A Day in the Life...

Morning water with some lime juice

Morning constitutional. Vomit pink hallway bathroom. Master bath is more of a pep-to pink. Gotta love the ‘60s

Crackdog wants to go back outside!

Two scrambled eggs with some salt and Adobo seasoning. I like making patterns with the empty spots in the egg carton.

Lady grey tea is my favorite way to caffeinate. Remainder of my breakfast is gouda cheese with 2 slices of bacon.

Packing food for the day: Snack #1 is brie and pecans. Lunch is a grilled chicken thigh with green beans and broccoli. Snack #2 is baby carrots, cucumbers and kalamata olives.

Planning my work day. I’m an inspector. These are the locations I haven’t inspected in my area. Bottom left is where I’m headed today. Small town called Monticello.

Welcome to my office. My days starts whenever I get working in the morning, but between 7 and 9. Today, I was a behind (I blame taking pictures) and started at 8:30.

My kitchen.

My microwave. This thing is a life saver! I can’t stand eating a cold lunch everyday. It takes a little over an hour to heat up a meal from refrigerated. Not sure about how long from frozen.

Getting my audio book going. Lots of driving = I need something for my brain. I switch between audiobooks and podcasts. I would appreciate any and all suggestions.

Typical view for 3-5 hours of my work day. Today, I drove around 230 miles. Over a month I’ll drive between 3-4,000 miles.

Pit stop #1 to dispose of my morning tea and stretch my legs. A lap or 2 around the Evil Empire is ~1,500 steps.

Got to my 1st location for the day and noticed GA State Patrol about to fuck up someone’s day. Stay safe ladies and gentlemen and wear your vest.

Pardon the shitty pic, and the chicken scratch handwriting. Did a mini audit (of a location I received a complaint on in a different city) on a scratch sheet of paper which happened to have work relevant info printed on the back. Stores have to make more in Gross Retail than their 46% of Gross Game revenue. This particular store is on my naughty list. November’s reporting isn’t due yet which is why it’s blank.

Grabbed my camera and stretched my legs. Gorgeous courthouse and monument.

Some Christmas decorations.

Historic Church with some Christmas color.

Walked a few blocked and snapped houses decorations.

Walk around town ~ 1,500 more steps.

Drove some more and pulled over to snap some more pictures. Lake Oconee

Sun through the tree. I’ll not even call myself an Amateur photographer. Beginning to understand a very small portion of what it takes to make an amazing photograph. Gotta start somewhere.

Sometimes a lady has to pee in the woods. There aren’t any great places to stop between Monticello and my next location. “P-Style” is something every girl should have. Because squatting in the woods means this girl pees on her shoes.

Lunch break while writing reports then stretches my legs for a bit before making the drive back.

Work requires a token random security code plus a personal code to access the database offsite.

Returned some library books. Husband and I are looking to retire sooner rather than later. We have one rental and are looking to buy another as soon as it meets all the requirements.

Beautiful church. Trees are finally allowing enough of a view to capture all its splendor.

Back home at the end of the workday. Crackdog getting some exercise after a hard day of laying around. Disc golf basket in the backyard. Highly recommend the sport. Pretty low investment to start playing and really rewarding.

Spoiled

Rotten. Ginger aka Crackdog tax.

(I like to pay my taxes early)

I also don’t know how to edit the order ????????‍♀️

My drunk azaleas deciding to bloom in December.

Camellia trees are starting to bloom! I adore all the camellia trees planted here. They are pretty old and all different colors. Very nice having color around the house in the dead of winter.

A few Cannas hanging on. I asked my Daddy for a few bulbs earlier in the year. He loves flowers, has hundreds and hundreds of them on the farm. He gave me 35 bulbs!!

Supper time. Smoked bacon wrapped pork tenderloin stuffed with spinach and cream cheese. Delicious! Husband said the recipe is a keeper. Water with some salt and lime.

Our fridge. I like to do bulk meal prepping on the weekend. Makes it easier throughout the week. With as much driving as I do for work, it is impossible to eat healthy without meal prepping!

Last but not least, my drunk kumquat. My 30th Birthday present lovingly planted by the husband. I didn’t prune it last year, and it is very, very drunk with fruit right now!

The husband works really long days. He left at 6am and will be back in about an hour. Tonight is LEG DAY! My favorite! Specifically, Quads and Glutes. I do 2 leg days a week because if I cram in all in one workout, I’m useless the day after. Tonights lineup: kickbacks, box squats, curls + extensions, adductor, and then single leg presses until I can’t see or walk straight.

Edit: A few frequent question

1. What my occupation is? The company I work for is somewhat controversial, I hesitate to say anything too specific about the industry due to liking my job and not wanting to fuck it up. It required several years in an law enforcement type field with investigation experience and familiarity with basic finance and accounting knowledge.

2. Recipe sauce ruled.me/bacon-wrapped-stuffed-pork-tenderloin/

3. The pint glass. Got it at Dragoncon back in September. It was at a booth, and I wish I could provide the vendor name.
