Hello, Monday.
It’s been a glorious week of nesting. With almost a month straight of travel coming up (with one week off in between two long ones), I needed a week where I said yes to me, meaning no to all the social engagements, friends, other to-do in order to get my shit together before leaving tomorrow for Alaska. It was a productive week! I reorganized my pantry after my built-ins got installed, and I set up a new desk area, which feels a lot less cluttered and a lot more peaceful.
I also foolishly thought that THIS WAS THE WEEKEND to tackle a gallery wall. Make that two gallery walls. So rather than spending that valuable time packing and cleaning, I spent countless hours measuring, designing, picking out frames and ordering artwork to make my home feel even more like mine. Progress shown above…Time well spent, but time well spent pre-vacation? Debatable.
On that note, many thanks to the gaggle of friends that are stepping in to help watch Crawley Cat until I get a more permanent long-term situation sorted (Chloe we miss you!).
Anyway, this week, a short one but still noteworthy:
If you are also tackling a gallery wall project sometime soon, here are some tips and tricks.
RyanAir is the worst of the worst and this “check-in” fee is a low low. I know, I’ve paid it.
Do you have an internet addiction? I feel like I get there sometimes, but then I go on vacation and am like “internet, what?” If you do, here’s your program.
We really do get by with a little help from our friends.
Who’s ready for GBBO?!?!
Ooh, Delta. You broke my heart.
It’s apple season, so I’ve got you for breakfast, lunch and dinner. And dessert! And drinks!
And if you need some dinner ideas for fall, I’ve got you covered.
If you’re like I have felt the last few years as far as completely failing at adulting (ie. keeping up with house things, life things, tax things, bill things, travel things, retirement things, all the things), I treated myself to this Adulting Kit and while I’ve only had it a few days and only filled out a few things, it’s AMAZING. If you also feel like a headless chicken most of the time, I say help yourself out.
Have a great week!
