It’s the first weekend of the month, so grab your mug for a coffee date. I‘m linking up with Coco @ Running with Perseverance and Deborah @ Confessions of a Mother Runner for the Ultimate Coffee Date.
What is the Ultimate Coffee Date? Imagine we are having coffee together… this post is what I would tell you. So grab a cup, “listen” and then tell me what is going on with you in the comments, please!
If we were having coffee… I’d say I can’t believe it’s September. This year is flying by. I’m ready for some fall weather but it was almost 90 here yesterday, so I have to wait a bit longer. Hopefully not too much longer! I do love fall. It’s crazy that I’m starting to get solicitations for holiday gift guides but I guess it will be here before we know it.
If we were having coffee… I’d tell you that we’re watching Severance on Apple TV and it’s pretty wild. There are some other shows on Apple TV that I want to check out while I have my 3 months free for getting a new phone. I’m also excited to start reading Taylor Jenkins Reid’s new book Carrie Soto is Back. I’m interested to see if the character is more sympathetic than she was in Malibu Rising. I’d ask what you’re watching and reading.
If we were having coffee… I’d tell you that I’m excited for the Chicago Marathon and all of the fun events that come to Chicago because of it. I just signed up for a Read and Run Chicago event with Deena Kastor on September 11. (It’s free – here’s the link.) I’d ask if anything fun is coming up in your neck of the woods.
If we were having coffee… I’m manifesting a win of a trip to Iceland. The Taste of Iceland festival is in Chicago this weekend. There are all kinds of events inspired by, and in celebration of Icelandic culture through food and beverage, music, literature, films, art and more. I’m going to a cocktail event and a sound bath and I’m hoping to get a chance to spin the prize wheel and to win a trip!
If we were having coffee… I’d ask if you have any fun travels or adventures coming up soon. All I have planned right now is Expo East in Philly in September, the NYC Marathon and holidays in California. I hope we’ll get it together to plan a long weekend or 5 day trip for our 20th anniversary in November, too.
If we were having coffee… I’d ask “what’s happening by you?” Please tell me in the comments!
I’m linking up with Darlene, Michelle, Renee, Jenn and Zenaida, for Fit Five Friday. Join us!
PS. Please don’t forget my great giveaways.
