my night in...

1. face time with the fiance who is out of town for a whole week {sad-face}: CHECK
2. Ab Ripper X: CHECK
3. spinach mozzarella chicken "hot dogs" for dinner: CHECK 

{seriously they included 3 of the 4 food groups: protein, cheese, & green vegetables}

4. $3.99 bottle of vioginer: mmm mmm CHECK {and we have the 4th food group: wine!}

5. sing off season 3: in progress!

p.s.  remember when there were four food groups?  and Pluto was a planet?  

tropical.storm.mary.kay

yeah… so the picture below pretty much explains the title! 

ladies and gentlemen this is not a page from the catalogue!  

**this is a photo of my bathroom counter**

before last week i'll admit i had some satin hands & "thinking of you" Eau de Parfum

after finding out one of my favorite nurses was an MK not-for-profit distributor things got a little out of hand!  

God bless a 50% discount!  

facials and microdermabrasion = tuesday's favorite thing 

**on the wedding front**

186 days to go too… (a.k.a 6 months and 4 days!)

one tiny step closer to locking in an officiant 

{less need to worry Kitty}

we will however, award one lucky guest a "surprise" if they complete this application and have to use it

and the planning the honeymoon ball is rolling!!

...find your thing...

this commercial was brought to my attention last night and i thought it pretty much sums up my workout attitude lately!  {my company makes some pretty cute commercials}  i am loving this fall-ish weather and loving walks on the Greenway.  apparently at 30 your knees go out and you get "asthma" again when you run!  walking is nice and i don't get a rash.

today's favorite things: Lady A's new album and 4th attempt to stop biting my nails this year = OPI (game day) RED

whippet good!

several favorite things to report!

1. 3 day weekends… pretty self explainatory
2. football season… Go Dawgs!  And thanks for not having the first 3 games at home starting at noon

3. new babies! {congrats Christine and Corey}  this brave lady had a surprise natural childbirth this afternoon!  ...what a hero…  but i don't really want to know her opinion on going natural!  call me crazy… but its just one of those bucket list things for me... un-like running a marathon, or becoming an iron(wo)man.  

4. 36 hour beach trips!  last friday we hit the road after work… "why do we drive 5 1/2 hours for a day trip to the sand?"  oh yes… this is why! we were home by 6 on sunday and had a little sunburn to remind us of the quickie until Wednesday!

5. whippets: 1 part pinnacle whipped cream vodka; 2 parts whynatte latte {canned caffeinated latte coffee beverage}.  the official tailgating beverage of the 2011 season for the bowers and bowers-to-be clan.  also not bad on the beach *for lunch*
