It all started when...

The last 2 weeks have been fairly busy, full of carbs and quite eventful.  don't worry - I took a bunch of selfies for you.  I have been all over Kentucky - Ohio - and Nebraska and now Montana.  Needless to say, my diet and exercise have taken a strong turn for the worst.  SO...I decided to write about it and make it all better and make a plan forward to hold myself a little more accountable while I am on the road the next couple of weeks.
Good Plan.

Well, last week was my birthday and I spent it in Omaha with my sister and some great friends.  Thanks ladies for treating me to such a fun night - you are all so special to me! 

We went to a great wine bar in Omaha called 'Nosh'.  It is one of my favorite places there!  You definitely need to check it out if you ever find yourself in the Omaha Old Market area.  We had champagne, dinner, and some cake to top off the evening.

My bday is 9/11 which is already an odd day to celebrate on, so I am happy to stay in and shop online to celebrate.  BUT - I'd take spending time with people that I love over Amazon and Zappos any day. 

BUT...thats not where it all started.  Rewind one week prior....


My sweet co-workers knew I was going to be gone for my b-day and gave me an early surprise with an office FULL of balloons (about 3-400 to be exact) and homemade German Chocolate Cake!  I die!  It's my fave!  It was so good and so nice of them to think of me!  I'm thankful to work with such great people!  It makes living and working 'on the road' so much easier!  My office was really difficult to work in the rest of the day!  It was far too festive in there for a construction site!  (I'm still popping balloons!  Great stress relief!)

The rest of the week looked like this:


Yes - that's a White Russian.  I wish I could drink about 10 of those bad-boys every.single.day.  Hells to the yah.  (I did ask for skim milk to cancel everything else out)  I feel the the 'Dude' when I drink them.  So much cooler than normal.

My Hunney send me the prettiest boquet of flowers, they were absolutely beautiful!  It is hard to see, but the tiny pink roses were so unique.  They weren't just pink, but swirled with a lighter pink.  Gorrrgggg!


To: Krystal - thanks for being so great.  Happy 25th Birthday (again)!  With Love From: Krystal

I picked up the SUPER CUTE top from the gift shop at the casino!  Its great when you find treasures where you least expect it!  The top reminds me of a mullet - hence the reason why I like it so much!  Side note:  I didn't find any treasures while gambling though and lost a cool hundy in the slot machines in about 5 min flat. 

Well - today it starts again.  Back to normal healthy habits.  I am not going to let 2 foolish weeks get me down....I have to admit - the tightness of my jeans gets me down a little though.  ;)  Enjoy your weekend and make the most of every single thing you do!

I'm spending my day today with my Grandpa Phil on the ranch and even have my running clothes on already.  Hopeful that I will get a run in God's Country today.  I'm up to 7 miles on my half-marathon training.  Only a couple of months to go! 

This is my favorite place on earth!



That's Gramps - he is in his mid-80's and is still going strong and is such a great person to look up to.  I am sure he can out work me anyday of the week.  I am a lucky girl to have such a great man in my life!

Cheers to starting new and not looking back!
