it's a good day to have a good day

Life has been beautiful this weekend.

A baby shower for a cousin, knowing that she truly loved the gift I gave her (custom scrapbook), and seeing my family... if only weekends could always be like this.

Though it's Saint Patrick's Day, I only celebrated by tossing some green out of my wallet in the form of fun, polka dot jeans (they are very cute & stylish, trust me!), some spring shirts that can double for work & play (always a must!), and a couple home decor items that I've been coveting from etsy.

Oh etsy.. you do me so bad (and good).

I have some thoughts in my head on starting my own business but to be honest, I am not quite sure where to start so perhaps I will spend my summer researching & preparing some things. Life can be so exciting if you let it.


I want so badly to fill this blog with adventures & photos... and I promise I will.

But in the meantime, I will leave you with this:

has spring sprung?

I think I can *officially* say spring has sprung! And how could it not with this beautiful weather (despite that freak snow storm Friday!) and the fact that we turned the clocks back! I think losing an hour of sleep is well worth it to get some extra sunshine after work.

The spring bug hit me a little hard this weekend.

I felt the NEED to buy new nail polish and some bright pretty jewelery and these amazing light pink pants. Oh, target how you get me everytime.

And the sudden rush of 50 to 60 degree weather gave me some new housewife motivation to clean our little apartment. Dan helped (or rather, did the things he knows makes me gag. Like cleaning up food or the yucky bugs that get stuck in the windowsill) and I just HAD to add more springtime decor.

Yup. The spring bug has bit me.

This weekend was a great reminder of what wonderful ladies I am surrounded by. We went bridesmaid dress shopping and out to lunch with the bride to be Laura and it was a lovely time. Plus cocktails with the crazy bride later that night was just the cherry on the top of a fabulous weekend.

friday friday gotta get down on friday

It is snowing - even though the weatherman said it would snow WEDNESDAY.

I know what I have to do this morning at work already and I am not looking forward to it.

It is a Friday during Lent, and of course that is when I crave chicken or a big juicy cheeseburger the most.

I haven't been sleeping well so my body is craving a super long nap or a morning where I sleep until noon but since I have work and tomorrow I want to run before my day starts, I get to wake up before 7 and hang out with my bed head for a while.

But it's Friday... and I have some nice things planned over the next couple days so I can deal.

Tonight, I am forcing Dan to take me to the grilled cheese restaurant (yes, we have a GRILLED CHEESE RESTAURANT. We also have a pb&j one but thats for another day. and to find someone to go with me who doesn't gag at the sight and smell of peanut butter like my lovely husband does). We are also going to get a cupcake because... cupcakes.

So Friday.. you may not be ideal but you will include cupcakes and the thought of a free 48 hours once the clock hits five.

pizza pizza!

Dan and I are not romantic in the least. Yes, we're cute and yes we have our moments in public where we hold hands or sneak a kiss but in reality, candle light dinners and expensive nights out are just not our thing.

Our thing is pizza. We sit in our stretchy pants and Dan makes cheese fries in our deep fryer and cooks the pizza (while I watch... our kitchen is way too small to have two people cooking at a time. My other job is to wrangle the dog out of the way.

Dan loves pizza, I can take it or leave it (it's gotta be good for me to love it) but we found a pizza we both love and thanks to Wegmans, we've been eating it the past couple Sunday nights.

I apologize for the lack of blog posts. But March will be a busy month and I'll be updating a lot.
