Thursday Thoughts

I'm a sucker for a good link up. When I was first establishing my blog and getting into a flow, link ups helped me form structure and meet so many new bloggers. I can never resist them. Bloggy besties are made through linkys! I think Thursday Thoughts are supposed to be one liners so I'll have to work on that... y'all know I'm long winded...

Let's hang out with Meagan today for Thursday Thoughts.
Beautiful Things
 
 

I loved the Parks and Rec finale on Tuesday night! Pawnee forever!
 
I believe I'm turning soft in my old age. The Parks and Rec finale really brought this fact to my attention. I have never been a fan of overly happy endings in books or movies. It just never seemed like real life to me. I loved an open ended finale or even a plot twist that knocked my socks off (I'm looking at you, Gone Girl). But my sappy little self was just crying along with all the happy endings in Parks and Rec. It's official I'm losing my edge...

I struggle with body image. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that WE ALL do. I loved this read this week - My Boyfriend Loves Fat Women. 
 
Sunday I'm flying out to Florida for a work trip. Even though I see rain in the forecast, I'm confident the sun will show her pretty face. I need some Vitamin D in my life.
From my November 2014 work trip to Sandestin
I lost my one of my favorite Alex & Ani bracelets a couple weeks ago at Winter Jam. I keep hoping it will find it's way back to me. Sad face.
 
Wanna know what else I struggle with? Being judgey. Oh you mean it DOES count if I say "I'm not trying to be mean" before the nasty comment? Oops. I'm a recovering mean girl and I still find that my sharp tongue can rule the day if I'm not careful. This is an awesome read about perspective.

I got 5 inches of snow at my house after midnight last night. Woke up for the 4th time in two weeks to this beautiful sight. I really love the snow. (spoken like a true southerner, I know)

Happy Friday Eve!!

Have so much fun in florida, lady! It's so nice being warm!!!!!

I wasn't usually a mean girl, but I've become a bit of cynic and just say what I feel. I need to get better!

Snow day here too! And I was in florida last weekend so I'm missing the sun for sure! Have a great trip!

Haha, I love the fact that you love snow. As a Northeasterner, we get jaded way early with the snow, and by now are completely over it. Your perspective is so refreshing! I hope the sun shines for you during your trip!

I want to come visit your houuuuuusssseeeeeee!!!! I'm the same way with the sharp tongue sometimes. It's awful, but at least we notice it and maybe that means we can fix it?

I hope you're having a great weekend!

Dang I want to go to Florida, I'm jealous!

After all the snow we have gotten I would love a trip to Florida! Enjoy it even if it is for work.

Myra said...

A recovering mean girl?! Hah! I guess I might fall into that category considering my snarky comments now and again, lol! I keep hearing how good Parks & Rec is, but I've never watched it. Seems like I've got another show to add to my list!
