It's hard when every day feels like a Monday. I do fine for the most part, but weekends are especially hard. And even though it's Friday, it still just feels like a Monday.
You know the movie "Groundhog Day"? Yep, that's me!
Okay, enough whining.
I am so grateful for a friend that I can be myself around, spend 8 hours in the car talking and not run out of things to say... and someone I can just journey along-side in this crazy life we live in.
My husband picked me up Wednesday night in our new (to us) vehicle, a Chevy Traverse. Dang, that man did amazing on this purchase. We walked away paying about $45 less a month than we would have, if I would have had my way a few days earlier while we were there doing a test drive. Oh, and let's not forget all of the upgrades: a DVD player, new tires, 2 sun roofs, leather seats, and more space than I ever imagined. I am so thankful to be married to a WISE man who cares about nothing more than what's best for his (our) family. Between my research on the vehicle, and his mad negotiating skills, we walked away extremely confident in our decision and mostly just feeling thankful.
Hold on to your seat, I'm about to get random.
Anyone ever heard of project life? I am thinking about doing it. It seems to be a happy medium between crazy scrapbooking and nothing at all.
I went to Trader Joe's for the first time last weekend... sad to see the store closest to me did not sell any wine. Side note: almond butter = ahhhmazing.
I want to make this, and this, and these. None of them would go good with my diet, but diet schmiet.
This article made me feel really good. Understood.
Considering these shoes for my next tennis shoes purchase... or maybe for my birthday coming up, hint hint.
I'm in love with chevron prints and I'm trying to figure out how to incorporate that style into my house.
The whole SOPA and PIPA thing has my stomach in knots. If you don't know what I'm talking about, you can read about it here. Please consider signing a petition, here is one from Google.
The next 'big' project in my house will be re-decorating our bedroom. This picture is my inspiration.
Oh my, these seriously make me laugh.
Have I mentioned today that I love Jesus? And coffee?
Loved this article about using YOUR words.
where's cohen... peek a boo!
Ahh, feels good to be back. I'll try and be a little more regular in my posting next week.
Happy Weekend! Any big plans?
I love that car. Really, love.
ReplyDeleteAlso? Your boys are as cute as ever!
Just realized the girl in the picture that I was asking you about is you!!!!! Must be it's been too long since I've seen you when i didn't recognize my own daughter!!!!! You Look GREAT!!!
ReplyDeleteUgh, I knowww how you feel [in reference to the first paragraph], but it sounds like you have plenty to say! Haha. :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats again on the new car. As for Project Life, DO IT! This is my third year doing it and I love it. It's the only way I scrapbook now and I know 10 years from now Liv will love looking through it and seeing snippets of our lives. :)
ReplyDeleteHa! I haven't blogged since Jacob was born (basically). Between our move and his birth, I've been a little busy, to say the least. But I feel like I need to have my house perfect before I start blogging again. There go the lies again... that life has to be perfect before I start sharing it with others. Ugh! Well, I have started a blog today, but haven't posted it yet b/c I wanted to add pictures of the kids (which are still on the camera :) Congrats on the Traverse. I like. We are going to be needing something different in the future, and I definitely want three rows, but maybe not a minivan this time.
