Friday's Letters

Happy Friday friends!

Here are your Friday's Letters, thanks to the beautiful Ashley from Adventures of Newlyweds!

Enjoy!

  

Dear Friday, I can't begin to tell you how happy I am that you are finally here.  This week has been one of the most difficult in a long time, and I am ready to put it behind.

 Dear Husband, thank you for taking care of me this week.  You are so patient with me, and there are not enough words to express how much I appreciate everything you do.

  Dear Body, you failed me this week.  But I am not giving up on you, and the running will resume this weekend.  At least I know that my stomach issues are not related to running, and you will still allow me to complete The Color Run next week.

  Dear Work, I don't really know what to say to you, except that the stress/anxiety you have brought to my life has made me so sick that I don't like you at all right now. 

  Dear Hunger Games, you were so good.  I'm so glad I got to see you last weekend.  You exceed  my expectations, and I cannot wait for your second, and third movies!

  Dear Blog/Followers, I'm sorry I neglected you this week.  I did not have the strength nor energy to post, but I still kept up with all of your blogs!

  Dear Husband, I love you very very very much.

  Have a GREAT weekend everyone!!!

Friday's Letters

Happy Friday friends!

Here are your Friday's Letters, thanks to the beautiful Ashley from Adventures of Newlyweds!

Enjoy!

Dear Body, thank you so much for keeping up with my new found love for running! I think this is the start of something good!

Dear Husband, I'm so excited for our Atlanta weekend, and some quality time together. It's been a while! Also, thank you for taking me to go see The Hunger Games.  I know you are not into it, but this is why you are an amazing husband!

Dear Kelly from work, you don't read this blog, but I hope you know that us becoming friends has made my transition so much easier. Thank you for being so welcoming! 

Dear abc Family, between Pretty Little Liars, Make it of Break it, and The Lying Game, you have turned me into a 15 year old high school girl again, and I love it!  

Dear Happy Endings, you are my favorite sitcom since Friends, and I am so so so "happy" that I subble upon you this past fall - you are so funny!!!

Dear Lola & Lucy, I hope you know how much I love you, and miss living with you!  I wish you could live with us, but it wouldn't be fair to leave you in our little apartment all day long.  You get so spoiled by grandma and grandpa, and they have that big yard for you to play! 

Dear July, your baby fever is growing more and more everyday.  It makes me a little sad because with a new job comes the whole "I have to be employed 12 months to get paid during maternity leave."  So hang in there...10 more months to go!

Dear Followers, you make my days everytime I receive one of your sweet comments! I know I don't blog as much as I should, but I'm thankful that you stick around, and still have faith in me!

Dear Husband, you make me laugh with all our inside jokes, and I'm so thankful for Leo, James, Peanut and Jiggy. Oh...and Jane too! haha

I hope you have an amazing weekend friends!!!

The Color Run

Am I the only one who feels like this week is just DRAAAAAGING?

I'm sure it has everything to do with the fact that Atlanta is officially invaded by the pollen.

I'm not talking about your regular Spring time pollen count.

They say a high count is 50-100, and we are over 9000 a day.

Yes, it's pollen madness over here!

Everyone is feeling sick, slow, and just kinda blah.

I've decided that I wanted to become a runner.  A real one.

Not a competitive one though.

But a regular weekly runner.

It's one of those things I've always wanted to.

But felt like I couldn't.

But one night last week while at the gym, I told myself OK, let's do it.

And I've ran every night since!

Of course, it's the beginning, and there is that euphoria.

However, I have high hopes, and I'm really motivated!

So motivated that I already signed up for my first 5K!

It's called The Color Run.  Have you heard of it?

You get a plain white t-shirt, and they spray you with paint at every 1K.

Doesn't it sound AWESOME?!?!

I figured I should start my running career with a fun race.

And this one was two perfect to pass up.

Even though it is in two weeks.

And that kind of freaks me out!

Oh well - Go Big or Go Home, right!?

At least I'll be covered in paint!

 

I don't have a clever title, so Happy Spring Day!

I'm pretty sure this year's St. Patrick's Day was my favorite so far.

I wish I had more pictures to show, but I was busy having too much fun!

We could not have asked for a better Saturday in Atlanta. 

Sunny, temps in the mid 80s, and no rain.

Perfect weather for a day in Piedmont park.

We started the day at our friend's house a few blocks from Park Tavern.

I fell in love with his house, along with the amazing view of the Atlanta skyline.

Since our lease is up at the end of June, we're actually talking about possibly moving to Midtown.

I would LOVE to live close Piedmont Park.

Below are the few pictures that are worth sharing.

  I don't really take a lot of self portraits.

But my hair actually looked decent Saturday!

Oh and quick update on my Mark Cuban twitter frenzy.

He actually re-tweeted me Friday night during Shark Tank!

Within 5 minutes, I had over 100 email notifications.

Thanks for blowing up my twitter account Mark!

People who re-retweet his re-tween of my re-tweet.

(are you confused yet?!)

And people who decided to follow me.

Most of these people are aspiring entrepreneurs.

I'm not kidding.  Some people actually asked me if I was an entrepreneur too.

Or creepy guys.  No surprise there. 

Are they intrigued by the fact that Mark Cuban follows me?

I hate to break it to them, but I do not know him. Sigh.

And I sure as hell have no business connections to him.

But if I did, you best believe I wouldn't be sharing that on twitter.

I'd be too busy being a millionaire!

  

Happy Tuesday friends!



Something New: Friday's Letters

Before we start, there has been some development with our neighbors.

After the Sunday night debacle, our leasing office had to issue a noise violation.

Then Wednesday night they did it again. 

So this time, I tried to be nice, and left them a note with my number so we could discuss.

Neighbor girl calls me, tells me she lives with her bf, they work the night shift, blah blah blah.

I tell her that I understand, but there is a time and a place to be loud, and party.

And that the majority of people SLEEP at night, so we can be alive at work the next day.

She apologized, I think we're good.

Then last night at 1.30am, it happened, AGAIN.

I'm tellling ya...my patience is wearing out.

I woke up to neighbor girl yelling and cursing at her boyfriend.

~~~~~~~

Do you know Ashley from Adventures of Newlyweds?

If you don't, you have been missing out!

She is one of my favorite daily reads, and she is just awesome.

I decided to switch things up a bit, and link up to her Friday's Letters.

I thought it would be a nice change from the traditional Fill in the Bank Friday!

Dear Husband, thank you for putting up with my emotional roller coster these past few weeks.  I know I haven't been the most pleasant person to be around, but I am working on it!
Dear Neighbors, you are testing my nerves, and you are on thin ice.  One more strike, and I'm calling the cops. 
Dear July, remember St. Patrick's day of 2007? think about that tomorrow before someone hands you a green jello shot. 
Dear Body, I'm not sure where the sudden envy to run is coming from, but I'm liking it! 
Dear Lowerback, please hang in there, and don't ruin this for me.  I need to get in shape for Summer! 
Dear Paris, I miss you (and my home) so much lately.  If all goes well, I am coming to see you very soon so I can have my yearly dose of macarons, pastries, and walking around your beautiful streets.
Dear New Job, these past two months have been pretty rough, and emotionally draining, but I feel like things are looking up. 
Dear Husband, I love our Shark Tank addiction, and the fact that we now have long conversations about coming up with our own million dollar idea.  I should ask my new friend Mark Cuban what he thinks.  haha I love you so much Bug :)

I hope you all have an awesome weekend!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!
