November Happiness Project Recap – Remember Love

November 30, 2011

Before I recap my happiness project for this month, it’s also time to recap NaBloPoMo. It’s coming to an end, and surprisingly I’m sort of devastated about it! I’ve had so much fun posting everyday, and it certainly rekindled my love for this space! I don’t think I’ll continue to post every single day, but [...]

One time I asked Justin what I should blog about…

November 29, 2011

Half-Marathon Training

November 28, 2011

Remember when I said we signed up for a half-marathon? We were so excited to start training and get serious about running. But then life happened, and we stopped going to the gym. Then we never got back into it. And now here we are, 6 months before the race, not able to run a mile. [...]

Oh, How Pinteresting! vol. 3

November 23, 2011

It’s that time again, to showcase my favorite pins of the week!   I love this plum and green color combo! Such a simple way to store cleaning supplies. Much better than my broken basket in the pantry! I want to make these for my future babies. Definitely want to put this on steps someday. [...]

Happiness Project Update: Money Sucks

November 22, 2011

So remember when I had it all planned out to pay off all of our debt (besides a potential mortgage) by April 2015? I’m still going to try SO SO SO hard to make that happen, but it just got a little more difficult. Originally when we set up our debt snowball, we said “now, we [...]
