Thankful Thursday

Hiya friends! Jumpin in for a quick Thankful Thursday. :) Stole the button from the fabulous Tracy, who posts her own Thankful Thursdays pretty regularly. :)



Today, I'm thankful for...

1. All of your WONDERFUL comments on my previous post! I've tried to respond to a ton of them b/c they are all SO great! I even received a couple great emails with travel tips from ya'll too!! You guys seriously ROCK MY SOCKS! Thank you! I traveled yesterday with work and have had some things in the evenings, so I haven't been able to respond to everything yet since I was pretty out of pocket, but I am LOVING them and appreciate them oh so much! I can't wait to curl up later at home and do some internet research on some of the places you mentioned and respond more to your fabulous tips!

2. Vera Bradley sales! I bought my very first Vera bag Monday night online, which is random b/c I never used to even be a Vera fan, but have been wanting one lately... *shrugs* It was on major sale and I've been wanting the small duffel so much b/c it seems so versatile-gym clothes, plane carry on, weekend trip, overnight bag, etc. I feel like I'm always looking for a bag this size to put stuff in and never have one. Plus, sometimes I carry tons of randomness in to work... I have to park kinda far so I wear flats and carry in heels to put on in the building, gym clothes, etc......(read: I'm justifying the purchase) ;)

Got this one! (java blue)

3. Prescription Nasal Spray. What? TMI? Yeah, sorry about that. I'm breathing through my mouth pseudo-Darth Vader this week... I dont puffy-heart allergies. Since I've had my Rx, I'm sounding more like myself and less like a 13 year old boy going through puberty.

4. My hip hop dance class! Here's a video from the studio and shows our instructor, the owner of the studio. Ironically, I went to middle and high school with him! Didnt even realize it til the day we had the class. So freaking cool! Please note: The video is NOT what we're doing... They're breaking. If I tried to break b-boy style, I'd likely end up just BREAKING a bone. That said, class will be challenging for sure and a great, new workout. I miss dancing a lot, so I'm loving it, although I do kinda feel like Julia Styles in Save the Last Dance the first time she goes to the club and tries to be all hip hop.. lol! I can get choreography, but making it look more like hip hop and less like a 5'7 uncoordinated preppy girl is a whole other story... :)

5. My work trip yesterday! It was just down the highway to OKC, but it was so great to connect with some coworkers face to face. I think so much is lost these days in emails and stuff and we don't even realize it.. Ironic in a way b/c communicating is "easier" than ever. But to me, nothing replaces face to face interaction. :) Definitely a good day...

Okay, friends, hope you're all having a fabulous week and are as excited as I am about edging closer to Friday with every minute! Weekend, here we come!
