Whew! Is it just me or did anyone else's week fly, too? I'm not complaining at all, but I know my blogging suffered. I spent most of my workday yesterday catching up on reading your blogs! I missed so much fun! haha. Having to work Monday and being off Wednesday cut my week right down the middle, and I would be lying if I said I didn't love it.
1.
It is tax free weekend here in Nashville, and I plan to totally take advantage of it. I need some new work pants because mine are all worn out. Jackson could use some new dress pants, too, and I know he needs good socks for work. I will probably be hitting Kohls, JCPenney, and Target, Walmart for the socks, and who knows where else tomorrow morning while Jackson is at the Duck Blind Drawing!

I monogrammed the cutest backpack for a coworker's son who is starting Kindergarten next week!!Love how it turned out! The final product is so worth the struggle and strain I endured to get it in the hoop. My thumbs are in pain.
3.
I played in Home Goods for a while Wednesday when I was off work. Boomer has had a hard time getting up and down on furniture, especially dad's bed, lately. So I found these steps! They were on clearance for $10. It said cat furniture, but I imagine they'll work just fine, right?

I finally updated our chalkboard this week. It's been a big black wall staring at me for weeks. I just felt uninspired and everything looked lame.
5.
I'm not going to lie. I had a week of wonderful hairdays and cute outfits. Some days I feel motivated, but this week it was every day! I can 100% guarantee it won't happen two weeks in a row. ;)
I hope you're all gearing up for great weekends!!

ReplyDeleteIt's this awesome thing Tennessee does right before school starts! It includes school supplies, clothing, and electronics! It's the bomb dot com, even if you're only saving 9% or so.
