1. Guess who is a huge space cadet?

This girl. I am. And I feel like a great big jerk.
I’m really sorry… I totally tried to quickly write up Monday’s post, failing to correctly set the random.org parameters to select a Sharkies giveaway winner. Sam was the sweetest person alive after I explained apologized profusely, and she will be getting some Sharkies samples in the mail to make up for my mistake (thank you time a thousand to Lauren at Sharkies for coming to the rescue)! I’ll be making it up to sweet Sammy in the future, cause she’s a dollface.
So, I need to give the other 289 entries a fair chance to win.


It looks as if it is Heather‘s lucky day! Heather, my dear, you are the winner of the Sharkies gift set (for real this time, I promise). Hopefully, these come in handy for your new training plan! Look for your gift set in the mail soon.
2. I have a new homepage.

My friend Anna sent this to me, and it has provided me with such immense happiness for these days I can’t actually run.
I mean, COME ON.
3. I always feel guilty when I’m on a redecorating mission and use Pinterest for all my finds. Remember that time I pinned about 56 throw pillows and made your feeds a pillowy little heaven? Sorry about your feeds, guys. You’ll be seeing some more of my home good pins all week.
I’m on a mission for a new bedroom color scheme. My comforter has seen better days, and I find myself wishing I had the funds to indulge in these beauties:
I am swooning over that top one. I’d do manual labor to make that duvet cover mine.
I need to find a pretty gray comforter to match my color scheme. I’ve already starting piecing the rest of the room together…
Bet you can’t guess what my color scheme is.
So, who wants to donate $250 to Alyssa’s Comforter Fund?

Three fabolous things… oh Ryan. He is so sweet. LOL.
If you got that duvet cover, you would never leave your bed.

I have the last comforter in blue! Check the in-store sales; I got mine for just over $100
OMG Hey Runner Girl is the BEST SITE EVER!!!! Thanks so much for sharing!!

I’ve also been going crazy for the last quilt you have on there – not so much the price.
BUT! I did find a tutorial for it :
http://kojo-designs.com/2010/12/kojotutorial-anthropologie-inspired-knotted-bedding-part-1-making-the-knotted-squares/
It looks time consuming, but inexpensive and not too complicated… I can’t decide if I’m brave enough to try it!!
yeeaahh.. I’m trash with fabric/folding/needles/thread/sewing machines. it’s a disaster.
HA! I am in the process of trying to be pin-spired by pinterest bedrooms too. I’m considering doing slate, gray and yellow… but we’ll see it. I LOVE the 2nd option but I’m afraid my husband would veto it

I actually rarely like furnishings I see on pinterest! I always end up pinning my own I find from various websites.
MMmm looove grey and yellow together!
Janine @ThePurpleGiraffe recently posted..OUCH… in a good way?
Love love love those comforters!! But I’m guessing hubby wouldn’t love the girliness of them!

Kristen @ notsodomesticated recently posted..Tim Tebow’s … feet?
I’ll take Ryan Gosling over pillows any day. Or Ryan Gosling with a pillow. Or…what was this post about again?
Comforter mission over here too! I am just not sure what color to get, I love the ones you have here, I actually posted a couple of those on my blog too! Same taste!
Seriously this room decor planning is like wedding planning for me, not as stressful though

wow that first ruffle comforter is the bomb.com. I don’t blame you for wanting to do manual labor. I will do it with you so we can both have one. But mine needs to be purple I think.

Can’t wait for my Sharkies samples!
Too too nice, you guys didn’t hafta do that. Thanks to Lauren, too!
Ummm and I dunno if you have seen my decorating Pinterest board lately, but I am addicted to grey/yellow schemes. Definitely doing that when I get a place…the bf will have to deal, I don’t think its TOO too girly!! Well, maybe the ruffles….which I LOVE on that comforter. I think I actually have that pinned, too.
Sam @ The Balance Artist recently posted..Colored Denim
I LOVE the grey and yellow scheme TOO! I’ve been trying to gradually add in those colors to our bedroom. Target has a cute quilt that I want to start with and then get some yellow accents.
I want to do grey and yellow in the bedroom and grey and teal in the livingroom. I just need to find THE perfect grey slipcover for our couch. Let me know if you see one while you’re looking
They are suprisingly hard to find…
I already have a gray slipcover on my living room sofa, actually! my mom got it for me for Christmas. maybe she’ll read this and tell ya where she found it.
My wedding colors were yellow and grey…so pretty much now my whole life is. When I where clothes that have yellow and grey in them my friends always tell me I look so wedding-y…and, yes, I love it!

