Week in Review
Wow! It's definitely been a while since I had a Friday Favorites! I am so happy to be back!
I have felt like this week has been the ramp up to December- making plans and lists and getting ready for a festive season. I am finished decorating my office and my parents and I are getting the house decorated too. I LOVE this time of year!
My week has been busy but in the best sense.
One of the things I've been making a conscious decision to do every day is to get up earlier than normal (4:33 AM!) and get my butt to the gym to walk for 40 minutes. I've been doing this for 3 weeks now and I can definitely tell a difference! I feel more energized during the day, I am able to accomplish more and I overall feel better.
I have also been making a conscious decision to buy myself flowers each week for my office. Not only do I love seeing them, it brightens up the office too. It's a nice way to remind myself, I can buy myself flowers.
Even though the end of November and December are my slower seasons, I have been busy from the minute I set foot in my office until I leave and I LOVE it. I think the gym in the morning has been playing a part in my productiveness and it's been great. I am hoping by the end of the year to catch up on all the little things that have been pushed aside.
I went out on errands two days this week after work to Christmas shop and this weekend, I'm going to evaluate everything I have and see if there is anything else I need to get.
The best part of this week, I've been feeling AMAZING. With the hiccup and hospital stay in the beginning of the month, I am so ready to enter into the last chapter of the month, feeling this good.

Looking Ahead
This is a busy weekend and the first official weekend in December!!! (I can't believe it!)
My parents and I are taking our Christmas card photos on Saturday and then on Sunday it's the Jingle Bells Run! Mrs. Claus (aka me) is so excited. This will be the last run of the year for me!
Beyond the weekend, it's the first round of Christmas parties, a follow up doctor's appointment and SANTA comes around on a firetruck on Friday night!
