Coming Up

February 14, 2012 | family, fitness, running, Running Skirts, Uncategorized

 

Morning friends! Happy Valentine’s Day! Bobby bought me a piece of furniture that goes with our bedroom set for Valentine’s day. It’s a media chest and it’s so pretty! I will have to take pictures and show you.

I decided to wait and work on my Rouge Orleans recap until I have amazing photos from the lovely Erin, who happened to be on my team and who happens to be a photographer! Trust meโ€ฆher photos are way better than mine and you will like the recap much better, so it will be worth the wait!

In the mean time, you can check out this recap video that Claim Your Journey put together. You can see my shoes (haha) at the 1:53 ish mark, and my team crossing the finish at at 4:30 mark! It gives you a small taste of the race.

——————————————–

There are a LOT of things going down in my life in the next few weeks, so that means there will be a lot going on here on RWS! I am home recuperating the rest of this week (even after 10.5 hours of sleep Sunday night I felt spacey and groggy all day yesterday). This weekend we are headed to my parents house for the weekend forโ€ฆ.a Mardi Gras parade! I am excited to share a bit of my growing up/NOLA area southern culture with you all. Even though I was living with my parents in LA last year at this time, we didnโ€™t end up making it to a parade because Mardi Gras was late and we were moving and it just didnโ€™t work out. But this year, we are going to a parade right outside my parents neighborhood and I will take lots of pictures for you all. King cake MAY be involved.

Who ate all the king cake?!

We are also going to see some family on Sunday so it will be a jam packed weekend.

The next weekend, is the Disney Princess! We are leaving on that Friday morning EALRY and heading to Florida for 4 nights. It will be my mom, me, Karen, and her mom. I am so excited to run this race. I just had my tutu made, and I canโ€™t wait to show yโ€™all my outfit.

Bloggers, donโ€™t forget, meet up on SATURDAY afternoon, details HERE.

We get back from Disney on Tuesday night, and on Wednesday I turn around and go to my parents house and then Thursday Iโ€™m heading to NOLA to work the Running Skirts booth for RnR New Orleans (and Bobby and I are running the half.) I will finally go home on Sunday afternoon. WHEW!

So thatโ€™s last weekend gone, then the next three. At least itโ€™s all for totally fun and exciting things and I canโ€™t wait to recap them all for you.

QOTD: Do you have anything exciting going on the next few weeks? Share!

    You have tons of exciting stuff coming up, I’m so jealous of the Disney run and meet up too, I bet that will be tons of fun to run around the parks and meet other bloggers :). Can’t wait to read about the relay, too, but I don’t blame you to wait on the recap.

    Happy Mardi Gras!

This past summer, we learned how real dog anxiety This past summer, we learned how real dog anxiety can be. (Ad)

After a really stressful week with a new sitter (who wasnโ€™t a great fit and left her alone far too long), Dolly started coping the only way she knew how โ€” nonstop licking. What started as โ€œnormal anxious behaviorโ€ turned into a raw wound that required a vet visit, meds, and constant care.

We changed a few things in her routine, and we also added NaturVet Daily Emotional Support Calming Supplements into her daily support. The difference has been incredible. Sheโ€™s settled, sleeping better, no more licking, and truly back to her happy, goofy self.

Iโ€™m sharing this for anyone whose dog struggles with stress, separation, or big changes. Youโ€™re not overreacting. Their anxiety is real โ€” and it deserves real support. ๐Ÿค

You can find @naturvet Daily Emotional Support Calming Supplements  at select Walmart stores, and theyโ€™ve been such a gentle, helpful part of Dollyโ€™s healing.

I was so tired of dragging around heavy, clunky ba I was so tired of dragging around heavy, clunky bags on my trips! โœˆ๏ธ

So I invested in the Carry-On from @hulkenbag! Itโ€™s lightweight, sleek, and glides effortlessly wherever I go. It has 4 pockets and opens from the top, so itโ€™s very easy to grab things in flight! Iโ€™ve got room for everything I need and can fit all my devices, snacks, books, and a neck pillow seamlessly inside.

I always pair my Carry-On with the Schlep Stack because who has time to dig through a messy bag? ๐Ÿ‘œโœจ

Trust me, Hulken is a total game-changer!

The beaches of Alabama are the kind of place where the days feel slow, the kids are happy, and you donโ€™t feel like you need a vacation after your vacation.

Alabama beaches in the spring just make sense.
