-My friend Katie saving me at work yesterday. When I first started (a little over a year ago), I quickly learned that since our schedules change throughout the day, we need to be prepared for anything. Weight room, teaching, Zumba and pool all have different outfits/shoes. Well, I *thought* pool was my last class yesterday,…

In my efforts to make my style more classic, I’ve been inspired by vintage looks, which is one of the many reasons I love Meg’s style so much. While I’ll never totally vintage-ify my closet- I’ll always be a mall girl at heart- I’ve had fun shopping more classic styles. I’ve been eyeing the pieces…

After one night of nightmares (which I wrote about), the next night I woke up to a fork in the bed. Not even joking. Bella took my “lunch fork” out of my work gym bag and brought it into our bed. When I rolled over, I thought my leg was on something wet, which was…

When I first heard of the Nordic Diet, I couldn’t help but think of the Maelstrom ride in Norway at Epcot. It has trolls and scares the life out of me. But that doesn’t say much because we all know I’m a huge chicken. Never been on it? Here ya go: Random side note: does…

The Pilot came home early from work today! He had to fly balls early so he was finished with the day earlier. I was grateful because I forgot to switch the carseat base from his SUV back to my car, so Liv and I just chilled at home with Bell today. Lots of songs were…

It’s no secret that I love to read. It’s my favorite way to unwind at the end of the day -I try to go upstairs to read for 20 minutes or so before bed- and am usually reading an informational book and a fluff book at the same time. I like to think they balance…

Good morning! Happy new week to ya 🙂 I think we all woke up with a case of the “smushy face” over here. Sometimes when Bella wakes up, half of her face is smushed up and we’ll call her smushy face. I slept horribly last night. I have no idea if it was the wine…
