This post may contain affiliate links. Purchasing through them help support this website.

Happy Friday!  I am so excited for the weekend to be here.  You should see this running list I have going for our honeymoon…..it is an OCD persons dream.  I can’t wait to document everything so I can share it all when we get back.  It really is a dream trip and I know on the top of a lot of peoples list so I will definitely have all the ins and outs for you when we get back.  I also have a ton of fabulous guest bloggers while I am gone so make sure you stop by and give them love!  The Friday Favorites linkup will be rolling as well when I am gone.  Thank goodness for scheduled posts ability!  Let’s get right into it!

Weekend Dreaming

Favorite Song

I cannot get enough of this chill song.  I want to have it on a portable boom box like throwback style and just carry it around to set up on every rooftop that we sit overlooking all the beautiful water views in Greece with an adult bev.  You liked that picture I just painted?   I need a vacation.  Kygo “Firestone” ft Conrad Sewell.

Favorite Recipe

My cast iron pan has been put to good use!  Seared Ahi Tuna Poke Salad with Hula Ginger Vinaigrette and Wonton Crisps.  Full recipe here.

Favorite Workout

At home HITT workouts yes please.  If you don’t have a jump rope you can do jumping jacks or knee ups.

HIIT Workouts

Favorite Lust Piece

I mean it’s almost half off right now but still it’s a total splurge but wouldn’t it just be so perfect for the Summer?  Michael Kors Miranda tote check it here.

Favorite Funnies

Pretty much how I felt whenever I used to take a step class

awkward workout class gifs

 

What I have had a crazy day at work seeing patients and finally sit down to check emails

scared of the computer gifs

 

Trying to talk to a patient who is texting the entire time

don't worry I'll wait
That feeling when you actually have the time to do your hair and makeup for a night out

feeling hot

 

Finally.  My response to how quick can you get ready for happy hour?

    I totally get the texting thing! I work in customer service, and it always amazes me how rude people are being on the phone or texting and it’s like I’m inconveniencing them.

    PS. love the new blog design! I’ve been a little MIA from linking up, but I love it!

    SOOO excited for you!! i wish i had some santorini recommendations… just wander around and soak everything up! my husband and i usually plan a LOT when we travel but for that island we just relaxed and it was wonderful. the only thing i regret is we didnt get on a boat or go to the beach! it was warm but not quite that warm to lay out when we visited. xo jillian

    That Michael Kors tote has been on my wishlist forever. Half because it’s ‘named after me’, and half because it’s so fabulous. There’s a pink crocodile one that costs more than my first car, but I think I’ll have to wait a while for that one… Haha!

    Another great workout for sure! And yes to your HH meme. That was me for sure last night!
    Have a great weekend my dear!

    Saving that workout, I love doing HIIT workouts a few mornings during my week. Looks like a great one :)

  30. Meghan says

    May 8, 2015 at 11:51 AM

    As always, your funnies are absolutely on point! I’m especially feeling the email one! The idea of dealing with 50+ unread emails after being away from my desk all day, or in a coding rabbit hole just kills me inside. I cannot, CANNOT wait to read about your recaps to Greece! Traveling to Greece is on my life goal’s list, but living vicariously through you for a while will do for now.

    xoxo,
    Meghan

    Your weekly wrap ups never let a smile escape. I look forward to the laughs. I hope you have the best weekend! Girl, treat yourself to that bag! (;

    Ooo your trip is going to be fab, can’t wait to hear about it! That workout sounds so good, I’ve done something similar to the side-to-side plank jumps and they are brutal but you can totally feel every part of your abs engage! Enjoy your weekend! :)

    That purse is really pretty. I think that is exactly how i would feel during a step class too.

  36. Amanda says

    May 9, 2015 at 10:56 PM

    lmfao… I clicked to see the bag on the website and I thought “splurge” would mean a couple hundred…!

    May 10, 2015 at 11:02 AM

    Love all your GIFs, but especially the one about the hair and make-up! That tuna looks amazing. Have the best time in Greece, lady! xo
