I have a few hopes for this blog, but first, I'd like to start with a story about how the Blog got it's title. There are many things that provide inspiration for me, and a big one for me is (believe it or not) this blue backpack.
This backpack represents so much to me. It was the first big purchase I made on my own when I got to school. I saved the money and bought it. Since then, it has traveled with me through the best and worst days of school. Happy vacations, sad trips to say goodbye to friends and family, and many upon many marching band competitions. The bag is worn, but works hard, and is very reliable. When I started my "big girl" job, I put it away, and it seems that I put a lot of myself with it to. I seem to have lost a lot of my inspiration, my fire, and finding the joy in the littlest things throughout my day. Yesterday, I made a decision.
A decision to allow a very simple thing to inspire and push me once more.
I am starting this blog to share random thoughts and this inspiration journey with you. One, to keep me honest. On this journey, I would like to work on my fitness, and keeping you all updated with this keeps me very accountable. The goal: to work out 30 minutes a day at least 5 days a week. Nothing too crazy. I'm 155 pounds, and the goal would be 135/140. I am not in a huge hurry to reach this goal, but I am hoping to chip away at it. So, you all have a big job! ;)
I'd also like to share with you some great outfits, good recipes, and some fun stories. I want this to be a blog where you get to laugh and hopefully get a little inspiration from my stories, outfits, and recipes. Something fun to read for a little entertainment, and hopefully I can inspire you as much as your sheer presence of reading this inspires me.
I am happy to report that the outfit worn today (inspired by Pinterest) was a huge hit today, and I loved it. I'll have to get more pictures at a later date, and that I had a great day finished off by a great workout for 30 minutes and 1.82 miles. Also, keep coming back for the fun glasses saga that will be coming up quite soon.
I hope you all stick with me, and I promise to bring a little laughter and a little levity.
Until next time...
