10 on Tuesday (Dear Monday style)

Haven't linked up with anybody in a while considering the past two weeks have been devoted to the 15 Day Challenge! Thus, I'm dedicating this post to Lin and Megan who host 10 on Tuesday and Dear Monday!

[1] Dear Syndal, I know this is long overdue, but I totally owe you a public thank you for your amazing swap package you sent me. Not only did you go above and beyond, but I feel like you totally "get" me  (the coffee cup is currently sitting next to me filled with Keurig love, I'm wearing the nail polish on my toes, the paper straws are divine, and seriously you just knocked it out of the park). Thank you, thank you, thank you!
[Included: Jonathan Adler ceramic coffee tumbler, sweet card, owl stickers, 2 "run happy" stickers," blank notecards, a to-do notepad, cute paper straws, and a set of her wedding invitations I designed.] 

[2] Dear M, You surprised the heck out of me when I saw the return address from the package you sent. One, I don't know anybody who is currently living in Canada, and two, I wasn't expecting a package! After you heard that my Favorite Things package got returned to the original sender, I was so surprised that you were willing to shoot off a little lovin' to someone you don't even know. Thank you so much! You. Are. Awesome.

[3] Dear Jess, Wooooohooooo! You're engaged! I cannot wait for you to come back, tell us the story of the proposal, and celebrate. So excited for you.

[4] Dear Life, Although I'm super excited for Jess (seriously, nobody deserves happiness more than her), I'm also in one of those weird nobody will ever love me and want to spend the rest of their life with me moods because I'm 26, single, and living in Waco, TX where everybody is 18-22. Whatever, I'll be a doctor when I'm 27. #endrant

[5] Dear Megan, Your BearCycle class rocks. I never thought I'd actually like cycling (especially on a stationary bike where you "bike" 17 miles but don't actually go anywhere), but you're so darn motivating that you make it fun! Seriously, never change.

[6] Dear Gym, We've become besties for the past week and a half when I realized my backside was getting entirely too large. You haven't been so kind to me, but I like that. Keep it up.

[7] Dear Diet Coke, I don't care what "they" say, I will never give you up. Besties for life.

[8] Dear Brown family, Swimming and s'mores with you last weekend was amazing. Seriously, there's something awesome about drinking a bellini poolside at 9PM that makes life grand. Your friendship is greatly appreciated! 

[9] Dear Fro-Yo, You're going to be necessary this week, I can feel it. 

[10] Dear Blogger Friends, Don't forget to enter the awesome Shabby Apple $50 gift card giveaway! It's super easy to enter; you don't even have to follow if you don't want to!

Happy Tuesday, friends! What are you thinkin' today?

"Whatever, I'll be a doctor when I'm 27" hahahaha Amen Sister!!!!
If it makes you feel better, I always joke with Pete about his crush on you. He denies it, but he talks about you aaaaall the time. I should be annoyed, but I can't say I blame him-you're awesome, and you're going to be a doctor when you're 27!

SO glad you liked the package :) You deserve it friend! And, you deserve someone who isn't going to up & leave you after being the supportive and amazing girl you are, and then ignore you afterwards. I just know you're meant for happiness.

The Vintage Modern Wife said...

i love this post and all the fun goodies you got! :) ps what shade is that nail polish? i feel like i need it :)

Obviously Obsessed said...

Love! Diet Coke and I have an undercover love affair that not a whole lot of people know about (until now I guess). HAHA!
And I agree with you on the Fro-Yo! I have a Pinkberry right next to where I work and I haven't been in a really long time and I think this week, before vacation, is the perfect time!!

xoxo Amber

Kate said...

If it makes you feel any better, I've been with Michael for almost 2 years now. And my mom told me a few days ago that I would never end up moving out of the house I'm renting because I'm never going to get married. Thanks for the vote of confidence, Mom. haha!

Katie said...

FroYo is ALWAYS necessary in my book!

Please motivate me to work out like you lol. I love to workout, but lately the couch has just been like "Katie, you need me right now." Who am I to fight these things?

Also, I truly believe there is an amazing man who is as selfless as you out there for you! I mean, if I was a dude I would totally date you. I'm sure that helps ;)

Alyssa said...

I want to do a fun blog swap like that. SO cute.

Also-if you ever say that you're not going to find anyone, I'm going to come down to Waco, find you, and there will be a throw down. Because you're ridiculous.

And then we would go for coffee.

Amy said...

i love blog swaps...and i hate the gym. i made myself go last night...so i know your pain! proud of you for keeping up! :)

Lauren said...

there is someone out there for you. you deserve someone very special and who will appreciate you for all the wonderful things you are!!!!!

Mama Bear said...

OK, ladies, Sarah has thrown the challenge flag! All you Wacoans, don't you know a nice single, handsome, funny, independently wealthy young man to introduce to my daughter? And the rest of you, she occasionally visits Washington, too, and is not too proud to be set up! (I might have set her up once or twice myself) And her mother will be eternally grateful :)

Lin said...

1. Absolutely adorable swap package. I love that coffee cup!
2. That was so very sweet of her. She really is pretty awesome.
3. Congratulation Jess!
4. You're so funny. You probably have guys falling all over themselves for you (honestly, how could you not? You're gorgeous) they just dont say anything cause theyre intimidated. You know, cause you're gonna be a doctor & all haha.
5. I think I'd pass out if I tried this.
6. That damn gym. It's all about 'tough love' with it.
7. My thoughts exactly. However my love is for Dr. Pepper...yum!
8. Wowza. Any chance they're looking for new friends?
9. Yum!
10. Seriously peeps, enter. It's a fabulous giveaway.

Thanks for linking up hon, I loved your 10!

Claire said...

If it makes you feel any better, I have always felt the same way...that I will never find someone who will love me....

But, as you may well know by now, I am getting married this December.

Besides, you're much too pretty and too awesome not to be able to find a guy who would think you're all these and more!

And then again....we all love you!

Melissa said...

So glad i found your blog. You are too cute! Also, i want that mug Syndal sent you. :)

I thought the same thing at 27, and I didn't even have that doctor thing to say! I mean...that's pretty awesome! :) By 29, though, I had fallen in love with THE ONE! It happens quickly! :)

ArmyWifeLiz said...

Just FYI Ms. Sarah, I was 26 and single And stuck in Waco 3 years ago and it did, in fact, turn out ok... And I'm not even a Dr! ;) Love you, Bestie! Looking forward to Jimmie Friday! It's been a hell of a week already (Spoiler Alert: Driving a Momvan while my truck is in the shop after an accident on Monday--yup, that's how this week is going lol).

Meredith said...

A bellini poolside at 9pm? That sounds AMAZING!

Also, isn't the gym such a love/hate thing?!

Danielle said...

Wow, those packages look like so much fun! You got a lot of goodies!! And I agree, I don't care what "they" say - I can't live without my Diet Coke!! Glad I'm not alone! ;)

Fit With Flash said...

Dr at 27. High five, sister! : )

Victoria said...

1,2,&3 are awesome...You are not alone on the rest either though! You had me laughing as I read your take on things.

Holly said...

These cracked me up :) I love the line about you being a doctor at 27. If a man can't love that about you then he's totally not good enough for you!! You'll find the right one when you're ready :) But I definitely feel ya in the funk...
