random monday thoughts

Since Hurricane Irene decided to knock out the power in our apartment complex I decided to come to work with Brett today and make good use of the power/ internet/ air conditioning his building has to offer! And since I have the whole day to play around on my computer I thought it would be a perfect time to write in my good ol' blog. Here are some random things I have been thinking about lately:

• School starts tomorrow (kind of, we have meetings this week and kids next week) and I think I'm finally ready to have a daily routine to my life again.
• I want to get back into REALLY good shape. I'm in OK shape, but not great shape, and I miss it desperately. I miss the days of playing sports year round and never being in bad shape. I'm going to try my hardest to re-create those days with true dedication to the gym/ working out and most importantly - good eating habits. Here is to being healthy and happy!
• Brett and I are going to Boston this weekend to hang out with Ashley and Zach and I am so pumped.
• I joined Pinterest and am an addict. If you don't know what it is then you need to google it immediately and join. It is a great time waster, but also has given me inspiration for so many things. From crafting to clothes and great food recipes, this website has it all and I can't wait to try some of the things it has to offer.
• I wish that my family and friends, and Brett's family and friends (and us of course) were all in the same place. I know this is highly unlikely, but a girl can dream, right? Don't get me wrong, I love to travel and with everyone scattered around the country it gives us a wonderful opportunity do to a lot of it. But when I start to think about settling down and having a family of our own someday, it hurts my heart to think we won't all be together to hang out all the time as one gigantic family/ friend group. I know that's just what happens when college is over and reality sets in, but that doesn't make it any easier!

I think that's all for now. I'll make sure to post more as the thoughts keep flowing!
