A sentence a day | March 2019

I thought this could be a fun way to wrap up my month. I love this idea from all the bullet journal videos I watch so I thought I'd adapt it to blog format! Something I've learned (or rather affirmed) through this month long blog post: my life is boring lol and I need to get out more! Also... this was kind of a fail, and I didn't post every day but thought I'd still share anyway.

1. TGIF! Val actually had the weekend off so we went toDave & Buster's. Terrible food but great company.
2. Hubby and I saw Shinedown and Papa Roach in concert, as a belated birthday celebration for his 35th!
3. Husband vs. the stomach bug 🤮... wife vs. anti-bac and the toilet 🤢
4. Hubby continued to recover while I worked from home... then guess who also came down with the bug that night 🤢
5. I took the day off work to recover... it was pretty awful.
6. Felt so much better but still had body aches and was exhausted. I worked from my laptop when I could. We watched The Hitman's Bodyguard and I was surprised at how much I liked it. I love me some Ryan Reynolds!!
7. Back to work today, and a little anxious to pick up the pieces from before I got sick.
17. Cuddled with my niece for a little bit this morning. Best part of my week. 
19. Went to dinner with my sister and hung out with her for a little bit.
20.We took Cooper for a walk around the neighborhood. He didn't bark once while we were out, and he loved the retractable leash and the freedom it gave him to wander around. 
22. Went to a conference with my coworkers! I love learning new things in my field. I always leave conferences inspired and refreshed.
23. Hubby woke up a bit early today! ❤ We actually got to run errands together, which is a nice change.
31. My 30th birthday... we went to my niece's baptism and met my sister's new puppy! I took the following day off to celebrate with my hubby.

Friday Favorites! A hodge podge of random things

The other day I was going through Goodreads, picking out books I wanted to add to my library wishlist (I always say, searching for books is a completely separate hobby from reading, lol!). I came across Fredrick Bachman's newest release,  Anxious People . I always look at the quotes page to see if I vibe with the author's writing style. Man, does this book have some nuggets of wisdom! There are so many poignant quotes. This one resonated with me, just thinking about how overwhelming life can get when all those little things pile up: "Because the terrible thing about becoming an adult is being forced to realize that absolutely nobody cares about us, we have to deal with everything ourselves now, find out how the whole world works. Work and pay bills, use dental floss and get to meetings on time, stand in line and fill out forms, come to grips with cables and put furniture together, change tires on the car and charge the phone and switch the coffee machine off and not forget...

coffee chat

If you and I had coffee, we would likely get a table outside. Mask mandates have been lifted here, so we would be able to feel a bit "normal" while sitting at a coffee shop with our drinks. I would probably put way too much creamer or syrup in my coffee, and you'd tease me and ask if I want some coffee with my cream. I'd roll my eyes but laugh because you're right. I love me a good indulgent coffee. It's the one "unhealthy" thing I won't budge on.  We would catch up, since it's probably been a really long time since we have gotten together in person. We'd agree that while facetime/ Zoom chats were an okay substitute, nothing compares to face-to-face girl time.  I'd tell you about how the weight on my shoulders feels a bit less "heavy" even though every now and again there are still some really dark days. I would admit that though they don't come as frequently anymore, they do come out of the blue. I'd talk about how ...

Friday Favorites! | CEUs, recipes, new jeans, eating healthy and my new raincoat!

Hello everyone! This is my first Friday Favorites in a while, and I'm so happy to be back at it. This week was a doozy- work was insanely busy. I'm so glad its the weekend and I'm looking forward to having the time to clean my home, do laundry, walk my dog, and do some good binge watching on Netflix. Bring on the weekend! Free Continuing Education credits. I went to a continuing education workshop this week and at the end of the event, the presenter shared that she does a free journal club monthly, in which once a month she hosts a webinar meeting to discuss a published article in our field that everyone reads before the meeting. I was so pleased to find it was a free CEU event, and that I could get 12 of these CEs per year if I participate monthly. That's a huge deal! Normally CEUs range from $25.00- $100.00, so the fact that I can get almost half of my required CEs for free is so awesome. I'm really excited for our December meeting!  Sandy's Kit...
