hi sunshines!
phew. you ever have those times in your life when like a bagillion different things just hit you all at once with a little mix of good and bad. well of course you do, you’re human. well i was feeling the wrath of that yesterday in a major way.
in a nut shell my doggie has epilepsy and over the past 48 hours he’s had a really bad spell. basically seized for 24 hours straight, in and out of the doctor & what not. we weren’t sure whether or not we were gonna lose him and to be honest we’re still not sure. he’s much better now but he’s been pretty much blind for 48 hours and we’re not sure if the constant seizing caused any major brain damage.
the good news? well right this minute he’s actually eating bananas and chicken. woop woop :) so we’re hoping he’ll be back in his lunatic ways soon enough :) prayers for jj please!
okay julie, debbie downer called and wants her attitude back right!
so on top of that my professors have felt the need to load on the work and classes have just barely started! what’s with that teach?
it’s a good thing i’m the obnoxious kid in the back of the classroom eating her snackies.
by the way, how mad are you that starbucks stopped making green ginger tea. yeah. the looseleaf tea bags are nice but can’t you make my green ginger in loose leaf too!?
it’s crap i tell ya.
could someone please tell me why on earth i’m the only student eating. it’s 6:30pm prime dinner time and i’ve got to feed the beast. does no one else?
creepy food picture taken via blackberry in class. when the professor asked us to tell him something random about ourselves i should have said: “i take pictures of my food.”
whatevs i have no shame munchin down on my wrap filled with love. also known as cottage cheese, hidden valley ranch seasoning, turkey, broccoli slaw, laughing cow & moostard.
on the other hand yesterday was my first official day of my internship. i had a meeting with human resources at 1pm so my boss just asked me to start after.
lunch on the go. literally.
because it’s always normal to bring a tupperware container of veggies in the car and take pictures of yourself eating them while driving on the belt parkway.
and then creepily eat your wrap in your car in the parking lot before going into your meeting.
it’s the italian flag! also known as tomato, cottage cheese & spinach.
work went great! i found out that the entire campus is connected indoors and it has a gorgeous view of the sheepshead bay with huge windows which are glorious to look out. after lapping the entire indoor campus about 10 times & doing all my new employee thang in new heels i was happy to get home at the end of the night rest my feet and enjoy a good hearty meal.
happy to see that deej read my tilapia mind,
and i did the usual thang and threw it in a bowl with the works. because hey it’s how i do.
& don’t worry i didn’t forget about working out with all that’s been going on.
20 minutes stairmill sesh similar to this workout + shoulders
- assisted chin ups 3 sets 10 (85lbs)
- incline front raises (palms facing in) 4 sets 15 (5lb free weights) superseded with upward rows 4 sets 10 (30lb barbell)
- side lateral raises 4 sets 15 (5lb free weights)
20 lazy minutes on the elliptical. supposedly brad & jen are back together…
of course i didn’t forget about smoothie staches either. or breakfast for that matter.
directions on how to be a sloppy mess.
make smoothie, take picture, wipe stache on clean sleeve.
awesome.
okay now that i’ve officially bored you to death. you win $1.5 million dollars for making it to the end of this post. too long. anyways.
love you all.
it’s going to be a little hard for me at first to keep up with my google reader especially with the new job, all my school work & everything else in between but i’m getting there! so i didn’t forget about you lovelies and i wanted to give a woop woop to all the new readers! i’m comin to creep on you soon ;)
stay tuned for friday conclusions ;) might be a little late because i have work tomorrow but hey better late then never right!
peace, love & chicken grease ;)
how do you find time to do everything you have to & a little bit of what you want to? aka work, school, gym & blog.

Sorry to hear about your dog! Hope he's ok :-)
I hope jj is ok! I love your 'stache. great minds think alike, cause i had one this morning. didn't use my sleeve though...that's for next time!
and I don't have time to do everything i have to, much less what i want to. gah. life.
LOVERRR whats going on, first love your scarf, I have the same one :) second, I totally hear you on the eating and no one else is! i saw you tweeted about it, seriously I am sure everyone else was just as hungry but just didnt eat...I would say F off, im eating my food and thats that.
ahhh I hope your doggy is ok!! we had to put my dog to sleep last year it was the saddest thing ever, and my mom still cries about it if someone brings it up, I hope your doggy is healthy and happy like YOU!
kays cinnamon pretzels SWOON, love them oh so much! you must try the kays protein bites if you havent already those are the shizz.
I never have enough time to do everything, but I prioritize. Find out what I want to do/need to do the most and do that! just take a deep breathe and make a list of the items you must do in importance
LOVE YOU!
Girl! You know my <3 is so with you. I will be thinking of you and your puppy day all day long. Frank, of course, sends his best for your baby too.
What a freaking busy day!Glad to hear your first day at the internship was a success. I love the pictures of you eating in the car- cracked me up.
Fitting everything in is ALWAYS a struggle. I sort of have to live through my to do lists and plan plan plan. I also (obviously) pulled back on blogging
I'm so sorry about your pup! I'll keep you and him in my thoughts today.
