Running for Spinal Bifida

Today I had the pleasure of cheering for Mr. Gammon-Reese as he ran and pushed over 100lbs in the Bellingham bay half marathon.

Here are a few reasons why I would NOT want to run a half marathon…

1.     Do you know how long a half marathon is? 13.1094 mile of running!  Also you’re not even running to save your life; it’s just for fun!
2.     I would get so hot and tired after 13 miles of running by the last  .1094 miles I would probably just lay down.
3.     I smelt so many stinky people after the race, it was cray cray!

This was Mr. Gammon-Reese’s 2nd year doing the race. Why did he do it? To raise money for the Spinal Bifida Association, 2 of the 16 Reese children have Spinal Bifida and they proudly rode in their stroller as their dad pushed them.

If you would like to learn more about how you can donate to the Spinal Bifida Association. Check out the Gammon-Reese family blog.

The kids were really tired after all of the treats they ate during the race.

My Everyday Heart Attack

Almost everyday I have a mini heart attack because I can't find my cell phone in my purse.  

Can you relate?

I love purses, particularly Coach purses. I currently own nine Coaches’ but currently my daily Coach is a Kyra Nylon Signature Messenger Bag.

Beautiful, isn't it?

Why do I love it so much?  I can put everything in it! This is really good and can be really stressful at times. I did a quick analysis of what is exactly in my purse. Here we go…

1.     Mitchum deodorant. My friend introduced me to Mitchum about 1 year ago and I’m so glad she did it’s the best deodorant ever! It lasts for hours and leaves such a fresh feeling. 

2.     Medicine and supplements. Sadly my little coach medicine box cannot hold everything = ( I currently am addicted to Xyngular‘s IGNITE 8 day cleanse (ask me more about it) and GNC’s women’s active and “Be Hot” supplements.  

3.     My work badge and a hello kitty headband.

4.     Coach SOHO wallet.

5.     Coach Kisslock Coin Purse 

6.     Cell phone charger. You should always be ready and know where a plug-in is.

7.     M.A.C Bronzer with brush

8.     Rimmel lip gloss

9.     Jell-O cups, I love Jell-O but only strawberry or cherry. I have these in case I get hungry and there is no food in sight. I just realized I don’t have a spoon; I need to get a spoon in my purse ASAP. I like both Watermelon and Grape.

10.    New Whey liquid protein. It’s not the most D-lish but it makes me less hungry throughout             the day IF I drink it. Also, it has an amazing 42g of protein in one drink! Totally cray.

11.     Glasses and glasses case. Just in case my contacts take a turn for the worst.

12.     A nail file that I got for FREE from the doctor’s office.

13.     A Flip Camera because you never know what you might see.

14.     A plastic doggy bag. These have come in handy for so many other things besides picking up         dog shit.

15.     Fifty Shades of Darker, I’ve had the hardest time trying to find time to read it.

16.     My HTC One S cell phone.

So after going through this, half of this shit is useless! However, I’m paranoid and you never know what could happen during my everyday adventures.  

For example one time I saw a crazy gang fight downtown and filmed it all on my flip camera, honestly I don’t know what I would do if I didn’t have these items at my finger tips at all times.

So what do you have in your purse?
