Upcoming Events

Elise's Bach Party: Are you guys going to get her any gifts or joke stuff for her to wear? Let's all meet somewhere before the dinner so we can go together.

Mike's Wedding: Have you guys decided which flights you're getting or are you still looking? The best deal I found was Airtran flying out Thursday and back on Sunday... but the Thursday flight is in the afternoon so I'd have to take a half day vaca. Ideally, I'd like to fly out Thursday night after work, but if the flights are a lot more then I may choose to leave earlier. Let me know what you guys have found! Also, are we still planning to all stay together?

Us!

Sleepover: I just posted about the next few weekends regarding the sleepover... which isn't looking too promising for me, but hopefully we can make something work.

Dinner: Would you guys want to meet for dinner up here next Tuesday, August 9th? Ali: you could come meet us since you won't be in school yet and we could go somewhere fun in Beachwood. Let me know what you guys think.

Labor Day: What are you guys doing over Labor Day weekend? We were on the houseboat last year. We should have a cookout and play corn hole and stuff. I feel like we haven't done that all summer and it's already August!

Tonsillectomy: I'm supposed to be scheduling this, but I'm sooooo nervous. :( I really don't want to keep having problems, but I was in so much pain two weeks ago and hear horror stories about this! I'm trying to work around work meetings and events, so I think I'm going to schedule it for Tuesday, September 27th because I have a little break in meetings then my first day back to work would be Monday, October 10th for our McDonald's board meeting. Help! I'm sooo scared. :'(

sleepover

I think we should plan a girls night/sleep over.  We could watch chick flicks/ satc/friends, eat candy, play makeup and just hang out.  Other than Elise's wedding, my schedule is pretty free.  We can do it here if you want. What do you guys think?

I'm Alive!

Hello friends. Sorry for my delayed blogging. These past two weeks have been crazy!! I'm happy to say that I'm slowing feeling better each day though. I have been leaving work early everyday this week... by about 3:00, I'm exhausted. I was in bed from 3-8pm last night! I'm so ready to be back to my old self again... it sucks to be sick during summer. Anyway, I'm reeeeally hoping to come canoeing for Drew's bday tomorrow. I won't be able to drink and definitely won't be staying all night, but at least I can see you guys for awhile! :)

We need to plan a girls day. We can do our favorite things... eat and shop. If you guys want to come to Fairlawn, the mall has some new stores! We now have a Sephora, Franchescas (my absolute favorite store right now!) and Aveda. Or I'm always up for a trip to Crocker Park.

Well, I better get back to work since I'll be leaving soon! Can't wait to see you both tomorrow.

P.S. I got out of my work event for Elise's bachelorette party so I'm definitely able to come.

News

So... I've started my own solo blog.  I really have no idea why, but I did.  It's called "A Place for Everything" and that's exactly what it is.  So far posts have been about home projects, recipes and ME!  The only person I've told about it is my mom (well and Aaron of course).  But now I'm telling you guys.  Eventually I'd like to get out into the blogging community more.  Basically I need something ongoing that is my own to distract me from my job.  I like it because it gives me a reason to start different projects around the house and keeps me on the ball.

So check it out when you get some time, and let me know what you think.  Feel free to leave comments.

A Place for Everything

Don't worry, I'll still post here for all the fun stuff :)

New Purchases

Westwood Studio had an open house last night with lots of product sales.  I got two of my huge pump-bottles of shampoo and conditioner for $25 total, which is awesome because they are $30 a piece when they aren't on sale.  I got a replacement of moisturizer, which I was almost out of.  But the fun things I got were nail polish and lipstick.

OPI Mermaids Tears

I put this on last night.  It is like an antiquey turquoise color.  I think it would be cute with a white top, grey cardigan, jeans, and turquoise earrings.  I also think it's a great summer toenail color.

Youngblood Rosewater

This is the lipstick Nina used on me for the wedding.  I like it because it actually has color.  I love my blankety, but it's also fun to wear a bit of color on my lips!

So that's my latest purchase.  I miss you guys!  NEED GIRL TIME ASAP!

The Hunt for the Perfect Curling Iron.

I am on the hunt for a new curling Iron.

I really dont know much about them, but I am a huge fan of curling my hair. I have one that is metal right now, but I have heard really good things about the ceramic ones. Also I have heard that using your straightener works really well as well. I feel as thought I am not handy enough to use my hair straightener.

I am going to make a trip to Ulta to check out some new ones, I will keep you posted on what I find out.

Also I am looking for a new really good Shampoo and Conditioner, Any Suggestions?
