As Summer Fades to Fall….

September 14, 2011 Leave a Comment

I’ve done an extremely bad job of keeping up with the blog lately…I’ll blame it on the fact that nothing exciting has happened until the past week or so! I just got back from a week-long vacation at the Outer Banks, so finally, something to write about…

Ivar _gaq = _gaq || [];
_gaq.push([‘_setAccount’, ‘UA-20949449-1’]);
_gaq.push([‘_trackPageview’]);

(function() {
var ga = document.createElement(‘script’); ga.type = ‘text/javascript’; ga.async = true;
ga.src = (‘https:’ == document.location.protocol ? ‘https://ssl’ : ‘https://www’) + ‘.google-analytics.com/ga.js’;
var s = document.getElementsByTagName(‘script’)[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s);
})();

The weekend before we left for the beach, a hurricane hit the OBX…so that was a bit stressful. Fortunately, the cottage we rented was not damaged and we were still able to go and enjoy our vacation. Of course, while we were there, another hurricane was brewing up along the coast, which caused the ocean to be pretty rough. It was still gorgeous as ever, though, and I was able to relax and enjoy doing nothing. Of course, I would say I’ve had a pretty relaxed and easy summer as it was…a month in Europe, then sitting by a pool lifeguarding all day. Yeah, it doesn’t get much easier than that. But I digress. It was nice to relax and enjoy vacation because……I actually had a job to go to when I got back from vacation!

_gaq.push([‘_setAccount’, ‘UA-20949449-1’]);
_gaq.push([‘_trackPageview’]);

(function() {
var ga = document.createElement(‘script’); ga.type = ‘text/javascript’; ga.async = true;
ga.src = (‘https:’ == document.location.protocol ? ‘https://ssl’ : ‘https://www’) + ‘.google-analytics.com/ga.js’;
var s = document.getElementsByTagName(‘script’)[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s);
})();

Yes, finally, I’m working in the industry that I’ve always been so interested in. I am interning for a Marketing, Advertising, and Public Relations agency in town, as well as interning for a UFL football team doing Public Relations work. I’m really excited about these opportunities, and I hope to soon be working full-time in the industry. Right now, I’ve never been more certain about my change of plans – I dropped out of law school this past March because I hated it, and I’ve never looked back. I LOVE the Marketing/PR industry and I am so thrilled to have these internships doing exactly what I want to do.

So now that I’m doing something I’m passionate about, I’m really able to just enjoy every day. I am looking forward to Fall and football season…which I pretty much missed out on last Fall when I was slaving away in law school. I’m looking forward to learning new things, using my college degree, and enjoying having time to spend with family and friends for once 🙂 I’ve always thought of Fall as a new beginning, because for the past 17 years, I had been starting a fresh, new school year. Now, Fall is a new beginning because I am finally starting my career and I’m no longer a student. Crazy, but exciting!

Here’s to football, Pumpkin Spice lattes, and new beginnings 🙂

Last week to this week ➡️ We’re SO grateful Last week to this week ➡️ We’re SO grateful for a quick recovery from pneumonia — having a sick child is scary enough, but to top it off with no space in our local hospitals’ PICU and being flown to Asheville, you can imagine we were beyond stressed last week 😩 So so grateful she’s back to normal and on International Women’s Day, it felt like a good time to celebrate Brynn 🥰 Thank you to all of our friends & family who reached out, lent a helping hand and kept us in your thoughts & prayers ❤️

Prolon Day 3 | The day started off really good — Prolon Day 3 | The day started off really good — I felt very clear-minded and awake this AM 🥳 Truly, I was nervous because today was a very low-cal day and I wasn’t sure how I’d feel 😅 I did grab a plain iced espresso because my energy was depleting super quickly and that def helped 👌🏼 After lunch, though, I started to hate depriving myself of real food and disliked that I couldn’t push myself in my workouts like I usually do 😒 After dealing with three kids who clearly woke up on the wrong side of the bed 😆, slicing my hand open with a knife and being cranky and irritable because I’ve been hangry for 3 days, I caved. And sorry, not sorry ✌🏼 I just wanted a dang salad and some protein so I can lift heavy things 💪🏼 Moral of the story, listen to your body and what it needs. And maybe try a 1-2 day cleanse/fast because that’s about all mine could handle 🤪

@prolonfmd Day Two | Overall an easier day than ye @prolonfmd Day Two | Overall an easier day than yesterday 👌🏼 Time went by faster and I didn’t have any nausea from being hungry…I looked forward to and savored all of today’s meals — the black bean soup for dinner was actually really good (esp with a little cumin + paprika!) 🙌🏼 I did @pure_barre this AM and then a @onepeloton walk this afternoon…keeping it light because of how little I’m consuming this week 😅 Not gonna lie, nervous for day 3 because it’s the lightest day of food and I’m already pretty hangry in general 🤣 Interestingly, I’ve felt pretty amazing today other than just craving a real meal 👌🏼 Btw, was so hungry for dinner that I forgot to share it in the reel 🤦🏼‍♀️
