Last night I lost my mind. I left work around 5:15 to head to the gym. As I was turning out of my office, I literally ran into the car in front of me. I thought he had pulled out. I was turning right and looking left to see if any cars were coming. The coast was clear so I accelerated… right into the car in front of me. WTF. Who does that? At first, I didn’t even realize I ran into a car, I heard a loud bang and was like, “what was that?” That’s when I realized I hit a car. Thankfully, there was no real damage (besides my ego) and the guy was super nice. I scuffed up his bumper but he said not to worry about it. Phew.
I continued on to the gym trying to figure out where my brain disappeared to, only to find out it would take longer than I hoped for it to return. When I got to the gym, I changed into my workout clothes and realized I left my fitbook in the car. I put my jacket back on and reached for my keys, but they were no where to be found.
I retraced my steps, 3 times, trying to figure out where I could of lost them. I dug threw my bag, took everything out, unfoled and then re-folded my clothes, searched the pockets, and found nothing. So now, I was locked out of my car, fitbook-less which meant I didn’t know what Live Fit workout I was supposed to do, and totally overwhelmed by my mindlessness.
However, I did not give up. I called Vinnie to bring me my spare keys from home, and found the scheduled workout on my iPhone. I hustled through my workout so I would be done by the time Vinnie got there. Before I went out to the lobby to meet Vinnie, I did one last sweep of the gym, and FOUND my keys! no joke. They were hanging on a hook, I have no idea how they got there, because I swear I looked. I quickly called Vinnie to tell him he didn’t need to come anymore, but he was already on his way. He patiently said “ok good, I am glad you found them, see you at home.” If it was me, I would of been so annoyed that I had to go through the whole process for nothing.
On my drive home, I wanted to get Vinnie something to say thank you for putting up with me! I got him his favorite Ben & Jerry’s ice cream! But as the day would have it. I had to go to two different stores in order to find the right flavor. Ugh
After a crazy evening, at least I get to celebrate Wednesday with WIAW! Thanks Jenn for organizing the party.
I ate a banana immediately upon waking with some Pukka tea.
I ate an apple on the way to a morning meeting
After the meeting, I did some work at a local cafe, Me and Ollie’s, and enjoyed a cup of coffee
For lunch, I had sautéed kale, broccoli and some homemade tomato sauce. Vinnie’s Italian roots make for a delicious pasta sauce!
I snacked on some trail-mix which I absolutely adore! I could eat it forever and ever. I have to make myself stop. It is so good.
Dinner was grilled chicken, quinoa and salad with homemade maple mustard balsamic dressing.

Tuesday was a long tiring day.
Today will be better! 
Question: Have you ever had a day where nothing seems to go right? What happened?
