I’m Going to the Beach

Happy June. I love June! June is the first official month of summer. It contains lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, our two year anniversary, a trip to the beach, lots of regular Friday evenings at the Artisan Market, trips to the farmer’s market and more time spent outside.

I put my Wear it Well Spring course on hold and have thought seriously about just doing a version live on the blog. It’s less pressure and time consuming that way.

And then I thought it might be fun to do a “getting ready for the beach” two week series on the blog. I’m not talking about getting bikini ready (I just made myself laugh, you?), but just prepped in the best possible ways. Picking out a swimsuit for your body-type, staying hydrated, packing, feet and nails, flying, beach attire…you get the point.

Even if you don’t have a trip to the beach planned I think it could be fun for everyone to get summer-fied?

I Was in a Wedding

This is the only photo that has popped up since the wedding on Saturday. That’s my handsome husband right there behind me. We had a good time dancing and sipping wine; it was a beautiful wedding.

I’m so ready for normal land around here. It feels good to have a big date that was looming behind us. Speech was written and tearfully given, dress fit, found a jacket, covered self in faux-tan spray, schedules were met, feet and nails were lady-fied.

I want to write more about being a “fat bridesmaid” as I think some of us have to deal with this at some. It’s a strange land to find yourself in. It all turns out fine, but not without worry and many self-conscious moments where you can feel completely and utterly like the ugliest duckling at the ball.

Not gonna lie, even though I’m self-employed I still get excited for the weekend. I feel energized and motivated. There are (usually) no looming deadlines, it’s just a nice couple of days to relax and work at my own pace. With that said, I would like to bottle this feeling up and spread it throughout the week.

I also know that dinner out with my husband will happen along with a trip to David’s Bridal to get a jacket for the wedding I’m going to be in, in two weeks. Two weeks! I have some wedding prep to do, such as feet + nails, self-tan (my legs are scary white), and exercise daily. I miss posting my food here, so I will do that as well. I joined myfitnesspal.com and can be found under the user name “lorriebee” for daily food updates.

I am pushing my Wear it Well Spring course back another week. But, this is the last week. It’s going to be awesome and I want it to be even better than my fall course.

Happy Weekend!
