Five of my current favorites:

1 - Sarah M. Eden books.

2 - Making recipe pages with the Project Life app. Also printing the pages at Persnickety Prints - love the quality, speed, and the fact that they offer print credits with most sales, so I can buy the credits and then order the prints when I'm ready to do so. Here's one that I made:

The cards are from the Everyday Edition of Project Life. The recipe can be found here. 

3 - My new pjs. I bought this top and these bottoms. So cute and comfy! And the color combination is quickly becoming one of my favorites. I want to make some Christmas cards with those colors with a little red added in.

4 - The Mysteries of Laura. 

5 - My Get To Work Book. So glad I bought it. I had an issue with something else I ordered and Elise took care of it right away. Gotta love great customer service! I just wish the weeks went from Sunday-Saturday instead of Monday-Sunday. I know that's the trend and a lot of people like it that way, but I've been using it since July, and I still struggle with that. On Sunday, I'm ready to move on to a new week and the plans for that week, instead of finishing up the previous week. Maybe I'm weird, but that's how it goes for me.

Five things you may or may not know about me:

1 - I don't like anyone around when I brush my teeth.

2 - I like to play video games. A current favorite is The Simpsons Tapped Out. I also love Mario games, especially Paper Mario, and Sims games.

3 - I'm a daydreamer. I will daydream while I'm alone in my office, and then when I walk out in the hallway, I have to watch myself to make sure I'm not going to start making funny expressions because I'm still lost in a daydream.

4 - I like my desk at work to be organized and as spotless as possible. My space at home can be very disorganized and cluttered, and I'm ok with it. Until one day it will drive me completely crazy and I have to spend a few days getting everything put back where it goes.

5 - I love the Michael Kohrs brand. I only own two items in that brand, which I bought with gift cards, but I keep eyeing a few other things. If I had the money, I would own a lot more of that brand.

five on tuesday

On some of the blogs I read, the bloggers do posts like this. I enjoy reading them, so I thought I'd write one myself. I'd like to do it weekly, but we all know my blog tends to get neglected quite often. :-)

1- My Love-Hate Relationship With All Things Cyber

I can totally relate to this, and she makes really good points. I probably spend too much time on the Internet and social media, and that's even with limiting my Facebook time to once a month or so, (for multiple reasons) but I'm addicted to Instagram right now, (because those who know me, know I love photos) and I follow more blogs than I make the time to stay caught up on. And yes, I know it's a little ironic that I'm posting that link on my blog. 

2- Harry Potter Themed Rooms 
I would love to visit London one day, and I would love to stay here for a night or two. I love Harry Potter.

3- Ally Carter's New Book 
I can't wait for this to come out, but I don't want it to be January yet. I loved her Gallagher Girls and Heist Society series, and I can't get this book out of my mind since I read the excerpt on her blog yesterday. 

4- Good Life by Jenny Meyerson
Great blog post on gratitude, but just a warning, it may make you cry. There is always something to be grateful for. And the video that is linked to at the end of the post is really cute. 

5- "If it is important to you, you will find a way. If it's not, you'll find an excuse." 

I saw this the other day, and I have to agree. It bugs me sometimes when people say they don't have time for something (even though I have said that too), whether it be scrapbooking, cleaning, exercising, going somewhere, blogging, reading, or any number of things. Everyone has different priorities, and if something is important enough to you, you will find a way.

Well, that's it for tonight. Hopefully, you like this post, and I will try to be back soon with something else. Thanks for stopping by!
