Kudos and Boos

Remember when I said I was going to blog more? Well, I've been a little busy so here we go with Kudos and Boos (short version cause I am tired)...

Kudos to David graduating! We went to LA this weekend to celebrate David's b-day and graduation this weekend! What a day! But who the heck cares, woohoo David!
Boos to the short lives of running shoes. They say every 3-6 months you're supposed to change them out, others say for however many days a week you wear them, that's how many times a year you're supposed to change them. Either way it's way too often for how expensive they are! But today I sucked it up and got a new pair - branching out of my typical brand and going for nike's - and boy I am going to wear them till they fall off my feet!

Kudos to Lisa getting a J-O-B. She got a job at Immaculate Heart summer school - and officially moves to Nonni's next weekend! Well, she moves to Nonni's for the next 2 months...and then TBD and who knows what will happen next! I think it's a good idea and a great next step!
Boos to the painfully long third installment of "Girl with the...fill in the blank" actually, in this case, it's "Girl who kicked the Hornet's Nest" now I was ALL about the first book - well from page 200 on - and the second was ok but left with a serious cliff hanger...not I am 200 pages in with what feels like a million to go. And it's official, this writer is obnoxiously meticulous with every detail. Just tell me the sky is blue and move on!

Kudos to another celebrity sighting! As we were walking out of the Americana on Friday night, Lisa told me to turn around and walk back to confirm the celeb she spotted - none other than Adam Scott from one of my favorite shows, Parks & Rec. At first I told Lisa to shut it, it wasn't him. Then after a confirmation from Sarah that it was, I had to go back for one last look and apologize. Woohoo!! We saw Adam Scott!
Boos to fast weekends and full weeks ahead. I don't want to go to work tomorrow! But I need to put my time off request in for San Clemente - Holler!!

I hope to blog more this week! maybe a farewell series to lisa moving out. I can't promise anything though.

Hello June!

Today is June 1st, so that means summer is finally here, a new set of goals commence and it's my dear compadre, Teresa's birthday!!!

So let's start on summer...it's about time. And I get to officially partake in one of my favorite past times - laying out in the sun all weekend. It usually takes me all summer to get a decent tan but oh well, I welcome the challenge. And what an enjoyable challenge it is - especially if it involves a sit-n-float.

As for new goals - that's right, I'm all about my monthly goals. So here we go (1) befriend the one thing I hate most on this planet (besides sea creatures and lizards) - Pushups (2) Blog more (3) start the JK movie review - more on that later (4) accessorize more (5) start watching Revenge (that's more for Teresa and Kate) and (6) Tweet (follow me@juliebonino). I hope to do some weekly checkins on this with my kudos and boos (aren't you stoked you read my blog? One of my goals last month was to start Downton Abbey so I knew what people were taking about and while I went in thinking I don't want to like this - BOY was I hooked. Another one of my goals was to quit Jersey Housewives cold turkey and I am happy to report I have succeeded. I only watched the first episode and hasn't seen an episode since. That's strength, pride and determination all wrapped into one goal.

And finally, June 1st is my girl Teresa's birthday! I have to give her a shout out (a huge perk of having a blog!) so HAPPY BIRTHDAY T! And to work towards a goal - I just tweeted about it (CHECK!). I am unstoppable!
