FRIDAY FAVORITES | #90

Happy Friday, everyone!  I saw this meme on Pinterest the other day and had to laugh because I know there a ton of you out there who do work on weekends and Friday means nothing to you.

So please just know, that I get not everyone is a super fan of Friday.  This meme is for you!

WHAT'S UP WEDNESDAY! | MARCH 2019

Oh my goodness.  How are we already at the end of March?!  This month has flown by and life is getting busier by the day.  March is always the month that my Etsy shop ramps up with teacher appreciation gifts being ordered as well as lots of fun tumblers and water bottles being purchased for vacations!  So if you see this blog looking abandoned for days on end, just know it's mostly because my energy is being spent on keeping up with my shop responsibilities.

Today, I'm back though with the monthly What's Up Wednesday post with Sheaffer and Shay!

A LAZY SPRING BREAK.

Happy almost-Friday, friends!  This week has been rough, as all are when you're coming back from Spring Break plus adjusting to the whole "spring forward" madness.  I feel like our schedules are all off and honestly, none of us are really doing much to get back on track right now.  There's always next week right? 😉

But we had a super lazy Spring Break.  Craig had to work all week and then had to be in Houston for a football camp last weekend so we just made our own fun.  Here's what that looked like...

Mason tried his hand at painting signs with me while I worked on the other side of the table.

He was so proud!  He wants to paint his name across it now.  My little protege.  ;) 

AMANDA'S AMAZON HAUL

Welcome back, friends!  I ended up taking the week off from the blog last week for Spring Break but I'm back today with an Amazon Haul!  If you are part of my Daily Deals FB group then you know how much I love Amazon.  (Who doesn't?)  So I thought I'd show you some of the things that have landed on my porch over the past month.  It's always fun seeing what other people bought, right?

FEBRUARY BOOK REVIEW & FRIDAY FAVES!

Happy Friday, girls!  I know a lot of us are on Spring Break this coming week so it's extra happy for us, right?!  It's probably even happier for those of y'all who get to actually go somewhere fun as opposed to those of us who will be living vicariously through your Instagram pics.  😉

Ah well.  Such is life and all that.

Today I'm bringing you a mini book review because, as I said yesterday, I chose Hulu over my beloved audiobooks last month.  So I've only got TWO to review.

DISTRACTED.

Ahhhh! I had all the plans to finish my February Book Review and have it posted today but guess what?  I waited until last night to start it...and that was a big mistake.  HUGE.  Do you know what last night was?!  

REAL HOUSEWIVES OF NY PREMIERE NIGHT!!

Now, some of you are all...

But then some of you are thinking...

I'm sorry, y'all.  It's just my THING.  It makes me happy.  It is a stress reliever at the end of a crazy day. 

So...

Hahahaha.  Sorry.  I never get ugly comments on this blog (knock on wood and THANK YOU) so I wouldn't expect any of y'all to "be all like uncool" and knock me for my vice.  But I just had to find a way to use that GIF.  It's classic.   😂😂😂

Besides the NY premiere, it was also the New Jersey girls reunion Part 3!  (I love watching drunk people fall down!!!  Joe Gorga gave me my favorite moment from this season!)

So yeah, I had a long night.  And I just couldn't get myself in the right mindset to talk books today.  It was all housewives drama and I just.can't.quit it.

I'm seriously considering doing full recaps on RHONY every week.   Kind of like Sheaffer does with The Bachelor (except there's no way I could be nearly as funny).  She KILLS it with her recaps.  (Find them here.  Even if you aren't a Bachelor fan, you will love it!!)

I was just completely distracted.  Couldn't put a complete sentence together that made any kind of sense.  (Even that sentence sounds weird.)  Got even more distracted reading y'all's comments on my "Who is your all-time favorite Housewife post" over in the FB group (the GIFs everyone left are hysterical!) and looking up new deals to post there as well.  Why is it so hard for me to do JUST ONE THING at a time?  I tend to live under the mantra of "Why do 1 thing when you can do 3?!".  haha

And in case you missed it, my blog now has an OFFICIAL FB PAGE!!  Yes, I have a Deals group but apparently, every blogger needs an actual page in order to do certain things and GROW.  And I want to grow, y'all!  I may not be the most consistent blogger but I do love it when I have something to say!  And it's nice to know you aren't talking to a wall so growth is good!  It means people like you, right?  And who doesn't want to be liked?!  This is also why I love love love my Deals Group.  Because I get to interact with all of you throughout the day and make friends!!

You can find the new page HERE.

Seriously, I hope to be back tomorrow with some good Friday Favorites that just might include the first edition of Amanda's Amazon Haul (I already have a new graphic and everything!  #whoa) AND a February Book Review.  But honestly, who are we kidding? I'll be happy if I can just get one of those done.  I'm trying to double up on Etsy work in order to prepare for our Spring Break next week!  Work comes first and all that.  Blah blah.  haha.

See you back here tomorrow, friends!  Please feel free to drop your comments about your Housewives thoughts and who your all-time favorite HW is!

MONDAY MUSINGS.

Happy Monday, friends! I hope everyone had a great weekend!  We were dealing with cold weather, gray skies, drizzle and rain this weekend (plus 2 boys with stuffy noses and yucky coughs) so we did a lot of typical rainy day things.  Meaning we laid around in our PJs a lot, played games, watched movies and ordered takeout.  Craig was actually in town this weekend (yay!!) but he still had a camp.  It was just local this time so he didn't have to travel.

Today I've got a few random thoughts for you in this Monday Musings post.  And when I say random, I really do mean it. But since we're already talking about the weekend, I'll start with that.
