Book Review... Maybe not.

So my original plan for today's review was to have finished Quiet by Susan Cain. I even had my bf drive all day today for the express purpose of having the ability to read... That being said I didn't read a single word from that book today, not sure on why as I did bring it with me all day. I guess I just wanted to enjoy the time with him today. So with that I guess the book review post is gonna wait until this weekend like just about everything else today.

We did go to look at super nice apartment today though, the cariage works apartments in York.

I mean it had pretty much everything I could ask for, loft style apartments, open kitchen living room floor plan, big bedrooms, nice big bathroom. Even the shared amenities were amazing, the community room was huge, it had a business center, a fitness center, and a cute little play ground if the bf and I have kids. It even had amazing security, keyless entry (have to have a keyfob to get in or be buzzed in), they also require a credit and criminal background check with the application fee. Now all of these things I absolutely love... The only thing that I have issues with, well one of the things that I have issues with, is that this apartment complex is income based. Now I don't so much have an issue with income based housing, far from it, as most places that I have looked at in the past it was simply a minimum amount you have to make in order to live in them. This apartment however, placed a max amount of income that you can make as a household in order to live in the building. And my bf and I actually almost make too much money to live in this building with the income cap. And in my mind with all do respect that is so jacked up. Oh well on to the next I suppose.

After the failed apartment visit, we had a late lunch/early dinner at this super amazing BBQ place.

Mission BBQ, if you live in York, PA or pretty much anywhere near one of their restaurants, you have to try it. I got the brisket sandwich and the bf got the chopped brisket sandwich, both of these were absolutely amazing, even with the outrageous pricing (you get a lot for your money though). I don't have a picture of the sandwiches as we were both really hungry and I just wanted to eat. We did decide that we would go back once a month or once every other month as kind of a date type thingy. Oh and I forgot to mention they do cater

and offer their BBQ for sale at a meat market style pricing (per lb pricing). That being said we will probably pick that up as a meal for those who help us move in April.

Not bad for a day that started out as just a plain old pancakes kinda day.

Well that is it for tonight hope you all have a wonderful day

ETA: On a more literary note, there is one book that I am super excited for this month, it is Hollow City by Ransom Riggs. I have been excited for this sequal to Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children and waiting for its release for almost a year since I found out. That is all I have to say on that. 

Luv ya all!

Going random tonight, oh yea...

This is just going to be a short unplanned post. Sorry I still get to be random sometimes right? Anyway, tomorrow I go back to work after what my bf calls our weekend (I rarely get two days off in a row so yea) and I am planning on going for a 45-75 minute run/jog before going into work. Sad thing is that there is a freeze warning in effect out here until tomorrow morning at 9am. Now the question I really need to ask myself is do I want to wear my normal running attire or do I want to dig out a pair of pants that possibly do not even fit anymore with the hope of retaining some body heat on this run?

Work wise things are going relatively well, a little boring but that is to be expected in such a specialty shop. That and people are on average more likely to get pregnant during the winter months so we should be expecting more business right? Maybe I am remembering that statistic wrong... I'll get back to you all on that later. But anyway I don't know if I will actually post too much about my 9-5 job because there are some rules with working in retail that should be abided by. Mainly that I can be canned if I post anything that reflects poorly upon my employer or business. However I think that since social media really took off that this has been the case, and as a result usually try to keep my whining about work to a minimum as it is a paycheck.

But like I said before my plan is to do a medium length run in the morning followed by a short one to get the blood flowing in my knee again after work as well. The cold has really been doing a number on me every day. So I have basically been living with Icy Hot on my leg every night. I do not like the menthol smell of it, not at all. But it could be worse right. Yes I could be waking up with a swollen immobile leg every morning before going for my run. That my friends would be unacceptable.

The main reason for the running schedule for tomorrow is that I am still training for the Disney Princess 1/2 marathon in February and I do not want to mess up my race for my qualifying time. I think it will be the Give thanks for Lebanon 10k in just under a month, well actually exactly a month from today. It is a run that is going to be in Lebanon, PA on the 23 of November. I am pretty excited it will be my first real race in years, I don't expect to place too well but atlas time will have done it right ? And I will be one step closer to my long term goals.

Well it think that is going to be it for my rambling today, I leave you with a picture of the breakfast my boyfriend made me this morning.

It was most delicious to be honest and I hope to get him to do it again. They are cinnamon rolls put into the waffle iron. And now that really is all for today's update ish thing.

Luv ya
