Hello!!! How are you? Good luck to everyone running the Chicago Marathon and Long Beach Marathon today!!! I can’t wait to see the results and read the race reviews! I’ve always wanted to run Chicago too!
Unfortunately, I had to bail out of the Long Beach Marathon because today is MOVING DAY!!! Not for me but for my brother, SIL and favorite tiny person. I love her.
Truthfully I’m kinda hoping in the move they get confused and I ‘accidentally’ take her home with me.
My parents had to stop by and get my old mattress since I got that new Leesa one (last call on the discount – check it out!!). So, I had to clean so they didn’t think I live in squalor. Vegas investigated my trash pile he kinda blends in with it so I might have threw him away. That, or he’s sleeping in the closet. Who knows.

Since I found out I wasn’t going to be able to run the race I made sure to get in some good miles this morning. Except – it is soooooo HOT here. October who?
Anyone hiring a graphic designer? I think I have a future in it…
Between the temperatures and the fact that I stayed out way too late I was feeling less than spectacular out there. That’s what I get. Busted Monican.
Pre-run I loaded up with good hydration, O2 Gold, Spark and iced coffee.
Post run I stopped in Costco really quick for eggs and watermelon.
Then, I faced a huge moral dilemma in the form of these Pumpkin Almonds. These aren’t like my Pumpkin Spiced Almonds these are covered in white chocolate.
I probably stood there for 10 minutes contemplating the meaning of life, how many of these I would eat in one day, putting them in a bowl and eating them like cereal, if I should just give up and OD on candy…
If you don’t hear from me again assume I just poured the bag directly into my mouth and choked. Just know it’s how I would have wanted to go.
In other news… I am LOVING this dark nail polish I have. It’s called Visions of Love and is darker than what I normally get but I think this is my new thing. And I got some questions on the gloss, it’s Cate McNabb Belle Red.
Off to move with the family! See ya later

I can vouch for the almonds. They are the best. You WILL eat the whole bag in 2 days though, it’s science. Also, amen on the heat. It is not right!
Reese says
Cute cat!
We’ve lived in our house for 3 years, we lived in 2 other places before buying a house. I’ve moved 8 times in the last 9 years, ugh.
Daisy @ Fit Wanderlust Runner says
I just moved this year from Fresno to San Diego and I never want to move again! Man that was an ordeal! Gives me nightmares just thinking about it.
Susan says
We haven’t moved in 14 years; since we built our house. But at my current job – where I’ve only been for 8 months – I’ve moved 5 times! It’s been really annoying. I’ve actually taken some stuff home…I hope to find a new job closer to where I live anyway. I hope THAT move is on the near horizon for me!
Candice says
Haha. I stared at those almonds forever last week at the store! I ended up putting them back but now you’ve got me thinking about them again! lol. And yes SO over this heat!
Tracey says
We moved into our house 21 years ago. My husband said we will never move again. I dread the day…21 years of accumulated stuff. Uggh.
Nice nail polish. I really need to get my nails done. Pumpkin Pie Almonds!?!? Seriously? I may have to go to Costco JUST for those. Yumm!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
Damn! I will gladly come and take that heat for you!
Meghan @ getoffyourbuttandrun says
The last time we moved was 2 years ago and we are putting off another move as long as possible. It’s too much work!
Sally @ sweat out the small stuff says
15 years ago I bought my home. Been here ever since. Moving is so stressful. But I’m guessing another year or two and I will be moving
Mary says
WHY IS IT SO HOT. I am up in South Pasadena and DYING. I am so over the heat, i don’t want to run in it! It makes me wish I had a gym membership so I could go run on a treadmill.
I last moved….. in December/January of last year. so Dec 2014/January 2015. Before that was September 2013. Before that was September 2012. Before that was June 2012.
I move a lot. haahah
