the bad news: my lemon coconut protein cheesecakes didn’t set up to the consistency i wanted them to.
the good news: they taste amazing and after 10 minutes in the freezer they are a perfect protein treat.
the bad news: i don’t plan to share the recipe until i get it right.
the good news: i WILL get it right.. eventually.. and will then share the recipe.
the bad news: i called in sick to work today.. but still went in for an hour.
the good news: i went to the doctor and he gave me cough medicine with codeine.
the bad news: the bottle is kinda small…
the good news: i just barely took some and it’s already kicking in.
the bad news: i just ate my last coconut popsicle. it was my 7th popsicle today.. no big deal.
the good news: i bought three boxes of popsicles at the store while filling my prescriptions.
the bad news: i am running out of good news and bad news and this post is probably gonna be real lame.
the good news: i successfully completed the march photo a day challenge on instagram!
the bad news: that’s the extent of my content for the day.. aside from the codeine and popsicle rambles above.
the good news: you can stop reading at any time.
here’s the recap of #marchphotoaday. if you already follow me on instagram.. bad news: this post is nothing new. come back tomorrow!

i live in meadow crossing, but there are no meadows in sight!

4: bedside
penny always steals my bedside!

penny was super stoked to get to daycare that morning.. grinning ear to ear.

6: 5pm
right after picking them up from daycare.. they passed out IMMEDIATELY.

7: something you wore
earrings from peach treats, deodorant, toms, and my engagement/wedding ring (fun fact, i didn’t get a wedding band because i don’t want to have the chance of losing more than one ring.)

8: window
i work at a window company so this was perfect! this was the view out my window–a photo of a bunch of windows being made!

9: red
always hitting the red lights that day.

10: loud
the tattoo machines at the convention were super loud. buzzzzzzz.

my brother in law, brad. he works at gold’s.

marshall gave me these von zippers on our first dating anniversary back in 2008. awe.

17: green
lots of green in my costco cart!

18: a corner of your home
favorite corner.

19: funny
my mom is hilarious.. she was sore from our pull-up competition and this was her whining. for heroin.

20: before & after
before getting ready for work.. after getting ready for work. clearly not much effort that day.

21: delicious
these are a great bedtime snack! good thing they are gone now because i had zero self control with them.

27: your name
i promised you my name is one of a kind. NOBODY else has it.

28: trash
i love the simply bar! i am trying not to eat in my car now that it’s detailed (i paid a good chunk of change to have it done) but i couldn’t resist that day.. but i did make sure to take my trash out of the car!

29: feet
i hate human feet.. but LOOOOVE doggy feet. so cute. and they smell like corn chips and/or popcorn at all times.

30: toy
i was at babies’r’us getting a baby shower gift. funny, most people in my instagram feed commented that they thought these were dog toys. i don’t do babies!

31: where you relax
yep, the grocery store! marshall even went with me on saturday.

and that’s that!
april’s photo a day challenge has already started. you guys should do it! if you don’t have instagram, you can always participate on facebook or twitter.
here’s the assignment:

happy photographing!
Q~
what was the last thing you photographed?
xo. janetha g.







