Almost…

by paigel on September 2, 2010

Welp, I almost made it through Blog Every Day August. Just missed those last two days since I was out of town. But I promise to make up for it by taking some awesome pictures and video of this weekend’s trip with the family. And Maggie. You shouldn’t expect anything less than hilarity. Plus a few more gray hairs on my head. (Yes, I just found my first gray hair a few weeks ago.)

Until then, enjoy your Labor Day weekend doing absolutely nothing.

Thankful for the weekend

by paigel on August 29, 2010

I’m thankful for a weekend that let me forget what being an adult really means. I’m thankful for a weekend that made me reorganize my priorities… and belongings. I’m thankful for a weekend that allowed me to run further than I’ve run in the last two years.

Looking forward to the next weekend…

Goals

August 28, 2010

When I sat down to draft my 101 in 1001 list, I had a hard time thinking of more than 20 or so things that I really wanted to do. And that made me wonder if maybe I feel so frequently unsettled because I’m not entirely sure what I want in life (other than the [...]

Please don’t judge me…

August 27, 2010

… by the contents of my purse. You see, I haven’t stopped this week longer than just a few hours for sleep. So, here is the inside of my purse: A book to (a) keep me occupied in case I take a lunch break, am stuck waiting somewhere, etc., and (b) to remind me that [...]

Making a list

August 25, 2010

I’m making a list, and I’m checking it 101 times. No, I’m not OCD, I just have several friends who are doing the 101 in 1001 challenge. And after reading blog post after blog post updating their progress, I was intrigued. So, I carted my little internet self over to http://dayzeroproject.com/ and started creating my [...]

The balancing act

August 24, 2010

Today, I’m just trying to find balance. Between happy and sad. Between busy and bored. Between dedicated and apathetic. Between hard-working and lazy. Between doing what needs to get done and getting rest. In all aspects of my life, I’m just trying to find balance.

It was necessary

August 22, 2010

Everything that happened this weekend was completely necessary. Going to Atlanta, singing/dancing/watching Jack Johnson in the rain with friends, eating foods that inevitably led to my skipping my 16-mile run, buying the giant pack of Twizzlers, purchasing yet another hat– completely necessary. Ok, I’m still not sure what important role the Twizzlers or the hat [...]

Things you realize as an adult

August 21, 2010

There comes a point in your life when you realize how much things have changed. Your weight, your taste in clothes, your priorities, your passions. They all change ever so gradually, then one day– BAM. It dawns on you how different things are from the way they were years ago. With the exception of a [...]