Woo, you have been like an energizer bunny! I'm glad you're enjoying your internship though, and keeping delicious eats a priority. Soo necessary for sanity.
To be honest, Google Calendar has saved my life when it comes to staying on top of things. I'm a mega planner anyway, and have probably 2-3 places where I keep to-do lists.
Oh no hope the doggy is okay! I always remember eating in class too. I don't understand what "the others" do! How do I do everything I want..well luckily I can blog at my boring job so that kills some time!
I'll take my $1.5 mil now....really I'm waiting...
I hope puppers feels better! That is such a scary situation!
Sorry to hear about the pup, that's scary! I hope he gets better! I don't know how I have time to do everything. That's probably why my job applications are lagging and I'm going to skip the gym tonight!
As a dog mama I feel your pain. Get well wishes!!
Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry about your dog :( I'm sending jj prayers and good vibes.
Your question is my new years plan. I am a very busy person. I work at the middle/high school, I am in grad school, blog, and I teach 3 undergrad courses which includes teaching at 12am and 2 am on some nights, so I am also very organized and I keep checklists of what I want to do when and set small goals, like work on a paper and do 3 pages and then move to the next task. Then I will also set time limits and if it is not all done, I rework my schedule and see if something can actually be left for the next day. Organization is key in my life. Good luck with it all. It takes some practice.
I am so sorry to hear about your dog. I hope he gets better soon and regains his sight.
Sorry about your pup! Hope he'll be ok...
I think that working with my busyness instead of trying to "tame" in helps me out. Orangization is also key. I usually get about an hour to myself after the kids go to bed...
I hope the puppy gets better!
I can't even find time for work, workin on my fitness, and blogging. I don't know how some of you ladies put school and another job on top of that. Gawd.
I guess if you want something bad enough, you make time...
Poor JJ... hope the lil dude is okay.
lol at the fork in your mouth!
seems like work is going well! good luck!
GIRL so sorry about your doggieee! aww
im the SAME way in class.. im like..do yall not get hungry? oh well!!
im eating kays naturals cinna pretzels in class RIGHT now as i type! muahah
omg, brad and jen are back together? hahah. I love catching up on celeb gossip at the gym..
Poor doggie!!! I hope he feels better. Poor little guy.
I hear ya about so much to do! Sheesh! Sounds like you are having an awesome time. I'll tell ya its so hard to find a healthy balance. But it can be done! Good luck with everything!! Have an awesome day hon!
So sorry bout your doggie, hon!
And this:
how do you find time to do everything you have to & a little bit of what you want to?
Girl it's soooo hard. I want to be a good blogging friend to everyone and comment on all my friends' posts, but it's getting harder and harder b/c I have no Me Time left anymore. I feel torn b/c I love everyone but I also love myself and unstructured time. Not to mention my husband, child, jobs, etc and real life.
Anyway girl. I totally hear ya on this. There's life, then there' blogging. Life has to come first. Easier said than done though for me :)
aww i really am thinking of your dog <3 i love dogs so much!
it is so hard to find time for everything!! i almost always end up neglecting once aspect of my life *oops*

I'm so sorry about your puppy! My first dog had epilepsy too, so I totally know what you are going through.
Love the pics of you and the green smoothie!
<3 jess
xoxo
your freakin stache is epic dude. i love you.
love your blog, your 'stache and you.
just wondering if you could give me some workouts that seem to work for you?? i'm a little new at the whole gym thang.
love
amyxx
I'm so sorry to hear about your dog! I will keep my fingers crossed for him for sure. I had a fit when our dog ate chocolate once so I can only imagine how you feel...
yay for new work heels! Although doing ten laps in them does NOT sound fun. Even sneakers start to hurt after wearing them for that long.
I would be that crazy girl taking pictures of my food in the car as well. I feel like they could definitely lock you(us) up for that.
LISTS!! I'm all about lists. I make my "week to do list" and put the things that are most important at the top, then go down from there. That way I don't feel rushed to get EVERYTHING done in one day, unless it NEEDS to be done. I carry my lists with me wherever I go because I'm weird like that.
I love how you see different country's flags in all your food, you're so funny.
I'm sorry about your dog. I didn't even know dogs could get epilepsy. I thought the strangest thing I heard was a lady who gave her dog insulin shots for her diabetes. Very odd, but I guess dogs are similar to us in more ways than we think! I hope your dog is still doing well, and eating his nanners.
Have a great weekend Julie. I hope you find some time to relax and enjoy yourself.
I love your self portraits, so funny!
I am so sorry about your doggy, hope he gets well fast!
I would really love to know how people juggle school, job and blogging too!!
Pumpkin, I'm so sorry about your dog - my pupperonis and I are sending positive thoughts to you guys :)
YAY NEW HEELS!!! I LOVE IT! Glad your first day went well, I'm so happy for you! When you find the answer to your question, lemme know! HAPPY FRIDAY!
Sorry about your dog! Hope all goes well and hang in there!
my bloggie has been on the backburner for me...not going to lie but it has to happen every once and again :) So sorry to hear about your doggie :( Hope he pulls through!!!!
Woah my post was about being stressed too!
