Oh, Monday, we meet again.

I could have definitely used a “snow day” like the rest of Virginia is having right now, but Mother Nature didn’t feel the need to give Northern Virginia any snow. It was freakin’ freezing with a little, tiny bit of snow falling from the sky, but not nearly enough to even cause any damage or anything at all, and yet this snow ruined the only weekend plans I have had on my calendar for months…

Not bitter…

Well, a little bitter.

My fun filled weekend turned into a relaxing, Gilmore Girl marathoning two days! So, Snow, you may have ruined my weekend plans, but you certainly did not ruin my weekend!

Let me just mention Emma Stone and Meryl Streep, holy cow. What an incredible reason to wake up in the morning and work harder than you ever have before. These two woman blew me away last night with their humble and inspirational speeches. Hope and creativity, hope and creativity.  You can do so much in this world with hope, creativity, and the will to get back up.

Have you ever had those moments where you have everything on your mind? From what you need to do, to what are you are doing wrong, to what do you need to change, to everything in between? I could just be crazy, too. Totally a thing. I have these moments sometimes where my mind flies in ten million different directions, but no direction is an actual step to making something happen. I know, I’m talking crazy talk, but if you do understand where I am coming from, let me know how you gather all of your thoughts and put them into action! That’s a huge goal of mine in 2017:  place my thoughts down on a piece of paper and put them into action. I want to no longer live a life where I am constantly on repeat, but a life that has more thought behind my actions, more intention, more positivity.

As always, lessons learned/events that transpired over the past week:

• Today starts a 12 week workout plan for me… Wish me luck!! It’s time to get in the grind. 5 more months until the big day!!
• Wedding planning is going SO well!! Everything is falling into place! I still have a few months, but I’m really happy!!
• After watching the Golden Globes last night, I think it is very obvious that everyone needs to go see LaLa Land!
• I listen to La La Land’s soundtrack at least once every day, if that says anything about the movie!
• My two HUGE projects are finally coming together. Goal: everything will be done by the end of January!!
• Christmas is lasting a little bit longer in our household, and we absolutely love it! Judge us, if you must, but we are not ready to take don’t the twinkly lights!!

Well there is a whole lot of random thoughts and events for ya on this Monday morning!! Stay warm and have an incredible day! Stay tuned for this stunning Early Mountain Vineyard wedding that I second shot with Audrey on NYE!!
