Cashing In.

Yesterday was spent cashing in in all kinds of ways!

First, I didn't work out! I "cashed in" my day off finally. I ended up working out every day last week, just because I had a low key weekend and had all kinds of time, so I had no excuse.

I had an interview at 8AM to start off my day. There was no messing around this morning, not even to sweat a bit!

Finley and I had a coupon for a FREE day of Puppy Playground daycare that we needed to cash in, and after I didn't feel so hot about my interview and the rain started, I knew today was the day that I needed to get him out of the house and wear him out!


Nervous for his first day of school (tear)!!

WHOA doggy!

Puppy Playground was an AWESOME place and I would suggest it to anyone looking for some dawgs/dogs for their dog to hang out with all day while you're at work. What a great idea. Seriously. I want that job.

Buttttt…..

Guess what????? I have a different job. I got word in the afternoon that all of my hard work searching and interviewing and giving my 30 second elevator pitch 10 million times finally PAID OFF!!! Cashing in again.

I FINALLY ACCEPTED A JOB OFFER!!!!!

I am no longer a stay at home mom/"full-time" blogger, folks. The working life begins again (bittersweet).

I accepted a great position as an account executive/mobile marketing consultant at a marketing firm in the area. I am sooo excited about this opportunity!!!

And the best part (besides the laid back "jeans friendly" office atmosphere, the generous compensation, the normal business hours) is no more red and khaki! Oh my.



You mean I get to wear whatever colors I want to work?!?!?! SHWHAT?! AMAZEBALLS.

I will make my best attempt to keep blogging, but of course my company probably pays a bit better than you guys do, so I have to put my job and the Pacers first… I apologize in advance if my posts are few and far between, but please know that I am making my best effort! Don't yell at me.

Anyway… in the afternoon, I cashed in on my bank account (what little there was to cash in) and went shopping with my sister! Forever 21 is always the death of me, and this time was no different.

Oops…

I "cashed in" on a free facial as well! The partnership the Pacemates have with Salon 01 is incredible and we each were treated to a pre-season facial (that sounded really bad…I promise it's not like that) on the house! It was an hour long, and I felt like a new woman afterwards. I also got my hair cut and colored again for the upcoming photo shoot this Sunday!

After I got mah herr did… I grabbed some dinner


Turkey and hummus wrap with raw veggies!

and then straight to practice to rehearse the dances before practice actually started. The dances are all starting to run together a bit and it's getting harder and harder to keep them straight and remember what moves go where.

Practice started by watching videos of some of the dances we're going to do this year, and it made me SO excited. They are good you guys. You need to come to some games to watch! Let's just say the one we're doing on opening night will be entertaining!

I ran to my friend's house after practice to pick up some potential outfits for the photo shoot on Sunday, then went home and crashed!

Today, there was not much to report on…

Protein pancakes with figs



BodyPump

Killed my quads this morning!

Lunch in true Brittany fashion- healthful and weird Trader Joe's Eggplant and Zucchini with mozzarella balls…


Eyeball Doctor
See! I still support the red and khaki.

Apple/Yogurt snack

Congratulatory rose from Justin, he's still got it folks :) Cashing in!

Like that it's in a Guinness glass? Pretty accurate for our relationship. 


Celebratory glass of wine with my sister



"Yay I got a job" drinks and dinner with Justin. We sat outside at 10-01. Listened to the yazz flute. And gazed lovingly into each other's eyes. ;)

I had a cucumber fizz cocktail (Cucumber vodka, St. Germaine, Lime, and Soda)

As well as they're amazing corn chowder and this Cilantro Steak salad! Pretty decent, although I prefer the pear salad I had here before.

WHAT a day. Phew.

Bed time!!!!!
