Actually, this week has gone by pretty quickly. Next week should, too, since I am only working Monday and Tuesday (and this weekend).
This afternoon I had a small cookie I’d been hording since last week. I think it had pieces of toffee on top.
I need a manicure.
I also had some Arizona pomegranate-acai tea and a navel orange.
After work I went to the gym and did 15 minutes of cardio before taking a 1 hr. PiYo class and then did another 15 minutes of cardio. I updated the Workouts tab.
When I got home I changed clothes and then Josh and I went out Christmas shopping. We went to Costco, Wal-Mart, Toys R Us, and the mall.
We ended up eating fast food because I failed to plan (and therefore planned to fail). We went to Arbys and I got the “small” beef & cheddar combo with curly fries.
After Arby’s is when we went to the mall. We looked for a while at Japanese Chin-Poos (too small!!) and a Pomeranian. I would really like to get a small dog that I can cuddle with but that can also hold its own with our Rottweiler Lab mix. My mom and my brother both have Pomeranians and I know they are good dogs. But…my heart is still broken over the loss of my baby cat, Monster, and I feel like if we get another animal we’ll be admitting she’s really not coming home.
From my experience over the last 6 months or so, having a pet go missing is worse than having one pass away. It hurts just to think about her and I miss her so much. We had her since she was a kitten and she was 6 years old when she disappeared. I keep expecting her to just show up, but it hasn’t happened. Flyers, ads, Craigslist, AmberPetAlert.com…nothing.
Sorry to be a downer, I guess I just needed to vent.
Well, this isn’t helping anything. Now I’m crying. PMS anyone?
Back on topic…We’re having a holiday breakfast at work on Tuesday. I think I’m going to bring some quiches. Anyone got a good quiche recipe they’d like to share?
BTW…I’m on Twitter now so follow me @lovinlosing.

*hugs* I can’t imagine having a pet go missing. Having one pass away is hard enough but not knowing about the missing one… gah, I wanna cry just thinking about it. Hopefully Monster stumbled upon an awesome family who is taking great care of her.
Thanks for the hugs!!
I am with you on the missing pet thing. My cat went missing September 11 2008 and I am still looking for her…
As for the Japanese Chin Poo, I have a Chin (and ironically a standard poodle) and she stands up to the big guys just great – she is the biggest little dog I have ever met
P.S. her name is Chin-E, clearly I need a clue!
I’m SO sorry about your cat. Good luck! Thanks for the kind words.
I’m also a cat person. I’m sorry that you lost your cat. =c
