We are working with a limited budget and time frame for the wedding. The photographer is one of the more expensive costs for a wedding and I want great pictures, but I don’t want to spend half of my budget on it! Money Saving Tip: Place a local ad or ad on a website for a newer photographer or for…

Melting 2x
It was raining AGAIN this morning when I woke up, but I was determined to not let that stop me. Actually by the time I went out to run it stopped and didn’t start up again until I was less than a half mile from home 🙂 I think people around my neighborhood think I’m crazy for running in the…

Candy is gone, but no pics to prove it.
It was pouring this morning, so I didn’t run and went to the gym instead. I really don’t like the gym so, you know it had to be raining pretty hard to get me there as a last resort. Then, on the way there I saw a guy running and I was sad 🙁 He’s way more hardcore than me!…

So, we went back home thinking the trip was cancelled until I…

New running Gear and Contests
My running shirts are disgusting. Seriously, how can I put this without grossing you out? I can’t. For some reason the armpit area of my workout clothes always turn yellow. Apparently I have acid sweat. It’s embarrassing. Also, sometimes in the summer I will Mystic Tan (in the spray booth) and I sweat it out on my runs. This leaves…

I picked up this book on Sunday from a local yoga studio that I’ve been going to. I have heard a little bit about Ayurveda in the blog world and am curious to learn more. I found out my dosha type is Kapha. The book has a lot of great info and a big list of foods you are “Okay”…

It started out so well…
I started out my day with a very healthy and happy run and breakfast : Lunch was super good too. I discovered this lunch yesterday after a disappointing Lean Cuisine pizza lunch on Monday. I had a turkey sammie, apple, carrots and a Kashi bar. After this meal I am super satisfied. I calculated it out and it is just…
