Shoes, Sorbet, Fireworks and Phones


Well this has been a weekend of indulgences and exspensives! But they have been good and awesome ones!

Yesterday after my run, James and I went and got haircuts..


As much as I love throwing my hair up in a messy curly bun, I love having short hair. I went shorter than normal and I know I will eventually go super short, once I thin out my face more.

Then we went to his grandmas for a quick BBQ


After we went downtown to Fit2Run and I picked out my birthday gift..


Brooks Ghost 7, different than what I had before but more stable and can withstand the mileage I am putting on. These will get me to September then I will buy another pair to cross the finish line in. I am so blessed to have a boyfriend who supports and loves me in this running. He is my back bone. Sure we have our fights and really bad days but there is no one else I want to spend my days with.

We then checked out this pop bar downtown that we heard about. They have sorbet or gelato and you can have them like a Popsicle. 



I got the coconut chip and it was heavenly. I could have had another and another! This is my new favorite place for sure. Next time I go back I will take more pictures to show.

We headed back home to relax because we wanted to go downtown to see fireworks at night. We ate at home knowing we were going to just have drinks. 

We changed and headed out just in time..


I was loving my outfit! My shirt was from Victoria Secret's, a small and so comfy. I am buying more of them for sure!! I felt great and loved my hair. I am loving the way my legs look hair, they are toning up and thinning out.

Sure I didn't have a great weigh in and sometimes I feel like a horse but you have to own the moments you just feel good.


We saw the fireworks and then had a night about town.. We drank and had some snacks at a tapas bar and it was the best date night. We needed a night like this..





And today I paid for it lol..def was a bit hungover...thankfully it was a rest day per training!!

Then this happened..


I dropped my phone on my tile floor and it didn't make it. So I got a new one and I am loving it!!!

I spent my rest day playing and setting it up, napping and hydrating for my 13 miles on deck tomorrow and carb loading a bit..


I love marathon training for this!!! Yum!!

My weekend off has been wonderful. Haven't tackled my laundry, reading or social media stuff yet, but these past two days have been great!!!

Low Point Apple Crisp

Image
At my Weight Watchers meeting yesterday, my leader told me about a low point apple crisp and I couldn't resist making it today. I love apple crisp, I don't have it often or really at all, because it can be high in points and frankly I like low maintenance  baking, so when I can find something easy and quick and low in points, well I am all game!! This apple crisp is again so easy and quick, perfect for a craving, a family gathering, party or just to have around the house. Requires only 3 or 4 ingredients to prepare this and you might even have all of it in your house right now. Apple Crisp Serving Size 4 4pp for a serving 4-5 medium apples 2 packets of Cinnamon or Maple Brown Sugar Oatmeal (preferably one that are 100-120 calories or 3pp) 8 oz of Diet Sprite or Diet 7up 5 sprays of Can't Believe It's Not Butter 1tsp of light brown sugar 8x8 baking pan Here is what I used: I actually used 5 apples because I

Let's Go To The Movies....And EAT at Cobb Theaters Tyrone

Image
As part of the Tampa Bay Bloggers, I was given access and a gift card to tour the new Cobb Theatre at the Tyrone Square Mall for social share and blog post, all opinions and reviews are my own. I have lived in the St. Petersburg Area for almost 7 years now and worked at the Tyrone Square Mall for 6.5. In those 6.5 years, I anxiously waited for the mall to get a movie theatre and the time has finally come and this is not just any run of the mill movie theatre, this one is luxury and spacious and a whole experience on its own. Nanci, over at This Crazy Life of Mine , also a Tampa Bay Blogger and more importantly one of my besties, and I have partnered with our blog post about the Cobb Experience. She was in attendance also and there is so much to tell you, we decided to break it up into TWO part posts, linking to the two of our blogs together. I am going to give you the details on the food experience at Cobb, believe me it is more than just soda, candy and popcorn and Nanci is going

Perspective: My Trauma, Fear and Rejection

Well we have made it through another week of CoronaVirus, Stay Home, Social Distancing of 2020. I honestly have no clue what to call it, other than that. Today, has been 2 weeks since we closed BBW and shut down the store. Originally we had some high hopes we would have been open by yesterday, the mall sent an email saying they weren't going to open until the 19th, and then Pres. Trump extended the Social Distancing until the 30th. I honestly have no clue when I am going back to work. I am literally just trying to take it day by day and moment by moment, and week by week. I have been surviving and also Thriving during this process. I am a child of hard things. I have been through some tough shit in my day, and maybe I will get to that at some point, but we can save that for another post. Today the idea of Perspective is in my brain. If you don't know, which I am sure you do know if you follow along with me, but Rachel Hollis, whom is one of the many people I look
