Because I went to bed an hour earlier on Thursday night, I woke up on my own at 4:50 AM. I could not believe it. And then 2 minutes later I remembered I was doing a Day in the Life and grabbed this screenshot off of my phone! #lifeofablogger
Then I headed to the kitchen to fill up my cup of Spark. We splurged on the fridge because it had this feature and I knew I would use it–I can set a glass and have the fridge auto-fill it with water while I do something else.
I started the routine of morning blog reading during grad school because my afternoons and nights were filled with schoolwork. I enjoyed that routine so much that I’ve kept it up!
This is real life, y’all. Me at approximately 5:05 AM. Bedhead and all.
When Dustin works, he leaves before I get up. I actually really enjoy my morning routine on those mornings because I tote this wireless bluetooth Bose my dad bought me into the bathroom and listen to music while I shower and get ready! I have to be quiet when Dustin is at home 🙂
Grammar workbooks and grading while at school today.
After school I met up with my mom at our local coffee shop downtown to have a snack and drink a cup of coffee!
I offered to share my chocolate chip cookie 🙂 I had the French vanilla latte and Mom had a mocha. Both were incredibly good!
After school and finally home and I am exhausted! Teachers had to wear school t-shirts today but at least it was jean day!
I lit my favorite candle from Anthropologie and turned on Friends.
…And then I decided to head to Academy and look for new running shorts.
I found a great Under Armor pair that I think will work for me (I’m picky about my running shorts) and then I walked over to the tennis shoes to see if I could find a pair of tennies that would look cute with leggings and t-shirts. The tennis shoes I wear now with leggings are old running shoes…and not cute.
Then I ran into Old Navy and found this cute dress that ended up looking horrible on me! The cut would be cute on a smaller chested girl, but it was so baggy on me and did absolutely nothing for me. Is it only me that can never find anything from Old Navy that works for me?
I grabbed a burrito bowl to go from Moe’s to eat at home before my friend Sarah came over to walk. I’m going to give myself an A- for pictures yesterday because I forgot to take a picture of us! We walked for an hour in the neighborhoods that surround mine.
I ended the night writing this post while watching The Wedding Planner–I love this movie! I think this movie gave me my love of routines because I remember how much Jennifer Lopez’s character was so into her nightly routines!
