Get Your Run On

At the beginning of the year I told myself I was going to get back into running.  It was something that I missed towards the end of last year and the scale showed it.  The first few times back were so hard that I thought about quitting, but then I though do I really want to feel like a fat-ass anymore.  Clearly the answer was no therefore I continued.  In a month I have shaved 10 minutes off my route and can run a 9:30 mile.  It's the small victories friends:)

Overwhelming Happiness

Last week at the office was crazy-town which left me no time to blog, hence the unintentional blogging break. 

On Friday we had an all-staff meeting and our new family member were introduced.  Since we are about 6 months behind it was my turn to get up and introduce myself.  I knew it was coming and I was terrified.  Like most people I have a fear of public speaking.  We were about half way through and Blake called my name.  I immediate turned red as I was walking to the stage, but something happened, my co-workers erupted in applause.  I looked at Blake and the look on my face probably said it all, I was shocked.  He said, “They don’t even applause for me like that anymore!” 

I got up, introduced myself, answered a couple questions and was done.  Afterwards I was complete overwhelmed at how welcoming and supportive everyone was towards me.  It is yet another reaffirmation of knowing where you are supposed to be in life.  Each and everyday I am so blessed for my wonderful job.  This is apart of the plan God has for me.  I can’t wait to see what he has planned for my future.

Currently

Reading: Point of Retreat by Colleen Hoover.  This month I have read 6 books.  Books have quickly replaced TV, which I actually love.   I was watching was to much of the tube anyways.

Wanting: Anything and everything for Cabo!  I have been scouring websites looking for the most fun dresses and bathing suites. 

Feeling: Sore.  The past couple weeks I have been working out 4 days per week and taking fun classes around LA.  Honestly I don’t know what has gotten into me, but I am loving the new and improved version of myself.

Listening: Tegan & Sara’s Closer and Girl Talk for my workouts.  I love falling in love with old music again. 

Drinking: Water and Diet Dr. Pepper only.  I’ve had alcohol only 3 days this month which might be a record.  Not worth wasting the calories.

Dreaming:  The day M gets to show his film at Sundance.  

Loving:  New friends.  More on this laterJ

Sunday Social

What is your ideal way to relax? 

Give me a glass of wine, a hot shower and a bed with clean sheets and I will be in heaven.

Where is your favorite place to be? 

Pawleys Island, South Carolina.  I haven’t been there in years but my childhood memories of napping in the hammock at our rental after spending the day at the beach make me so happy.

Who do you consider your biggest roll model? 

For marriage, my parents.  They went through a lot when I was a teenage and stuck it out.  They really showed my sisters, M and I that love can concur all.

Personally, almost any woman married to a director in Hollywood.  I bow down to you and can't wait to be apart of your unique club one day.

What does your life look like in 3 years? 

M and I will have been married for 8 years and will still be in LA.  He will be working on his second movie.  I’ll still be at T0MS or traveling on location with M. We will have bought our property in Montana and possibly be renting a house.  No kids yet.  That is apart of our 5-7 year plan.    

If you could go back and change one decision what would it be? 

I would have loved to go to a big college football school for college, preferably U of Florida.

What is your biggest accomplishment in life thus far? 

My career so far.  Five years ago I was a receptionist at Guess then worked my way up to EA to the COO and by chance a position opened at my dream company.  I applied, interviewed and got it.  

I will say my relationship with M is up there too.  15 years with the same guy and not breaking up once in high school or college is quite the accomplishment.  I guess you could say it is a tie.

Nothing says love like upside-down margaritas {2006} :)
