Timing is everything

Week in Review

Is it just me or did this week fly by.... again?! 

Over the weekend, mama and I spent some time starting our spring cleaning early. It felt so good to get rid of things that were just taking up space. I found some sweet trinkets from when I was a kid and it was fun to take a trip down memory lane. It felt so good to see the space we cleared all empty. It felt like the house was physically lighter. I can't wait to continue our journey. 

Monday after work I had a little adventure. I stopped by a local restaurant to make reservations for Galentine's Day and to make sure we got the cool lounge area (secured!) and then I couldn't pass up the golden hour light and snapped the above photo right outside the restaurant. I love when things fall into place.  

I then stopped at the library one town over to pick up some books. I have always loved being a library and it has been a while since I was in this one. I worked at this one for two summers as the coordinator of the teen volunteer program. It was such a sweet job because of the kids. I found my books with ease (Strange Sally Diamond by Liz Nugent, Single on Purpose by John Kim and The Rachel Incident by Caroline O'Donoghue).

 

It was then onto my last stop of the evening, Kohls. I had been thinking about this top I saw last week that was on sale. I had a coupon so over the weekend, I decided I was going to get it. It was a versatile top and I was excited about it. After I decided on a size, I found the clearance racks and  came across two other pieces that made me really excited for the summer. 

Work has been pretty solid this week- lots of different queries that make me giggle and they definitely keep me on my toes. 

OH! The rodent didn't see its shadow last week so lets hope for Early Spring! Me and the girls were SO invested in that rodent last week. It was hilarious!

Loud Budgeting/// I LOVE this idea about talking about money with your friends. Being honest about your finances and saying I'm going to skip happy hour this week because I need to save a little. My friends and I are consistently talking about our money and how we can save money. 

Taylor and Celine at the Grammy's/// Yikes! This is not a good look on Taylor. I am all about being excited for something BUT always show gratitude to those who are there with you; at least look at the presenter when you take the award from them.

Elmo gets more than he bargained for/// This was so cute! Poor Elmo he was trying to be nice but he ended up going viral instead. I LOVE that the fact the person who wrote that tweet is a NJ native who run's Elmo's social media. 

Phillies Packing List/// To think, I am an  over packer BUT the Philadelphia Phillies bring overpacking to a whole new level!
