Logged in this morning and my old coworker/friend linked up with an awesome blog for Confessional Thursdays.
[Thanks Jess at Jessica's Little Bits of Joy]



Jess at The Newly is putting on a fab link party - come join!
Sounds interesting huh?!
I thought so too.

Here goes.

I Confess...

[] This morning I went to Starbucks again (shocker). Not because I had to, but because I enjoy pulling up to a window and having my coffee made for me.  I could very well come straight home from dropping the little one off at daycare and make my own...but seriously, it's not as good. Thankfully, I still have a ton of $$ left only gift cards.  Just hope it doesn't run out anytime soon....

[] While ordering my drink at Starbucks...I ordered an old-fashioned donut too. Best guilty pleasure on the ride home after a loooooong night with the little one last night! All alone. No child. No dogs. No phones. [This could be the culprit of the Michelin tire I've been carrying around] #momlife

[] While working at home this week...I've had old re-runs of Laguna Beach and Teen Mom running in the background.  Hey...back in the day, those shows rocked! [and still kinda do]

[]  I haven't styled my hair all week this week.  Ponytails it is. Wet hair and all.  That's how bad it's been this week feeling run down. #sicknessbegone

[] With that being said...I haven't put any makeup on either since Saturday. Eek.

[] Stopped by the store yesterday morning for some EmergenC. Ended up in the beauty aisle...just browsing.  You never know what you'll find.

[] I love Valentine's day. I just think red roses are so cliche.

There you have it.
Some of my week's confessions.
Boy...do I feel better.

What are some of your confessions?

A Few of My Favorite Things: January 2016 Edition

Here is January's round up of my favorite this this month:

1. Dove Dark Chocolate


Yes. This little red square of dark chocolate is just what I like after lunch.  I usually keep a bag of these close by so I can satisfy my craving for something sweet.

2. CC Slochy Knitted Beanie



I have the black one and the beige with fluff ball...and LOVE them.  Seriously, I am not a hat person, but when it comes to these beanies, they are so comfortable and soft! Especially during this extremely cold weather we had at the beginning of the month.  I got mine at Janelle James Boutique located in Tigard, Oregon.

3. Coffee (sugar-free, nonfat vanilla latte to be exact)



Yes, I am from the NW and I am a coffee addict.  I say that loosely because we all know coffee isn't all that bad for you.  Infant, there are a lot of benefits to drinking coffee.  I'm sure it's better black without all the added things like syrups and milk.  My favorite drink of choice: non-fat, sugar-free vanilla, extra hot, light foam latte.  I've been known to getting 2 lattes a day - eek!  Keep that one on DL between you and I...


4.Boogie Wipes



Spend, but I love these things!  Not only do they smell good, I keep a pack of these in my handbag.  My little one hates her nose running whether it's from a cold or from throwing a tantrum - she runs around saying "nose, nose, nose" while pointing to her nose.  That means "please wipe my nose".  What can I say, she's a clean child.

5. 101 Dalmatians

As of this month, my mom had purchased 101 Dalmatians fro my little one.  WOW- the memories of this movie.  And boy, does this movie catch my little ones attention #score



Welp.  There it is. This month's "A Few Of My Favorites: January 2016 Edition".

Friday Favorites [Jan 22] Edition

Happy Friday!

Show of hands of people who are thrilled it's the weekend?!  (me*me*me*me)

Not that I have anything fun planned, however I do plan on just sitting back and relaxing.

This week has sure been a roller coaster of ups and downs...and I'm sure glad it's over.

Here's my list of favorites this week:

COFFEE.

Need I say more?  Coffee has been my savior this last week. (There is a slight chance that I may or may not have had more than 1 coffee trip this week.  Shh...our little secret).
This week it's been: A medium, non-fat, x-hot, light foam, sugar-free vanilla latte.

Isn't this the truth sometimes?  Thank goodness I work from home these days...so no one has to deal with this crabby lady in the AM.

YOUNGER.

TVLand's show 'Younger'.  Recently, I caught up on last season up to the current week...and I must say - I love this show! If you haven't seen it, I highly suggest it. I find myself getting lost in this light, fun "non-reality" TV show. #myguiltypleasure

'

I found these online and thought...how inspiring!  I mean...at least this isn't another reality TV show. #AMEN

SUPPORT SYSTEM

This week (and a few weeks back) has been difficult for me.  However, do have 3 of the best support system people a girl could ever ask for - my sister, grandma and mom.  

My sister and I. Best. Sister. Ever. And she's clllll mine.

This sums up my Friday Favorites this week!  

Cheers to a wonderful weekend and a much better week next week!
