things I'm loving this week

Hello there,
I thought I needed to put something else up so that my excited toilet paper purchase would be moved down the list :)

Here are some random things that are bringing joy to my life this week...

1. Coffee with Hillary and Melissa.
I just love these girls and our times together. Their weddings are motivating me to get my arms toned up! ha

2. My bedroom
I found some new bedding over spring break and have moved the bed, gotten some new shears, and put some frames up on the wall. It is slowly becoming a place I enjoy, while previously it was my least favorite room in the house.

3. American Idol
What can I say, it's a guilty pleasure. I really like Danny Gokey and Allison. Adam is growing on me. **This just in--Scott got moved to the bottom 3. I feel sorry for him but he needs to go**

4. Morning workouts
I have a new early morning workout buddy, Kristen. It helps me to get up in the mornings when I know that someone is counting on me to be there.

5. Good Friday
So excited for a day off. It would have been nice to have Monday, but it's all good. I'll take what I can get!

6. Tom Thumb pizza
On Friday, I bought a pizza at Tom Thumb for $5 Fridays. I made it Friday and have had it for dinner for five nights total. What a deal, and it tastes great!!

8. DRESSES!!!!
Last summer, I fell in love with dresses. They are so comfy and make you feel just a tad dressed-up. I can throw my hair in a ponytail and be on my way. The best part is, I still look somewhat put together. I haven't donned a pair of shorts since college except for work out purposes. The discovery of cellulite in the summer of 2000 scarred me forever (I can remember the exact day when I noticed it in Vicksburg, MS--haha). Anyway, check out Ross and TJ Max for great deals. Dresses can be found for $15 or less and they are an entire outfit!! Oh, and I got a nicer one at Stein Mart that I wore today. I got a ton of comments on it so you might want to try that Boutique section of Stein Mart...you can find some cute stuff at great prices!

9. Google Reader
Melissa told me about this Monday and it's awesome. Now I can check my blogs at work without having to click all over the place....just in case Big Brother is watching ;)

10. Laser Hair Removal
Some girls from work and I signed up for this a couple of weeks ago. It's my 30th birthday gift to myself. Anyway, if you want to know more specifics as to what I'm doing, let me know! I'm doing it with American Laser and they have a great referral program so sign up!!! I had my first treatment today and it wasn't bad at all.


That's all I've got for now! Hopefully I'll have something more fun to post about later.

Good list. I hope you're going to post a picture of your bed! Also, I totally think it was Scott's time to go. I personally am not a huge fan of "Lil", but it is what it is! haha
