(The new power cord arrived this morning, so I am up and running again with my own computer – happy, happy day!)
Rainy day. Got up and it was cloudy, but not raining and J and I were going to go out running. By the time we got dressed and had a prerun snack – it started raining. So, I popped down to the gym and hit the treadmill with pace music for 45 minutes. Not going to get off schedule! John went for a walk. Then I look out the window of my gym and see him outside! He walked all the way to the gym (1.7 miles) and then hitched a ride home with me. Silly guy.
Came home and made Cream of Wheat with a mashed banana and cocoa powder. Topped with some chocolate sauce and toasted pecans. Tasterrific!
John offered to go to the mall today to shop since it’s rainy – what a great hubby! Returning these to get a bigger size for my niece.
Pink item:
I put on my long rain coat and put my camera into the pocket. As I got in the car and pulled the door shut, I didn’t realize my coat was dangling out the door and I had slammed the door on my camera that was in the pocket. Sad me… the LCD display is cracked and nonfunctional. It takes pictures, but I can’t see what I am taking a picture of. I am so sad! I loved this camera and it was such a bargain when I got it. The same camera now is $40 more. 🙁 What is a food and fitness blogger to do without a good camera? I have a crappy backup one to use until I get this one replaced.
Here are some photos I took not being able to see.
Looky what I saw at Target:
Candy Corn soda! It’s a Jones Soda brand. I would have bought 1 if they sold single cans, but we would have had to get 6. I loves me some candy corn, so I was all over this 😀
Hopefully some successful new slippers bought. We stopped at Starbucks for some coffee:
Almost in camera field 😛 Not doing too bad for not having a viewfinder.
John and I had a long talk about possiblities for the future with a new business. I have to think a little bit about this. Okay, a lot. It’s a food-related business (not coffee). We do so much pondering over coffee. It’s a good medium for that.
My parents went out to see Jeff Dunworthy (???) today – (whom I don’t find funny at all). That meant I had to do a little puppy sitting!
Lizzie says “Hi – aren’t I cute??”
Now it’s an evening in, or maybe some grocery shopping. I have batteries charging for the backup camera, so hopefully I can start taking more pics tomorrow. It’s too hard to guess what is in the viewfinder frame. I can’t imagine it would be very cheap to replace the LCD screen in the camera. I just have a tough time with technology, this week was rough between the computer and the camera.
I did finish up an ornament this morning. I am pleased at how sparkly it is! It’s going to be purty on the tree. (That 42 you see is my duathlon bib!)
Question: Where do you do your best chatting/philosophizing/pondering?
You finally get your power cord then your camera breaks? That’s my luck. I am not one to try too many thing especially if I have to cook it for the first time but that pecan (Whatever you call it) cream of wheat thing looks good.

Sorry to hear about your camera, but the rest of your days sounded like a good time.

Bummer on the camera. I’d be lost w/o mine. You did alright with no viewfinder. 🙂 A possible new business…oh..can’t wait to hear when/if you share. Since we have 2 toddlers running around, hubby and I tend to do our best chatting when we lay down in bed…no kids (hopefully), no tv, no computer…

I’m so sorry about your camera. I recently broke my point and shoot that I keep in my pocketbook. Luckily I have other cameras to use but the rest are bulky SLRs that aren’t so easy to carry around all the time. Yours doesn’t happen to be a Nikon does it? I need the shutter button for mine.
No – it’s an Olympus point and shoot.
That sucks about your camera 🙁 Does it not have a little eye hole? My digital camera has one. It’s still not as good as the digital viewer on the back, but it’s good for when it’s sunny out and I can’t see what’s on it anyways.
I was thisclose to buying cream of wheat yesterday, then decided against it because I already have three kinds of hot cereal in my house! I’ve also never had candy corn before. Actually, I’ve never even SEEN it. I think it’s an American thing…

No candy corn? I may have to send you some. It’s a total sugar rush!
Well I’m happy about you getting your power cord! 😀
What you did to your camera? It’s the kind of thing I would do.
I can’t even imagine being without a camera now that I blog. I feel your pain about breaking your favorite.
The pics were pretty good though, you must admit 😀
Breakfast as usual, ROCKS. You make the best brekkies!

I closed the car door on the camera while it was in my coat pocket.
That stinks about your camera:( You did a great job regardless!
Candy corn soda!!! I’m a candy corn lover, too:)
I do my best pondering when I have a few quiet minutes right before bed.

Sorry to hear about the camera. That just stinks.
My best thinking happens when laying on a couch in a non-tired state of great relaxation.

I love the ornament – it’s beautiful!
