My Weekend, in Instagram

This was Wednesday, but Justice kicked off my weekend.

Another hostess and I showed up in the same dress for work.

Before the V2. They were all terrified.
I, however, am brave.

Monday Funday/Links for Sharing

I had an exceptionally long week/weekend last week, so I let myself sleep in today! Of course, my way too comfortable bed and the lack of sun shining though my window contributed to this laziness. After I finally managed to drag myself out of bed and make myself breakfast, a guy came to fix our internet and give us cable, and here was here almost all day. So I still haven't gotten around to taking a shower, because I didn't feel comfortable taking one while he was here. This is all to say that I have had an extremely laid back day. I did attempt to make this bracelet, but it didn't quite work out. Working with wire is hard, guys. Here are some interesting things that I've been collecting the past couple of weeks. Enjoy!

It's never too late.

Life is Short

I'm one of those people who overanalyzes everything. I'd like to change that. Lately, whenever I have a bad day at work, or I know someone is (or probably isn't, but I think they are) mad at me, I remind myself to take a deep breath, and keep things in perspective. I think about whether or not this thing will matter in a year. Or a couple months. Or even a week, for that matter. I need to look forward, without stressing out about the future either. Even though things aren't perfect and I may not be happy all the time, I'm content. And I'm ok with that.

Autumn Intentions

Have I mentioned I love Fall?

Back in July I created a list of things I wanted to make sure I accomplished this summer. Looking back at this list, I realize I did not do some of those things, but that's ok. In spirit of the new (and my personal favorite) season, I've made a new list of things to make time for fall.

Make pumpkin everything

Wear boots more often

Drink tea

Bake

Go to antique stores/flea markets
Take lots of pictures

Arts/crafts

Clean out my closet, and buy new clothes with intention (more on this later)

Try new soup recipes

Take more walks
