one of THOSE days...

today started out to be this kind of day.
"blerg."
i accepted the day wasn't going to magically change on it's own. it would continue to be like this. and i could sit and sulk in all it's dreary glory or i could salvage it and transform it to simply wonderful.
so i picked up some fresh flowers.
{because i can't help but smile when i look over and see them!}

and i munched on some vegan chocolate goodness.
{i quickly realized that i wasn't going to make it through this day with out a form of chocolate}

blasted Michael Buble's JUST HAVEN'T MET YOU YET!
{why yes Michael, you haven't met me yet. but all in due time.}

and i danced to my classes.
{i couldn't help it. Michael makes me move and groove.}

busted out the sweet kicks.
{i can't help but walk with a little extra oomph.}

decided that maybe today was a skip-the-gym-and-don't-feel-guilty DAY!

watched UP.
cried.
and cried.
and cried.
{but was filled with hope and love all the same.}
also i realized how many chelseas there are.
SOLUTION:
changing my name to shellsea.

i hope your day is simply wonderful and delightfully magical.

  1. this sounds like a freaking awesome day. I'm slightly jealous. I think that Michael makes all of us swoon. however, it's probably more socially acceptable when you do it rather than me haha.

  11. YES! Dancing to fun music like a madwoman is pretty much the solution to all of life's problems... that and a glue gun. :)

  12. Chelsea.... my day started out horrible... I had tears in my eyes as I was walking to class, holding my green umbrella and listening to a not so happy message on my cell phone. I sulked in class but quickly decided to take matters in my own hands... some things are just out of my control, popped in a fun cd, sang on the way home and picked up frozen yogurt, and went on a walk with my friends and my hubby.. things slowly started to brighten up. I love your blog... its a ray of sunshine and I can't get enough of it!! xo

  16. I like your way of thinking, Shellsea :)
    But for real, this week hasn't been so great, and I think some fresh flowers would help a LOT.

    and I'm all with you on the Chelsea thing (Shellsea is actually how my grandmother says my name, haha)
    We should get Chelsea code names.

    Michael Buble!! love, right there.

  18. geeze you have so many comments; you're never going to see mine! i decided that i should probably wait and come to knoxville on a weekend that i'm not super slammed with reading to do and i'm also not going to be falling asleep (didn't get home til 2 last night against my will). no worries though! maybe not this upcoming weekend, but soon i'll be visiting.
