90 days.


Photobucket

alright friends.
it's almost time.
are you with me?
we are doing the 90 day challenge together!
whether you want to do p90x (that's what i am choosing), walk daily, run, gym, yoga...
i don't care - let's just get moving.
and TOGETHER.
(you will obviously need a day off a week)
but other than that..
90 days straight.
i hear if you do anything for 21 days you are all set.
(i hope that's true!)

so let's go through this together!

it's time to STOP saying "i'll start tomorrow"
it's time to STOP saying "if only i had more time in the day"
it's time to STOP wishing for something you want & instead going after it
it's time to improve our health.
you in?

you can comment each day, email me, or just keep it to yourself.
i will be blogging normally (and adding the 90 day challenge in)
i hope you will join me in this!

my brother and i are starting p90x next monday (when we get our dvds)

the question is, do you have it in you?

FUN PHOTO FRIDAY.

<span class=

since i am moving my client this week let's just say breakfast has been to-go from
le pain quotidien for us.
it's by far my favorite manhattan beach bakery.
organic delicious goodness.
when you pack all your silverware in a box and tape it shut -
there really isn't any choice but to eat with plastic forks and spoons.

(occasionally i'll sneak in an extra 30 minutes to organize my day with my laptop and a perfect cup of coffee - all while the sun is still rising)

my favorite item is the omega oatmeal (extra brown sugar please)
they know me by my first name now (along with the post office, UPS, starbucks)
i'm becoming very known around here...
and i am not sure if that is a good thing or not?

anywho. the movers are coming today.
thank goodness because i would have turned into a box otherwise.

tgif my lovies.

WANNA BUY A CUTE JEEP?


<span class=

hi loves!
the time has come.... i am selling my jeep :(
to be honest, i am just starting the process of figuring out how much it's worth...

but i do know:

it's a 2005.
Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo .
black.
80,000 or so miles.
adorable if i do say so myself.
i LOVE my jeep.
but i need to let go.....


oh AND even has a license plate holder that says "fueled by JENergy" get it?
i can remove that obviously, unless your name is Jen as well....

(the picture above is obviously not my car but i'm sure i would price it higher if it was)

anywho, if you are in need of a car or want to start looking, let me know!
leave a comment or of course you can email me!

CADBURY EGGS IS BETTER THAN WINNING THE MEGA MILLIONS.


okay, well not exactly.
but this is why it is important to have a best friend.
to me, eating delicious cadbury mini eggs are like winning the lotto.
let's not get crazy here - it's not the same as the $355 million i could have won yesterday,
but maybe the lotto under $100.

my BFF chelsea went to the store yesterday and texted me a picture of mini cadbury eggs.
letting me know that they are in stores!!!
i love good friends. they know you all too well.
but um seriously, they are back?
that NEVER happens before spring.
in fact, i am pretty sure i know down to the day when they arrive in store (gross, i know)

it's like i won the lotto yesterday.
i almost cried.
remember my obsession with them?

please run to get them.
then you can tell me "thank you"

i even still have my cadbury egg jar.
ya i said it.

<span class=

you know where i am going today.....

happy wednesday!

i did not love eating at rims, mikuni, and of course having my mom's jambalaya. to.die.for.
i did not love Christmas eve game night. oh my god what fun!
i have a video of me playing "MINUTE IT TO WIN IT." and getting a cookie from my forehead to my mouth in .4 seconds. i might need to send this in to the show.
my "minute" AKA .4 seconds was the best for sure! (ask ANYONE!!!!)
seriously, still laughing.
(sorry it won't let me load the video for some odd reason?) argh.
i did not love spoiling mama and brother for Christmas. i love doing that!
i did not love hanging out with friends that i haven't seen in quite some time. gosh i love them.
i did not love spending so much time with momma and brother. relaxing. eating. and laughing. yes!
i did not love spending NYE with some of my most favorites! i don't think i can now attend another party that doesn't have either (a). a photo booth and (b). a mustache. so fun!!

<span class=

i also did not love new years day movie marathon! 7 movies in a row. world record. no joke.
i did not love the 12 hour drive it took me from Sacramento to Redondo beach. um, thank you grapevine for closing. another world record.
i did not love planning out my 90 day workout with p90x!!! (ps. has anyone done this? and can give me advice?!)
i did not love driving to SF to celebrate my girl's work promotion. baller.
i did not love spending a night with my bestie in merced. AKA new roommate. oh my!
i did not love planning a few friends weddings for 2011! can't wait to create more beautiful weddings.
i did not love the fact that my iphone alarm didn't work in the morning. luckily it was my day off, and not a work day! that is my nightmare (jess, i am talking to you)
i did not love playing the lotto. i will also go get another lotto ticket tomorrow.
oh the joy of winning that thing! $300 million or something crazy? yikes. GO GET A TICKET ASAP!
i did not love listening to the GLEE Christmas soundtrack. oh i miss Christmas already.
i did not love hearing that my shows are back!!! setting my DVR's now!
i also did not love that the bachelor is back on!
let's just say here is my top & only choice:

<span class=

done & done.

emily. she's 24. gorgeous. sweet. and here's the back story...
her fiance (who was a NASCAR driver) died in a plane crash in 2004. then a few days later found out she was pregnant. her daughter is now 5.

she basically already won my heart.
