{Birthday Wish List}

February 15, 2013 Comments : 2

A little less than a month from now, I’ll be celebrating my 24th birthday. It’s hard to believe I’m nearing my mid-twenties – I better start gearing up for that quarter-life crisis! Kidding. Really, though, I find it hard to believe that I’m a young professional with a career, a husband, and a new puppy. Of course, all of those things happened in a pretty rapid succession, but still! 

var _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);
})();

I’ve found that the older I get, I have a more difficult time making a “birthday wish list” or even a Christmas wish list. For one, I tend to be content with what I have. Secondly, the few things that I actually want tend to be on the expensive side – what can I say, I prefer quality over quantity! Here are a few items from my birthday list (a girl can dream, right?!):
  • Tory Burch Reva flats – I’ve only been asking for these for several years, and I admit that I’m too stingy with my money to purchase them myself. If someone else buys them for me, then I won’t feel guilty. See, I justified it!
  • An iPad – As a self-professed Apple enthusiast, I’ve been wanting an iPad for a while now. I have a MacBook Pro, an iPhone, and multiple iPods…now I just need an iPad to complete my obsession collection.
  • A new MacBook Pro – Speaking of Apple products, I have loved my trusty MacBook since my college days…but at 5 years old, I think it’s about time to upgrade! This is one of those “dream” wish list items, because I know for certain the only person who would buy this for me would be ME. I’d even have to buy this without my husband knowing because he wouldn’t allow it…ha!
  • MORE SHOES – A girl can never have enough shoes. Trust me, if you look in my closet, you’ll know I live by that statement. Despite having a small collection going already, I can always find room to add a couple of pairs to my wardrobe. A pair of black patent leather & a pair of nude patent leather pumps are both on my list!
  • A juicer – Another one of those “dream” items. I’ve been mesmerized by juicing for a while now, and I’ve pinned a bunch of recipes on Pinterest, so now I just need a way to test them out! My parents recently got a juicer, and I’m jealous of all the juicing fun that’s been going on! I already invited myself to use theirs whenever I go visit, but I’d love to be able to make juice whenever I please. 
  • A custom drawing of the church we were married in, from Etsy – I came across this idea on another blog, and I think it would be a great decor piece. The church we were married in is absolutely gorgeous, so this would be a beautiful addition to our home!
  • Throw pillows – We had these pillows on our wedding registry which match our bedding, but they were one of the few things we didn’t receive as gifts. I’ve been eyeing them for a while, as I don’t want them to be discontinued before I can get my hands on them! 
Fingers crossed I’ll get a few things off my list – I’m really not that superficial, even though I bet it sounds like it now! Since I generally don’t like to spend money, when my birthday or Christmas come around, I tend to hope someone else will buy me nice things 😉

The little things that add up 🤌🏻 My supplement st The little things that add up 🤌🏻  My supplement staples: creatine, magnesium, omega-3s & digestive enzymes. Nothing fancy—just the basics I’ve consistently found worth keeping in my daily routine!  Creatine for muscle/body composition/healthy brain function  Magnesium for sleep, stress, gut and muscle recovery  Omega-3s for heart + brain health plus the biggest trick to reducing inflammation  Digestive enzymes for gut health and aiding digestion after meals  Not saying I don’t take other vitamins and supplements, but if I could only choose 4, these pack the biggest punch 💪🏼
