Absence makes the heart grow fonder

Last week FLEW by.
Which made me super happy because it meant that I got to see this guy!!!


It was one very long month without him.
The saying "Absence makes the heart grow fonder" is completely, 100% true.
There's absolutely nothing in the world like seeing someone you love after a long period of time.
It was the best 14 hours in a very long time.
We didn't do anything super exciting.
It was a typical Raleigh/Lizzie weekend...
Bowling, games, and our mandatory trip to Target(of course).
And then this morning he took me out to a Valentine's brunch since we won't actually get to see each other on Valentine's.
Fortunately, I'll get to see him next weekend as he runs his 3rd half-marathon.
I'm BEYOND proud of him. I never thought we would be doing stuff like this.
But the fact that we are makes me see that we're serious about our health and really want to get back on track towards a healthy weight.
And even though I'm not doing this race, I absolutely plan on doing one again this year. :)
But until it warms up outside so I can start training again, I plan on completing my 200 sit-up challenge.
I finished Week 2 this week and let me tell you, it's definitely getting harder!
I have no clue how I'm going to complete next week, much less week 6.
But I guess I'll face that when I get there, and just take it one day at a time.

On a more exciting note, I got 2 postcards this week.
Which I'm really happy about because it starts to get pretty sad when you check the mailbox everyday and there's nothing.
This one is from Australia.


And this one is from the United Kingdom.


Aren't they super cool!
I really hope I get more this week.
Only 97 more until I can cross it off my Day Zero Project list. :)
