The Hubby

Happy Friday Everyone!! First I will tell you about my eats today ... and then I will introduce you to "The Hubby."

Some of you may be wondering just who "hubby" is. Does he have a name? What does he do? Etc. Etc. Hang tight, and we will get there.

Last night I was feeling rather nutty ... so my snack consisted of an apple with peanut butter:

And 1 slice of rye toast with almond butter and honey:

This morning, I was still being nutty ... so I had a bowl of oats with a banana, peanut butter, and chia seeds loaded on top:

I also had some orange juice to nurse my cold:

Lunch was obviously leftover pulled pork (which I dumped on a bun):

I also had some cheese:

And a fruit cup:

After work I went for a drink and ended up staying at the pub until 8:00!
Since it got so late we ordered dinner. This was unplanned and I didn't have a camera with me.
I had 2 Caesars, about 12 pieces of calamari, and 1/2 a veggie quesadilla. I didn't eat much because I was busy chatting away with friends. I might make a green monster tonight for some veggies, as I didn't get anywhere near enough today!

The Hubby

On the blog I usually refer to my husband as "The Hubby." He does in fact have a name, believe it or not!! We like to call him Chris :-)

He is my best friend, my soul mate, and my love. This is a picture of us waiting in the airport together for our flight to Mexico 2 years ago:



This is Chris being goofy in Vegas (I surprised him with a trip for our anniversary this year):



Chris works at a very successful Structural Engineering Firm as a structural technologist. He does a whole bunch of things on the computer that I do not understand. He likes his job, but if I had to do it for even one day, I would cry. I seriously cried in drafting in high school ... a structural engineering firm is not the environment for me!!

Amber had this great quiz on her blog that inspired this post ... so here are my answers to the quiz about "Us" (Chris and Myself).

What are your middle names?
Jolene is actually one of my middle names, but I have gone by it since I was 7. My other middle name is Catherine, and my first name is Marie. Chris's middle name is Leigh.

Yes

Who is smarter?
This is impossible to determine. When it comes to memory, and academic stuff, me ... but when it comes to lots of other things ... him. Like I said, I couldn't do his job. It is too hard for me.

Me I suppose.

How long did it take to get serious?
Not long ... we knew we were meant to be :-)

He does.

He always does. I don't like to drive unless I am in the car alone. I am easily distracted.
