Seriously though, thanks to allergies I spent most of Saturday feeling like crap and getting very little accomplished. Sunday was slightly more productive, I got the house cleaned (ish) and did laundry. This was also my first weekend back on the 21 Day Fix eating plan so that was an exercise in fortitude. (But I did pretty well, yay me!)
Today completes a week of exercising every day, which I hadn't done in a looong time, so I'm pretty happy with my consistency so far.
I also got some work done on sending info to Sarah for installing my new design template! That's why I was randomly posting those "Contact Me" and "Favorite Reads" posts, in case you wondered. Trying to get the blog ready!
I got my first Birchbox:
I signed up at the end of December, so this one was actually for December and I'm supposed to be getting the January one in the next week or so. I hope to do a post on what I got soon!
Sunday I met one of our former brides to give her the complimentary anniversary cake we do for all of our couples.
And I got to play with the metallic sharpies I got for my new wall calendar.
And then I did a little shopping and found a jewelry holder at Kohl's on clearance! I had been looking for one like this to put my most often used jewelry to make it easier to find and grab in the mornings.
And it actually perfectly matches our bedspread!
Adam made the BEST chicken for dinner:
I ended the evening with Downton Abbey, Yoga, and reading. Not a bad weekend, all in all!
I'll be interested to read what you think about Birchbox. I wasn't a huge fan when I was subscribed. Your Sunday night sounds ideal!
ReplyDeleteLook at you working out every day during a week!! That's impressive. I think I was in college the last time that happened! Love that jewelry holder!! So cute! Hope you have a good week!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm really trying to stay motivated!
DeleteI was so excited to find that jewelry holder, I had been wandering around Kohl's trying to find something to use my $5 reward on and then I found it! :)

Your jewelry organizer is really cute! I'm going to get something like that when we are actually going to stay in one place for a long time again. :) And dinner looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteWhere do you watch downton abbey because I'm trying to find a free site but I can't and I left off in the middle of season 3. Good for you for working out every day!
ReplyDeleteThe chicken looks lovely! Are you feeling better now? I hope you are :)
ReplyDeleteI have a jewelry organizer like that and love it! My allergies have been out of control lately too...what gives!? OOOH, hope you loved your Birchbox and have a great week!
ReplyDeleteOhh i've been debating if I should get a birch box! looks awesome!! I love the metallic sharpies!
ReplyDeleteI'm curious to see what came in your Birch Box! I tried it once a long time ago and then ended up canceling. I now do Ipsy, but it's either hit or miss.
ReplyDeleteLove your jewelry holder! Great find!
