HLS and Fake Running

June 11, 2011 | Uncategorized

 

Happy Weekend! I hope you have plans to do something fun (and active!) this weekend. Today, Bobby and I are meeting with our TNT group and coach for a kick off party. If you have not checked out our fundraising page, you can see it HERE. Every little bit helps, even just $5.00. Please consider donating to this great cause!

A couple of fun things I wanted to mention that I am super excited about (as if ENOUGH exciting things aren’t going on!) is that I am going to the HEALTHY LIVING SUMMIT! That’s right, after watching all the fun everyone had last year and pouting and wallowing in self pity, I got a ticket for this year’s event in Philly. Yay!

Are you going to HLS? I hope so! I can’t wait to meet everyone! This means YOU!

Next thing, apparently while we were on vacation, a picture of Bobby and I popped up on the front page of Real Estate Weekly…Running! Sad to say, it’s not real. Well, ok now I am confusing myself. In the picture we are REALLY running, but it’s staged….for a photoshoot…for our neighborhood. But still pretty cool!

 

sorry the quality isn’t great, but it’s on newsprint.

Holy heel-striker!!! Granted, we were running downhill and I tend to do that….so hhmmm…just ignore please. But, still pretty cool, right? We are supposed to be on the new neighborhood website, too, which I THOUGHT was going live in May, but it’s not up yet. Will share with you when it does.

I know I said I would alternate between sharing things about the Disney trip and California trip, but let’s face it, not as many people read on a Saturday, so I thought I would save the good stuff Not that this isn’t good stuff, but…ok now I’m rambling. (I had sweet tea at dinner, can you tell?!?)

I am just so excited about HLS, and Running Skirts, and Disney, I just can’t stop thinking about it all and smiling about how blessed I feel right now!

QOTD: Are you going to HLS?

    How fun! You guys look awesome even though you’re fake running?

    What’s this HLS you speak of? Maybe I’ll try to go 😉

    You guys look great! I wouldn’t have even noticed the heel striking if you didn’t point it out.

    That’s cute that you and your man run together. I am just about to head out on my first long run with my man- hopefully it will be picture perfect too!

    I would love to go to HLS but alas, no money for the trip and no sitter for the kids!! Hope you enjoy it though.

    Thought about going to HLS and applied to speak, but I didn’t get accepted. They offered me early registration as consolation, but I didn’t jump on it and missed out because I was at Disney on registration day. It’s very cool that it sold out so fast, though. I’ll just live vicariously through you ;).

      ah bummer! Same thing happened to me 🙂
      If you really want to go, check out the FB page, there are usually people selling tickets!

2016 was a VERY big year for us. Moving states. Running multiple businesses. Being accused of getting a divorce. 🤣🫣 People are wild, yall. 

Looking back they were some hard, wild times and I now know more hard times were ahead for us, but I wouldn’t change any of it. I know it’s part of our story, God had a plan, and there is a reason for it all. Just gotta keep keeping on! ❤️

Allow me to de-influence you. 💁🏻‍♀️ Sometimes we Allow me to de-influence you. 💁🏻‍♀️

Sometimes we (myself included) all need a little reminder that this app shows short snippets of the entirety of someone’s day and life. No one wants to post the boring, the ugly, the sad, but it’s there. 

Be careful not to compare your life with the people you see online. A lot of the things you see are inaccurate or a stretch of the truth, or just the best of the best. That’s not reality and I want to make sure no one thinks that I am ever trying to portray some perfect life that doesn’t exist. I’m a hot mess 99% of the time, and that’s ok! 😜

I sometimes am still waiting on an adult to walk into the room to tell me what to do….and then I remember I AM the adult. 🤣

When we get down to it, we are all very similar. I love you guys.

From laying out my workout clothes to packing my daughter’s basketball bag… and yes, remembering my vitamins — staying proactive just makes life run smoother.

But I realized it shouldn’t just stop with me. My dogs are part of the family too. 💛 So when I’m grabbing our wellness essentials at select Walmart stores, I make sure to pick up our NaturVet pet supplements right from the Pet Health aisle.

At home, it’s simple: I get my vitamins and supplements, and they get theirs. Staying a step ahead means taking care of all of us — two-legged and four-legged. 🐶✨