I just took a picture of the ACE group fitness training books that I got in the mail today! Excited to get started!
The photo a day things always look so fun! But I’m so bad about pictures these days!
My (your) cauliflower pizza crust!
Fun! I love dog feet too! Human feet? Gross. I totally relate on the name thing… My name is also unique. A lot of people have it as a nickname but when they find out it is my real, God-given name they are shocked! And the spelling is weird. My in-laws and friends constantly misspell it! ha!
I was going to do the April challenge but think I will wait and see what May’s challenge has in store instead :)
Hee hee. I love doggy feet and how they smell too! My husband thinks I’m a weird-o, which is probably true.
Not to be all creepy or anything, but I grew up in Meadow Crossing. My sister still lives there with her husband and kiddo. Also, my cousin and her family live there too. Small world. :)
Not creepy at all!
Hang in there!!! Mas popsicles! Love all of the pictures involving randy ;). I just photographed wonton soup!
my fancy pants (dirty 30!) birthday dessert i split with friends at audrey clair restaurant in philly on saturday. chocolate lava cake with homemade whipped cream and fresh strawberries with a candle from the waitress. totally meant to be photographed!
Clearly I need to follow you on Instagram. Most of my photos are of my dog too!! I sometimes try to get Louis to take photos of me, but then I’m unsatisfied with the way I look and yell at him for failing to capture my clearly slightly hidden beauty… Ahh marriage!
I also photo loads of food so I think my last photo was a slightly suspect looking one of banana smothered in nut butter.
oh man, codeine is the ONLY thing that helps me when i get a cough, which is every single time I get sick. my tolerance is so high that it doesn’t even make me tired anymore :)
The photo a day thing sounds fun – I think I’m going to start :)
Ha! You are too funny. The last thing I photographed (but didn’t record anywhere though I thought I would later) was the ICU at the hospital where my dad was living this weekend. Scary story. An artery in his esophagus exploded and he needed a blood transfusion and all sorts of crazy sh*t! Totally threw me for a loop. I only share this because he’s okay right now, totally out of ICU. But hospitals are so photogenic. I was morbidly taken shots left and right. But I scared myself and deleted everything. The last not hospital related thing I shot was my car right after it rolled through the car wash on Saturday. It rained about 15 minutes later. Can’t win for losing…sigh.
Oh my goodness! Glad the story has a happy ending <3
Am I only the one that finds it hilarious that you eat chocolate covered espresso beans as a BEDTIME snack! I can’t drink coffee or coke or caffeinated tea after about 2 PM or else I will spend the night tossing and turning.
Oh man, coffee and caffeine doesn’t affect me at all. I can drink a few cups and go right to bed!
im glad you learned from me. codeine and a sick day may save you from the torture im now going through…
My last photo I took was for today’s #colour. I love all of your photoaday pics! And even though Ive seen them all already , I still enjoy seeing them again! And I love how you said ” while filling me prescriptions” – LOL, now I am going to be talking like Derek (or
Davy Jones) all night! :)
Can’t wait for the “perfected” recipe!
Hope you are better soon.
LOL! Davey jones has a TOTALLY different accent than Derek! That’s like comparing a new yorker and a californian or southern accent hee hee!
Sorry you’re sick and that you still ended up going into work AND to the doctor. I have got to be on my deathbed to go to the dr. b/c it’s such a time and energy waste (usually) and takes half the day when I could just be at home on the couch or in bed. Being sick is the pits…I hope you get well soon!!
Probably one of the million pictures of Weston…I can’t get enough!
Such a fun challenge. I laughed out loud at your stick a fork in my, I’m done picture!
LOVE the sunglasses!! You look so cute.
Also, i laughed pretty hard about the fork in your head. Haha. you’re SO clever!
My lunch at the “hip” downtown Denver breakfast eatery called “Snooze” :)
I really need to get on that photo a day thing. I always forget. This post is so not lame- good news! :) can’t wait for the recipe of those cheesecake bars.
ooh my fave is the pic of your HONEYMOON STATUES.
I love this recap! I’ve been wanting to try this photo a day thing but I feel like I would never remember. I should try it though. It’s cool to reflect back on your month. Love that your name is unique! We are unique name twins :)
I love puppy feet too – especially when they’re young and the pads are still perfectly soft. :)
I love these photo-a-day challenges, but I always forget about them until it’s a few days in, and I also don’t have instagram because I am an android user. Sigh. I’ll just live vicariously through yours. :)
And after typing that comment, Instagram releases its Android app. I guess I have no excuse now! :)
I love the whole collections of photos from the challenge- and you look so pretty in your “after” photo- cute outfit!
I didn’t know you were a Subaru driver!! What kind of car do you drive? Us Subaru owners are just a little more awesome than everyone else. (Truth be told, I traded in my cute sportier car for an Outback when I got my dogs- but I LOVE it.)
Also- you were in my dream. We were at Blend, and I found out that you had been lying about your height, and were more like 5’10”. And in fact, everyone there was super tall. It was weird. But I do like that I’m starting to have dreams about Blend. It’s not far off now!!
I have a WRX Wagon and Marshall has a WRX 4 door. We are Subaru whores.
I set about 5 alarms every morning…and still usually end up hitting snooze on the last one a few times! I’m definitely NOT a morning person :)
Love that you didn’t get a wedding band b/c you thought you might lose it. I’m worried about getting an engagement ring because I swear I lose all my rings.
Also — love all the sleepy doggie photos. Your pups are great!
P to the S Feel better soon! Being sick sucks.
I love the dog paws (feet?) comment!!!! Dog paws totally smell like corn chips! Our girl is named Tika so we call her Tortika chip sometimes :)
once you go secret clinical you never go back right?
Feel better soon, Janetha!! <3
I love hanging out and going grocery shopping with Meeker. It IS relaxing.
I have to step up my Photoaday game! You are seriously creative and I do hope you are feeling better!
Cooper takes up a majority of my pics too. :) Does your hubby get jealous? Mine calls Coopy #1. ha!
is it normal in utah to live in plans of homes that have names? we have neighborhoods around here but they aren’t sequestered into little communities like that. interesting! i love that you have a m&m bumper sticker!! free adverts ftw!
the last thing i photographed was a bowl spicy shrimp gumbo. it will be up shortly, it was so tasty!
The last photo I took was of my guest bedroom. I finally finished redecorating it, and I wanted to show it off!
Look! http://janethalaw.com/jsp/Home.jsp
Haha.. funny, because I was named after an attorney named Janetha Hancock (she died.)
Ah this looked like so much fun, and I love all the pictures you took! I want to take part in April, but I have this weird complex about starting from the beginning. So maybe May :)
Those are awesome, super creative pictures! I enjoyed looking at all of them. AND i enjoyed the good news, bad news section. It made me LOL! :)
ya know maybe I[ll do a recap of my photo a day for march too I’ll have to see if that would be like inventing fire getting all those photos onto picasa etc. I loved seeing your photos again- I think I missed one or two.
Darn about the cheesecake things- they looked amazing and creamy- yes in the freezer- share the recipe with me for freezer use ok. Fell better luvie.
In photo #20 (before and after) Where did you get your boots?! They are too cute.
Thanks! Target
