I waited a few days to post a New Years Resolution blog post, because I wanted to get the brunt of the “typical” New Year, New Me posts out of the way before I address 2017. This year, I don’t have resolutions. Resolutions, in my opinion, are things that you rarely have success on. Rather, … More New Year’s Revolution
2016: Back in the gym, a trip to Chicago, a trip to Los Angeles, a new job, lots of job perks, a few trips to Minnesota, family trips to Iowa, Mac & Cheetos, first set of couples pictures, and a marriage license. Onto the next… 2017.
Aside from these pictures, this was the worst year of my life. The actual words out of Dylan’s mouth right now were “Pretty much everything about 2016 blew, except for we planned a wedding… and we didn’t die.” 2016 was the year that was supposed to be this “year of growth and incredible life events”. … More Goodbye 2016- You sucked.
I’ve been working out to “lose weight” for almost five years… What the hell. That’s actually a long time and I didn’t even realize it. But, in that five years, I’ve done some pretty intense, mildly embarrassing, and some just plain silly things to help “aid” in my weight loss journey. This list came to … More #getFIT- 20
If you didn’t understand the first two times that I’ve dropped it on the blog, we joined a gym in November… Then we went home for Thanksgiving, gained four pounds (thanks a lot Chrissy for filling your entire house with candy. thanks a lot mom for making a perfect Thanksgiving meal), and fell off the … More #getFIT -19
Christmas is in 9 days. First, that’s really soon. That means in a week we will be in Duluth (as long as Minnesota decides to stop snow storming before then.) Bummer for you guys, cause that’s not cute. All we have in Iowa right now is an ice storm, but Dylan and I are planning … More Merry Christmas, before Christmas…
It’s been a very long time. Almost three weeks I think. Let’s just chat, shall we? Over the last three weeks, life has changed a bit. First things first, Dylan and I have our marriage license- ready to be signed by the judge! Only 29 days until I’m officially a married woman. I keep getting … More What is my life? #12
Yaaaaaaaaa’ll. There’s been a few things going on lately… Just a couple. Let’s chat. First, let’s talk about the fact that when I sleep- I can hear everything. Every single morning, the dog whining downstairs wakes me up. Every afternoon when I get home, I get to listen to crappy music bumping above me. Seriously, … More What is my life? #11
I think at the beginning of November, I said something along the lines of “I have a case of the Mondays and I needed a break”… There seemed to be something more going on that I didn’t even realize… I want to start off by reminding you all that I’m pretty transparent on this blog. … More Why Are You Crying… Again?
Cliche, I know. But I did it. Finally, after like 18 months of being engaged, two months of “wedding planning”, and basically seven minutes of looking at dresses- I said yes. I’m not the typical bride. I think we all realized that from the get-go. If it wasn’t evident in that fact that I abandoned deciding every … More Say “Yes” To The Dress
