I wanted to start today with the Motivation in March quote because it’s so powerful; I hope it really speaks to all of you, but especially if you’re in need of that little boost today.
Moving on, I thought it’d be fun to share a few things tempting me this week…
-ALL the Coffee…
Apparently Thursday-Sunday Starbucks had a free Grande Iced coffee deal…I learned this Friday morning when I decided to spend my morning working from the ‘bux. Let’s just say I preceded to also make a stop for coffee Saturday and Sunday morning…not to mention the free afternoon coffee each day. π
-26.2…
I can’t even believe I’m saying this. I also can’t even believe that I entered myself into the lottery for the Chicago Marathon. They pick names April 14th and if you’re chosen you have until the 18th to confirm your registration and pay the $185(!!) fee. I’m undecided but so far I’ve received nothing but support from people about this which makes me even MORE tempted to do it if I’m picked…uh oh.
-Chocolate…
I’m not even kidding. I need all the chocolate. This has been going on for a few weeks but definitely worsened after my trip to Tulsa (where I ate ALL the chocolate). I’m trying to get my act together again because it doesn’t make me feel very good. At least if I want to indulge I should stick with the dark chocolate variety which is more likely to be dairy-free…yeaahhhh
-Shopping…
I tried on Saturday and thankfully (for my wallet’s sake, at least) I had no luck. Nothing was fitting the way it should and I left feeling rather discouraged but my money where it should be (in my bank account!). I thought about heading out again Sunday and hitting up a few other stores but instead stayed home to be productive. I consider this a good decision but the shopping bug is still biting…
-Cleaning…
Is that weird? But seriously, I spent Saturday afternoon cleaning my house and it felt amazing! With my roommate and her dog away for Spring Break, I wanted to start the week off with a super clean and organized house. With it just being me, it will be much easier to upkeep throughout the week and we all know I’m a happier person with a clean and organized home. Type A, much? π
What’s tempting you lately?

Free iced coffee?? I missed out on a gold mine!!
This entire list tempts me all the time! I am the exact same way too when Dave goes out of town…CLEAN ALL THE THINGS!! Our challenge with keeping things tidy is that we only have a 1 bedroom apartment and every time we go home to NE…Dave’s parents send more of his stuff back haha. Even though I tell them we don’t have room!
Probably every other month at Target I get a huge urge to shop. And I totally gave into that after the NASM test….but in my defense, workout gear is buy one get one half off right now!!
Thank you for the quote! Really needed it today.
It’s always chocolate for me. I ate half a bar of 75% dark chocolate last night and savored every last bite. No regrets. :]
ahhhhhh i love your home! how beautiful <3 i cannot wait to get into a home of my own!!!!!!!!!! and wow what a powerful quote <3
