happy thoughts, great day

Today is a great day. I'm kind of overwhelmed with my happy levels right now but this is a good thing. Well starting out this post...he's back home, woot!  I'm one happy girl. The entire time that he was gone I was extremely bored. I am happy to say that I am now busy again which is the reason I haven't posted in a couple days or had a chance to comment on everyone stuff as well. I'm going to do my best to play catch up with in the next couple days. 

Where do I start?

He's back home and that in itself can make an entire post of awesomeness. He came home and surprised me with a lion, a rose and a super cute card. My man spoils me completely but I am not complaining about that. He also got me a beautiful small wooden chest that I have been dreaming about having for a while now. It kind of reminds me of something a pirate would put treasure in. Let's just say its perfect. He got me some other little prizes while he was gone too. I love the little things that he gets because he knows exactly what kind of stuff I like and appreciate.

My treasure chest and lovely rose. I love this box.

I have a thing for shells c:

and sand....

My chest full of my bootay, gee I'm such a pirate people.

I am totally loving this time we get to spend together working out and such. I'm starting to take my love for it all back up. I feel more inspired every single day. The only this is now I wanted to kick it into full gear and see what I am capable of.

I'm thinking today about how happy I am with my life. It seems like 2011 is going to be a good year with lots of big things happening.  I'm getting kind of tired of living in Japan but so happy that I am with Jimmy. It's going to be great when we are in the states and I can't tell you how much we are both looking forward to that. I was talking about Ohio today with a couple people and I'm really glad to be out of the area being completely honest. I hear how things are, the weather and it makes me appreciate the opportunities that I have right now and the ones ahead of me. You guys, I am excited for the future but I'm so happy to be able to enjoy today as well which is important. 

In other news, received a blogger award while I was gone from the computer this week. I wanted to thank Dropped Stitches and also my friend Shareen. Check out there lovely blogs if you get the chance please.

I don't even know what else to say right now.
I'm kind in a really beautiful, happy place.
I'm going to step away from the computer & embrace this.

I hope you all find a piece of serenity today.

Amore,
Kelly Marie

I'm not good at naming my posts.

 Hello; I have decided that I am completely horrible at coming up with a title for all of my blog posts. Anyways, I slept in this morning way to long but when I got up I felt ready to get my run out of the way. Running today was pretty good and I came home then started a new video of P90x. I don't know if any of you have tried the P90x series before but it's really awesome and I would recommend it. 

Last night the internet decided that it wanted to crap out but thankfully it's fixed now. After about an hour of unplugging wires and then another hour of punching the wireless box, Jimmy came to my rescue. I tried to be productive since I didn't have the internet to keep me entertained soooo I made a vision board, yee! I'm really glad I made this.

 I kinda have a thing for Kim K. teehee ;] 

I saw the first signs of Spring here in Japan. Cherry Blossoms!!!! I woke up to these which is pretty great because this tree was bare. It's going to be really nice out here once the blossom festivals start up here. Also, my love child is going to get a lot of use too. I've been really excited to use the camera because I know the shots will look pretty.

isn't it so pretty? I can't wait until Jimmy's home so we can go on walks and take a lot of pictures. Boo, I miss him!

I ended with me putting on one of those clay masks that "reduce stress" and make your face pretty. The stress part of the mask didn't work when the water wasn't working for like 15 minutes and I thought I was going to have to go outside and hit the reset on the water box. Thankfully it started working and a really hot shower made me feel great. I made myself some dinner; simple spinach, mushrooms, sliced turkey parmesan and italian.

This picture doesn't do it justice at all because it looked way more fresh and was so delicious. nomm nomm.

Besides all of that nothing much is really going on here...It's seriously starting to get boring without Jimmy being here. I really wish that he could just come now. I'm going to get going so that I can work on school or something. I'll probably just end up sleeping though. Have a good day. Morning state siders, Night Japan!

Amore,

1. Where do you usually have your thermostat set at in the winter?

 I'm in Japan, we have weird heaters. We ended up buying an American kerosene heater.

2. What room do you tend to put off cleaning until last?

The kitchen I'd say...I hate doing dishes.

3. Do you like to clean with music on or off?

I'd rather have a movie on but if I had music I'd turn that on.

4. When do you take time to blog?

Normally when I should be doing other things.ha Or at night when my day is ending.

5. How much time do you spend looking at other blogs a week?

I roam around daily. I have my usual that I always stop at but other than that I look for something catchy to make me view. I like blogs with substance also.

Wednesday

Hello Wednesday, we meet again! Things are going good here.

Jimmy and I woke up early because he had late work tonight. We ran to base and I'm so pumped too say that I shaved a little over 4 minutes off my 2 and a half mile run. That's a pretty big deal for me today and its making me super motivated. I've been running almost everyday and it's starting to get a little easier for me. Another exciting thing is that we will be heading to the states soon! Although, we still don't have an official date for PCSing but it will be within the year. It's going to be weird to be in the states together but I'm so thankful we will be.

Since I've been sitting around I decided to do some edits from a trip to Tokyo and walks around town:

I saw these bird cages by a neighbors house. Loved them!

 

For some reason I feel like there isn't very much to talk about today. My mind if kind of all over the place. I'm trying to think of way to many things I wanna do and it's all getting punched together. Brain stew! I'm going to collect my thoughts and maybe work on other parts to the page. 

Stay well loves

Amore,
