friday favorites: wish list of a thirty-something

Happy Friday, Friends! In some ways I find it hard to believe it's the last day of November, and in other ways I feel like it should already be the middle of December. Is the timing of Thanksgiving throwing anyone else off kilter? I surely hope I'm not the only one.

Well, I managed to craft an update this past weekend and shared our life lately chaos on Monday. Be sure to stop over and see what we've been up to. Since the week has been a pretty quiet one, instead of the normal favorites, I'm going to share what I've been crushing on lately. I hope to find one of these lovelies underneath my Christmas tree. Bonus, these will serve as great gifts for the ladies in your life if you're still in need of ideas.

long time no post

Hey Friends! I know it’s been forever since my last post and even longer since I’ve posted consistently, but I’m hoping to change that today. If you’ve been reading this blog for long, you know I have a tendency to take small sabbaticals. Life happens and to put it simply, sometimes I just can’t keep up with it all. So, let’s see if I can recap the last few weeks and then continue to post regularly going forward. Should we take bets on how well I’ll do?? Probably not... 

November is my birthday month. We celebrated another year at a local restaurant and I splurged on my favorite dessert. 

how i lost weight: three month update

Well Friends, I disappeared from the blogosphere... again. Life happened and sleep prevailed. I’ve been wanting to share a three month update for several days now. I’m currently having my highlights touched up and figure this is as good a time as any. 

This past Monday marked three months since I embarked on my weight loss journey. I am stoked to share that I have lost almost 22 lbs. I have dropped two sizes in pants and one to two sizes in shirts depending on the make and style. I have successfully completed two 5Ks and am working weekly to reduce my time - I’m slow as molasses.
