So, this is what happens when I decide to take a night off of running. 3 margaritas later! The Jose Cuervo pre-mixed drinks are really good. They make a light one for those of us watching our calories. Music to my ears!
The cash hiding behind the glass is the cash that should have went in to my running stash (if I ran) but it is going to have to wait until tomorrow!!
Everyone needs to unwind sometimes, right? Especially after a full week of work. That’s what I thought so I rented “Trouble with the Curve” and decided to kick back in the chair and chill for the evening. The margarita thought came later!! 
This morning was the first morning in a looooong time that I woke up without any back pain!! Can you believe it? I couldn’t. I am amazed that after one visit to a chiropractor that I feel so much better. I had my second visit today. I don’t think that I realized just how bad that I felt in the morning until the pain was gone and I could hop out of bed (not that I ever hop in the morning!) without favoring one side over the other. Things are definitely looking up in 2013!!
I have a great weekend planned. I must say Happy Birthday to my niece, Sydnee, who turned 17 on Wednesday!! Doesn’t seem possible!! Ugh!! Must mean I am getting old!! The good news is that it means cake on Sunday!! Yeah!! I also have plans to meet my best friends from high school for dinner on Saturday so that is always a fun time.
The weekend weather for this area is going to be unseasonably warm (around the 60′s). The thought has crossed my mind that I should get outside sometime for a run but we will have to see. The Real Housewives of any city is calling my name on the DVR. I am such a treadmill addict!!!
It is only January and this is what I have found in my flower beds….
For real!?! This happened last year but not until the end of February and my poor daffodils didn’t last past March. I love warmer temps but not if they are going to screw up my pretty flowers!!
Ok, now 5 margaritas later, I should probably think about heading off to bed. I can’t wait to sleep in for the next 2 days. I just hope that it doesn’t get my back to hurting again!!
Any thoughts on a movie that I should rent for Saturday night?
I love redbox. I can’t wait to rent another movie for the weekend. Keep in mind that I am not a fan of scary movies!!

We are HUGE Redbox fans too. The closest one is at our Stop and Shop and we’ll go in just to rent a movie. Haven’t seen anything lately that I’ve really wanted to watch from it though.. The last movie we both agreed on was the new Adam Sandler movie, That’s My Boy. Freaking hilarious. And I am deff digging this weather too! Except it’s overcast now????? Sigh I guess it can’t be both ways.

I watched That’s My Boy last weekend. It was pretty funny! It was so nice to be able to get outside today and enjoy 60 degree weather in January. Hopefully we won’t pay for it later!!

We finally got around to seeing 21 Jump Street and it was hilarious if you haven’t see it. I’m so glad your back if finally feeling better – hooray!!!

I agree. 21 Jump Street was funny. I rented 5 year engagement. So far, so good.

What did you think of the movie? I really enjoyed it, but I also love baseball movies, and I extra love Clint Eastwood.

I really liked the movie. I was afraid something sad was going to happen at the end so I was really happy with it!!

We were at RedBox last night and my husband said, “I would never use this thing if it wasn’t for you!” LOL I love RedBox. I am glad your back is feeling better but def do everything your chiro tells you. I listen to every word my chiro says and I think that has resulted in speedy recoveries for me. She even comments now that I heal a lot faster than I use to, which is bad for her but good for me!

The chiropractor is doing me a world of good! I have waited too long to go.

i hope u’re having a wonderful weekend!! hmmm, i’ve been wanting to see Snow White and the Huntsmen and i think that’s on red box…if so, that’s my suggestion!

Thanks for the recommendation. I haven’t saw that movie yet. I ended up renting 5-Year Engagement. It was pretty good. Not fabulous though.

I’ve only used Red Box once but I enjoyed it. Enjoy Key West! I’ve been there twice and had a great time! Make sure you go to Margaritaville! They have the best strawberry daiquiris there!
Posted by runnerbydefault on January 15, 2013 at 11:03 pm
I will definitely try the daiquiri. I have never met a fruity alcoholic beverage that I didn’t like. Enjoy your trip too!!
