I Need Some Shirts : Five on Friday

TGIF, Y'all!! This week has gone by really slow, so I am ready for the weekend. I am hanging out with my friend Elizabeth tomorrow and couldn't be more excited! Yay for girl time!!! Now this rainy crappy weather is blah and something I am not excited about. Okay, maybe just for the fact that I get to hang out with Jake tonight and watch movies. Perfect Friday after a long week. Anyway, let's get right to my five on Friday. I am linking up with April and her friends again, so enjoy!

O N E: Visit with the Physical Therapist

Within the last couple of months my neck has been really bothering me. I fell my freshman year of college wake boarding and never treated it. It was a bad, terrible, total face plant fall. I couldn't move my neck from the beginning of September to the end of December. Why in the heck did I not go to the doctor then?!? Who knows. I guess I thought I was young and invincible. About a month ago I went to the chiropractor and boy oh boy was that an experience. You can read about it here. It is still a nightmare and I am trying to get some of my money back. They said they "mailed" it last week. I don't think they expected me to stay on it like I have been. I am hoping I get my money back and can go my separate way. So ridiculous!

Well I got my physical last week and my doctor referred me to a physical therapist. I went this morning. It. was. awesome. The experience was so much better and I didn't leave completely crushed. The doctor explained everything to me and made me feel like it could be fixed. Compared to the chiropractor filling me with fear and a very very VERY expensive treatment plan. Like 15K expensive WITH insurance covering a lot of it. So I am very excited to be working with my physical therapist to fix my neck pain for good!

T W O: Raspberry Ice Tea

When I graduated college I decided that since I wasn't going to be walking as much I needed to cut something out of my diet so I didn't gain the post-grad poundage. I decided on sodas. They have so much crap in them and aren't good for you at all. Don't get me wrong, if I am craving a good ole' coke I definitely have one. I have always been a water lover, but sometimes I just need some sugar. I found this lovely tea at a restaurant and we recently got some in the office. I really enjoy it and the sugar lover in me loves it to. It's pretty good if I may say so myself! Do you have a favorite tea or drink other than soda?

T H R E E: Thanksgiving

Y'all!! Can you believe it is already Thanksgiving?! It feels like Halloween was last weekend. Time flies. I am excited to spend the holidays with family and eat a lot of good food. I always enjoy a good long walk after the food and then a good long nap when I get back. I am hoping I get to do that this year when we are celebrating with Jake's family. I am going to make a dessert, an appetizer, MAYBE a side dish/salad and for sure without a doubt a holiday sangria. Do you have a go-to dish that you make for holidays or get togethers?

F O U R: Ava's new trick

My Ava girl is super smart! She is a border collie mix so it comes natural. This week I taught her how to bow. She catches on pretty quick and is a pleaser so it makes training fun and easy. The next trick is to put her toys away. We are going to start the training process for getting a beer out of the fridge, too. Well, I think we may need to expand that to wine. ;-) I love teaching her new tricks and definitely love showing her tricks off to family and friends.

F I V E: Fun at work

The guys building a tower out of tower balls on my desk. Ha! We were doing an experiment. They tried to get it to the celling, but there were too many weak points.
