Link up from Emily at Build Your Bliss.

Happy Friday!! I decided to join in on Emily’s link up for the week! Supporting her since I did ask her to make this a link up! Glad you did, Emily! Thanks for hosting this!

Got to see Mallory and Samantha twice this week! Wednesday we went to Cheddar’s for a catch up session. Thursday, Samantha and I went over to Mallory’s house for another hangout session. Mallory and I made our own foods then we all watched a couple reality shows and a fugitive show.

Hi Mallory and Samantha! Here’s your shout out …

It’s been a busy week at work but it’s worth it when you get to learn stuff that’s more along what you got your degree in. Plus getting things like this is a plus. Motivation to work harder.

My dinner every day this week except for Wednesday with a rotation of greens. So simple, easy, and delicious. I love sweet potatoes!! And that would be seaweed on top! Salty and sweet combination.

When I see the gorgeous sky, it makes me thankful for everything that I have in my life. P.S. No filter.

Thanks to those that responded to my last post! Means a lot. Just felt good to say how I feel and think some things through.

I hope you all have a great Friday! You deserve it! Go out! Have fun! Relax!

Stay Positive & Think Good Thoughts!

Chester See is such a hottie!

Reason we should never believe what we see!

Oh … what’s that? A bag filled with 15 pieces of tissue paper?!

I went home early Wednesday since I was starting to get more sniffles than the day before and didn’t want to get anyone else in the office sick. Being sick sucksssssssss but then I received a picture text!

One of my dearest friends of 10 years got engaged moments ago! October 23rd!!

I knew it was coming but I didn’t think it’d be in October! Reasons being:

• She just moved into her new house
• Her niece’s birthday
• Her birthday
• Halloween (her favorite “holiday”)

Now let’s tack on engagement. How great of a birthday gift is that? Big gorgeous ring!

I took another sick day Thursday and no matter how bad I didn’t want to move I went out to make an engagement “basket”. I put everything in a bag since I felt it was easier. This was what I wanted to make Sissy when she got engaged but I was overseas and by the time I was back, I felt it was too late. Maybe when she gets pregnant I’ll make her a baby basket.

Now the contents.

• A card with my love
• Bridal magazines (They even have one for Houston Weddings!)
• The Knot Book of Wedding Lists
• Post-its and tabs
• Paper Pad (with her future last initial)
• Skull pen (she loves skulls!) and an Orange Sharpie (she loves orange!)
• Essie nail polish: turquoise & caicos (she wants that shade of color and brown for her wedding! perfect!) and not pictured: bachelorette bash (because that fits!)
• Facial Masks
• EOS chapstick
• Santero Moscato Champagne

Congratulations Mallory & John! So ecstatic for you both! Cannot wait to see her walking down the aisle up to a teary eyed John. I kind of picture John teary-eyed. I call it. I hope the photographer captures that.

Time to work out till I drop. I don’t want too much to be jiggling on the dance floor. TMI? Sorry.

Hope you all have a great weekend! Tonight is Mallory’s birthday/housewarming party! I cannot wait to see EVERYONE!!

I’ve only been out of my house for less than one hour and I’ve already bought two new mascaras and am sitting here at Cloud Café blogging and sipping on a Caramel Latte. No more blogging at cafes when next week comes. Need to cut those nasty calories out!

I failed at updating about my Oregon trip this week. Going back to work, even though it was only for 3 days, was tough. I had to play catch up and I just felt very lazy afterwards. I am going to sit and write them all out this weekend and have them scheduled for next week. They WILL go up!

Until then, here are some funnies.
