Thanks!

Since this holiday is all about giving thanks I wanted to share a few things that I am thankful for (aside from the regular mushy I am thankful for my family blah blah blah) I mean I am very thankful for my wonderful family and friends and dogs but I just wanted to post some silly, fluffy and most importantly unnecessary things that I am thankful for:

1. That the cute girls at the espresso bar know my drink! They start making it when they see me coming- so predictability has it's upside!

2. Sweet tooth fairy's Van Niela cupcakes. Moist. Sweet. Perfect.

3. Sephora and even more than Sephora- Fresh's lemon sugar scrub! Amazing on your skin during this yucky dry weather! (Thank you Alice!)

4. Uno. The card game- just saying it's a pretty good time!

5. Brazilian Blowouts. Straight shiny hair with no flat iron?! Yes please! More on this later!

Cute Sleepwear

And being that I feel so wretched cute clothes are less appealing and cute jammies are seeming more appropriate. The pants are from anthro and the others are from Bloomingdale's. Also did you hear that at Fashion Place Mall we are getting an H&M! Utah's first! Also Crate and Barrel...

Sick

I have had a flu/cold/sinus thing for almost a week now and I would really like to feel better. You know when your sick your days are just lost? I know there was a Saturday but I'm not sure where it went? So I've been watching lots of movies and sleeping. Any suggestions on movies that are perfect for watching while hopped up on NyQuil?

44 days till Christmas!

Are you ready? Kate is!

I voted

Tonight I had to have a reality check with myself. I had a long stressful day. I have a new boss who I think I am going to like but who has given me some pretty high expectations. Combine that with a few other mishaps I was in a pretty bad mood then I went to vote and it was moving slow. I was actually thinking about leaving (don't judge me yet.. keep reading) when it occurred to me how lucky I am. I thought about less than 100 years ago women first earned the right to vote. I thought about what people all over the world would sacrifice to have some say in who was leading their country and here I am my biggest problem was the screaming toddler that the mother seemed immune to (somebody took their xanax) I know this post is cheesy but I was happy I could shake off being a spoiled lazy girl for a short time and show my son how important it is that you do your civic duty: read up on the candidates and vote!
