Hey friends, Happy Thursday to ya! Since I shared my Q & A post a few weeks ago, I have received a ton of questions about how I keep up with my busy schedule and still maintain a balanced lifestyle. So, today I’m sharing more about my daily routine and how I stay fueled and full throughout my busiest week day with OREO Thins Bites from Kroger.
On Mondays, I have designated work from home duties and responsibilities. I start by waking up around 7am, brewing up some coffee and taking my dog for a long walk. I’m usually sitting at my desk by 7:30am and have turned my phone on airplane mode, which is my Monday ritual from when I wake up to about 9am. All of my Skype meetings and conference calls are scheduled on Mondays between 9am and 10:30am. By the time those are done, I’m ready to pop in my first snack of the day - OREO Thins Bites Fudge Dipped Original creme. I snack on a few then throw the resealable pouch into my bag to head to a local coffee shop. I try to be at my destination and working by 11am for two reasons: 1. I’ve missed the busy work rush traffic 2. The peak of the weather is happening around this time which is perfect on warmer days to get a table outside. After about 2-3 hours of emails, answering comments, scheduling posts for the day and engaging with other bloggers, I’m ready for lunch. I usually pack my lunch as a way to keep my day moving smoothly and, by doing so, I avoid the hustle and bustle of lunch hour. Usually eating a wrap or chicken salad, I snack on a few more OREO Thins Bites to satisfy my sweet tooth and power through the afternoon.
Around 2 or 3, I head home to take a quick break from my computer, walk my dog and check the mail. Depending on how much time I have, I can usually go through any packages that have arrived and organize all mail (bills, coupons, etc.). My afternoon and early evening usually fill up with volunteer meetings, quick dinners and more emails. By the time I’m heading to my 4pm or 5pm meetings, I am ready for a few more OREO Thins Bites , especially when trying to get through work rush hour traffic. Since I keep them stored in my bag, they are always accessible to pop in a few if my meetings go over the time or I have back to back obligations. Not to mention the pouch makes it easy to share with others. And with 9 cookies being a serving size, I never feel guilty about popping one or two in throughout the course of the day! Around 7pm I’m heading home to prep dinner or catch up on work. From then until about 11pm (sometimes later), I’m editing content, scheduling social media posts, mapping out my schedule for the next day, planning with my photographer and running through pictures. In between that, I’m usually having a half cup of coffee, catching up on my water intake then feeding and taking out my dog. When the day of work is finally over, I go through my skin care routine for that day, pack my bag and lunch for the next work day.
Well friends, that’s all that I have for my Monday schedule. I try to stick to this schedule best as possible to start my week of on a great foot. What are your go-to snacks through the busy day? Be sure to stop by your local Kroger, head to the cookie aisle, and grab some of my favorite OREO Thins Bites Fudge Dipped Original creme and definitely be sure to taste test the other varieties like OREO Thins Bites Original, OREO Thins Bites Fudge Dipped Mint creme and OREO Thins Bites Fudge Dipped Coconut creme. Also, follow along with OREO on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. Leave me a comment and let me know how you keep up with your busy days! -xo, Azanique <3

Your Monday schedule is so organized! I typically pop my first snack at around 3pm when my coffee buzz has worn off and my lunch has somewhat digested and I’m ready to get the bulk of my work done. Love Oreos whenever I snack!

Sarah says
It looks like you have very busy Mondays. I love that you get to basically turn your phone off for a while to get things done, I should really start doing the same. Also, Oreos are my favourite snacks. I’ve never even seen the thin bites dipped in a store here, but they look so yummy!
Azanique Rawl says
Turning off my phone helps the most! I always pick it up and start scrolling if it’s not off.
Laura at Fairly Southern says
I developed a gluten allergy a few years ago and really miss Oreos! There’s nothing quite like them! I admire your good work ethic and scheduling skills for your Mondays…the airplane mode trick is something I may need to implement.
Rachel (@RKCSouthern) says
It’s hard to say no to Oreos!! I can see why they’re America’s number 1 selling cookie!!
Molly {Moon} Burton (@miss_mollymoon) says
Oreos are seriously the best snack–so addicting! I haven’t seen these little dipped minis, but I’m definitely going to find them. They look delicious!
