Inspiration: ChristianPF

09.20.2010 by Linda Lotich //

So today’s inspiration might be a little biased, but I’m really excited about it! I’ll start with a little intro into the whole situation.

About 3 or 4 years ago, my husband started a website (Oh, and you may just find a few articles written by me!). It started out as a hobby for him and grew into a full time job. When the company  he was working for got bought out, he got laid off. It sounds like it would be a bad thing, but it was the best thing that ever happened. He was able to transition right into running this business from home. He’s been working from home for a little over 2 years now.

Right after he started working full time on our business he got this idea. We are so thankful as a married couple and realize we have so many blessings and want to make sure we’re not always trying to get, get, get, but also remember to GIVE! So he set up this challenge. Here, I’ll let you see for yourself…

So the idea is you give something everyday for 10 days. No rules. Just give on purpose. Babysit your sister’s kids, buy your child an ice cream cone, give your spouse a back massage, make a special dinner for your family, buy the drink for someone behind you in line at Starbucks. You get the idea.

It’s so much fun! You can tell friends and family and do it with a group too. (It makes it more exciting when you can tell them about things you’re going to give and stuff!) It really changes your life when you get your mind off yourself and onto others. I’m so excited!!!

Weekend Wedding

08.31.2010 by Linda Lotich //

We had a wedding this past weekend. It was beautiful. The reception was on the Hill in St. Louis. The Hill is like a little taste of Italy. It’s basically a little town with a million authentic Italian restaurants, from gourmet to home cooked style. It’s amazing. The wedding had some serious garlic bread that’s making me want to make some of my own.

Anyway, some good things happened to me this weekend.

  1. Someone told my father-in-law that I looked like Jennifer Aniston!
    OK, so I know I really don’t look like her at all. But the fact that someone would even compare me to her is absolutely amazing! Ha!
  2. While walking around on The Hill, I got whistled at! Can you imagine! That has never happened to me. And Bob was standing right there! Craziness!
  3. I got to slow dance with Bob. Hubba hubba!
  4. Even in 5 inch heels, Bob is still taller than me.
  5. I had 2 of my favorite cocktail, the Shirley Temple. Yes, it’s non-alcoholic. What can I say!
  6. Got 2 free meals!

So, how was your weekend?
