[friday favorites]

It's been some kind of week. You'll notice what I mean when you see my favorites.

My goal was more on surviving the week than necessarily enjoying it. So glad I made it through!!! My favorites are the things that got me through the week and here they are!

A friend came over one night that I craved chocolate and brought some Dark Chocolate Hershey's Kisses. They are the perfect amount of dark and a few is really all you need. 

I haven't bought wine in a very long time, but my parents brought this Newman's Own Cabernet Sauvignon last time they came down. I'm pretty sure it's a fairly medium priced wine. Plus who doesn't love a brand where all proceeds go to charity?

Have a great weekend all!

[plateau]

So I've been going through a bit of a rough patch lately. Emotionally, I'm drained. Mentally, I'm exhausted. Physically, I'm beat. The worst part is when you get into a rut of not working out, you become lethargic, making you less inclined to get started again. For me it's mostly a time management thing, but it's also become an emotional thing. Plus I'm apartment hunting. You try working full time, having a 1.5 hour commute every day, and finding apartments. It's not easy to have energy to work out after that; I get home and pass out. These next few weeks are going to be busy and rough for me. I'm going to try to get motivated again, but we'll see. Right now i'm mentally and physically at a plateau. So here's to getting back into a routine.

[springing for shoes]

So spring time means fresh pedicures, light clothing and sandals. The funny thing is that it's always hot here anyway, but we don't really wear sandals and wedges until spring comes around. In the spirit of the season [and of a new wardrobe!!!] I went shoe shopping the other day. I DIED with how many things I found [and couldn't afford]. But still. And of course, my forever faithful Nordstrom Rack had some great choices [that I will be back for].

I didn't take any home, but here are my top choices for spring and the beginning of summer!

What shoes will you be buying this spring???
