Show & Tell | A day in my life...

Tuesday, November 3, 2015

So I had high hopes of recording a day in my life on a Sunday, but that just didn't happen :(
So instead, you get to see what a day at work looks like with me.
Trust me, it is more fun than it sounds.
Come check it out!

My day started at 5:55am.

That is when my alarm goes off.
I typically lay in my bed for a few minutes after I turn off my alarm to get my body and eyes to truly wake up.
At this time, I quickly check Facebook, Instagram, emails, etc.
After doing that for about 5-10 minutes, I get up, splash some water on my face, put on my sports bra and head downstairs to get my workout in for the day.

6:15am - Workout
That 30 minutes is tough, but feels so good!
Then it is time to hop in the shower and get ready for work.
I mentioned before, during my shower is when I do oil pulling.
That 15-20 minutes flies by when I do it then. 

7:15am - Once out of the shower I get Mic and X to wake up if they aren't already up.
Get X's breakfast together for him to eat while I do my makeup and hair.

8am - Get breakfast and lunch packed for Mic and I and head to work.
This particular morning I did not have lunches prepped :(
But I did manage to throw a roast in the crock pot for dinner last night!

**So up until this point, I had totally forgot to take any pictures :( #bloggerfail

9am ish - Once at work I check the phone messages, emails, etc. while eating my breakfast.
#benefitsofowningyourownbusiness
Typical breakfast these days is half a whole wheat English muffin with peanut butter and some sliced strawberries.
Most of my morning looks the same.
Prepping appointments for Mic, checking emails, and skimming through some of my favorite blogs :)

9:30am - This is also when I write my Monday post.
Yes, I am a slacker.


Noon - Before you know it is lunch time.
Today I am having spinach with some shredded rotisserie chicken and a little bit of Bolthouse Ranch dressing.
Since Mic isn't here for lunch today, I am checking in on a few more blogs and writing this post as I go.

 2:30pm - More prep, more checking of emails, answering phones, and snacking on some grapes in the afternoon.

I headed out at 4:15 today to run a couple errands before picking up X from school.

4:15-4:30pm - I call my mom every day on my way to pick up X or run errands in this case.

4:45pm - Cranking the radio to some of my favorites on my way to get X :)

5pm -  Picking up X from school.



5:15pm - Home and into my comfy clothes for the night :)

5:30pm - Dinner is served!
It may not look like much, but this roast and carrots were so good!

6pm and on -  Play cars with X, have a mini dance party, and watch Big Hero 6.


7:45pm - Bath time

8:15pm - Starting to watch Supergirl :)

9:30pm - Lights out and bedtime for X, and most likely me.

Thanks for coming along for a day in my life :)

Jam Packed Weekend

Monday, November 2, 2015

Happy Monday!
I am back to work after a weekend full of fun!

On Friday afternoon, I swung through one of my very favorites places to check out the Christmas decor :)
Hobby Lobby was all about Christmas and I loved everything!

 We really need to upgrade our stockings this year, but I just couldn't figure out what ones to get :(

 Believe it or not, I only picked up one thing while I was there!
It is a white frame with gold letters that say "Oh holy night".
One of my favorite Christmas songs :)
Of course, I totally forget to take a picture of it and I can't find it online.

Saturday morning X and I hung out while Mic did some office work.
My sweet boy separated all of his Halloween candy into piles based on who likes each piece.
He had piles for me, Mic, my parents, Mic's parents, and his little friend Crew :)
The smallest pile of them all was his!
Boy does that kid melt me!

That afternoon we headed to Columbus to get our family pictures taken.
We promised X that if he smiled well he could go on the playground for a little bit.
Oh boy did that kid give good cheese :)
I can't wait to see them!










We rushed back for a Halloween theme dinner party with friends that evening.
 Seriously, look at all that food!!!

 There were kids of all ages there, but X loved getting to check out the little babies :)
 These two are a few months a part and were just eyeing each other up!

 We had a great night, but were exhausted when we got home around 11:30pm.
All three of us crashed and slept in on Sunday morning.

I did my normal Sunday morning grocery shopping and couldn't resist Starbucks!
Red cups are back!
So are the holiday drinks!
Eeek! Creme Brulee' Latte is heaven in a cup!


We, meaning I, watched the Browns game while the boys napped.
Thankfully, I did laundry and such while watching the game since they lost. Again. UGH!

That evening Mic and I rearranged some of the furniture upstairs and were able to set up X's bed.
YEH!
I am hoping to get things organized in each room this week so we can get our Christmas decor out.
AND, it can finally start feeling like a home!

 Oh, and remember that tunic I talked about on Friday?
It arrived on Saturday and I love it!
It is so soft, and the perfect length to pair with leggings!
Unfortunately, it is sold out right now :(

And that my friends was our weekend.
Did you take your kiddos trick-or-treating or pass out candy?
Who's ready to get their Christmas shopping started?
