Splendid Swap Party

 Good Morning!!

I have missed y’all!  This past weekend I chaperoned a middle-school camp at Waukaway Springs with my church and it was the bomb.com.  I don’t have a lot of pictures, mainly because I didn’t want to put a bunch of middle schoolers on the blog without their parents consent and because I was wrapped up in all the fun!  We were team YELLOW (#yellowswag) and we pretty much killed it with competitions!  Your team could get points for a team member who did something good (i.e. clean-up after lunch when everyone else had left, be kind to someone, etc.)  and then we had competitions throughout the weekend where we got points, plus we had chants and cheers that got points for how good they were.  Basically, our team rocked it!  I had a blast hanging out with a bunch of middle-schoolers and my small group was the best!  It was quite an adventure for this “non-woodsy” girl though!

I made my sweet girls little goody bags with some candy, a note w/ my contact information, and a #1 sticker to get the in the spirit with our YELLOW team.

I arrived back Sunday night and was completely exhausted, but Nick was in town, so I mustered up some energy to spend time with him.  We had pizza with some friends, then went to TJ Maxx and Target.  I was in bed by 9am and slept super well!  Yesterday was a catch up day – so I did laundry, went to work, studied for my Series 6 exam, and went to the gym. 

I finally received my Splendid Swap Party gift from Jess!  She e-mailed me to let me know that the Post Office delayed her shipment, so I finally got it yesterday and it was absolute PERFECTION!  I strongly encourage y’all to read Jess’ About Me page because she has been through some serious stuff and is SO STRONG!  I admire her so much!  Also, she lives right down the road from Disneyland… so there’s that nugget of information!

Here’s what Jess got me:

  • Sally Hansen Xtreme Nail Polish
  • Disneyland Post Card
  • H Disney Pin
  • Disney Coffee Mug
  • Limoncello candle

I could not have been paired up with a more perfect person!  She is the best!

Last night I attempted the 10 to 6 WORKOUT again and yet again… I only got through set 10 and 9.  This sucker can be rough.  Maybe I’m just lazy, I don’t know!  My goal is to get to a point where I can complete the entire 10 to 6!  It works every muscle and I love it.

After my workout I got sucked into the first episode of Big Brother this season!  It’s going to be good and I really like the players this season!

This morning for BREAKFAST I went for a bowl of Kashi Go-Lean cereal w/ blueberries & a Kashi Dark Chocolate Oatmeal Cookie.

Now I’m off to work and I’m excited to do another HIIT class tonight!  That class makes me perfectly sore, it’s almost addicting!

  • Do you watch Big Brother?  Whose your favorite player?  (Remember I’ve only seen Episode 1 at this point!)
  • What’s your favorite workout class?

Fun with Food Camp

 

Good Afternoon!

I’m at Starbucks writing up my post for today.  I made the drive up to Starkville last night and seriously… this is the easiest Free-standing Starbucks.  The one back home is inside the Target.  I love coming to this Starbucks to get work done – which is exactly what I’m doing today.  I have my Blog, Inc. book with me and I’m working to fix my Comment issue along with my networked blogs issue because I noticed that my posts are not linking with Facebook & Twitter like they should.

Work has been monotonous lately because we’re going to a new e-filing system and so I’m converting all of our paper files to e-files which is extremely boring.  I usually don’t take lunch breaks unless I’m meeting with a friend, but Friday was draaaggggiiiinnnnggggg….. SO I decided to actually take a lunch break and enjoy that hour of freedom.  I headed to Whole Foods because ya know what?  There is always beauty there!  It can be the flowers or the fresh produce, but I absolutely love lingering.  I chose my usual Kevita Organic Pomegranate (<– You can purchase A CASE of it on Amazon, y’all!!) drink because it’s something that lifts my mood!

It was a refreshing break and then I headed back to finish my work before leaving for Starkville.  Last nights dinner was cheap – Mexican, which is my fave.  I didn’t have the greatest experience though.  I ordered my usual rice w/ sauteed veggies & a small cheese dip.  I found a piece of chicken and a piece of steak in my veggies though – so that was upsetting, but I finished off the rice and pushed all the veggies to the side.  That was disappointing and I won’t be eating there again.

We also watched “Walk of Shame” last night with Elizabeth Banks and it was hilarious, but cheesy.  One of those movies that would never actually happen in real life, but it was entertaining to watch.  Also, I adore Elizabeth Banks.

This morning, I woke up for a good run… except I woke up late and it wasn’t the greatest.  It was WAY TOO HOT!  I walked most of the way and also got a minor sunburn.  I did pass this sign though and had a TON of questions….

  1. Where was this camp when I was a kid? – Because I would have been there!
  2. What exactly does it entail?  – Is it a culinary camp?  Is it playing with your food camp?  Do make little men out of candy and then eat it?  I mean…. I HAVE NO IDEA!!!
  3. How old do you have to be?
  4. Is this why Mississippi has a high obesity rate?
  5. Is this like Fat Camp, but where being Fat is acceptable?

Seriously… I’m so curious!

I also really love running on Mississippi State’s campus because it’s just so pretty!  I could have used a little more shade though.  Don’t be fooled, that was practically the only shade I saw the entire run.

Now I’m off to figure out my gazillion WordPress questions!  Hope y’all have a wonderful Saturday.

  • What do you think Fun With Food camp is?
  • Have you seen Walk of Shame?  
  • What activity refreshes you in the middle of a monotonous boring work day?
