Rainy Funk

It's raining on this end, and it has put me in a bit of a funk. Does that ever happen to you? Funk being I slept in, haven't gone to the gym yet, and opted for a frozen pizza over cooking for lunch. I think it's natural to fall into a funk every now and again, but I like to keep my pity party in check. The way you see your life is often a reflection of your perspective--do you focus on how much you don't have or how much you do? I truly try to appreciate everything I have daily. For me, this focus on positive perspective keeps me sane. Today I will go to the gym, because I have the ability to use my limbs. Today I will be grateful for the roof over my head while it rains.

Funk aside, last night I had a fun little date night with the Aussie. We went to see Town, which was decent. Tuesdays are 6 dollar movie days (LOVE!). Dinner was literally shoveled into our mouths, because we were racing the clock (we wanted to get there a bit early to ensure good seats)


I love olives :) The salad rocked my world, and off course I enjoyed the sweet potato fries.

For lunch today the pizza choice was a new one . . .


I didn't notice the final direction was to place it under the broiler to melt the "cheese" so ours was unmelted, but still very tasty. I will definitely be buying it again the next time lazy strikes ;)



Along with the pizza we had sweet potato fries (because we're completely obsessed)


And a tomato, cucumber, avocado salad . . .



Time to be productive :)

Shopping Success

I have been hunting, literally hunting, for the perfect wedding shoes. I've gone to Marshalls, TJ Maxx, Macy's, JC Penny, Bakers, Target, and probably a few others. I found ones that could have been *the one* but they didn't fit. Today my best friend suggested DSW. Genius idea!


I walked into shoe heaven, but the first stop was the purse section. I fell in love right away . . .


The picture makes it look bigger than it is; it's an adorable *tiny* purse to fill up with all my essentials for the big day--mostly lip gloss :)

I saw these shoes and just *knew* they were the ones, but I was cautious and checked out every other shoe too. In the end none compared to these . . .


I'm so relieved to have my shoes. Now I can go for my final dress fitting.

After shopping success, I went to the local vegan place (Everlasting Life) to grab lunch for the Aussie and I.

We shared it all . . .


Not sure what this veg dish was, but it was delish :)


Strawberry & Banana smoothie (made with Simply Orange)



Ok, ok . . . the shopping trip did include some "non-essential" stuff. These were in the clearance rack just begging me to please let me take them to their forever home ;) How could I say no?


These are vegan and gorgeous!

Off to spend my shopping high at the gym,
