Good morning!
I’m sorry I’ve been MIA lately. I got so sick (stomach flu) and then work has been rocking my world – I needed some time to focus and organize my life. I’m figuring out my school situation as well and making some heavy duty decisions about my life and career path. I’ll share everything when I’m situated but some serious soul searching has been had and continues on.
Moving on,
I went out last night. And the night before that. Oh yes, I did. If you know me at all lately, you’d be shocked and proud since I’ve been kind of a homebody – I’ve been stressed and well, I just moved out on my own for the 1st time only months ago so you know how it goes.$$$$
We ventured out to Yogi’s in Solana Beach. A beachside dive bar/club, and since it’s extremely laid back there I stuck to jeans and a tank, which if you know me at all, is right up my alley. It was all about the accessories.
Don’t you just love this necklace?! It’s from Nordstrom and I’m obsessed! It can style even the plainest shirt or dress . I wore it with a LBD at work this week as well and now I’m searching for more to dress up my wardrobe.
Back to last night. I was the sober one per usual so It was entertaining to say the least. I haven’t drank in months now and If I sit here and actually think, let’s see….about 4 months.
*OBSESSION TIME*
Hi, my name is Dawn and I am a Green Bean addict. It’s an obsession really. I make them with my lunch, with my dinner; I even eat them raw for a quick snack. Green Line Green Beans are where it’s at and you’re going to be seeing a lot more of them on here, so stay tuned for that.
Well I’m off to enjoy my Sunday. I’m thinking I’m going to work a little, write a little, run my errands and get organized for the week. There’s a Say Yes to the Dress marathon on (another obsession) and it’s an episode at Kleinfelds! I’m not sure about the ATL season yet – I miss Randy!
Thanks to this show I’m pretty sure I know exactly what I want my wedding dress to look like….now I just need to find the guy…
I’m back to work this week after almost 2 weeks of vacation/working from home and…it feels good to be back on track, back into my routine. What can I say? I’m a routine kinda gal. Alarms, schedules, gym, work, gym, FOOD. How AM I still single?!
Last night was my 1st night in bootcamp in almost 2 weeks and wow, it was intense! Let’s see if I can remember what we did-
Kettle Bell Deadlifts
Jump Squats
Jump Lunges w/ 1 foot on Bosu ball
Plank- alternating hands and feet
Push-ups on Bosu ball
Sprint on SPIN Bike
Barbell Shoulder Press
Pull Ups
Oy! All done in 30 second, fast as you can go intervals – the class is 1 hour long with 10 minutes of meditation at the end. I love that most of this stuff can be done at home, outside of a gym or even in a gym on your own time – I’ve definitely taken away some great ideas for the days I need to spice it up.
At work, I donned one of my new fave tops that I purchased with my Xmas giftcard from Nordstrom
thanks Dad!
And tonight after working on Chest & Shoulders in the am, I did 30 minute HIIT sprints on the treadmill followed by a 20 minute jog.
I’m now sitting here patiently waiting to hear how The BFFs date is going. Ahhhh so exciting! I’ll keep you updated…if she lets me!
While many were at work, I was enjoying yet another day off – the last day of my holiday staycation.
1st thing I did…
SKIPPED the gym!
If you know me at all then you may think that sounds pretty crazy. Me, miss the gym? You see, I suffer from what my friends call Can’tMisstheGymItis; however, I’m learning to nurture my body and as much as I wanted to get a good workout in, I was in dire need of some time off – my body was screaming for it, so I obliged.
It was a lovely, relaxing day followed by a beautiful sunset that I stopped to watch by myself…
