Today was such a great day!!! I got off work & went to the mall to return a sweater that I had bought at the Limited and of course, I had to go to JCPenney & check out their workout gear!! UGH...I never should have done that. I always find something I like!! and want... haha I found this super cute running jacket that i LOVED! and of course a couple of long sleeved tops and another jacket. haha Go figure! Isn't it cute!? And its warm! I'd use it to run the in the winter with a nice long sleeve under it. --like the one that I'm trying on under it lol




Anyhow... I was a good girl and didn't buy anything...today. ;) --maybe tomorrow. lol jk. It was only $35!!! I can't believe I passed it up. I should go back now! Ok... I wont.

Once I got home after passing up some amazing finds at JCPenney...I made sure to do my Insanity workout right away! Which is so unlike me...I usually tend to procrastinate til later in evening. But I did it! and then I made my tomatoes & leftover soup. YUM YUM!! and watched my favorite show (at the moment) ever!! --Dancing with the Stars! I'm not gonna lie, I was upset when Sabrina went home. I think Kirstie NEEDS to go home...she's not even that good! Oh well.. I'm not going to get all worked up (breathe Tiffany...breathe)

After the show was over I had all intentions of taking a shower and getting to bed early since I'm going to have to get up a little earlier to wear my lovely costume to work tomorrow!! FAIL!!! --I got out of the shower and had this grand old craving to go for a run. So what did I do??? I WENT FOR A RUN!! At 9 o' clock!! I'm not sure what I was thinking. But I did it...it was a nice quick 1 mile sprint and it felt great!! OODFA... but now I have a second wind...CRAP!! Hope it fades...FAST! I need to get my sleep. So... now that I've blogged my day to you...I'm going to get my lunch all packed for tomorrow so I can get some beauty sleep...much needed beauty sleep. HAHA 

Make sure to check out my recipe!! Let me just say... I've never really liked tomatoes! But this recipe tastes like pizza without the crust to me!! I LOVED it!! Pure yumminess right there...

Later Gaters!
