Life in the Lowcountry: September 2017

So I'm kind of bad at this whole updating you on my life thing. I guess that's what happens when you work full time, move houses, road trip to Ohio, entertain friends at said new house, dodge a hurricane, have your family in town, and are in a sports social league. Did I also mention that it's officially College Football season?

So here's a little bit of an update on what I've been up to...

Since our kickball team did decent at the end of last season, we decided to move into a harder league. I'm just thankful to get out of the house and play some sort of competitive sport again. We finished out the season losing a double header, but I turned a double play so praise I still got it! HA! #Bad&Boozy will be back next season!


Since around June, I knew that my sister had tickets to THE game of the season- Oklahoma at Ohio State. Naturally she was going to take me, but due to shipping deadlines at work, me making the 10 hour trip back to Columbus just wasn't in the books. Luckily someone called Irma showed up and the weekend freed up a little. Did the drive back to Columbus suck? Yes. Did the actual game suck? Yes. But whatever ...at me haters! So regardless of the game outcome, I'm happy I was able to make the trip with this gal and see my family in the process. It's also starting to get a little fall in Ohio, so the cool weather was refreshing!



While I was home I also got to hang with my brother and his bees. Lol, yes, he's a beekeeper! Here are two of his hives. I think by next summer he plans on having enough honey to sell. Tbd...


We also got a new fire pit at our crib! They said roasting hot dogs and s'mores could not be done on it, but we proved them wrong! Ha! Now if would just get a little cooler every night so we weren't actually roasting as well.


I'm also an official member of the Ohio State Alumni Club of Charleston! Every gameday we have a watch party at SportsBook of Charleston. Any Buckeye fans in Charleston reading this- hit me up! We're also planning a fun tailgate for the Penn State game and a brewery tour, so that's just some of the fun activities we'll be doing this fall!


Shipped another issue of Grand Strand magazine! Our October/November issue is filled with the best places to eat in the Myrtle Beach area, so you should probably snag a copy for your next road trip to the Grand Strand.

Our friend and coworker, Nate, and his sister had a concert at the Pour House where they blew the roof off with their amazing voices! Here's me and my friends Ruby and Bryce! We also celebrated Ruby's birthday this night, but for some reason I didn't take any photos.

Finished the month off at an event called Whiskey After Dark. My roommate works at The Local Palate magazine, who hosted the party. It was beyond hot, so drinking whiskey was literally mission impossible for me, but the event was great and so were the people. Thanks stronza for taking me! ;)

And that pretty much sums up my month with a few trips to the beach and DIY projects thrown in there!

So cheers to October and *cooler* weather, amiright?
