Something to Talk About…

website

March 24, 2010

Soooo much going on these days I don’t know how I can keep up with it all… but somehow, between Outlook calendars and my handy-dandy Moleskin planner, I seem to–I assure you, this post may be be a bit bumpy and I’m going to ramble, but it’s a great day and I am as happy as any girl could be so we’ll just dabble in the goods for a bit…
I’m bad, very bad–Victoria’s Secret knows just how to get me. Being a customer on their email list is an inconvenience when you’re trying to save money, BUT, some of their bathing suits were 25% off so I decided I needed to reward myself and splurge a bit since I will be at the beach in a month–WAHOO!!
Here’s my little polka dot bikini:
{**to get the discount, enter in VS25SWIM at the checkout for the offer code}
And I just HAD to add another pair of wedges to my already huge collection–oops!!
{hey, they were on sale for $29–I got the natural suede color}
And in other fun news, my friend Candice surprised Jeff and I with a FABULOUS housewarming gift: these great coasters!! Look familiar?? She ordered them from the same place I got his personalized map cufflinks… they are already coming in handy and each one represents a place we have visited together–thank you Candice–we love them!!
Last night, my friend Brittney and I had dinner at our favorite mexican locale, Las Maracas… the weather was gorgeous and I decided I couldn’t eat leftovers at home so we splurged and had a girly dinner, just the two of us–living with a boy has definitely made me realize I HAVE to have my girl time =)
And I saved the best for last!! Today marks the 1 month countdown until D-Day–April 24th will be here before I know it… and even better, today was the day I OFFICIALLY REGISTERED for the Country Music 1/2 Marathon–as if my training didn’t mean enough, spending almost $100 to run in a race sealed the deal on my participation this year! It feels so good to know it’s getting closer and my body is getting ready to take a beating…
                                           
the course map–yikes!!
Well, that’t all from me for now–back to the daily grind… I’ll be back later!! Have a wonderful Wednesday friends… OXOX

    Those coasters are too cute! My first half is in June – any particular type of training you would suggest? I've heard of all different types = what worked for you??

  2. Jenn Wade says:

    Hey sweets! I need to know where you got those coasters – they are adorable! 🙂

    And great job on your training – I love keeping up with you and how we all inspire each other!

  3. Those coasters are adorable….and congrats on registering for your race!!!

    Ps – I followed along w/ your post yesterday and blogged about the things I *think* I can't live without. I linked back to your blog, so you might have some new visitors today. 🙂

  4. I love those coasters! Very unique 🙂

    Love the swimsuit! I have one from VS the black solid one it's so cute on! You'll love it! I bought those wedges too but I ended up thinking they were too low and now I'm on a hunt for wedges! I totally look up to you on the 1/2 marathon, maybe one day I will dedicate myself to one. For now I'll live it through you! (And girl time is a must) after you move in with the boy..

  7. Jess says:

    You just convinced me to buy a bathing suit…Victoria's Secret is where I always get them!! You are a bad influence on a girl trying to save money 🙂

  8. Are you and Britt naked in that pic? Haha, jk 🙂

    I am obsessed with those coasters. Are they from Etsy?

    By the way, I am thinking of picking up my blog again, but I think I may want to do something different with it… not sure. I'll keep you in the loop.

  13. Must. have. coasters. Please share the love on where those beauties came from! What a great gift!!!

  14. Keri says:

    Congrats on the one month countdown! The race looks like a blast…I want to do the marathon there someday!

  15. TiffanyClark says:

    Love the suit and VS 🙂 I am also training for the Country Music Half marathon! I remember when I registered, it was a feeling like "No turning back now! Gotta finish this after paying that much money!" This is my first half-marathon! Love your blog, by the way! So cute!
