“And so you should buy a huge tub of it at Costco as to never run out.” Noted again. 
“Chocolate should be enjoyed every day.”

“Almond Butter makes everything better. Everything.” 
“Don’t care what other people think.”
(I had a coupon for a free McBistro sandwich with the purchase of a drink. I figured, I get a Diet Coke, Ben gets a free grilled chicken sandwich. But, carrying the bag back into my apartment I passed by a neighbor and wanted to explain to them that I don’t really eat McD’s.
Who cares if I eat McDonald’s? I shouldn’t give an eff what other people think about my food choices. Wasn’t I just talking about “owning it” the other day? )
“ You can make anything cooler, even tattoos, by adding a pedometer.”
(Okay, maybe it’s the opposite, whatever. )

My new motivational quote I recently heard from Caitlin,
“Someday you will not be able to do this. Today is not that day.”

You sure do know what you’re speaking about. Man, this blog is just superb! I can’t wait to read much more of what you have got to state. I am really joyful that I came upon this when I do simply because I was really starting to get bored with the whole blogging and site-building scene. Youve turned me around man!
Pretty section of content. I just stumbled upon your blog and in accession capital to assert that I get in fact enjoyed account your blog posts. Anyway I’ll be subscribing to your feeds and even I achievement you access consistently fast.
I’m pleased, I must say. Really scarcely can i encounter a blog that’s both educative and amusing, and let me tell you, you may have hit the nail on the head. Your idea is certainly excellent; the problem is whatever not enough people are speaking smartly about. Now i’m very happy that stumbled across it in my search for something about it.
Excellent article with very interesting information. You really should follow up to the topic!?!
That was a engaging view on this subject
A man walked into a bar, leading an alligator by a leash. He asked the bartender, “Do you serve lawyers here?”
Your family and your friends will appreciate the fact that you have decided to entertain and the more that you entertain the easier that it will get.
Can somebody help me with my crappy iphone i bought at http://handywiese.de? this crappy phone disconnect every time and i cant telephone!
I was wondering are you guys like this as well ?
“What’s the matter?” he asked. “Are you giving up?”
i dont know how i discovered your weblog because i was searching details about politics, but anyway, i had a pleasant time studying it, maintain write it
Such a cute post!! Loved it. I feel the same way when I have a McDonald’s bag. Such guilt!
This post was awesome 🙂 I especially agree with (sigh.. I do NOT follow this, but I need to…) “Just because it’s on sale doesn’t mean you have to buy it” I’ve always liked the Bingham quote, “The miracle is not that I finished, but that I had the courage to start.” I find it is applicable to many areas in my life.
Quote I love: “I am too old to be inconvenienced!” Makes me laugh, but sometimes I feel that (as I get older), it is very true!
beautiful post and beautiful quote, i am stealing it 🙂
Just wanted to say you have a great site and thanks for posting!
Wow i love this post!! They are all so true 🙂
Yes, Chocolate and Almond Butter do make everything better and should be consumed multiple times a day. Wise girl, very wise! 🙂
I am obsessed with those Target Archer Farms mixes- the Chocolate Monkey Mix is my fav! They are DEFINITELY dangerous!
~Christie
amen. and i love that quote at the end of your post too. i tell myself that when i feel overwhelmed with life
amen on the chocolate! what is that scrumptious piece with what looks like mini pretzels buried underneath?? yummm….
best quote – this too shall pass
You make me happy, so does your blog! 🙂 I appreciate the McDonalds thing even though you didn’t eat it. I feel like if I go to Chick-Fil-A I can’t order the waffle fries or I feel like it’s sort of “bad” of me..most times I get a salad with my sandwich but if I want a waffle fry, I will eat a damn waffle fry. Although I do cringe when I put it on the blog sometimes. It’s a bad habit.
Monica, I love you. And this entry.
Best words to live by:
Do not look back in anger, nor forward in fear, but around in awareness.
Nothing is worth more than this day.
I eat croutons like crackers too. Especially the cheesy garlic ones! 😉
Love this post! Yes, I eat croutons like they are crack…I mean crackers. One of my favorite quotes is:
“The challenge is to be yourself in a world that is trying to make you like everyone else.”
So that trail mix was disappointing? Or just deadly addicting? haha. I’m tempted by it everytime I’m in Target! Favorite quotes include:
“Most wasted of days is one without laughter”
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do rather than the ones you did do”
and
“There is no better time than right now to be happy. Happiness is a journey, not a destination”
