Sequins and Sea Breezes: Weekending

Weekending

Namastay in bed

Who else wishes they were still in bed right now? Please don't tell me I'm the only one! Even though this weekend was far more relaxed than last weekend I am struggling without having that extra day off. It probably doesn't help that I went to the gym this weekend for the first time in like 2 weeks so I'm super sore this morning. Ok, enough whining! Let's jump into my weekend recap (the one with all the food) with Biana and get this week started. 

Ok, technically I'm starting out this post with a picture from last Tuesday at my conference but I had to share my picture with Captain Morgan. The guy was hilarious and fun and I think I should totally be a pirate. Maybe in a future life? 


Ok moving on. Friday was my first work from home day. My "new work schedule" allows me to work from home two days a month to get caught up on everything completely uninterrupted and it allows me to not have to drive the hour in and home. I got SO Much done on Friday. It was amazing. I even manage to meet up with some former coworkers for lunch and pick their brain about a few people they used to work with that applied to my new coordinator position. 


Friday night we tried out a new pizza place with NY style pizza and it was SO good. I will definitely be ordering from them again soon. 


Saturday I was up bright and early, headed to the gym and then ran a few errands before the UCF game at noon. I made brunch and had mimosas for the game. Unfortunately Michigan crushed us but I'm glad we managed to at least score and we got paid a ton to go there so that definitely softened the blow of losing. 


The rest of the day Saturday was spent eating and watching more football. 

Sunday I got all my errands out of the way early so I could have the rest of the day to relax and watch yup, you guessed it. More football! We headed down to a local bar for the first round of games to watch my Bengals barely beat the Jets and unfortunately watch the Jags lose to Green Bay.


After the 1 pm games we headed home, made dinner and relaxed for the rest of the evening.

Hope everyone has a fantastic week!

  2. I wish I could work from home here and there. Sometimes I feel way more productive here than I do at work with constant interruptions, meetings, etc. Although for me, it's hard to do therapy with kids from my house lol. I'm glad the rest of the weekend was full of fun, and yes I wish I was still in bed right now. So badly!

  4. That pizza looks really good. I miss NY pizza SO much!!! Working from home sounds great too. We have half-days once a month but we can't use them on a Monday or a Friday. Boo to that. Just kidding haha. Anyway, glad that you had a fun weekend and have a great day today!

  11. Glad your work event went well. That is so great that you get to work from home twice a month. I didn't realize you had such a long commute, that is tough. The constant interruption when you are in office can be so distracting. Although, for me, it's the loud people. People love to talk outside my office and it drives me batty.

  18. I so wish I was still in bed! That's so nice you now have a work from option! I really think more companies should offer it. Look at how much stuff you got done which will only make you more productive when you're in the office. I always hear when people out of the NY area find a good NY style pizza, it's an amazing thing. Have a great week! Beautifully Candid

  27. It's almost as hard to be a Bengals fan as it is to be a UK fan. Sigh. We're going to a game next month and i'm excited! I'm so jealous that you get to work from home, even if it's two days a month! I think I'd get so much done, too. That's really a great idea. Hope you have a great week!

  28. I LOVE the idea of working from home a few times a month. We have the option, but it's more of a if you're sick/the weather is bad option. Happy Monday - though, I am totally with you on wishing I could have stayed in bed!

  34. That is awesome that you get at least a couple of days to work from home and your work conferences look awesome! Also, is that Sriracha bacon?!

  35. I work partly at home, and partly travel to a few physician offices throughout the week. It's a good balance, and you can totally tell when I am working from home, because that means I have time to comment on blogs ;) Looks like you had a fab (and tasty!) weekend.

  36. I love new pizza places- there's a new joint that just opened in my neighborhood and I foresee being there ALL THE TIME because it was SO yummy.

    And working from home is the best, right? I always get SO MUCH done!
