++ I’m out in SC for the week visiting my bestie and her baby! Aside from my running, we’ve been going on walks every day. On Wednesday, we went downtown and did a 3 mile walk on a trail and it was absolutely gorgeous. However, while we were out, we found a suicidal goose. “I’ll jump I tell yah!. Just say something!”
++ I ran 4 miles for the first time on Tuesday, and I kind of thought I was going to die. It was also only my second run ever on a treadmill and I felt like a hamster! I definitely do better when I’m outside for some reason. But either way, I was proud of the 4 miler. Yes, I realize that’s not crazy far but for this homegirl who isn’t really a runner, it was a big deal 🙂
++ I downloaded Elizabeth Smart’s audiobook for my drive out here. It’s about a 4.5 hour drive, and the book has kept me pretty dang interested the whole time. I’m about halfway through it and will finish when I drive home. I’m always so interested in learning about how people cope when they’re held hostage. It’s terrifying, inspiring, and fascinating all at once. I’ll say this, people who survive that kind of stuff have a strength I’d never know.
++ I bought another Rimmel Provocalips because I’m that obsessed. This time I got I’ll call you. I haven’t had a chance to wear it yet because if I’m being honest, we haven’t worn real clothes or put makeup on all week. I mean, what do your girls’ weeks look like? #bums
++ The news this past week has been making me sick. This news story here is my cousin’s friends’ parents. As the results of the search were coming in, my heart just kept falling further into my stomach. There are sick, sick, SICK people in the world. (If you didn’t click on the link, the news story is about the couple who were murdered after putting an ad on craigslist for a car. The couple was my cousin’s friends’ parents). Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers. It’s hard to accept that this world isn’t all bad in these kinds of situations.

I'm so so so sorry to hear about that couple. How tragic. You're in Greenville, SC? Because if not, that picture looks identical to downtown Greenville. My sister lives there – such a cool place!
I've got to try the Rimmel Provocalips! I'm the same way, I am so bored after 1 mile on the treadmill, I only enjoy it outside really. I saw that story, just heartbreaking. Prayers for the family!
Ugh, that story just gives me the chills. So scary. The world can be a terrible place. But on a happier note, have fun in SC!!
Yay for running 4 miles, you are awesome!
I saw that story, so horrible!! Prayers for the family! Way to go on running 4 miles!! Have fun with your friend!
That story is just awful — it really scares me what some people are capable of! Hope you get to enjoy time with your friend! Save that goose!
4 miles is awesome! Way to go!
Elizabeth Smart's book is SO good.
I am so saddened by that story. How terrible this must be for the family.
oh I'm so sorry that you knew those people or their loved ones.. truly sickening 🙁
and you should be proud of running 4 miles – you go girl 🙂
Yay for being in SC! I love Falls Park! I haven't tried the Provocalips but will have to check it out! And good job for running 4 miles! That's awesome!
Dang lady, good job on the 4 miles! That's actually really impressive – I'm not much of a runner either and I certainly couldn't run that far.
That goose…dying laughing.
I read Elizabeth Smart's book…I think it took me like a day and a half to read it, I was so fascinated and couldn't put it down!!
Great job on your 4 miles! That IS a big deal!
You are so right about people who survive situations like Elizabeth Smart's. I agree, that's a level of strength that I doubt I could ever have.
I remember the day you were telling me as it was happening and I went home and told Chris that night that the world is just so sick and scary sometimes. 🙁
In other news, go you on the 4 miles!!! It is way more than I have ever/could ever run! And I hope you are having a great time in SC. Seriously, because you sort of ditched me on gchat and my week has been lonely, I am not going to lie!
Ugh, I saw that story on the news. I hate watching the news but it's like I can't help myself.
I'm glad you are getting to spend time with a friend though! And the weather looks beautiful.
I cannot believe the Craigslist thing. I feel AWFUL for that family.
I'm proud when I walk 2.5 miles. It's better than sitting on the couch. So be proud of your 4 miles!
OMG I heard of that thing on the news. WTH? So terrible. Totally keeping them in my thoughts. I never liked Craiglist. Ugh. Poor family. 🙁
And I'm a couch potato today…and I feel awful but, I am healthy and okay with that. Cannot be working out all the time, can I?!
I am so sorry to hear that about your cousin's friend's family. Awful, awful people. I hate running on the treadmill too! xo
4 miles is impressive to me! I think I could do about a mile right now :-p I'd be interested in reading Elizabeth Smart's book. That story always broke my heart…I researched it a lot at one point.
I need to go read the story now. I haven't heard 🙁
That story made me so sad– definitely thinking of your cousin and their friends during such a difficult time. I hope you have a great time in SC visiting with your friend! And YAY on 4 miles– that is amazing!
I really need to get my booty moving again…..I'm running this weekend. It is going to happen! I'm also buying a provocalips you have me convinced!
