i mustache you some questions

January 1, 2015      8 Comments

Mary Beth, my fellow ZOOMA Florida Ambassador, over at Tutus and Tennies, posted this little getting-to-know-you-better challenge, that she found via The Fit Foodie Mama. Since today, January 1, is going to be a light day, as we recover from staying up way too late and help Mr PugRunner celebrate his birthday, I decided to play along.

Untitled-640x640

 

 

Four names people call me other than my real name:

  • Mom
  • Jenn
  • J-Vo
  • I don’t think I have another one. People don’t seem to give me nicknames.

 

Four jobs I have held:

  • cashier at Michael’s
  • receptionist at an employment recruiting office
  • advertising manager for a shipping magazine
  • marketing director for a sporting event

 

Four movies I have watched more than once:

  • Gone With The Wind
  • Rudy
  • Star Wars
  • Steel Magnolias
  • *this question is kind of unfair because I love movies and watch tons of them repeatedly. It would be easier to pull four I HAVEN’T watched more than once.

 

Four books I would recommend:

  • She’s Come Undone – Wally Lamb
  • Les Miserables – Victor Hugo
  • The Book Thief – Marcus Zusak
  • Harry Potter series – JK Rowling
  • again, as an avid reader, it’s hard to stop at just four. Or even forty. But these are the four that came to my mind first.

 

Four places I have been:

  • Rome
  • Venice
  • Paris
  • London

 

Four things I don’t eat:

  • Runny eggs
  • Oranges
  • Jello
  • Most meats

 

Four of my favorite foods:

  • Sushi – a good spicy tuna roll goes a long way
  • Ice cream
  • Baked potatoes
  • Brie

 

Four TV shows I watch:

  • Game of Thrones
  • Gotham
  • The People’s Couch
  • Outlander
  • I really just don’t watch TV, so this list was actually hard to compile. It would be nice to be able to get into a show but so few hold my interest and I get distracted and never come back to them.  

 

Four things I am looking forward to in 2015:

  • Finishing my first marathon
  • Family vacation
  • A girls’ trip with my mom
  • Spending time with family and friends.

 

And there it is. If you’re reading this, go ahead and post your responses or on your own blog, and be sure to share with us some of your “fours” in the comments below.

Happy New Year!

    Fun lists! I think I started this one once and I got stuck on the nicknames. Maybe I’ll try again. Maybe I DO have nicknames that I don’t know about! LOL! Your favorite food list is so diverse!

      LOL! I really don’t have a lot of nicknames. I don’t know why.

      I love food. It’s hard to pick just four.

    I have heard Outlander is great. I’ll have to find a way to watch it, it isn’t on any of the channels I get.

      Amazing. The books are better, of course, but I do love the show to pieces. I don’t do any streaming or anything like that, so I have no idea how to watch stuff that isn’t in our DTV lineup.

    Oh I love this, and I hope you don’t mind, but I will use this theme for a blog post later this month.
    I couldn’t read she’s come undone. A friend recommended it, and I got about a 3rd of the way, and I was like “i just can’t invest anymore in this book, it’s just not doing it for me”. I do love harry potter though.
    Books can be a funny thing when it comes to recommendations.

      I don’t mind at all! The more the merrier!

      I think I was so amazed at how Wally Lamb wrote such a complex and true female character. I also really, really, really related to Dolores in a lot of ways, so I’m sure that helped. I love all his books and his writing style, though.

      With books, I tend to go for deeper, darker stories and writing quality and character development. I don’t usually enjoy the light, syrupy stuff, but go for the more uncomfortable literature. The longer the better, because I can tear through a book in hours.

Drinking in that sunshine for sure! It was a bea Drinking in that sunshine for sure! 

It was a beautiful morning that turned quickly into a beautiful day. Sundays are hard because they are immediately  followed by Mondays, and Mondays are hard.

Lots to catch up on this week! April is chock full of holidays, birthdays, days off, and events, so let’s get to it!

About this morning… I was up and out early to d About this morning…

I was up and out early to drive to Flagler Beach for the #Missionpossible5k.

It was a small, well organized event, with an easy-to-follow course (the last mile was almost exclusively an ocean view), with great shirts and swag.

I was really pleased with my performance, and even more pleased with this beach sunrise. I’ll share more on the #RunnersRundown on Wednesday, so stay tuned!

Where did you run or race this weekend?

#Running #streakingwiththecoolkids
Oh, hello long sleeves. I’m here for it. So goo Oh, hello long sleeves. I’m here for it.

So good to stretch the legs today. I was super sore after a @runsmartofficial cross training session last night, and needed to just get out there and let the fresh air work its magic.

What are you up to today? I really need to take a moment with my calendar and get some plans locked into place.

Check out those blue skies! I got to sleep in AND Check out those blue skies!

I got to sleep in AND take advantage of some cooler temps. It really didn’t warm up until my last mile and that was just fine.

I feel like this month and next are really just flying by. So much is going on, and I want so badly to enjoy it all, including the crisp, sunny days where we find them!

#Running #streakingwiththecoolkids
Kind of a meh day. I got in some walking miles and Kind of a meh day. I got in some walking miles and some balance and strength work through @runsmartofficial.

Tomorrow will be cooler and more productive for sure!

Happy Monday! I don’t know about you all, but y Happy Monday!

I don’t know about you all, but your girl is TIRED. It is so hard to roll out of bed some mornings. Ugh. 

I managed (finally) and banked six miles in some gross humidity. And now it’s time for some self care and then back to work.

Also. We have somehow acquired a pecan tree? Any tips on the growth and care of this would be greatly appreciated!

#Running #streakingwiththecoolkids
Sunday fun day! Just a short walk to start the da Sunday fun day!

Just a short walk to start the day and work out some stiffness. Some days, my ankle just doesn’t want to cooperate 🫤

I have been making graphics and content all day for a client, and now I’m about to do hair and makeup for a little event. Wheee! 

This week is going to be BUSY! There’s a lot of changes to the regular routines (nails, a digital learning day, after school and weekend programming) and I have a race on Saturday and bocce ball on Sunday! 

Who else is ready to dive in?!
