That's my bag baby!

Is today over yet?
Because this morning's 5 am swim feels like 4 days ago instead of earlier today. Today wasn't a bad day, just a very, very full day. Whew.

It started out with me bringing my new In Boxes to work. I've been wanting something cuter to put on my desk, cuter than the black plastic boxes I've been using forever. And of course, for a really cheap price. Found them at HomeGoods.
Surely work will look less menacing in these happy boxes! Now if only they were pink...
Ah, luv, HomeGoods. It's my second favorite place to wander around after Target. Annnddd it's right across the street. My ideal shopping Friday is Target, HomeGoods and then Hobby Lobby. Done.

You just never know what you'll find at any of those stores. Like, you know, this totes adorable insulated lunch box. I'm pretty sure that my food will actually taste better being toted around in this precious bag! Here is my afternoon snack that yes, arrived in my cutie patootie bag. I loooove Horizon chocolate milk. Y'all know it's my favorite recovery drink. But sometimes when I'm craving something sweet, I'll reach for the chocolate milk. A while back, Central Market had the individuals sizes on sale for $1. What a deal! I usually buy the big cartons and portion it out, but this sure is convenient on occasion. Tonight with my group, we ran 30 minutes with pick ups. We've got a pretty big group and they get kinda spread out. There was a lot of loud talking tonight trying to communicate when to pick it up and when to slow it down!

The countdown is on to my very first tri. Eek! What are YOU looking forward to???

  1. I love the new lunch bag!

    Morning workouts can be great, but they can also make the day feel a lot longer. Great job on the double workouts today!

  2. Love, love, love the lunch bag! Most definitely your lunch will taste better! =)

    I have a crush on Target, Hobby Lobby, Z-Gallerie, Barnes & Knoble, and H.E.B. It's probably wrong to have a crush on a grocery store, huh?!

    I'm looking forward to my new after work running program - it's a big deal for me to run so much during the week, but...alas...it's all in the name of my half!

  3. I must agree, a day wandering through Target is definitely a good one - especially since I have to travel out of the counrty to do it! Haven't been to Homegoods, but I'll keep my eye open for one...Like the desk stuff by the way...
