Starting Off Right

March 3, 2011 | Uncategorized

 

Hola! Did you see yesterday’s post about my plans for the month of March? I would say I started off right and had a good day yesterday! My mom and I went to Target, where thanks to Kelly and her couponing advice, I will be shopping a lot more often! We then went to Lee’s Hamburgers. YUM! if you are from the NOLA area, you know what I am talking about. if you aren’t….then sorry you are missing out! Lee’s makes the best hamburgers ever and they have been around forever (like, since my parents were little, now that’s a LONG time! )

It was so beautiful out we ate outside!

A burger, fries, and root beer later…you would think I would be too full for froyo. But, you would be wrong! We thought it was comical since Menchies is in the same shopping center, all we did was move down the building and eat outside there, too!

This my friends is NY style cheesecake with cherries, strawberries, and almonds! Heavenly goodness in a cup.

I seriously have terrible posture. I need to learn to sit up straight.

After the gloriousness of feeling so full I had to change my pants, I had the bright idea to go on a run. I WANTED to run, but my rock hard full of food stomach thought otherwise….but I did it anyway. it was so beautiful outside, the prettiness of the day was just calling out to me! I decided to run a quick three and see what kind of speed I had. I did great mile one, right at 9:00. Mile two is when my stomach started rebelling against the motion and I got a super sick feeling but still managed to run it in under 10:00. The third mile I was able to pick up the pace a bit. I even tried to throw up but couldn’t, I knew I would have felt better. oh well. Anyway, I managed to finish in 28:00! For someone on the verge of vomit, I was incredibly proud of myself!

After my run, I went inside to discover my dad was home, so my mom and I made him walk with us. they even jogged a little! We ended up doing 1.35 miles total. We ate dinner, watched American Idol (well, mom and I did!) and I went to bed! I would call that  successful March day in more ways that one. Go me! Hopefully today will be a success as well, because tomorrow all the fun begins!

Bobby got the keys to the new house yesterday FINALLY, so tomorrow I meet him there and unload my car, then we will take one car up to our old house and the movers come Saturday morning! it will be a wild weekend for sure! I will take plenty of pictures for you though. I can’t wait to unpack in my new home!  I am off to enjoy the day, have a great one!

QOTD: What are you doing this weekend?

    Great job on the run! Isn’t it funny how sometimes when you feel the worst, you run the fastest? My fastest run this year came an hour after eating a huge lunch and cupcake. I almost didn’t run bc I was so sick to my stomach!

    Yay for house keys! Excited for you!

    Not sure what we’re doing. Pretty sure it involves trying a new BBQ place though. Good job not puking. 😉

    I did the Disney Princess 1/2 this weekend! You need to do this race if you haven’t. If you loved the Disney one in January you will love this one….plus wearing a tutu & a crown makes running more fun 🙂

    • Heather says

      March 3, 2011 at 8:08 pm

      oh I am so wearing a tutu and a tiara. I can’t wait!

    This weekend I am running my final 20 miler of marathon training. It feels like my whole weekend revolves around the run, but it’s a 20 mile race with awesome friends, so I’m excited!

    I’m so bad at running after I eat! I usually have to eat at least 2 hours before I run. Way to stick with it!

Disney cruises are the perfect multigenerational vacation because there is truly something for everyone. From kids clubs to adults only dining and entertainment, everyone can do their own thing and then meet back up together for a fun day ashore, in the dining room, or poolside. The options are limitless, and the memories are, too. ❤️

I wanted something simple, personalized, and actually doable, not a 47-step routine I’d abandon in two days. That’s why I started using Mochi Health for skincare + wellness support, and it’s been one small thing that makes me feel more put together (even when I’m not).

If you’ve been wanting to get your skin and wellness together without overthinking it, I shared more in the reel. Link in bio for $40 off your first month.

San Diego snaps. 📸 Did you know Disney makes it San Diego snaps. 📸 

Did you know Disney makes it SO easy to fly into San Diego for a @disneycruiseline vaca? 🚢 (ad)

Let’s break it down :
1.) Flew into the San Diego airport
2.) Took a Lyft to @grandhyattsandiego which is super close by
3.) Walked right downstairs for dinner @seaport_village 
4.) The next morning you walk downstairs to a special table in the lobby to check in with DCL, show your passport, be extra luggage tags etc.
5.) Leave your luggage at the door of your hotel room. They will collect it and put it on the bus for you. 
6.) Meet downstairs at your designated time and board the bus
7.) Super short 5 min ride to the port on the Disney bus
8.) They handle your luggage, you just get on the ship! 🚢 

It was so nice having everyone nearby and coordinated for us! I highly recommend arriving a day before your cruise anyway if you are flying, and Disney made it seamless. 
Note that right now, the Grand Hyatt is the only San Diego area hotel that has the service of the Disney bus transportation to the port. 

Know what’s even more seamless? Having an agent from @bestdayevervacay plan all of this for you at no additional cost! Click the link in my bio and you can get a free, no obligation quote and start planning your magical vacation! 

Or, comment the word “cruise” below and I will send you the direct 🔗

We just set sail on the Disney Wonder for a magical 3 night west coast sailing! But the fun won’t stop when we disembark, we will be continuing the trip to Disneyland so don’t go anywhere! All the fun is happening right now in my stories! (And saved to a highlight if you miss some!)

A huge thanks to Disney and @bestdayevervacay for making this possible and sending us on this trip! ✨

Behind every beach day, every poolside moment, eve Behind every beach day, every poolside moment, every bit of Disney magic, photoshoot, late night, and smiling photo, there are hours of work, rejection emails, a few missteps, and a lot of learning. 

Grateful for every single step of the journey, even the hard ones. ✨
