Wounded Warrior Half Marathon & the Stress of Buying a House!

These last 2 months have been such a wild ride! Who knew buying a house was so damn stressful!? Haha I should've known... 

Every time I pull up my email, the loan officer needs something else from me. Shit,  I don't know where my 2010 W-2 & 1040 are... I have a copy of every other year but that one apparently ha. Stress leads to me chewing on my nails & cuticles so I had to woman-up & get fake nails so I wouldn't look like I have a hand disease. Now I look like a diva announcing the sex of her baby w/ baby blue tips (my mom didn't find that joke funny when I told her). 

Speaking of babies, I LOOK pregnant because I seriously fell off the healthy eating bandwagon and fell HARD. Graduating, moving, training for the marathon, changing jobs, and now buying a house has led me to way too many nights out with friends & lots of beer drinking. Oh & I go to lunch way too much now, too. 

THAT ENDS NOW.

I do not regret any of times I've been out lately. Concerts are my favorite form of entertainment but I know I need to ease up on the beer since I'm not burning as many calories. & Whataburger needs to be illegal because it's even better after 4+ Michelob Ultras. 

I did just sign up for another half marathon though & I'm always healthier when I'm training!  I'm running the Wounded Warrior Half Marathon, June 9th in Irving, TX! A good friend of mine from high school lives in Dallas & she's letting me stay w/ her & she's also running it. It'll be nice to spend that time with her because she just told me she's moving to NC in September =( 

I'm trying to think of a reward to get myself when I get back to the body I LOVED! I am currently up almost 20 pounds... I weigh more today than I did before my tummy tuck which is unacceptable! I don't look bad (advantage of being tall!) but my clothes aren't anywhere near loose anymore & I look bloated. I was thinking about getting the tattoo I've been wanting but I need to save money for the house so I'm thinking a new running top, James Avery ring, or a spa service =) I'd say a concert but I go almost one a week so that's nothing new... Off the top of my head, so far this year I have seen:


  1. Reckless Kelly
  2. Wade Bowen
  3. Stoney Larue
  4. Turnpike Troubadours
  5. Max Stalling
  6. Cory Morrow
  7. Spazmatics
  8. Vallejo
  9. Ryan Bingham this coming Saturday
  10. Wade Bowen again next Thursday =)
I have an addiction!!
