Ahh, Sunday. What a glorious day. You know what I did this morning? I biked 18.6 miles. No big deal. Okay, let’s be real, I was pretty dang proud of myself. It felt incredible. And also my legs were pretty jello-y. But man, I felt a huge sense of accomplishment after that one! I absolutely love my little morning set-up, with the Nordic Track bike and my Netflix show playing (this morning was Pretty Little Liars). Speaking of, I just started PLL (season 1) and must say, at first I was like “Oh God this is just awful. The acting is terrible, it’s sooooo high school, really predictable…” and then by the end of the first episode I was like, “Oh, shit. I’m hooked. Whoooo is A?? Whatttt is going on?! Must. Watch. More.” So. That’s where I am. I mean, I have to watch SOMETHING while I wait for Downton season 2 to get mailed to me, one DVD at a time (boo for not being on instant Netflix!) What can I say, my interests are varied. I’m well-rounded, I guess. ;)
Any other PLL fans out there? No spoilers, please! I’m a newbie.
Hey! Have you entered my Firmoo giveaway yet? Do it, do it!! :)

Hi cute Katie! I have been reading your blog for a while and just love you! Wanted to say a BIG thank you for sharing the tone it up challenge. I just started it with a friend and am LOVING it! Thanks girl! Also, so happy to see that your mom is home! Luv, Amber
Aww you totally just made my day!!! THANK YOU for your sweet comment, Amber! I am SO glad to hear that you love Tone It Up as much as I do!! :) You’re awesome.

Great job biking! I’m a PLL fan as well! I watched the first episode on tv when it premiered and I couldn’t even get through it, I was like, this is so stupid. Fast forward a couple of years and for some reason I decide to watch it on Netflix. I was hooked! I’m impatiently waiting for them to add the new season but you’ll be satisfied for a while (;
Thank you Amanda!! :) And YES you totally understand how I felt about PLL too at first!!! We are totally on the same page! Love it.
xo
Love the outfit!
I actually adore the jello leg or stomach on fire feeling you get after a leg/ab workout… the burn is my friend, haha :) xxx
Thanks, girl! I am the same way- that ab burning is pretty much my favourite feeling ever! haha
xo
Ha… I’ve been debating about starting PLL… guess I have to now!
Haha oops, don’t hate me! ;)
xo
ahhhh I LOVE pll!!! got hooked watching on Netflix. like so into it that I got super jumpy in PUBLIC bathrooms…what was that noise…is it A?? ha!
YAYYYY, fellow PLL fan!!! :) hahahaha omg I’m afraid I’ll be the same way! Too funny!

I’m obsessed with PLL. I’ve been watching it on TV since it started, sometimes it’s kind of dumb and predictable but for the most part I can’t get enough of it and can’t wait to figure out who A is. It’s the ONLY show on TV that I watch “live”… I can’t even wait for it, crazy!
OMG I would go insane having to wait an entire week to watch the next episode!!! Glad to know I’m not alone in my PLL love! ;)
xo
Love PLL!! I was a book girl and so happy once they made it into a tv show!
Ahh I didn’t know there was a book!! That’s how Gossip Girl was with me :)

You can watch Downton season 2 on hulu. :)
For free?? I was looking for it and it was only for hulu plus! :(
xo
Good Work!! We have done a Walking Dead marathon today and I’m bound to have zombie dreams ;)
haha I’ve never seen Walking Dead, but have heard really good things!! I think I would totally have zombie dreams too ;)

Katie, do you have bangs? I really like your hair and I’m considering bangs, although I’m still not sure. We have pretty similar face shapes so what do you think? To bang, or not to bang? =P
I have side bangs, or just actually at this point really long hair that I sometimes part to the side. I think it adds a bit more shape to my face. I do NOT like how the middle part looks on me! And you are SO right- we have very similar face shapes!! TWINS! :)

I love sundays. I love PLL. I’ve watched the first two seasons & part of the third but I am still pretty far behind. It is a very good show though.
You go girl! That is a pretty big accomplishment. It is inspiring me to start exercising. And actually do it this time instead of just saying it. Here I come good summer bikini body! hahaha
Ahhh YAY you like PLL, too! When I catch up a bit more, we can totes talk all about it! ;) And get that sexay bikini bod, girl!
xo
Pretty Little Liars is seriously the best!! I’m watching the current season online (as we aren’t up-to-date in New Zealand) and you have lots to look forward to!! SO MUCH SCANDAL!!
Eeek I’m excited!! It’s already so scandalous and I’m at the beginning haha!
xo
PLL is the greatest show ever. Ever!!!!! :)
Hahaha you’re adorable! I am totally hooked!

YESSS I’m so excited for what’s to come!! I am SO hooked already.

Arrggghh Kate i WANT your hair!! You are so lucky. :) So much volume! I love that striped shirt with the gray cardigan, I may have to borrow that look. I don’t watch PLL but my boyfriend’s mom sure loves it!
oops I meant to type Katie, not Kate. ;)
Aww you’re so sweet. What you can’t see is the rat’s nest underneath that is disguised as “volume” haha ;) And I LOVE that your bf’s mom loves PLL! Too cute!
xo
Haha no worries- you can call me Kate, too ;)

Ha ha I love Pretty Little Liars. I just started watching it a few months ago and went through the two seasons on Netflix in like three weeks. Seriously. That show is soooooo addictive. If you like that you might like The Lying Game, it’s apparently by the same lady who wrote the book series and it’s also available on Netflix.
BTW, congrats on 18.6 miles. That’s awesome!
Oooh thanks for the rec! I will def check out The Lying Game once I’m done with PLL, too! :) Gotta love Netflix!! And thank youuu, I was so stoked I rode that far!
xo
Congrats on 18.6 miles! The furthest I’ve gone is 13… Way to go!! & PLL is a good one. It’s still super high school but the thrill & mystery of it all keeps me going. I’m caught up with the current season & season one is still my favorite. Enjoy!!!
Ahhh THANK you! I was super proud of myself :) And YES, PLL is SO high school, but SO good! ha! It’s my new Gossip Girl now that GG is no more.
xo
i JUST got on the Downton train and it’s so so good! i’m like halfway thru PLL first season and i love it :)
Ahh you and I are like the same person!! Ha!
xo
Oh holy bologna, Pretty Little Liars is fabulous. Just wait until you get caught up with this season! Fan-freakin’-tastic! It’s one of those shows that you don’t wait days or weeks to get caught up via DVR it’s one of those shows that I watch on Tuesday at eight o’clock religiously.
I cannot wait! I’ve been hearing how it just gets better and better! That’s awesome.
xo
I got super hooked to Pretty Little Liars!! It was a sad day whenI made it through all the netflix episodes. Now what!? I’ll have to wait till they update the most recent episodes!! ahhh love it.
Just started Downton too. One episiode down and I am can’t wait till I get ome time to watch them all!!
I know I’ll be feeling the same way once I’m done with the Netflix episodes!! Glad you’re liking Downton, too!
xo
I lovvvve Pretty Little Liars. The only reason I am okay with the end of the weekend is that Tuesday a new PLL comes on. Yes, I am pathetic haha.
XO, Kelsey
haha I love that!! I’m sure I’ll be the same way once I finish the Netflix episodes!
xo
PLL is totally my guilty pleasure and my husband hates it! Just wait until the next seasons.. they get even crazier!
My husband totally hates it too! haha they just don’t get it ;)
