Book finished: How I Live Now
Reading: Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me?
On the Nightstand: Gentleman of Her Dreams by Jen Turano; American Gods by Neil Gaiman; The Strain by Guillermo del Toro and Chuck Hogan
Making Lists: Meal planning and grocery list. Now that J's back home, I need to take another look at our meal plans. Trying to mix a few favorites with a few new recipes.
Around the house: After my crafting open house yesterday (fun times!), there is crap everywhere. I don't want to throw all the crafting supplies back into the office without a plan. I need to pull all my retired SU products. Decided whether I want to keep said retired products. Prep to sell those I don't want. And organize what I am keeping. I also need to take a bit of inventory to help me destash. I feel a bunch of RAKs being packaged soon...
Farmer's Market Finds: We headed down on Saturday to stock up on sausages and popcorn. Yum yum!
Watching: Now that J's back, we'll probably start catching up on all the currently airing shows from the last two weeks. Last night we caught up on Workaholics and Cosmos, but that's it. I'm sure we'll be watching more TV this coming week.
Wondering: What are the best business strategies for my new crafting venture? I'm starting to form a business plan...
From Nature: It's been warm and sunny, it's been warm and breezy, it's been raining, and it's been cool and cloudy this week. Every time we had time to introduce Arthur to the pool, it was either too cold or raining. Hoping the weather stays sunny and warm next week so we can finally get down to the pool.
Shopping Scores: Obligatory Michael's visit. I run in to get snail, and look at all the stuff I bought! (Not shown: Door prizes for my crafting open house yesterday). I grabbed a cute desktop organizer that fits some of my PL cards, snail, pack of Amy Tangerine designed cardstock (really good weight), and the Inspirational PL Theme Pack.
I also received two RAKs in the mail. I'm especially loving the alphabet stickers. Can never have too many of those.
I received my PL Rain partial that I ordered from the FB group. So pretty! Finally I have some cards with purple in them. And I finally picked up a partial Midnight kit.
This past week I became a Stampin' Up demonstrator. That also means that I had to order my starter kit. $125 worth of product for $99! I got my total down to having $0.25 left. I'd say that I spent my money wisely.
