Friday Things: To Be Happy About

Goodreads iPhone app!

Y’all should know by now that I love Goodreads. I’ve been dying for an app for a long time, and it’s finally here. Now I can post updates of my reading progress, browse books, add to my “to read” list, and read reviews from anywhere! More info here.

Nintendo enthusiast!

The lovely people at Brand About Town have chosen me to share my love for Nintendo. I’ve got a Wii and a Wii Fit Plus on the way, which will be perfect for helping me ease back into exercising after all these health setbacks. My new triathlon goal date is August, and there will certainly be some 100+ degree days where I won’t want to go outside to run. I’m so excited. (Not to mention, I’m still intent on conquering Mario Galaxy one day….)

Pedicure tomorrow!

Although what I really need is entire weekend in the spa, this will have to do. I haven’t splurged on a pedicure in way too long, considering they are one of life’s greatest pleasures–especially when done at my favorite salon & spa.

More time off!

Even though I’ve taken a lot of time off work lately, it hasn’t been fun. I was supposed to work late today, but because of a drop in our census I’m not needed and I get to go home and enjoy the weather. I also have this weekend off, and I’m hoping that it will be just the thing to lift my spirits.

Here’s to happiness. :)

    Yay for us both working with Nintendo! I am so excited!

    And Good Reads app means maybe I’ll use it more :) Thanks for the heads up.

    I love your ability to be positive in the face of all you’re dealing with. You’re in my thoughts and prayers. Enjoy your weekend and your pedicure!

    I followed your link of salon & spa and after reading a little about this place, I’ve made an appointment for next Tuesday to get my hair cut. I’ve been trying to find a place for several months now and hopefully this will work out! Thanks for the “referral”!

    I love the new Goodreads app as well, but I completely forgot I linked my twitter, Facebook, and Goodreads accounts and I totally just spammed my Facebook news feed. Oh well!

    And how do you end up the Nintendo enthusiast when I’m the video game nerd in the family?

    All awesome reasons to be happy! (love the new look on the blog too). So jealous you’re a brand enthusiast! how awesome is that!!!? Can’t wait to hear about the triathalon training. Sounds amazing. I’m also incredibly in awe of you cause I don’t think i could handle something like that!

    pedicures = one of my favorite things. ever.

    Just so Scott knows, I was playing Video Games when he was just a twinkle in Bill’s eye.

      Fair enough, but that just means it should be you, then me. How did Kathleen sneak in ahead of both of us?
