I’m participating in Marvelous in My Monday this week from the sweet and kind Katie from Healthy Diva Eats! I love her positivity and hopefully I can share some of my own!
**********
Thanks for all of your kind words on Saturday’s post. I was definitely feeling off, but luckily felt better by the end of the night and made it through the work day. Sunday & Monday ended up being marvelous! 
Joe and I finally got to spend a Sunday together. He’s been working the past few so we decided to make a full day out of it, starting off how we typically do.
prosecco with muddled berries & agave, empty glass, pinot noir
Eventually, we got ready to head out. I wore a new high-low dress that I found at Forever 21 last week, and ended up belting it and throwing on gold sandals. Simple and comfortable, which I’m all about.
We attended a 3rd birthday party for our friend’s son, followed by some shopping.
We both got new Brooks running shoes, plus I threw in a matching SweatyBand because they were on the counter while we were checking out and I couldn’t resist. Then we went to the mall where Joe got some new summer clothes at the Bloomies pre-sale, including (as always) a random quote tee. He pretty much had to own this t-shirt.
Joe and I ended the day with dinner at Legal Seafoods. We ordered a few appetizers, a lobster roll, and wine.
I’m really craving that lobster roll again right now!

This morning started off with break-in and test run with the new Brooks (and SweatyBand!). I held an 8:40 pace which I was super excited about!
I LOVE the PureCadence! I feel like I’m running on a cloud. They offer stability for my high arch and are super comfy. Approved!
While sipping on a blueberry protein smoothie, I studied & made my grocery list for the week.
Shortly after, I got to work on some bookkeeping for the restaurant. So far, a productive (and marvelous) day, which totally makes up for how I felt on Saturday.
Alright, I’m off to make dinner.
- What was marvelous about your Monday (or weekend!)?

Happy to hear you a good Sunday and Monday!
Finding $17 running shorts made my otherwise crappy Monday pretty marvelous! They’re usually at least $30 around here so I’m super excited about these
I love finding good deals on workout clothes. That’s one thing I hate spending money on – I mean come on, I’m just going to sweat all over it!
That guac shirt is hilarious! Hooray for new shoes!
Hey I love your watch! Where did you get it from, cause i have been looking into buying one like that?
The Garmin? I actually ordered it on Amazon, you can usually find good deals on Garmin GPS watches on there.
You look so freaking gorgeous! Love the dress!
Thank you Lauren!
Lookin hot! Love that black dress and I’m obsessed with your beautiful long blonde hair : )
Aw thanks girl!
The high low dress is so cute on you! I am not sure I can quite pull the look off….
I love Brooks! They were the running shoes I got when I very first started out running and were soooo comfy. Mine weren’t as cute as yours though. Actually, mine were pretty darn ugly!!!
Thanks Suzanne! My older Brooks were not cute either, I’m glad that they had this style in the type of shoe I needed!
I love the DRESS! I love that style, I almost bought one at F21 but they did not have my size!
I am so glad you joined in! I miss you and hope I see you SOON! <3
Hope to see you soon, too, lady!
