5:45am Wake Up Call!

Today was a slap in the face.  After several days off and getting 9+ hours of sleep every night, it was hard getting out of bed at 5:45 this morning.  By about 8am I was feeling more awake and ready to work.  After work I went to the gym since it was FREEZING out today.  I did 20 minutes of weights and then I did a 35 minute treadmill interval workout that I got from Carrots 'N' Cake.

I got home and I was starving.  Good thing I had already made dinner for tonight last night.  All I had to do was pop it in the microwave and eat.

I made Crispy Almond Crusted Chicken Fingers and popped a sweet potato in the microwave for 8 minutes (4 minutes per side) and added some veggies on the side. 

Other accomplishments today: I finally figured out how to add the daily mile widget to my blog so I'll get ot see how many miles I run this year!! I also contanacted an officiant for our wedding and we are meeting with him next Monday night to go over some details for our ceremony.  Matt and I are still out on the write our own vows or do traditional vows question.  I think I might actually have a nervous breakdown if I have to read my own vows because I hate public speaking, but I do like the idea of writing something original that comes from the heart...we'll see.
