A Weekend Well Spent!!

Happy Monday!! I know it is the least favorite day so lets all just hope that it goes by quickly!!


I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. I spent Saturday being board so I ran my required 2 miles for my training schedule and then was still board so I decided to try out my new video for one of my cross training days. The video is called the Bar Method. It is exercises using a ballet bar. Kelly Ripa is a huge fan of it. I wasn't sure how hard it would be but OH MY GOODNESS I am so sore, and it's Monday! However, I did have motivation for the workout. I watch Michael Phelps swim and he is definitely some motivation!


Sunday I skipped church, which is a huge deal for me. But it was for a good cause. This lady right here.




It was my Sissy's birthday!! We drove to Nashville to eat lunch with them a the Loveless Cafe. If you have not been there you need to go. It is delicious and its on of the 1000 places to go before you die. We had a wonderful time and Sissy enjoyed all her gifts!


Now it's time for the week to start. I will be spending this week and weekend getting everything ready before I start my classes next Tuesday!! WOW!! I can't believe its time already. Let's just hope that I remember how to study.

Easy Friday!!

I am safely back from the library event that I had today! So thank you all for your prayers! haha!

Shelby, a co-worker, and I had such a good time educating people of the benefits they can get from their government assistance. We also talked a lot and just enjoyed spending some time out of the office. It added some much needed fun into my work week.

After we were done at the library we had lunch at this delicious restaurant. I am from the south so I love my sweet ice tea and they have they best!!!



Then we went next door to a place called Shoe Nami. If you are in the Memphis area then you need to stop by! They always have such great deal on really cute shoes!

We also made a pit stop at Target so Shelby could get an outfit for a party she is going to next weekend. The theme is Jersey Shore so she got some really short shorts and a long tank top with a ton of accessories! She is going to look amazing once she finished the outfit off with her make-up.

This was such a relaxing Friday and I am so looking forward to this weekend!!

The Shoppe Around the Corner

I was in Barnes and Nobel yesterday to order one of my Sissy's Birthday gifts. While I was standing in line I got the over whelming need to watch "You've Got Mail". I like this movie a lot but it's not one that I would just go to. However, every time I am in a bookstore I want to go home a watch that movie. Or When I am watching that movie I want to go browse around in a bookstore. Is this just me?


So I did go home a watch "You've Got Mail" and even thought its no "Sleepless in Seattle" it is very cute. I have mentioned that I love back to school shopping and the way that new school supplies smell. As I was watching the movie Tom Hanks says how he would send Meg Ryan a bouquet of freshly sharpen pencils because he loves fall! How great would it be to get a bouquet of sharpen pencils!!


I am starting back to grad school this semester and I am both extremely excited and nervous to see how well I can handle work and school?! But I do love school. If it paid me instead of me having to pay for it I would probably be a professional student! haha!

On a side note yesterday I got called out on facebook about not blogging about certain people. So here is my shout out to them.


Mark Griffin is the gentleman in the mustard yellow jacket. I am sure this picture has an explanation! haha! But this seems right.





Bobby is the one on the left. Again this picture seems to capture the essence of Bobby. Haha!



They are both pretty awesome guys!

It's almost Friday everyone! And I am so excited because I will have a day out of the office to work and event at the Memphis Library! However, the event is one for ex-cons that want a second chances so if anyone would like to say a prayer for my safety tomorrow that would be much appreciated! :)

Top 2 Tuesday . . . Characters

Top 2 Characters You Would Want To Play on a TV Show or Movie

1. Brooke Davis on One Tree Hill

She quickly became my favorite character. She started out as a slutty snobby cheerleader but you grew to love her because she was not that at all. I love how Brooke is very independent and she is such a strong character. Plus she has amazing style!







And it doesn't hurt that she gets to kiss this cutie!




2. Elle Woods from Legally Blonde
Oh she will make you laugh. She has such a positive outlook on life and she is hilarious. And she is someone that you just should never under estimate because she is determined to succeed and prove you wrong!

I Could Be Happy In Denver

This weekend was very relaxed and I soaked in every minute of it!

Friday night Bunny and I went running since we are in full training mode for the Half in December. As we were walking into the gym, it was just to hot to run outside, we notice that the parking lot was pretty empty. Then we realized duh because everyone else has a social life and is not at the gym on a Friday night. We began to fell like losers but Bunny said that we were just dedicated runners in training. I think she can get away with this because she had a date the night before; however, I don't have an excuse.

That's right Bunny had a date Thursday night. I am pretty sure her and this new someone are a little smitten with each other and I am so excited for her!!

Saturday I got to see Savannah and have breakfast with her while she was in town. I always love it when I get to see her!! She cracks me up the whole time. Later that afternoon I had a wedding to attend which was very sweet! The best part was the singer that they had at the reception, he was incredible!

Sunday was Church and then more running but I made sure that I was done in time to watch my sexy Timmy play in his first preseason game! I had to wait all the way until the fourth quarter for them to put him in! No offense to Brady Quinn but he was not playing well and they should have put Tim in long before!! But I did finally get to see him and watch him make his first NFL touchdown, which he ran in himself!! And thank goodness he had his hair fixed in time for the game!
Oh I would move to Denver for this boy, I could be happy in Denver! haha!

When You Wish Upon A Star!

This morning we were having our daily huddle meeting time (not work related just catching up with the amazing girls I work with). We began talking about upcoming vacations and places that we are going, what to go and have been before.

My dream come true would be to spend the night in Cinderella's Castle!! To say that I love Cinderella would probably be an understatement. She has always been my choice of the Disney princesses.

And look how incredible this place is . . .

The only problem is you have to win a night in the castle. The computer will select a random time and location to select the winner. For example, the 7th person to go through the turnstile at 2:03 pm at Space Mountain. So this makes it a little difficult to attain the goal!!

But if I ever did win . . . HOLY COW I WOULD FREAK OUT!! Maybe it could happen if I wish upon a star?!
