Top 5

These things make me happy when I think about summa time!

Mmmm! Best Starbucks drink I've ever had, so so refreshing!

Except I get the light version, so mine looks like that minus all of the yummy goodness on the top. It's still delish though!

Our neighborhood pool opens in just a couple of weeks! Yay! Sooo ready for some much needed sun on my pasty skin!

I gave up the tanning bed after I got married and that was HARD to do but I did it! I've been tanning since I was in high school and I was very serious about it. Especially in college, I worked at a tanning salon and let's just say that my skin was orange, leathery and disgusting! Ick! Getting married and talking about kids made me realize that I really don't want to have to go through having skin cancer when we will have sweet little babies to think about. So I'll stick with some real rays and sunscreen! I've never had to kick an addiction, I'm thinking this was pretty darn close!

P.S. Mystic tanning is just too expensive and I'd rather spend my money on something else, just sayin'.

The Salad Bowl! Summer means that I will be eating salad, a-lot! My summer staples: salad,fruit,coffee, water...maybe the occasional mexican beer.

Hal Higdon's 1/2 marathon training schedule, this is the schedule for beginners. Yep, I'm seriously committing to this. I have to now that I've broadcast it across America and to several other countries (that's what my blog stats are telling me anyway, pretty exciting!). Sooo I began training for a half just one other time (last summer) and I made it to week 5, 6 miles, and then I quit. I should've kept going but I was so busy at the time. I even signed up for the Rock'n'Roll 1/2 in San Antonio and paid $100 to run. Ugh! I'll post my weekly stats on the running. Stat: I started today, 3 miles. Check.

Graduation in August!!!

I never thought 4 years ago when I graduated from ACU that I would go back to school. Except this time it only took me one and a half years as opposed to 5 the first time. I did it and I've loved it but now I'm ready to be done again. I need to join the workforce again, so bad.

Sad Side Note: Education budget cuts at the exact same time I finish my degree. Awesome right?

Sooo I might be looking into Corporate America, yet again, if I don't receive a phone call by August (on the up-side, at least I have the option to work in the business world), fingers crossed.

These are my Top 5 and then I have about one million other little things...but we'll just stick with these. That could take forever.
