ATL Hold It Down

I've expressed before that I have an irrational, and yet very real, fear that I am ungrateful. And this past weekend, my fear skyrocketed with the culmination of three projects.

First, I completed my triathlon. I was blown away by how supportive my friends&family were - from texts to wall posts and everything in between, it felt so wonderful to know that people were supporting me during the race.
With the tri came the end of my campaign, one tri: one well for charity:water. Eee! I was so nervous to try to raise $2,500, and you all ended up donating more than $5,000. Instead of funding half of a well, we've funded an entire well for a village. A village will have water forever! Can you believe it!? I can't. I'm so so appreciative of your support, and when I started losing steam during the tri, I thought of all of those kids that walk miles&miles every day carrying buckets of water. And I knew I could do it for them. Thank you for motivating me!

And finally, Cheers for Children was Saturday night. I am so very grateful to everyone who attended! I was blown away by how supportive my friends were. To have you all there was absolutely amazing and I really, really appreciate you supporting the cause.

 
Whew. Quite a weekend. THANK YOU!

Oh my heart. It is so full.

This weekend was wonderfully happy and I felt so enveloped in love by the support of friends and family. I can't wait to give a full report tomorrow. But for now, a happy Monday to you all! I hope the weekend high carries you through the day.

PS: Is it seriously June 11? June is halfway over this week. What!? Where'd it go? Sheesh!

You guys. I failed.

Wednesday was National Running Day *and* National Froyo Day, and I missed them.

Those are two of my most favoritest things – like almost should have taken a day off work to celebrate them – and I just let them pass me by.

Sure, I went for a run, but I didn’t even wear an extra cute running outfit or listen to a new playlist.

Couple that with the fact that I didn’t eat any froyo, and I might as well not call myself Whitney. 

I think I am going to have to make up for it this weekend. If you need me, check Menchi’s. 

TGIF!

It's official. It's a beach day.

Here's the plan.

Let's skip work today. Everyone. All of us. And just go to the beach. We can get a big house. Or a small one. It doesn't matter.

We'll post up on the beach all day and then watch the sunset with a cocktail. We'll stay until Sunday and return to work refreshed and rejuvenated. It'll be great.

OK. See you there, then. Safe travels!
