Soaking wet Saturday! As we prepare for tropical storm Lee down here on the coast, I thought I would entertain you with a review of August. Who knows if we will lose power, internet, etc? At least this isn’t my first rodeo. Don’t worry, we are going to be careful!
Ok, so August. Well, it was hot. No big surprises there. I kicked off August beating the heat by going to Rhode Island to work the Rock N Roll Providence expo booth and run the race! I had a blast working the booth but running 13.1 miles in the pouring rain was a less than stellar experience!
After being stranded at the airport, I got to have a sleepover at Jen’s house!
We celebrated Sassy’s tenth birthday in August as well! She obviously could have cared less. I can’t believe my first born is ten!
Them , I fond myself back up in the northeast for the Healthy Living Summit! I had an action packed weekend with a ton of amazing bloggers, and came home quite exhausted from all of the fun! Can’t wait till next year!
In between my traveling, I did a lot of catching up with my jobs, it has been a busy month on both fronts! I also got to see my family a couple times, go to the movies with my mom, run with my team in training group, and hang with the hubby.
I must say, September is going to be EVEN MORE exciting! Vacation, working expos, COOLER WEATHER, I am stoked about fall. It is my second favorite because it leads into Christmas which is obviously my favorite. I am already planning how to decorate the new house. Is that bad? I hope your August was great! Look back on it and try to count your blessings. Think of at least one thing you are thankful for that happened in August! Don’t focus just on the negative parts of your circumstances, it won’t change anything! (I say as I look in the mirror….ha! more on that later.)
QOTD: What is something you did or that happened in August that you are thankful for?
Ros @ Life's A Wheeze says
Best part: I’m finally registered for the WDW half marathon and a warrior dash! woohoo! and speaking of expos, do you know if running skirts will be at the Route 66 Marathon expo in Tulsa?
Amanda @ Running On Waffles says

Heather says

Kimberly says
2 little Yorkie pups joined my family and I had my best running month ever! Life is grand!!
Karolina says
August was an absolutely perfect month! I got to spend it with so many people I love and care about deeply who i hadn’t seen in awhile. I’m actually pretty sad the month is over. I hope you’re staying safe in the storm. I saw some shots on the news from Mississippi this evening.
Heather says
Aw that sounds great! We are still getting poundedd down here!
Trish says
Sept sounds busy for you…where are you headed for your Expos?
Any chance you might be there for the WDW Wine & Dine? Would love to finally meet you! 🙂
Heather says
