Today I’m smiling because:
~We had a great time up-north and everyone should be arriving home today! B is coming home after his race up there (he has a 5K mud run) and L will be headed home with my parents a bit later in the day. WB and I came home yesterday.
~WB was amazing in the car for me yesterday. He only slept for 45 minutes of the 3+ hour drive and spent the rest of the time sucking his thumb, eating snacks and looking out the window. I have hope that he is taking after his big brother and becoming an fabulous traveler!
~I think we are going to get July PopSugar spoilers today! I can’t wait to see what they are going to do this month! AND the FabFitFun summer VIP box has been spoiled over on MUT and it looks amazing (*)! Way way way better than last time and what’s better is that you can still sign up!
~I survived a holiday and being away from home and still didn’t fall off the Advocare 24-Day Challenge wagon! I am very pleased with myself for not eating all the yummy treats and desserts at the cottage! I know B had a few “goodies”, but I also know he has a crazy metabolism, so he likely will still have lost weight. That doesn’t make me smile though – it’s just unfair.
~I’ve been keeping up with C25K and think I have a 5K picked out! It’s a Color Run in Detroit and I know I will be able to get B to do it with me. My C25K will be done in a few weeks, but this “race” isn’t until September, so it will force me to keep up with the running.
~I’ve been making it to bed much earlier this past week and have been waking up much more refreshed. I don’t know if it’s the challenge or the fresh air from up-north or what, but I’m digging it!
That’s it from here! What’s got you smiling today?
This fabfitfun box looks so much better! And none of that jewelry. I hope it stays good so I can bite the bullet and try it!
Oh I can’t want for POP spoilers. 🙂 Both of my boys are pretty good car riders but we regularly do 2.5hrs to my moms so they got use to it pretty quick. Now with Ipads they just watch movies almost the whole way. LOL
Have you done/been to a Color Run yet? They are so much fun – just make sure you wear clothing you aren’t really in love with. The Color Run has left lasting memories on a couple things of mine! Good for you – kick that 5K’s butt! PS this will be my first POP Sugar box. I’m so excited!!
Good for you with sticking to the challenge! And yeah, men always seem to lose weight easier than women for some reason. Totally not fair!
The color run is a TON of fun. They do this whole color toss thing at the end and it is amazing. This is the best 5k to do after completing C25k. You might even consider bringing your oldest son with you. My friend and I brought her little girl and she had a blast throwing color and being a total mess.
Loved the Color Run I did. But my fanny pack and running shoes STILL have color on them…so be sure to wear anything you don’t mind having color on (the powder does come out, it just gets into nooks and crannies that need a good washing in the machine to get out).
