Weekend Wrap-Up

I can't believe April is over already. Spring seems to be going fast! I better hurry up and plan our anniversary trip because it'll be here soon. Even the weekend went too fast for me.

Friday I taught fourth grade and after school, I headed to the local library. They were have a big book sale and I was hoping to score some good stuff. I didn't find anything interesting in the adult books, but I did manage to score six children's books for only $1.85. I was pretty happy with that! I would've gotten more, but another teacher got there right before me and she had some stuff in her pile I would've loved to have.

Saturday, we went out for a late lunch with some friends at a local Amish style restaurant. It's one of my favorite local restaurants and we celebrated some good news with pie. I had a really delicious slice of fresh strawberry pie that you saw if you follow me on Instagram. (My name is Argyle Love.) Afterwards, we did some shopping.

Sunday, I had a productive day after Mass. I got some blogging done and prepared some stuff for blogging. I did a load of laundry which is always a small victory for me. I even managed to do some Pilates! I forgot how tough that can be when you're out of shape. I'm paying for it today with some sore shoulders.

Overall, it was a satisfying weekend.

How was your weekend?

Pinterest Sunday

Time for my weekly Pinterest roundup! Every Sunday, I share with you a few of my top finds from the previous week.

Since one year ago today, this happened...

I thought I'd celebrate by posting some of my favorite Duchess of Cambridge looks I've pinned over the last year.


This McQueen military inspired look was divine on her.


This fascinator that she wore on Canada Day was too cute.


I loved this velvet gown.


This casual look convinced me that I need some colored denim.


I want this dress for myself. And her hair!


And of course, my new motto.

Doctor Who's Day - Least Favorite Season

I'm doing Doctor Who's day a couple days late, but I wanted to do it so I don't get off schedule. Today's topic is least favorite season.

This was an easy decision. My least favorite season is the season that wasn't really a season. See, David Tennant 3 regular seasons, but then he wanted to work on other things and still be the Doctor. So, instead of doing a regular season of Doctor Who, he did 4 specials.

I didn't like it because the specials were spread out over a year. They also didn't do much to advance the story until the end when he regenerated. Also, I just plain didn't like one of the specials, only tolerated another, and the last two made me sad.



I would've much rather just had a regular season even if it meant having a different Doctor.

Which season is your least favorite?

Life

Sorry for the lack of blog posts this week, but sometimes life just happens, you know? I actually did have a couple planned this week, so hopefully I can get this out before the week is over.

I didn't mention this, but on Saturday after my awesome Vera Bradley day, I came home and just felt awful. I couldn't get warm, but my face was hot. M had been sick on Thursday and Friday and it looked like I had finally gotten it. I ended up having a fever that night and spent a lot of Sunday in bed. Luckily, I felt better Monday morning because I had to work.

Speaking of work, for some reason, the end of the school year means subs are in high demand. I'm booked every day this week and already have two days scheduled next week. I'm glad for the jobs and the money, but it is tiring. I spent my afternoon wrangling kindergartners, then went to the grocery store where I wanted to hurt people because they were acting stupid and by the time I got home, all I wanted to do was sit down and not get up until bedtime.

So yeah, blogging is not real high on my list right now. I promise it'll happen soon though!

How's life treating you lately?
