Coffee Talk! 14 Things .....

Coffee Talk Time!!! Let's have some weirdness FUN today!! 14 things you may or MAY NOT know about me....you ready?! Let's do this!!


1. I am a TOTAL romantic! I LOVE planning date nights whether it's at home or going out somewhere.

2. I lived 11 years in Florida, 6 years in Arizona and am currently back in PA. (yes, I DESPISE the cold & snow, that is all)

3. I have had an array of jobs that I think have really helped make me a well rounded person ~


  • Marketing Assistant
  • Interior Design Assistant (hellllloooo, this could be why I HEART HGTV so much!)
  • Preschool Classroom Aide
  • A Curves Fitness Coach
   Sit down for this last one......WAIT for it:

  • Lowes Home Store in the Flooring Department!!! (are you having a hard time picturing PRISSY me at Lowes in the red vest?! ;) LOL, no worries I did too!!! Actually I really enjoyed that job, met some great people and it took me back to my design roots, which I LOVED! It also was the trigger to help get me OUT of the house after moving back to PA and being completely depressed.
4. I have high blood pressure (I know, I know, I don't fit the mold for that either, but hell would you expect anything less from me at this point) High to the point that the Dr told me if I wasn't doing what I'm doing eating & fitness wise I would be a walking Stroke! What the?! (so that is one of my BIG reasons that I started this healthy lifestyle journey and am grateful every single day for it)

5. I have never EVER smoked a day in my life! I joke that I wouldn't even know what to do with one and I'm at peace with it! LOL! I don't feel like I "missed" out on trying anything and I see how hard it is for people to quit so I'm actually happy that is something I never started.

6. I adore WINE! (go ahead roll your eyes!) The HUGE misconception everyone has however is that I drink A LOT!!! Um, I'm ALL talk and no ACTION! I enjoy a nice glass of wine with a good dinner or while I am watching one of my guilty pleasure shows but it very RARELY goes past ONE single glass! I'm a light weight my loves, sorry to disappoint!

7.  I have an AH-MAZING 15 year old daughter who is seriously like my mini bestie. I couldn't imagine my life without her. (this of course doesn't mean we don't have the trials and tribulations of the teen years, but I know I got pretty lucky with her)

8. I have the sweetest, most compassionate 11 year old son. Every day I think how he is going to be an amazing husband for some lucky lady some day!

9. I DESPISE sneakers OR tennis shoes (depending on which coast you live on) I know, I get it, this is NOT normal for someone who is into fitness.

10. I workout barefoot most of the time because of the above ^ reason! (told you things would get weird)

11. I am a complete, total GIRLY GIRL!!!! Sparkle everything...YES, Please!

12. My dream is go to go to Italy with my camera and just enjoy it all while sipping on good wine.

13. I started trying to relax more and make my office space very ZEN and I am totally DIGGING it!!
     ~hello coloring books for meditation
     ~essential oils
     ~himalayan salt lamp
   

14. I definitely suffer from social anxiety disorder. If we are in a setting with a large group of people that I don't know or even just going to a busy restaurant or bar I will NOT be the first to walk in. Let that be your warning if we ever dine together....you are walking in first and if we have to find our own table FORGET it...I will break out into a FULL sweat!!! I think this is why I LOVE being a photographer because I can HIDE behind my camera!!!

Ok, those are all the secrets I could share with you today!!!! I don't want to completely BORE you to death!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you for sticking with me! Love you all!!! XO

Slap it high! High five. I never would have guessed that we both had the social anxiety thing going on. You exude confidence. You handle it so well. Another reason you're awesome!!!
