Love Button List & Workout

by LCCotter on June 21, 2012

I am a liker, meaning, I like a lot of things on Facebook, instagram, etc. My fingers tend to take over and before I know, I’ve “liked” things that I really didn’t mean to “like.” I think it’s because LIKE them WAY too much. Therefore I am convinced, I am convinced we need to bring back the “LOVE” button. And not only on Facebook, but on instagram too. I promise to use it wisely and for only super special things!

So here’s my LOVE BUTTON LIST, full of super special things like….

Texas Sunsets

An overuse of Lululemon Pants (too petty? ha, never)

Special moments: My two loves in our new home.

Quality Food and Beverage: yes you all know I love my GTsKomucha and now I am hooked on Sarah’s Nutty Butter. I have  spoon by each flavor, ready to go! Thank you Sarah, these little jars won’t last long. Must get more!!

Friendsthat send you words of encouragement right when you need it.

Our old bed, out of storage and all set up! Yippee!

And finally, the return of Thirty Minute Thursday (TMT for short).

That’s it, for this week at least. Maybe I should make this a monthly topic, yes?

What’s your love button list this week?

Let me know if you try the workout!

I LOVE this and think the love button should definitely be added. I LOVE my healthy bite/iced coffee combo (and try to make it a daily occurrence!), I love my life, I love SUMMER weather, and I LOVE vacation (6 days and counting…). :-) Oh and I love YOU!

Laura @ Sprint 2 the Table June 21, 2012 at 2:09 pm

I am obsessed with Sarah’s nutty butters. Just ordered 3 more jars yesterday!

Are burpees with a hop like one-legged burpees? I love those.

Reply

LCCotter June 21, 2012 at 9:09 pm

and i have gone through 2 in 24 hrs. this is a good problem. haha the burpees are not one legged, more like a jump squat forward, then burpee, then turn around, jump squat hop back, burpee. make sense?

Reply

Kim K June 21, 2012 at 2:13 pm

ohhh my love button list contains my diane von furstenberg dress that i am wearing today – yellow and white and super summery! it also contains the glass of wine that is waiting for me after i SWIM tonight! also my central AC bc we are having record breaking temps in boston the last two days. last but not least – sleeping through the night without a bronchitis attack! hurray!

I do not like the facebook like button though, I think I’ve used it 4 times. I don’t actually go on fb at all anymore. No interest in it right now. That workout looks great! On my love list would need to be feeling better from this sickness! I can not get past this fatigue and sore throat, its awful!
