Five Friday Favorites

Friday, December 12, 2014

At last, I completed my only final exam yesterday and my break can officially start! I'm off to Daytona to spend time with Kyle, then we go on a cruise, then I go to Colorado... It's going to be a whirlwind of a break but I'm so excited! But for now, here is a little bit about how my week went...

1. After my haircut and color last Friday, I was inspired to spend my Monday cleaning and having a spa day. Many people might not put those two together, but cleaning is fairly therapeutic for me so it works! 

2. There is a great resale shop in Tallahassee that always has a great selection of brand name clothes, and I picked up a couple new tops to wear over break. I'm thinking the black and white one will be great for a date night with Kyle, and the tan striped one will be nice for our cruise.

3. As some of you might know, my little kitty boy Berlioz is prone to UTI's. Recently, he's had another bought of irritation, and so in order to save a little money at the vet I learned how to give him fluids with an IV to help flush out his system. I absolutely hate needles, so it was a huge deal for me to a) hold a needle b) stick my own cat with a needle and c) do it daily for almost a week. I finished up this wee, and it definitely wasn't easy, but I'm really proud of myself for taking that leap and facing my fears! Especially since this is going to be a lifelong problem for him, and something I will need to do again. 

4. In packing for my trip, I discovered just how hard it is to pack for three different climates over the course of a month! In order to avoid bringing too much excess clothes, I did a lot of trying things on, and this quote by Kate Spade came to mind. I definitely have to agree with her here!

5. I went out for burgers with my brother before I left town, since I won't see him until later this month. Gotta love brother-sister bonding time! 

Have a great weekend everyone!
