a 25% discount). 

06:00pm – For dinner we went to Tofu House. I was conservative in what we ordered and it was delicious! I think I got spicy. $25.55

8:00pm – afterwards stopped by Cauldron $5.67

DAY TOTAL: $174.46


SATURDAY 08/31/2019

09:00am – Got to UO and went next door to pick up some pastries for the family dinner tonight. $36.00

4:00pm – last patient didn’t realize there was such a think as a co-pay with her first ever contact lens appointment, therefore she canceled which is fine with me. I ran out of there and was totally on my way home haha. 

4:30pm – my books arrived and I’m a little bit sad I can’t crack into them right away. Anyways, on my way back to CH. Excited to see family. $11.94 and $20.31

DAY TOTAL: $68.25

SUNDAY 09/01/2019

10:00am – worked today in SVY 

12:30pm – remembered to bring food today thanks to E. And so I didn’t spend money on lunch. 

DAY TOTAL: $0.00

MONDAY 09/02/2019

6:300am – took puppy for an outdoor walk and had to give him a bath since he was extra smelly. 

9:00am – got to BB, $21.99 for two coffee drinks and a lox/bagel board. Noms. Reading Food now. We also went to WFM, cost was higher mostly because of all my nuts. $46.83

There was also a fill up for water outside of the WFM, $0.80

11:00am – planning for a hike around Torrey pines for the puppy today. 

This did not work out… But we ended up exploring different parts of the North County area. Including going to El Pescador $40.78

06:00pm – A gave us some tuna that they caught on their boat a week ago. Also, we ate some fresh tuna at his place with very little sushi rice and condiments. FREE. Friends are awesome. 

08:00pm – I was still hungry though and mildly tipsy. Ended up going to TB. $10.54

DAY TOTAL: $119.95

TUESDAY 09/03/2019

7:00am – happy with this morning, last night was also super fun. 

It takes time and work for a relationship to be good. It’s not like there is some magical pill that we can all do to make it good. 

10:00am – Stopped by TJMxxx to return one of the rugs, but ended up purchasing some hooks to put up. The hooks were necessary and successful. $5.37

6:00pm – went to this place called McGregors for HH. $36.80 for 1 drink and 2 entrees. Looking at it now, I think it’s a little bit high in cost. 

DAY TOTAL: $42.17

WEDNESDAY 09/04/2019

Auto Charged for BarkBox: $31.25

8:00am – felt super high energy this morning. And then on the way out for otf I suddenly got hit with a whole lotta nausea. Weird!!! 

9:10am – 5 minutes after getting into my workout I didn’t feel nauseous anymore. I will contribute it to the morning vitamins with coffee. I’ll have to remember to drink more water. 

12:52pm – been trying to get into this food book without being distracted by knowing I have an afternoon appointment and need to check out the good feet store prior to the Subaru appointment. I just want their expert opinion and will go forward from there. I also have ON shoes that I could buy at $150 instead. Decisions! 

Maybe I’ll take L on a walk before he goes into the crate. 

Also, I need to make a point of bringing back food diaries. For lunch I had: organic Ceasar salad with dressing (skipper the cheese, tough decision), frozen/microwaved salmon patty, and chips. And drank some water. 

Also, ran the dish washer. And I think I just heard my dryer stop. I could do laundry now. But I so do not feel up to it. 

2:00pm – went to good feet store finally, it’s $300 per pair of insoles and there are three types: strengtheners, maintainers, and relaxers. I opted for the maintainers only since that’s the one that’s good for hiit. Supposedly! She nearly sold me the second pair, but I was firm on a no for that. FSA $300

3:40pm – got to KM Subaru for my service/oil change and tire rotation. Hopefully everything is good here. They said it would take at least 1.5 hours. The cost was covered under the maintenance plan I purchased. 

6:00pm – There was so much traffic! I blame the drizzle. Therefore, I decided to get dinner by myself at this place called TastyPot. It was good, but a little high in price. $24.54

DAY TOTAL: $55.79

THURSDAY 09/05/2019

Will be getting our imperfect produce order: $20.15

12:00pm – the struggle is so real when it comes to not going next door and eating a whole bunch of carbs right now. But I’m telling myself today is just day 1. And no time to start like the present right? 

12% carb, 24% protein, and 64% fat today. 

3:00pm – Purchased L’s flea medication. I opted just to have one because I’d rather wait for a coupon again. $26.88

DAY TOTAL: $47.03

TOTAL FOR THE WEEK: $507.65
