Weekly Recap + Day 4 of the May challenge.

On the blog:
Tuesday: Back in the day.
Wednesday: Our pledge + 250 words.

Woah, I blogged every single day this week. Once, two times in one day!
Today, we have a lot going on -- so, I'm just stopping in real quick.

Sean's fixing his motorcycle, so it can be used this year (more on that later).
I have a bridal shower to go to, and then we have dinner plans.


Today's challenge: a favorite quote and why you love it.

I wanted to choose something really profound. About the future, or love, or education, or inspiration. And I wanted to choose something that I truly believe, and have truly believed in for most of my life. There are so many quotes in the world and too many on the internet.

I was thinking about what I love to do, what makes me happy, how I live my life and what gives me motivation. The constant in my life, and the very repetitive nature of myself, is one that lives by a good book, a TV show I can relate to, and a movie that I feel compelled to watch and re-watch over and over. And so, I realized, that I should choose a favorite quote from one of my first favorite TV shows because I still watch it daily, still feel it's a true account of what growing up truly is like, and still know that, for me, it never gets old.

There are a lot of TV shows that come and go. A lot that I've loved, and enjoyed and felt a connection with.  But Boy Meets World, is one that sends me back to elementary school all over again. I remember having sleepovers, each week, with my best friend and watching the newest episode each Friday Night (TGIF, anyone?).

And that's why I've loved the show and that's why the quote I chose, is from Boy Meets World.
I like it's representative of any relationship you have in life.
And that's why I love it.

I know, it's a shortened version of something else.
But I think this version is short, sweet and truthful.
And that's why I love it.

Weekly Recap + a Saturday walk.

On the blog:

Tuesday: We're renters.

It's Saturday and our washing machine broke again. The water traveled through our walls into our bedroom closets. It's pretty unfortunate for all our formerly clean clothes to be wet with not-so-clean water... all at the same time. Luckily, they're giving us a new machine on Monday. But for now we're running up and down the stairs to another washer/dryer in an empty apartment unit the office is letting us use. Wet towels are very heavy. Who knew?

I'm on an exercise kick -- one that doesn't involve going to the gym. So Sean and I went for a walk -- outside. It was complete with beautiful views, Toms (which are pretty comfortable for walking, by the way), and my new RunKeeper app. You can tell it that you're "walking" rather than running. It was about 2 miles. And I have to say I'm super proud. I only complained a little.


We've lived across the street from this for over a year now. This is the first time we explored it. Hopefully we'll go back tomorrow.

Weekly Recap.

On the blog:

Sunday: Happy Easter.

This morning, I decided it was time to switch out my winter clothes for spring clothes.
It's only 29 degrees outside but I figure someone needs to make the first move.
And it's clearly not going to be mother nature.

A huge mess was made before it started looking semi-normal.
The closet was emptied, as were huge bins from underneath the bed and hall closet.
But I'm about to leave and it still looks a little disastrous.

In the same spring spirit -- I'm going to get my first pedicure of this "warm" season.
I'm excited to wear flip-flops... even if it means that today I could possibly get frost bite.
Ouch.

A blog hop!

young and restless


Thanks for stopping by!

I'm currently spending some time with Millie. It's almost her birthday and she's being treated to a Frosty Paw.

I hope your Saturday is as wonderful as hers.
