Happy Tuesday!!!! This Tuesday as we are unwinding still from Thanksgiving, Black Friday, Small Business Saturday and Cyber Monday, we are gearing up for our Christmas Shopping. Santa should be checking his list at least twice by now, as our lists of gifts are piling. I know I have quite a long one compling already and today we are going to help a bit with those in your life who is a runner. Being a runner myself, this list might just be my wish list also lol. So here are some of my favorite runner themed gifts. 10. A FitBit, Garmin, Polar or Apple Watch. I own a FitBit and a Garmin, I use my FB primarily and seriously I got one last year and it was life changing. I love LOVE it. It keeps me accountable but also tracks my miles and calories for all my activity, you can link your running app to it also and it will transfer to the app and keep track. I love anything that keeps you motivated and the Apple Running Watch, does just that also. It even asks you if we are running today...

Happy Thanksgiving Week!! Holy Moly I can't believe that Thanksgiving is in two days!! Two days. I remember at work we were counting down since August and then it is finally here. So this Top Ten Tuesday Nanci and I are counting down our Top Ten What We Are Thankful For. Which wow narrowing down to Ten is hard, but here we go.... 10. My DM Jen . I am employed by Things Remembered but my District Manager is my Boss, Jen. Jen and I have been working together now for 7 years and I can not even begin to explain how thankful I am for her in my life. She has given me motivation, inspiration and guidance like no other. She is a mentor to me in the store and also in life. I am truly blessed to have her as a boss, and leader but mainly has a huge influence on my life. 9. I am thankful for TR . Yes I am thankful for my job. My job is something I never thought it would be. It is challenging and fun and yes this time of year, it sucks a whole lot because it is busy and ...

Good Tuesday Morning!!! I missed last weeks Top Ten Tuesday because life is crazy. So I am back on schedule with today's top ten and today we are talking about Thanksgiving. I love Thanksgiving. I love the tradition, the smells, the food, but I mainly love what Thanksgiving does for family and friends. Here is my Top Ten Things I love about Thanksgiving. 10. I love running the Turkey Trot. The Turkey Trot is probably one of my favorite races all year. There are 1000's of people, it is usually chilly and it is 3 miles of fun along a local neighborhood and a great way to kick off the day. 9. Turkey!! Seriously I love turkey and we eat it all day long on Thanksgiving. We usually go to James's grandmas for lunch because they start dinner around 12 and then I put a turkey in the crock pot and let it cook all day so we have left overs all weekend long. 8. Cranberries. I love cranberry sauce on a good piece of turkey and it tastes amazing on a sandwich afterwords t...

Good Friday Morning!! A couple of weeks ago I posted a post about myself. So I figured once in awhile to give you some fun facts about myself. 5. When I drink from any form of a can, I always take the tab of the can and move it over the mouth part. I have no clue when I started it or why but I do lol. 4. I still sleep with a teddy bear that I have had since I was younger. It is almost the size of me and when I am feeling sick I lash right on to it. 3. When I start a new show or series and I really like it, I become obsessed with it. I research the characters and the actors. I become so involved in the show inside and out. 2. I am an only child and always wanted to be an only child. I never wanted a brother and sister. I was never lonely or felt left out. 1. I don't wash my hair every day. I love when my hair is a little bit dirty. It makes it easy to straighten and style.

Good Morning! Happy Tuesday and more importantly Happy 1st Day of November. We literally have two months left of the year and then 2016 is in the past. Holy crap when did that happen!! November is the start of craziness for me but also there are a lot of fun and little things that go on in November too!!  So this Top Ten Tuesday, Nanci and I are talking about some of fun and exciting things we have going on this month to kick off today! 10. First up for me is James's Birthday. I love LOVE when loved ones have milestones or events going on and I am able to celebrate it with them. Not sure what we are doing just yet, but of course plan on spoiling him a bit. 9. I am a HUGE Bobby Bones Show fan and the Raging Idiots and Nanci and I are going to see them November 19th, I am soooo excited!! 8. Cooler weather coming through in FL starts this month, hopefully. This morning there was a slight chill in the air, maybe it will last maybe not, but so far so ...
