How is tomorrow 2019?! This year has FLOWN by. 2018, you have been SO good to me. This year I got to marry my best friend, defend my dissertation, finish my first marathon, and graduate with my PhD. Here’s to 2019, friends! This 2018 Goals sheet has been hanging on our fridge since 1/1/18. It…
Knee update: my chiropractor thinks it’s my joint capsule flaring up. Sooo, it’s treatable! (Worst case scenario, it’s my meniscus. We are not going down that road yet!) Fingers crossed things continue to improve. I miss long runs! When you wake up from a nap and don’t know where you are or what day it…
I’ve been battling some knee pain for the past few weeks. I’m not sure what’s causing it, but I think it’s related to my ankle sprain last month. Maybe? It’s a weird pain, though, because it comes and goes. I’m seeing my chiropractor again today, so hopefully I can get some answers. I headed out…
Christmas is one of my favorite times of the year. I have SO much to be thankful for. I love celebrating Jesus’ birthday with my favorite people. Our Christmas celebrations started with some Elf watching on Sunday evening. “Bye, Buddy! Hope you find your Dad!” Christmas Eve morning, we had more of this deliciousness. Lu…
This weekend was another crazy one, but that seems to be pretty typical this time of year. There is always something fun to do or someone to see. I cannot believe tonight is Christmas Eve! Let’s rewind…this little angel girl had a hard time getting up Friday morning… I can’t stop eating this. I’d love…
I was pretty worn out yesterday from never falling asleep Tuesday night. I loved some of your suggestions for dealing with insomnia – get up and do something, drink something warm, make a list, drink Calm (I’m totally looking into this), take Melatonin (I do!), spritz lavender on your pillow. I also diffuse lavender oil…
I can’t get enough of this breakfast scramble lately. YUM. I subbed yesterday and about 3 minutes into my drive to school, I realized I had forgotten the dang lunch I had packed. Soooo, I sprinted into a gas station and grabbed this. I’m definitely not used to grabbing my lunch in the mornings anymore.…
For breakfast yesterday I made a massive veggie, egg, and sausage scramble. It was delicious. After breakfast, I headed to the Y to spend some time on the elliptical. I am now over a week into my ‘no running’ time. It’s going okay, but I’m definitely anxious to get back to running. I will start…
My parents hosted the most fun graduation party Sunday afternoon. Here are some of the treats we had. Everything was so delicious and I loved getting to see all of my people. I hid Lu’s toys so she wouldn’t be bothering people with them. She was pretty annoyed with me. She stared at the croquet…
Guys, I did it! Friday night was amazing. It’ll definitely be a night I never forget. Thank you for following along! You all are the best. Before we left town Friday, I showered and curled my hair. Anyone else get a kick out of their curled hair before they brush it out? I always do.…
