Oh, hi there

I'm a little ashamed it's been so long.  So much has happened, let's start with some quick pictures from the Cumberland trip.

Was such a great weekend.  I felt like summer had started, even though I still had two more days of school.  Then I went and saw Megan, attended Hilary's wedding, Josh and I attended an old friend's wedding, and I did this.

I was Miss Gloria Rasputin in "Bye Bye Birdie".  What, you don't see me?  I'm hidden under that huge blond wig :)  I absolutely had a blast doing it.

There was Josh's cousin's wedding reception (they got married in CA, we went straight to the reception from a performance!) and my trip to FL.  Panama City Beach was fabulous to me, it was nice to just do nothing for a while.

That pretty much sums up June... 4th of July weekend was of course busy too.  Party at our friends' house Sunday, complete with me learning how to shoot a gun.  Monday was a party at Josh's, which meant lots of time in the pool.  And yesterday we did a lot of NOTHING!  Watched some movies, caught up on TrueBlood, and worked on crocheting blankets.  I have 2 out of 3 done, so I'm pretty excited!

Now you're up to date again, and I'm going to try to do better!  Exercise log in a short bit.

Exercise Log 3

Not great, not terrible this week.  3 days in the water...
Wednesday: 40 laps, 29 minutes, broke to take my inhaler and forgot to time it :/
Thursday: 40 laps, 25 minutes
Friday: ONE MILE!  I'm very excited.  Took me 49 minutes, which is probably a long time, but I'm so excited I did it!

I finally feel like I'm making progress - now to keep with it, even when I'm exhausted!

Sponsored Post: Walgreens Brand Health & Wellness Product

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Walgreens for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

We are all looking for ways to save money.  When it comes to health care, costs can sometimes keep people from buying what they or their family need.  Walgreens is helping families with their Walgreens Brand Health & Wellness Products.  Did you know that they are pharmacist recommended, usually have the same ingredients as the national brand, and have a 100% satisfaction guarantee?  What do you have to lose?
I've taken Claritin D every day since high school.  Walgreens has an alternative: Wal-itin D Allergy Relief.  It has saved me around $15 a month since I made the switch.  It works exactly the same, but saves me quite a bit of money over the course of the year.  Why wouldn't I try the Walgreens Brand Health and Wellness Products after this experience?
