you have to find the things that love you. run to them.

It's been a challenging couple of days. I saw this on a friend's page tonight and it gave me a little boost.

So thankful for all my 'good things'.

101 in 1001: march update.

Here's the latest update on my 101 in 1001 list, and this one's fancy... with a video!

1. Become a homeowner. (March 2014)

Can't believe it's finally happening! Feeling very grown-up and SO excited.

39. Establish a weekly signature blog post. (color scoop!)

Ok, I'm slacking, as I've only done two so far. Read 'em here.

51. Pay for the next customer in line 5 times. (3/5)

I still run/drive away as quickly as possible because I don't want to seem creepy.

54. Replace coffee with tea for two consecutive weeks.

I survived and actually liked it. Here's what I learned. 

74. Share a video post on the blog.

It's right above! I was terrified of doing this, but it wasn't that bad.

101. Spend an entire day in a bathing suit at the beach. Don't forget the sunscreen. (February 2014)

I had a blast with my sister's family in the Bahamas. I'm still waiting for all the photos from her, but here are a few. 

I didn't realize how much I've crossed of the list in the past month until I went to write this update! And while it's super fun to check stuff off, it's been even more fun to enjoy the process. 

Has anyone else made a list of their own? Let me know in the comments below!

6 things to instantly boost your day.

This morning...

I had a calendar full of meetings and conference calls waiting for me at the office.

I still wasn't feeling 100% from earlier in the week.

I forgot my barre socks on the counter at home.

...and then in the car, I spilled my coffee all over myself and my white coat.

Awesome. It wasn't even 8 a.m. and I was wondering where the reset button was and how fast this day could be over.

So I made a list (that could be #7). I love lists.

Hope you all had a great day, and if it needs a little improvement, get going!
