Spring can only get better...

My body decided to welcome Spring by having a bonfire... in my throat. This past weekend was spent either in my bed or on the couch. My immune system is normally as strong as Paul Bunyan and his blue ox. I guess it decided to take a day off. I am the worst sick patient. I am stubborn, pathetic, and just not a happy person. Luckily my dog, Duncan decided that I was tolerable and kept me company while I binged my way through 6 episodes of Unique Sweets on the Cooking Channel. [amazing show!!!]

"Feed a cold, starve a fever." How does the saying go?  For some reason I thought it would be a good idea to try and sweat out the fever. Dumb idea. I went to the gym for 45 minutes for a sad attempt to sweat out some toxins. I looked pathetic. It made me feel worse and did not work. 

^ emergen-c, nyquil knockoff, and EOS tangerine = best friends ^

^ along with every other person in the world, I also watched Frozen over the weekend. I also would like to add that 'Let it Go' has been played 68 times according to my itunes library. [no shame] ^ 

Bee's Favorites: MAY

May is officially over. Here are some of my favorite things from last month. 

Putting my whole itunes library on shuffle! It's one mood swing after another. I discover albums that I never have listened to before that somehow, through the magic of the public library ended up in my itunes. Broadway, folk, soundtracks, hard core rock, to worship music.... it's one big surprise when it's on shuffle!

Lush Blousey Shampoo: I didn't buy a full size of it because it is a little pricey for a shampoo. The sample they gave me was good for two washes. Let me tell you, my hair looked amazing after those two washes! Tons of shine and it kept my frizz under control. If I have $25 laying around taking up space I am going to buy a full pot of blousey. 

Emergen-C ElectroMix Packet: I heard about these from Olivia & Hannah of #myfitspiration. These are perfect for replacing missing electrolytes after a workout or when you're just feeling worn down. I mix it in with a bottle of water and drink it down. *The taste is similar to a sparkling lemon lime soda.

bright nails: I am loving having really bright nails since my skin is starting to get tan again. Essie Tart Deco and Forever 21 Neon Pink are great bright options for the start of summer!

 Boba! I have seen boba lattes but have never tried one. With the expert advice from some friends and google maps I found a boba latte place about 20 minutes away from my house. I got a punch card too, which means I will be back for more. (I got the oreo boba.)

#50MilesInMay: I really loved this challenge. My goal was to run 50 miles in May. I came 9 miles short of my goal. However I know I did at least walk/run/longboard/bike 50 miles in May. I am counting it as a success. Check out my other posts about the challenge!

Week One Update

Last Week Update

The Book of Esther: I have been reading about Esther lately and remembering what an extraordinary woman she was. I am inspired by her desire to save her people. She was so unselfish that she was willing to die if it saved her people. She knew who she was and never changed from that even though her life was at stake.
