Seems like it's always Monday!

How is it already Monday again? I have been so absent the past week- sorry about that, but life was just too busy there for a little while. First off, thank you to everyone who wished me happy birthday. I had a very good day, and got plenty of nice gifts!

Here are the highlights.

Boden Dress:

IHome portable speaker case- this will be GREAT for the beach!:

Pink Sorbet gift card- can't wait to purchase some Lilly goodness!:

Another Boden dress (on backorder):

I also got stemless wine glasses, Itunes, running gear, and various other small things. Thanks, y'all!

In other news, we just finished up our busiest 2 days at work. We had our board meetings on Thursday and Friday, a dinner on Thursday evening, and our Alumni Awards on Friday evening. It was go, go, go and didn't lighten up for the weekend. On Saturday I got up at 6 and went and ran my first 5k. I finished in 34:55. Not great, but I'll take it for my first race! Halfway through I got a terrible pain in my side and had to stop and stretch it out, so I lost a little time there. However, if I hadn't stretched it out, I wouldn't have been able to keep going.

Here's a picture after we all finished:

Then after the race, we headed to Charleston for a stock the bar wedding shower we were throwing....stayed up way too late....and headed back to Columbia on Sunday for my friend Julie's birthday dinner. So, a very busy weekend, but a lot of fun. I am exhausted today, though, and feel like I have so much housework that needs to be done!

How was everyone else's weekend? I hope y'all did something fun!

Happy Monday!
