Although the better part of Saturday morning was spent working by training my kick-butt clients, I made sure to make up for it. Work hard, play hard? #YOLO? You only live once. I made up for my hard work by… Brunch! Including a 1 egg + 2 egg white scramble, with zucchini, onion, spinach, tomatoes, [...]
What’s Important (and Not) To Me + Throwback Thursday!
Good morning! This week sure did pass by quickly. I swear, weeks go by double time in the summer – even though the first day of summer was only yesterday! (Is it just me, or does it seem like it’s been summer since April? That’s A-OK with this sun-lovin’ girl ) The heat’s not breaking [...]
Living in the Moment
What a lovely little weekend so far! Mural artwork in uptown Normal When I made my summer bucket list back on the first day of June, I didn’t realize I’d bulldoze half way through it before summer even began!

I’m Over It–My Disinterests
Last Thursday I posted Thursday Things – Obsessions edition. And just like I’ve become obsessed with several things lately, I’ve become disinterested in just as many.

Some Things Never Change

It’s Africa hot, so we’ve been staying inside during the day for the most part, and then venturing outdoors once the sun starts to head over the horizon. During the staying inside time, I obviously had some free [...]
Thursday Things–Obsessions
Yes, I realize both of today’s posts involve the word “things” in the title. I promise I’m not that challenged in the vocabulary department. However, when thinking about what I wanted to rant on about this afternoon, I couldn’t pick just one thing. I have a few things to talk about, so buckle up. 1. [...]
My Favorite Things
Gooood morning! How are we all doing today? Yesterday after getting off of work, I headed straight to the salon to get my ends trimmed off: No big changes, just a trim. I’m actually trying to grow out my natural color, which is more of a golden/strawberry blonde. Right now I kind of have the [...]
