TGIF Ya'll!!!!!

OMG BLEEPS!

Were did the week go?? Seriously, I remember Monday, I remember thinking "wow, this week is going to be tough" and I remember Tuesday thinking "It should be Friday by now"  and then the rest is a blur. SO with that, I have almost nothing to write to you about.... So I wanted to share some random thoughts from the week:

1) If anyone ever types Friday three times consecutively do you automatically start singing the Black Eyed Peas in your head?  No? Just me?

2) In honor of Halloween, I've eaten a Reese's every day this week... just one... but could there be a more perfect taste than that?  Well, that or white chocolate covered pretzels....I need the molecular structure of these two things to change so they're as healthy as spinach.

3) Eating chocolate is good for you.  Apparently, I just skipped over the DARK chocolate part... Reeses needs to make DARK chocolate peanut butter cups


4) Did ya'll know milk has pus in it... so gross.  Raven did an awesome post on the benefits of being a vegetarian... I've been thinking about this for a long time, but this really makes me want to do a meatless day each week.... I wonder how that will go over with Husband.  Husband, are you reading? What do you think?


5) I've been in denial about the cold weather.  I feel like I was truly not ready for it this year... I want to fly away to someplace warm and sit on a beach and really take it all in... build a sand castle. You know, act like I'm 5, and on a beach, but not 5, because I'll be enjoying some cocktails.


6) My mom comes home next week from Argentina.  I'm SUPER pumped to see her... not so pumped to give her car back.  I took it again for one last round this week... I have to give it back this weekend ... bye bye SUV :-(

7) I have to run 11 miles this weekend on my training plan.  Do ya'll know how far 11 miles is?? It's a crazy long run!  Add in a sore hip and an ankle that's been just not right since last weeks run and I'm nervous.... ya'll I was not built as an athlete... I love the feeling when it's over... but going through it sometimes sucks. What do you do to break through your proverbial walls?

8) Would it be wrong to pin my own posts?  I totally want to pin some of my food posts b/c I think they taste so darn good!

9) We went to Blue Ridge a few weeks ago for family filled fun day.  Husband snapped these pics.  It was a beautiful day, if you're in the GA area, you really should go to Blue Ridge for a weekend!  They're the up and coming Highlands of Georgia.  You can rent a cabin here.  They are awesome and have the BEST cabins!!

 

 

 

 

Have a great weekend!!!  I've got something super fun to tell you... but you'll have to stay tuned!


Love,

Dunwoody/Funwoody

 Hey Ya'll!!!

Does anyone know where the last week and a half has gone?  I've been so crazy busy I'm not sure I remembered to stop and smell any roses along the way.  I am not lying when I tell you that I had no time -- like I didn't have time to stop at the ATM and deposit checks.  Large Checks. Checks that when I told my Hubby he might have freaked gotten a tad bit upset.

Sorry Husband.

I'm half hoping it slows down, but half not.  Being busy means that weddings are coming in, weddings coming in is awesome.  SO, keep them coming... I'll go to the ATM at midnight if I have to.... I'll just bring the Hubby with me (in case someone tries to rob me of course, not at all because it's cold and dark and I don't want to go alone).

Anywho, let's think back on a simpler time.... 2 weeks ago.

Husband was playing golf with the fellas so I went and met up with my Dad and sister SeesTOR for a fun afternoon in my home town.  I have to say, we never had festivals like this in Dunwoody when I was growing up.  We would go to the neighboring towns and crash their festivals.

Silly festival crashers.

SO now that Funwoody (which we used to say sarcastically) is a city, there are some super fun enhancements... like festivals. With hot cookies, and a bungee jump.

I ran 9 miles this morning... SURE!

Again, 9 miles... I'll eat that sucker up!

SeesTOR asked for extra sauce... she got it all over her mouth with every bite.... I guess I can't use it as blackmail if I'm already posting it.

Who pays $30 for a flying pig??? I took a picture for T-Bear though!

Smallest.Moving.Truck. EVER

This is when I learned it's best to tuck your socks IN to your jeans... and no one is attractive in a harness

Our "Spot" for the day

Waffle got tired and took a nap to the SUPER load music

Family times :-)

Seriously, I'm not sure I would have appreciated it when I was younger, but I'm impressed with my little hometown!  It was a great day, I just wish Husband was there to show us all how it's done on the bungee jump!

Love,
Susie Q