K so I can’t remember on which post you talked about where to go get a skin screening so I’m just gonna straight up ask you…where should I go to have my skin checked over? I’m super fair and have always kind of had “birthmarks” so I should probably get checked out. Please and thank you!
find a dermatologist in your area.
they all do them!
haha!! love those hey girls! if only i could find a man that loves me and my 8 toenails…

I’ve been in love with that ruffle bedspread on urban outfitters for a while. I’m not getting a new bedspread until my dog decides not to tear up my bed. So maybe in 10 years.
PS I love your graphic with the arrows. Cute!
PPS The missing toenails RG is pretty much the story of my high school boyfriend. He would get a kick out of this. We ran together all the time and he always loved my nasty ass feet.

I love the grey and yellow color scheme! I enjoyed every pillow you pinned. I’m obsessed with home decor as well.
Sylvia @ Frolic Through Life recently posted..My First Blogaversary + Giveaway
My pinterest is always exploding with things I want for my apartment.. it is kinda terrible … but I totally love it. I am going to take a WILD guess and say your color are gray and yellow
I have always loved that combo 

Kate @ life’s precious moments recently posted..The apartment hunt..
Those comforters are to die for! It’s absolutely awesome looking, though I have no use for one now
Doesn’t mean I cannot admire the beauty. Gray and yellow is always pretty, not sure if it’d look better with yellow as the primary and gray as the secondary though. The other way is a bit “modern”

That website, hey runner girl, is the best thing to happen. He makes me melt!
Samantha recently posted..Comment on The Running Plan by Lizzy
BOOYAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You just made my day!! [also – can I get in on the “making it up to Sam” train? I would like to add a little something something to whatever you send her way

We will discuss v. soon. xoxo
Heather recently posted..Weight Loss Real Talk

I LOVE yellow and grey together! I want my next bathroom to be yellow and grey.
And that website is hilarious. Hello dream boat!

I have done far worse things in my day than pick a wrong giveaway winner. Sometimes I am such a dork.

You’re adorable and your blog makes my day, erryday.
love and blessings!

I love that you’re an ALY! I went by Aly for high school/college, and it’s pretty rare to find someone who spells it like we do.
Pretty rare. Unique.
That’s so funny! Glad to meet another fellow Aly.
xoxoxo
I’ve been having comforter lust lately too. I’m moving next month and I’m going to have to decorate!! I think I need you and your expert eye to come assist me. And maybe perhaps I will go get started on a pinterest board for it – who needs to get ready for work?!?
Ashley @ Freckles and Spice recently posted..Guest Post: Running Your Best 5K
I love that first comforter! So pretty.
And those “hey girl” Ryan Gosling pictures make my life.
Yellow Haired Girl recently posted..Nervous Nellie
I love all those Hey Girl pictures… let’s face it, Ryan Gosling anything makes me happy! And I love your color scheme! I’ve been working on my own and I love grey & lavender together! I’ve been hunting for the perfect bed spread too and find that they are all SO expensive! I made the mistake last time of just getting a cheap one and it’s so not as nice as having a fluffy duvet! Lesson learned! Have a great weekend!
Emily @ Glitz Glam Granola recently posted..Viva
I love pinterest! and many times have to tell myself “5 more minutes” so I can get some sleep before work haha
I have the last comforter from anthro in navy and I love it! It’s worth the splurge
The RG memes are hilarious. I love them! I always want to redo my bedroom. I just need more cash flow. ha
That Runner Girl site makes my life complete. Amaaazing!
Kelly @ Femme Fitale recently posted..Ouch!
I love the yellow/grey combo. We are actually redecorating our bedroom this summer, and thats what I plan on going with!
