Monday seems like a good day for a roundup of happy things, don’t you think? Our weekend was a mix of home time and being out and about at the Head of the Charles, on the boat, and with a visit to Duxbury Beach. I don’t care how cold it gets out, I am happiest near the sea!

French toast sticks Lots has been happening lately, especially at work! The hotel I work for, the Royal Sonesta Boston, just completed a major renovation, and that includes the opening of a new coffee shop that’s open for breakfast, lunch, and afternoon treats. House made items like French toast sticks and pastries are tough to have in the building, but I am loving having easy access to a really good double espresso in the afternoon without having to take a ton of time away from my desk.  This will definitely come in handy in the winter.

Lately we have been ever-so-slowly settling into our house. We are far behind where we would like to be due to a really ugly situation with a crooked plumber that has been going on since February. Despite this frustration, little things like the above Canvas Pop canvas, made from our own travel photos, are making our house a place we love.

Speaking of this plumber situation, any way we can relieve stress has been a draw, and the week after we went to court and thought we were done with him, we spent a date night at G20 Spa in Boston to unwind. Massages, followed by sparkling wine in their penthouse lounge made for a perfect Friday night.

Working near Kendall Square has been making me really happy lately too. I was so incredibly excited when Mother Juice opened up, offering great smoothies and juices and really yummy, healthy salads. I don’t leave work often for lunch since we have a free cafeteria, but when I do get out, I make a beeline to Mother Juice.

One thing not making me happy? My lack of motivation for exercise. I have downloaded the Pop Sugar fitness app to try to make myself do some short workouts, and while I love it, I haven’t really been actually using it.

What are your recent favorites? Any tips on getting motivated?

    I totally need a good fitness app to get my butt into gear. Also, I most definitely wouldn’t be able to resist french toast sticks!

    I hope your plumber drama is over soon!! :/

    I’ve been unmotivated with exercise too. We were doing so well until the mornings got dark and cold.
