355/365 - Blockbuster Rentals

I subscribed to Blockbuster Rentals. We have Netflix at home, but since I can't watch a lot of movies right when I get them, I decided to venture out on my own and get Blockbuster. The cool thing about Blockbuster is that you can return movies in store and even rent some in store as well so you can get movies when you want them. We'll see how it goes and if it's worth the money spent.

354/365 - Battling the Cold

I've been fighting off a cold that started it's attack on me last Friday. It's an up and down battle, with the cold winning more rounds then I am. But I'm not giving up! My strategy has been involving lots and lots of orange juice. I've been craving orange juice so it's not so much of a sacrifice.
The weird thing about this cold is that I'm hungry. Usually I lose my appetite when I get sick, but not this time. I think along with making me cough up globs of phlegm, it's also trying to make me fat. Stupid Cold!

353/365 - PB&J

I had the day off today. So I made myself a delicious peanut butter and guava jelly sandwich for breakfast. For some strange reason, I've been on a pb&j kick recently. It's just so simple and fun to eat. At least I'm off of my lau lau cravings and now on to something cheaper and easier.

354/365 - Desk

My wonderful fiance cleaned up the other day and made a work area just for me. :) Now I have actual desk space to go on the computer and keep all my books. The only thing I have to do now is keep it clean.

351/365 - Two Great Movies

These are two of the greatest animated movies ever. Ratatouille and Kung Fu Panda. They are both kids movies so they are really feel good and have a good message to them.
On our trip to Las Vegas, I actually got to try Ratatouille for the first time at a buffet and I really like it! If it wasn't for the movie, I don't think I ever would have tried it. So not only are they good movies, they are expanding my palate as well. :)

350/365 - Busted Foot

On Wednesday, I was making my sandwich for lunch and when I went to get the mayonnaise out, the huge and heavy mustard bottle fell top first on to my foot. It was the twist top mustard so that slammed right into my foot. So now, I have a circular cut on my foot and my ankle is sore. It doesn't sound like it would hurt, but the mustard was the bigger size bottle and it was new. I hope this doesn't cause permanent damage to my ankle.

349/365 - Sunset

There was a beautiful sunset tonight. As soon as I stepped out of the garage door everything was a nice shade of pink. For some reason though, my camera didn't pick up all of the colors in the sky.
My foot is feeling a little better then yesterday. Maybe tomorrow I will post a picture and tell the story of what happened.

348/365 - Hope Mayo

We just got a copy of Hope Mayo's debut album, End of the Day. I've been waiting for this to come out for a while now and I'm so excited to finally have a copy in hand! My fiance and I have been Hope fans for a while now and she will be playing the song My One and Only for our first dance at our wedding.

347/365 - Cute Dog

Stitch just looked so cute tonight that I had to take his picture. Or course, this is when he was trying to get food off my plate, so he was probably making cute faces purpose.
I tried Turbo Jam for the first time today and I thought it was pretty good. A little different from the intensity I'm used to doing Insanity, but still a great workout. I'm very excited to try all of the other workouts that I got.

346/365 - Manila Folder Cut

I dread filing things. Only because, every time I do, I end up with at least one paper cut or smashed finger. This time though, it was a manila folder cut. Yikes! As you know, manila folders are really thick and heavy duty so it hurt pretty bad. Didn't really bleed much, but I still scrubbed it with alcohol like crazy. You just never know what kind of germs are lurking around on old files.
*Note: The cut is on my thumb, right near my knuckle. You can barely see it in the picture, but trust me, it stings.

345/365 - Maui Tacos on Maui

For lunch today, we had Maui Tacos on Maui! Cool! I actually think that it was better on Maui then it is here. But I really haven't eaten it in a while so I guess that could be it too. It was really fun though to eat at Maui Tacos on Maui.
I also got a really cool backpack that my fiance bought me. Maybe I'll post a picture of that some other day.

344/365 - Krispy Kreme and Cousin's Wedding

I love Krispy Kreme! There is nothing like a hot Krispy Kreme doughnut. This was the first time I've been to Maui since Krispy Kreme came to Hawaii so it was neat to see the store and to watch the doughnuts being made.
We had my cousin's wedding tonight. It was right near the beach and very nice. I guess I'm the next one in the family to get married...

343/365 - Packing for Maui

We are heading out early tomorrow morning to the beautiful Island of Maui. My cousin is getting married tomorrow so we are going for that and a little mini vacation. I'm very excited because I haven't been to Maui in like 10 years.
The thing I dislike about taking trips is packing. I always feel like I'm forgetting something and at the same time I feel like I'm packing too much.

342/365 - Close up

Yet another picture of my dog Poki. He's just so cute I couldn't resist. When he is calm like this I love him, but at times he can be a pain. I think he has anxiety so he's always pacing around crying and whining and always wanting to go in the room, then go out of the room. It gets tiring having to get up to let him in and out. But I love him and the one thing good about him, is that he always comes when you call him.
