Mish-Mash
Hey y’all!! Long time no blog, right?! I have been super busy and just haven’t had time. Sorry guys! I’m gonna try to be better!! I kinda have a lot of mish-mash to talk about because a lot has happened!!
************************************************************************
I’m first gonna start out with a product review!! The nice people of at CheriBundi sent me some of their Cherry juices to try! I’m not a huge juice fan, but the fiancé is, and I was very intrigued by Cherry juice!!
They sent us 4 bottles to try. 2 of the regular Cherry juice, one Skinny Cherry juice, and one with Whey protein!
50 cherries in each bottle! That’s awesome!!
Love that the only ingredients are tart cherry juice, water, and apple juice as a sweetener! The verdict…. we LOVED them!! The fiancé kept saying how great they all were and in fact he drank the majority of the bottles! Haha. It tastes exactly like a cherry. I’m not kidding! I enjoyed the Skinny Cherry juice the best. I definitely recommend trying out some CheriBundi Cherry juice!! The fiancé is already asking me to buy more!!

Moving on to my next topic, or more like the story of the flood. So, this weekend, my parents and I went to Ohio for my cousin’s wedding. The wedding was great, my cousin looked beautiful, and we had an awesome time!! But, our drive home was not so fun, not at all!! I’m sure y’all have all heard about the flooding in Memphis and Nashville by now. Well, we had to drive through Nashville to get home on Sunday. Yea, didn’t really happen. First of all, there were hurricane like rains almost the entire ride home. It was awful. It got really bad once we got into Nashville, and this is what we saw.
This is kinda hard to see since I took it from a moving car, but this is what all the exits looked like off the interstate. The roads were completely covered in water and it looked like a river.
And this is what it looked like right along the interstate. River anyone?!? The water started spilling over onto I65 at parts but we were able to make it through. Sadly, they I40 got shut down which is like the only straight shot to Memphis. Luckily, in a last minute decision, we stayed on I65 South instead of being stuck on I40 for hours or days!! We took I65 South all the way down to HWY 64, which is at the southern most part of Tennessee. We were going along well for awhile on HWY 64, until the road was completely flooded and the police weren’t letting us through. So where to next?! Alabama of course! Haha. We drove down to Florence, Alabama and were able to catch HWY 72 that we were hoping to take into Memphis. Well, thanks to my friend Brandi, who was coming home from Alabama the same way, we knew that HWY 72 was shut down in Corinth, MS for flooding. Luckily, another friend of mine who lives in Corinth was able to give Brandi directions around the flooded area and we were able to make it home!
It took us 14 hours to get home. Normally it takes around 8. It was a LONG day! Who knew to get home from Ohio we would be going from Ohio to Kentucky to Tennessee to Alabama to Mississippi and back to Tennessee! Crazy, right?! I’m just glad I made it home in one piece! And please keep all the people in Nashville in your prayers!! They are still dealing with floods everywhere.

My last topic of the night! My workouts!! I was able to workout in Ohio, on Saturday morning. We stayed in a hotel in Cincinnati since that’s where I flew in Friday evening, and they had an awesome workout room!! My mom and I headed down there to get a nice workout in Saturday morning before heading to my Grandma’s house. I ellipticaled for 30 minutes then did some strength training. It was fun to use the elliptical since I don’t have one to use! Could definitely tell it worked some new muscles!!
Today I did a really hardcore circuit training workout for about an hour and 40 minutes. It included running intervals and arm, abs, and legs strength training. I was exhausted by the end. I am hoping to run in the morning before it gets too hot!!
Well friends, that’s all for tonight! I promise to post more regularly!! Have a great night!!
