Easely Amused and Saturday Group Run

Good Morning friends!  Hope you’re enjoying this beautiful Saturday morning.  It’s not typical for bloggers to post on Saturdays I think.. at least that’s what I’ve picked up on over my years of blogging.  I think some do occasionally and others may post every Saturday, but for the most part bloggers “take the day off” or they schedule out all of their posts for the next week.  For some reason, I love a good Saturday morning blog post!  Since I’m awful at re-capping my weekends on Mondays, I’m going to go ahead and re-cap today because I’ve already finished up my weekend plans.  The rest of the weekend will be spent with my eyes on the computer screen watching videos for my Series 6 Exam that is scheduled for Thursday night at 6:30pm!  {Prayers are greatly appreciated!}  Also, I’ll be doing my best to stay around throughout the week, but if I end up missing the entire week (except for Bliss on Wednesday, of course) then just forgive me and expect me back up and running after the test!

EASELY AMUSED

Last night I joined some co-workers for a wine & painting night.  We have a local place called Easely Amused and they offer classes that you can purchase tickets for.  We decided to purchase the wine night tickets and have some girl bonding time!  Someone brought the sangria and the cups and then Easely Amused provided the canvas and paint and supplies.

That’s the progression of my painting!  I chose the saying, “Nothing’s better than a glass of wine… except maybe two!”  I had such a fun evening with the girls from work and I really enjoyed laughing and getting to know them on a different level.  We decided that a girls night/get together should happen quarterly.  Can’t wait to see what our next evening brings.  I got home around 10pm, so I’d call that successful night!

HEALTH STARTS HERE GROUP RUN

I woke up this morning with so much excitement!  Ever since I started the 28 day Health Starts Here Challenge, I’ve been looking forward to this group run with our local running store, Stinky Feet!  I got dressed and headed out the door.  Our group of challengers has gotten smaller and smaller each week, but I’m glad we still had some participation for this group run.   We met at Parham Bridges and did 2 laps which was close to 2 miles.  I made some new friends and kept a pace that I really enjoyed throughout the entire run.  The weather was perfect and Whole Foods brought some snacks for us afterwards – Lara Bars, Coconut Water, Bananas, and water.

I had such a fun time getting to know the people at Stinky Feet & enjoying the beautiful Mississippi weather we are having today.  I also got my workout in for the day so I can focus on studying for my test now!  Wish me luck, I’m off to study, study, study and hopefully find a few breaks here and there so I don’t overdo it!

Hope y’all have a beautiful Saturday with your families & friends!
