october ultimate coffee date

October 1, 2021      21 Comments

I love it when the Fit Five Friday lines up with the Ultimate Coffee Date! It’s always fun to share new things with coffee and bloggy friends. Obviously, I’m having my coffee iced (I wouldn’t have it any other way)!

After reading here, head on over to visit Coco and Deborah, our awesome link-up hosts.

Over coffee, I would tell you…

That we actually celebrated National Coffee Day this week. You all know that I am a regular at my local Dunkin’ (its’s the closest coffee option by a long shot, with an incredible staff), but in honor of the day, I journeyed to one of our independent shops instead. I ordered an Aussie Iced from The Kookaburra (coffee, ice, vanilla and cream), and then checked out one of the new murals in town. I love public street art.

Over coffee, I would tell you…

That I am so excited to be part of the League of Garmin! I have been a dedicated Garmin user since I started running, so it feels only right to be part of the street team. Beat Yesterday!

Over coffee, I would tell you…

That I am in the Halloween spirit for sure! I am decorating with things I already have and with things I am currently making. I love creating, and Halloween is so fun for that sort of thing. I made this wreath with items bought from Dollar Tree, Walmart and Michaels, and it came in under $20, which is pretty cool.

Over coffee, I would tell you…

That I am also making my Halloween costume. A told me he would go as Stitch to my Lilo, but he changed his mind and wants to be Michael Myers instead (when did we go from adorable to terrifying???), so I am taking matters into my own hands. This coffee cup is part of the look, and I can’t wait to reveal the final!

Over coffee, I would tell you…

That I have four partnerships coming up, and I am so excited. I haven’t been actively working lately, as we navigated virtual school, then the return to real school, and all that came with it. While I can’t say that we are completely back to normal, I do need to find my own groove again, so here we are. I can’t wait to share the results here!

What would you share over coffee?

    What is the Garmin street team?? I haven’t heard of that.

    Excited to see what your new partnerships are!

    Good luck with that Halloween costume!

      league of Garmin is just a group of Garmin lovers who spread the love about the brand. Here’s a link to the application: https://www.garmin.com/en-US/blog/featured-2/league-of-garmin/

      I am excited about the Halloween costume! I hope it translates well!

    You are so crafty! I have never made a costume in my life. And A is certainly growing up.

    Congrats on League of Garmin. I should check it out but my readership is pretty small & my social media presence non existent . . . but I have been #teamgarmin since the beginning!

      My readership isn’t huge either, but I think that’s ok. Team Garmin all the way!

    mm. Basic Witch. When I get my Halloween shirt we’ll have to twin from afar.
    I love the Target junk aisle. Reminds me. Need to put up my witchy sign to be seen on Zoom.

    I’m feeling you on the partnerships! I just had a big one. I’d love for it to turn into something more, but it’s been a challenge to work with the brand.

    I always dress up like Wonder Woman on Halloween at work. Maybe i need to mix it up this year.

      I hate that it’s been hard to work with the brand 🙁

      Wonder Woman is a great option! And I’m sure your patients love it! My costumes are usually a little punny or irreverent. Last year I went as a Warrior RBG and the year before that I was a Deviled Egg.

    Oooh, I can’t wait to see your costume! I wish I were more artistic- Halloween definitely lends itself to creativity. I do like to decorate the house, inside and out!

    I did not go out for coffee on national coffee day, but I did brew an extra pot at home. 🙂 Congrats on your new partnerships. I think we all are trying to figure out what our new normal is.

      A whole pot absolutely counts!

      I thought things would get easier, but they’re just a different kind of weird and hard. I feel like I’m constantly trying to find the bright side and I don’t know how long that can continue.

    That wreath looks perfect for Halloween! I love browsing through Target for things I probably don’t need, hehehe.

    I am excited about your costume. Yes, now I can get into the Halloween spirit. I rarely dress up at school but in previous years I’ve work one of those cute witch hats from Michaels.

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.

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?!
