I spent a lot of time worrying and stressing this weekend even though there were many marvelous things happening. I was somehow blinded by:what I wanted–right then and there,what wasn’t working,cleaning up messes,unanticipated shenanigans late into the night when I had articles due,a blog transfer that isn’t going so smoothly…mainly due to the fact that…

WIAW #80: Voodoo Tacos and Sweet Blueberry Almonds
I cut off last week’s Two Weddings and a Birthday WIAW (or What I Ate Wednesday) because it was getting suuuper long, but I left out some tasty details I really wanted to share. PS Make sure to check out Jenn’s WIAW party going on right now (but after you check out this post!)! The…
WIAW #79 Two Weddings and a Birthday
Is it really Wednesday?? It has been a crazy few days! This past weekend Dave and I made the 6-7 hour trip back to Omaha, Nebraska. For two weddings and a birthday. Dave was in one of the weddings, so it made the weekend that much busier. Friday night we attended Sam and Claire’s wedding…
{MIMM #17} Whirlwind
Hello Friends! Not only did I survive this crazy busy weekend…I survived running 13.1 miles in the chilly 40 degree weather. Yes, it is May, but it felt more like a frigid February. That’s the midwest for ya though! For example, last Sunday I ran 10 miles in 70 degree weather and got a little…
{MIMM #16} Blessed
Hello Friends! I am sitting here in my dad’s basement Sunday evening at 11pm, very exhausted, waiting for my laundry to be done and thinking how blessed I am. And how seldom I believe myself to be so. I got to head to my hometown where I was surrounded by people all weekend. While…
{MIMM #13} What DID I do in KC?
Happy Monday, Friends! MIMM or Marvelous in my Monday is all about positivity on a day that many of us dread….Mondays. I am so happy Katie started this link-up so we can get our weeks off on the right foot! Last week I got to hang out with Dave (the BF) over Spring Break in…
{MIMM #11} At Least I had a Good Weekend?
Hello Friends! It’s always something. Does it seem like that to anyone else? Maybe it’s just one of those challenging phases of life.Where I learn a whole lot about myself and what really matters and how to operate under stress and deal with the loneliness that comes from moving to a new city…. Or maybe…
{MIMM #10} It’s Monday BUT
Hello Friends! Sometimes it takes me a bit to recover from the weekend. Specifically the sleeping schedule. I stay up late Sunday evening getting things unpacked (when I go back home..like this weekend) and getting ready for the week…then it takes time to unwind and have my bedtime tea and cereal. As a result, it…
{#MIMM #9} Winning
Happy Monday! It’s another Marvelous Monday! Mondays tend to be a weekend recap as of late, so here was my weekend! Dave (the BF) and I had another fun-food-filled weekend back in my home town. (It’s so weird that I don’t live there anymore! 25 years of my life and I have to visit my…
Weekend Fun + Giveaway Teaser
Hello Friends! Well I feel like I haven’t had a moment to breathe this weekend…although that is probably an exageration. I am alive, afterall. Friday I was talking on the phone with the BF (who was on his way home!) and I started squealing and saying, “It’s here! It’s here!” I could see from my…
