Happy Friday!! What a week it has been down in Texas. I am coming to you from my igloo after surviving ALL of this winter storm craziness.. Happy to report I now have power so all is well in the world. I figure I would take this time to catch you up! Instead of my usual. Check me out next week for the normal regularly scheduled posts.
–Since we’ve last talked I actually spent some time in the sunshine state! That is right, your girl was on an actual vacation in Florida. I haven’t had a getaway in over a year! I took the time for some ultimate relaxation. Hanging with friends on a boat. Sipping adult beverages and such.
–I was scheduled to just do a long weekend but actually ended up getting stuck in Ft. Lauderdale! The storms in Dallas were so bad that my flight did not end up taking off until Tuesday. I arrived Tuesday evening to ice and snow and crazy conditions. My power went out and I lost water as well due to pipes bursting at my complex. Quite stressful.
–Work was also canceled most of the week and roads were crazy iced over. I definitely had wished I had stayed longer on my trip! Thankfully I did not have to deal with the worst of it all since I was away in Florida.
–Running this week also took a hiatus while I dealt with this mess. But so glad next week will be normal beautiful Texas weather. 50s and 60s. I considered this week a much needed break for the body.
–I did go out for a snowy run yesterday which was actually kind of fun and pleasant. Check out this little winter wonderland. I’ll be venturing out for more miles now that we are above freezing and the snow is melting.
For my friends in Texas dealing with this I hope you all are safe! We will be out of this soon.
Have a great weekend!
Share some tidbits with me! Let’s catch up.

I was wondering how you were coping in the Big Freeze we’ve been hearing about even over here in the UK. Glad to hear you had a break in Florida for at least some of the time.
Florida was absolutely incredible! 80 degrees and sunshine / Vitamin D daily!! It was a sweet escape for sure.
I wondered if you were without power when you didn’t post all week. Glad things are warming up around here. I went for a run in the snow yesterday. I love running in the snow!
haha I do not love it. But you do what you gotta do! Ready to be back to normal beautiful Texas mild winter weather!!
Talk about great vacation timing, Chelsea!
I’m glad you got your power again. Running in the snow is nice… if it’s only for a day or two, haha!
RIGHT!! Well yesterday it was 70 something degrees so all is well in the world now. I have my happy Texas temps back and roads to run. 🙂
