Few Things Friday.

Ahhhh!

New job = super busy.

Learning, listening, doing, struggling, succeeding, failing, trying, striving and climbing.

I will make it.

In the meantime, here are a few things for a much anticipated Friday.

1. I like my outfit today. Look! I even took a picture for you all. Is that weird? I look like I’m trying to be sultry, but rest assured, that is not the case. This photo was taken at 8 am at my desk. At work. Not a place to be sulty (nor, probably, a place to be taking a photo of yourself). But whatever it takes to get me through the day. And note the shoes!  So worth the fail.

2. One day this week, I headed downtown for an afternoon meeting. All of a sudden, my colleagues starting ordering desserts. Caramel apple pie with cinnamon ice cream, flourless chocolate torte, and even a mile-high carrot cake with layers of carrot cake and cream cheese frosting. So help me, and my thought of trying to eat healthier. Dinner here didn’t help either. This week did not go well in that regard (unless you count the one day this week that I was SICK and had no appetite).

3. Cecilia. She’s one! I miss her so. And making the trip down to St. Louis for her birthday party last weekend was SO worth the trip. She’s sassy and super and sensational. Just look.

4. My husband is the best. So patient and fun and understanding and mellow and level-headed and smart and rationale and hilarious and amazing. Neither of us are perfect, but we work. Love.

5. Downton Abbey. Bry and I just started watching, and so far so good. Downton Abbey mania!

Happy Weekending!
