We have delayed school opening because of the winter storm we had yesterday. Our backyard is a skating rink…

So what do kids do? They wouldn’t miss this opportunity to go sledding! On ice!

diy vanity

Saturday, February 3rd, 2018

I purchase this sad old desk from an antique store for $15 and I sanded it down and gave a fresh coat of paint. Then I put this venetian mirror I bought from another antique store in Montclair for $75.  The ottoman is a purchase I made from Caitlin Wilson 8 weeks ago that finally arrived. 

birthday treat

Friday, February 2nd, 2018

My friend’s been giving me bliss spa gift cards for my birthdays over the years and realizing that I haven’t used it, she made me take the day off and meet her at the spa. What a treat!

My before & after facial pictures. What a difference. 🙂

Then we headed over to Nobu57 to have lunch. Yum!!! My 5 course lunch bento box:

Thank you so much for making my day so special Renna!! 😉

Love this blanket I purchased for the Hygge themed room.

I was very proud of what I accomplished…then there’s always that nonsense labor I had to do as part of being a “team player” such as this:

Biz trip

Saturday, January 27th, 2018

Back in Florida for my annual business trip. I do love coming here but it’s always very intense and I leave feeling so beat.

This picture do not reflect how my day was. 😉 I just took this picture to send it to my family, ha! Probably only 5 sec. I got to relax at 7 a.m.  before the mayhem happened.

date with Chloe

This girl…

loves to eat, just like me!

The boys are home, not feeling so well so it was only Chloe and I who went to church this morning. So we had a lovely lunch afterwards just the two of us and went to Barns & Nobles (her favorite place!) and bought many books for her to read. 🙂

Date with shane..sort of

Friday, January 19th, 2018

This guy scared me last night when he said he’s been having a chest pain…maybe his heart or lung pain. Couldn’t sleep, first thing I did was taking him to see his doctor. Rest assured, he’s okay. It’s more likely muscle ache than anything else, the doctor confirmed. After the doctor visit, I decided to take the rest of the day off and take care of his bad cavity he was scheduled to go in next month to extract. Luckily the dentist was able to see him right away so she took out the tooth and we even got to get started on orthodontic treatment plan. Yes he’s getting braces soon.

We did some grocery errands together afterwards and then it was time to pick-up Chloe at school. Though it was a lot of running around, it’s rare that I spend time with just him, so I really enjoyed our conversations and hanging out with my boy all day. You’re alright, kid.
