Thursday Randomness Take 2

Just a little randomness for this fine Thursday :)  Apologies for missing yesterday, this week has been cray ;)

- I figured out how to get my pictures to be larger without running into my sidebar!  YAY!

- We're going through some major changes at my day job, so I've been pretty busy trying to get organized and doing research...hopefully it won't all be for nothing :)

- Today is technically the first day of spring!  I don't think Minnesota got the memo, but at least the sun is out today!  Still cold though.

-  I think I'm going to have to buy one of these when they're back in stock...and maybe this phone case to go along with it :)  My phone likes to do this weird thing where it says I have 30-40% battery left, then next thing its completely dead and has to be plugged in...and it always does it at the most inopportune times - like this past weekend when I was using it to find our way back to the garage where we parked downtown!  [Also, how cute is the stuff on that site??]

- I started reading The Lord of the Rings...because I had it on my kindle from a long time ago and had never read it...fingers crossed it doesn't take me the rest of the year to finish it (it took me FOREVER to read The Hobbit a few years ago) 

- Brian watched the Pretty Little Liars season finale with me the other night...I don't think he'll be tuning in again any time soon :) 

- Oooh, one of my brothers and his gf are talking about coming up for a visit this summer!  I'm super excited :)

- Also super exciting is that we got our Disney trip booked!  Well, we have our room booked :)  We're watching flights, and its too early to book restaurants yet.  We didn't snag a room on the monorail, but were able to get a 2 bedroom villa at the same resort we stayed at last summer, so we'll all be in the same suite, which will make things super convenient :)

- My sister-in-law just launched her own website!!  Its a site that reviews subscription boxes - check it out here!  She designed the site herself, and it looks fantastic :)

- Brian's bday is this Sunday, and I have no idea what we're going to do!  Or what to get him!  He mentioned getting his golf clubs fitted, so that's probably what we'll do :)  I'm hoping for a date night this weekend to go see Divergent, and maybe eat at this new ale house that just opened up in the area.  

That's all for now!  Lots to do today!  Hope you're having a wonderful Thursday!

Monday Morning Recap!

Well, we had a pretty uneventful weekend.  Both of us were feeling like a quiet weekend at home since last weekend was pretty crazy, and the next two weekends will probably be too (St. Patty's day followed by Brian's and a few friend's birthdays).  So, yet again, I don't have many pictures to add!

On Friday Brian came home for lunch, and we went to a local Sri Lankan restaurant that does a lunch buffet.  We were supposed to be meeting friends, but they got stuck at work, so it was just us.  After we ate, we ran to Home Depot to pick up some water softener salt (we were totally out...this is our first time having a water softener to worry about).  We spent the rest of the day at home, where I watched Pretty Little Liars on Netflix in between some chores, and we had leftovers for dinner.

Saturday morning I got up and got ready to go to the grocery store.  Brian decided he wanted to come with, so I then waited for him to get ready :). After shopping, we picked up lunch from Panera and came back home.  Again, we spent the rest of the day at home.  I worked on my planners and some stuff on the computer (and tried to get the 2013 Outlook calendar to color code like it used to...it doesn't, but I think I figured out a way to make it work for me). And I talked to my mom! Hi mom!!  Also, I watched more Pretty Little Liars (not sure how I got sucked in again...).  I stayed up way too late watching, and reading the hilarious recaps on Forever Young Adult (<- one of my favorite sites that I discovered a few months ago...and the main reason why this isn't strictly a TV blog, they were already doing what I would do!). The time change didn't help :)

At Target I found the super cute Mara Mi sticky notes that people have been posting on Instagram.  So cute, and on sale!!  (I grabbed some St Patty's & spring stickers too - my love for stickers and stationery is back in full force). 

                 

Sunday was spent doing laundry and watching PLL.  Yep, I'm a lazy, lazy dork :)  At least I got the laundry done! (Well, I still have one load to put away, but you know).

In good news, it was actually warmer this weekend!  Like, in the 30s & 40s!  We can see the pavement of our street again!!  Whoo-hoo!! :)

Hope you had a great weekend! Anything exciting to share??
