Happy Saturday! Today I’m once again linking up with Jill Conyer’s Ultimate Coffee Date– are you ready? Take a seat, put your legs up, and let’s chat! 

Coffee Date

If we were having coffee this morning… I would tell you all about my bike ride to Mackinac Island, and the day I spent there. I had the awesome privilege of getting to bike 50 miles to Mackinaw City FOR WORK, and then getting to spend an entire day biking around the island and eating fudge at pretty much every fudge shop. I had a really awesome time, and I would probably talk your ear off about it. 

If we were having coffee this morning… I would probably tell you all sorts of stories about my cat Pooky who passed away  two weeks ago. I miss him tremendously, but often find myself smiling and laughing about memories from his 17 years of life. I seriously lucked out with that cat, and I’d definitely want to share stories with you. 

If we were having coffee this morning… I would tell you all about the highlights of my summer, and what made it one of the most summers of my life. I worked hard, played hard, worked our hard, and made (and strengthened) some great friendships. I got to work on a fantastic project through work, and all in all it was a truly excellent summer. I really am going to miss the summer, but I’m happy to be back in a job I love as well.

If we were having coffee this morning… I would probably talk about the final season of Dexter (especially the final episode). I finally got around to watching the final episode over the past two weeks, and I have to admit, I’m not the biggest fan of how the show ended. I really want to go back and watch the first few seasons though! Those were amazing!

If we were having coffee this morning… I would tell you all about the new link up that I am part of, called “You Can, We Can“. Our first link up was this week, and we celebrated with a giveaway. We’d love to have you join in on the link up this coming week!

If we were having coffee this morning… I’d probably ramble on and on about how thankful I am that I met Melissa at Carmel in April. Running with her these last few months has been really awesome. She just wrote a post on what makes a good running buddy, so make sure you go check it out!  I love having someone to talk running with, go out on training runs with, and to have someone who can push me in my training. I would also probably tell you about our HOT and HUMID race that we ran last week.

If we were having coffee this morning… I would admit to you that I really enjoy watching Big Brother. I just watched the 2013 season of Big Brother Australia, and it was one of my favorite seasons of Big Brother ever! I’m not really enjoying this current season of US Big Brother, but I’m still watching it. Then I’d want to know what your current favorite show is.

Now I want to hear from you! If we were having coffee this morning, what would you tell me?

    I’m so sorry about your cat! I can’t begin to imagine how hard that was. :[ Sending hugs and good thoughts your way!

  3. it has definitely been a long hot summer! I do enjoy summer re-runs because I don’t watch as much tv during the fall for some reason. Enjoy your weekend!

      I’ve LOVED this summer and am sad to see it go, even though I love fall. Enjoy the rest of your weekend too! Thanks for stopping by!

  4. Caroline, we are huge big brother fans in this house. How funny. We have to DVR so we can just watch right through the commercials LOL. Thanks for having coffee with us this month 🙂

  5. I haven’t been to Mackinaw since I was a kid, but I know it’s such a cool experience. I bet it was awesome on bike!!

  6. Melissa says:

    Love, love, love you and this entire post. I know that Pooky has been difficult, but know you’ve got two little kittens that love you very much and are available for snuggles as you wish!

    So grateful for you in ALL aspects of my (and PDeLong’s) life; pretty darn lucky that we ended up talking in Carmel! It will always have a soft spot in my heart for that very reason.

    Love you mean it!
