Love/Don’t Love

December 28, 2013

Love: When Athleta has a good sale. Heck I love when anyone has a good sale.

Don’t Love: When I shop with abandon only to find the sale got even better the day after I blew my wad.

Love: That Things 1 and 2 had sleepover friends yesterday.

Don’t Love: They all went home just as I was melting chocolate to dip marshmallows. Having chocolate dipped confections staring at me–kind of the last thing I need.

fog1

Love: It’s been crazy pretty out in the mornings lately.

Don’t Love: Although yesterday’s fog was stunning, I couldn’t see 25ft. in front of me so didn’t dare cross the street for my run. Cars going 45 mph + dense fog = a chance I am not willing to take.

Love: That the Caveman invited friends over tonight.

Don’t Love: I got less than 12 hours notice.

heartweights

Love: I finally gathered up the nerve to hit up the free weights at the gym this week.

Don’t love: 2 days later I still can’t lift my arms.

Love: When the dogs don’t poop on the floor overnight.

Don’t Love: When they decide to say hello to the garbage man and I have to chase them in my pink flannel, snowboarding bunny pjs. Thankfully no pic (that I know of) for that one.

Love: We are going away for spring break.

Don’t Love: The search for a non-frumparella swimsuit will need to commence soon.

What are you loving right now? Not so much? Where do you buy non-frumpy swimsuits?

    I love it when the dogs don’t poop on the floor too. And I hate shopping for swimsuits. That almost makes us twins doesn’t it?

    The sales are always better the day after. Yeah for free weights! Love them. Have them all over my house (and just not the little 3 pound ones I use for Pilates). I usually go for a tankini. Covered but not a one piece.

    Did you ask for a price adjustment? I always do that when I buy stuff and the price goes down within a week.

    And speaking of Athleta, best non-frumpy suits ever! I like that you can buy the tops and bottoms separate.

    You should go back to the store and have them adjust your sale to the new sale price. They’ll do that. you know.

    My husband does the same thing with guests…. we talk about having people over and he always thinks we should invite them tonight or tomorrow. I need more time!! Love the bunny pjs story… 🙂

    Athleta makes really nice bathing suits and as you know they are having a great sale right now(the extra 20% off ends today though).

    I love this post! It’s been ages since I’ve bought anything at Athleta, let alone workout clothes, period. Ugh. It’s time to get back on the horse!

    Laughing at the thought of you chasing the dogs in your pajamas as they were chasing the garbage men. Hahahahahaha

    I’m loving that we didn’t get a ton of snow at Christmas, so no one had travel issues. I’m not loving that it’s back to work time!

    I bought some really cute swimsuits on Victoria’s Secret online. You can’t try them on, but they have easy returns:)

    Oooh where are you going?! I wish we were going away somewhere, but it isn’t going to happen this year. Maybe next year!

    That photo is beautiful, the weather has been pretty crazy though this year!

marciashealthyslice I'm a working mom who, as part of a mid-life challenge, decided to run a marathon for kicks. I didn't plan on it becoming a hobby, but it did. I qualified for Boston at my second marathon and finished the 6 World Marathon Majors in London in 2019. Set no small goals. You never know what you're capable of until you try!
