This was my first year since I was 12 years old that I didn’t go Black Friday shopping at 4AM. It was a little weird and definitely reaffirmed my love for the crazy morning of shopping, drinking coffee, eating breakfast with my friends/family, and then napping my early afternoon away. Yesterday morning, Neal and I…
Why hello there weekend! After a busy, busy week being able to spend these past three days at the Nationals Baseball Park has been such a treat. Neal and I went to Opening Day on Thursday and returned Friday night for game 2 against the Reds. I had a big lunch on Friday but didn’t…
Yesterday I received an amazing package from my beautiful sister Alison! I’m not too sure I’ve shared this with y’all, but I am in LOVE with Russia and subsequently, Matryoshka dolls. I have been given some beautiful Russian art work over the years and can not wait to create a Russian themed room in my…
Yesterday was a sad, sad day. I ordered a venti coffee and was given a traditional Starbucks cup. Had I known Sunday would have been my last day with a Starbucks holiday cup, I would have treasured it that much more. With my “plain” coffee cup in hand, Neal and I headed to the Pro…
Happy Christmas Eve! I hope that today finds you full of joy, happiness and love. No matter where you are or who you’re with, I hope that you are happy and full of peace. Today, Neal and I went to the Redskins vs. Vikings NFL game here in Washington, DC. We honestly couldn’t have asked…
This weekend has been AWESOME! Last week was a whirlwind… busy, non-stop, etc… and yet I don’t really remember what all I did. Isn’t it funny how some weeks play out that way? This weekend started out with an office happy hour Friday after work. I couldn’t wait for that ice cold beer to hit…
Today’s post is rather hodge podge as there is so much I want to share. First off, who has seen this commercial? I cried the first time I saw it and it still gets to me every time… It’s really a beautiful take on life but it makes me happy and sad all in a…
It is a beautiful day here in Washington, DC. The sun is shinning and there is no rain in sight! Last night I watched the September 11 Dateline special ‘America Remembers‘ and let me tell you, I was a hot mess. Although it is hard to watch, it’s important to remember where we all were…
Saturday Recap After rolling out of bed this morning at 8AM, I joined Neal and his parents for breakfast at a new restaurant in town. I had ever intention of going for a run this morning, but when my alarm went off at 6:30AM I had a terrible headache. I’m sure the run would…
It’s FRIDAY!! but first… a Wednesday Night Recap Wednesday night Neal and I met up to see the Washington Nationals play the Cincinnati Reds at Nationals Park. I love going to baseball games. 3 years ago I bought season tickets to the Nationals and was a ticket holder for two years. I decided not to…
It has been way too long! I miss my blog, I miss you guys, and I miss normalcy. Life has been pretty hectic this month, and yes, it has only been 7 days so far. So let me update you on the month of July thus far… June 29/June 30– I had a phone interview…
What a morning! I knew something was up when I woke up feeling rested and low and behold it was 9:08AM. I had slept through both of my alarms! I love hate it when that happens! So last night my BF and I went to the Nationals game. I absolutely love this ballpark and it’s…
