Hi, sweet ones! Short and sweet today, because I’m heading into the city for meetings soon but two promises that I will keep: 1) I will follow you all back and 2) I will get better about blogging in general. This weekend will be spent packing and snuggling Buster because rain and movers are coming on MONDAY and OMG, there are so many things to do. Deep breaths, and let’s get started! As always, don’t forget to follow and link up with Lindsay and Beth!
Here’s my happy:
Our closing on Monday. I’ll be honest—I was a ball of nerves, convinced something would go wrong the day of, but it’s done and we get the keys on Sunday!
This gift (which came with a sweet note) from my friend and former landlord <3
The Woman in Cabin 10. If you like mystery, intrigue, murder, and boats, THIS IS FOR YOU. Seriously, it’s one of the best books I’ve read in a while, and I look forward to the evening when I can read by nightlight
Spending time with my friend and her baby (and sneaking in this pic–isn’t it the cutest?!)
Macy’s Backstage. Scored THE CUTEST THINGS (2 jackets, 2 shirts, and a sweater—all under $100!)
Text messages that quite literally make me laugh out loud
Cooking! I have abandoned it lately because of the move, but this week I made potato and black bean enchiladas, whole wheat pasta with neat (a meat substitute for meatballs), and a vegan corn chowder. All yum!
What’s on your gratitude list, and what’s on tap for the weekend? Let me know in the comments!
Hey babe! Happy new house once again! I am just so happy for you I could burst. That picture with your friend’s baby is the cutest! And what a sweet and perfect gift for you with that rescue sign! I love it! Have a great weekend my dear! Much love! XOXO
Yay for closing! You are so close I’m sure you can taste it! Also such a great time to move. No cold weather or snow and ice to slip on. Of course I’m bitter because I slipt and fell on ice once moving in the winter time. No fun. That sign is the cutest. We had signs like this all over my office when I worked for my local SPCA. Always made me smile! Happy weekend friend!
Rescued is my favorite breed too. That reminds me that I got a dog DNA test for Astro today. Yay! And that The Woman in Cabin 10 was good! I don’t want to give anything away.. but her descriptions of Scandinavia? Blew me away.
Congrats on closing! That is so exciting!
Yay for getting the keys today. Everything will be a-okay, so no stressing!!! I definitely had a lot of rain this weekend but it was still nice – and I got to see Mama Mia: Here We Go Again! which was really fun. Aw, love the photo of you and your friend’s baby. And that little sign is too sweet. 🙂

Sounds like you had a nice week – and a busy week ahead!
I love that doggie plaque and congrats on your closing!! It’s super stressful because they leave the $$ amount kind of vague and you think it will all fall apart at the last minute.

So much work goes into moving – hope everything went well yesterday.
That book sounds interesting – I think it is on my TBR list (otherwise I must go add it).
