'Yonce & LOVE

Yesterday was crappy.  My scheduled post didn't even go up as scheduled - that's how awful yesterday was.  I think I really just needed to work it out because after dinner was over and homework was finished, the girls and I turned on the Xbox and got our dance on.

After about 2 hours of dancing and laughing with my daughters, all the anxiety and worries I had throughout the day just disappeared.  I worked up a quite a sweat, but before jumping in the shower I downloaded Queen Bey's latest album and you can bet I walked out of that bathroom feeling like this:

I listened to that album all night - on shuffle and repeat - so this morning I woke up feeling like I could run the world.  And of course I played the album again while I was getting ready for work so my outfit today pretty much reflects that (photo to come later).

Anyway, so I'm pretty confident that karma is on my side today because my homegirls over at LOVE emailed me this morning with a ***Flawless deal:

 ***30% discount code applies to full-priced items only***

Oh no they didn't!  Oh, HELL YES, they did.  ANNND, (this is where it gets even better) I hopped on over to check out the new arrivals and check. this. shit. out.:

Are they on point, or what?!  ANNNNNNND, (get ready for it) this Yonce top is only £7.99!  Aww, yeahhhhhhh...

C'mon, do it with me.  You know you want to.  And, they've got a bunch of other cute stuff too (like this twerk top and this badass zipper jumpsuit that I'm pretty sure Queen Bey would rock like a diva.

I have a feeling that Mrs. Carter wasn't talking about Jay-Z when she recorded that song - she was talking about the crazy deals and items from LOVE.  Now go on and get Crazy In LOVE too.

Fitness Friday: Sometimes I Run

Hooray for another fitness Friday!  And if you're not into the fitness thing, then hooray because its just Friday (which is "hooray" worthy in itself)!

So as you may or may not know, I hate running.  I suck at it.

But...Sometimes I run.  Sometimes I hide, sometimes I'm scared of you.  But all I really want is to hold you tight...  Okay, you had to know that was coming.  And btw I was listening to 90's songs all last night so I've got Britney Spears songs going through my brain right now.

The only time I can run is when I'm in the mood and have my earphones in and playlist on.  What?  You want to talk to me while we're running?  Fuhgeddaboudit!  I don't need conversation, I need motivation!

That being said, I thought I'd share just a few of the songs that are on my workout playlist.  And it is no surprise my playlist title is "Werrrrrk".  So here they are, in no particular order because I like to shuffle, ball, change it up.  Yeah, sorry for the geeky dance reference.

Full in the Blanks

Yes, FULL.  I just got back from our office luncheon and I'm stuffed!  Kanak attack!  (fyi, Kanak Attack is that sleepy/lazy feeling you get after you eat too much)  So being that my eyes are drooping and my head is already resting in my hand, I've decided to link up and do another fill in the blank post!

1.  When I wake up in the morning, the first thing I do is figure out how much more time I have until I REALLY have to wake up .

2.   I can hardly wait for   our family vacation to California in October!  I just want to go shopping at all the awesome stores that we don't have here!

3.  The quickest way to my heart is   humor and food    because   I love to laugh and I LOVE to eat even more.

4. A little known fact about me is that    I hate to drive with Joey in the car.  Its wayyyy WAYYYYY worse than when I was learning to drive with my parents!

5. The best part about my job is    that I still get to blog, duh!  Lol.

6. Something I just couldn't live without is    mirrors.  I am constantly checking myself throughout the day.

7.  Something useful that I wish I knew how to do is  carpentry.  I want to be able to make my own furniture and other items.  You know, like the female hosts on the DIY and HGTV channels.

Btw, here's an awesome video for you guys.  Well mostly for me because I need to wake up!  Lol.  And btw, Jeni Suk is one of my FAAAAAAVORITE youtube artists!  She's absolutely amazeballs!  One day soon, I'll get the courage to post a video of myself singing.  One day...

 Well, that's it for today's post!  Hope you all have a Fantastic Friday and a Wonderful Weekend!  I will try my hardest to do a tutorial for Monday's makeup post AND I've also started drafting some other posts that I'm excited to share with you all as well, so stay tuned!
