Monday Morning Ramblings – Labor Day Edition

Disclosure: If you make a purchase through the links posted below, I may receive a small compensation. Read the full disclosure.

~We’re up-north for most of the day today and then it’s back to reality. I need to go grocery shopping for lunch / snack stuff for my school boys (B and L) and get prepared for tomorrow, which is OMGTHEFIRSTDAYOFSCHOOL! I can’t even believe that it’s finally here! I’m so happy that L got one last blast of summer fun (and caught a record setting 4 fish yesterday) and even happier that the weather isn’t suppose to be amazing up here today, which would make it harder to leave.

~I’m expecting a few boxes this week, including the Jennifer Love Hewitt Fancy Box (I can’t wait for this one), The Homegrown Collective and Julep for sure. And I am SO hoping that a PopSugar box ships this week! Either the September box or the Special Edition. I don’t care, I just want one of them!

~As usual, Breaking Bad was incredible last night. I don’t know how they are going to be able to wrap all this up with only a few episodes left, but I am excited to see it all go down. I don’t know what’s happened on Big Brother since Aaryn got evicted last week though. Can anyone update me?

~Congrats to Saskia Nap******a. who won the August Mini Favorite Things Giveaway and Isabella L*****i who won the Stella & Dot giveaway!!  I’ll be e-mailing you ladies shortly and will get your prizes out as quickly as possible!  I feel like the multiple August giveaways went well, except I will admit I wasn’t the best about shipping everything in a timely manner.  I’m not sure what I’ll do for September yet, but stay tuned!

~I *should* have a payout coming from Twice this week (and they also have a Labor Day sale today on every item they have today) and I have another bag coming from thredUP.  I *just* sent one in and just placed an order for some stuff for L, but my clean out mission is serious and these bags can only fit so much, so I needed more!  Plus, it doesn’t hurt that you get a 20% off code every time you send in a bag to thredUP ;).  What’s better than a good deal?  An even better deal!

~I mentioned it before, but I have been sucking down the Diet Pepsi’s again.  I ran out of my favorite Spark (Fruit Punch) and turned to the dark side.  I have more on the way though so hopefully this is just a brief addiction!

~And this post (and yesterday’ Sunday Sentiments) don’t have pictures because they upload slow and I am lazy.  I don’t like posts with no pictures, so I will make up for it with Thursday Thoughts for sure ;).

That’s it from here!  How was your weekend?  Any big Labor Day plans? What do you have going on this week?  Any boxes coming??

Spread the love

    Big brother update. And by the way I follow the big brother leak on twitter and they post everything early!! So Ginamarie is hoh and put up Amanda and Makray. Makray won pov and that should be held sometime today. Spencer is supposed to go up in his place sending crazy lady packing!!! About time!! Thursday is another double eviction.

    I start school tomorrow too – I feel the same way you do *insert all caps and no space words here* so I’m getting things in order for that! As far as Big Brother goes, Amanda continues to be a terror – pointing her finger at Elissa and accusing her of all the annoying things that Amanda herself does. Everyone else just gawks and sits uncomfortably. GinaMarie won HOH and *drum roll please* FINALLY nominated McManda!!! Such ugly behavior on this show this season. Did you laugh during Julie’s interview with Aaryn? It was uncomfortable lol

    I am a newcomer to this blog world and I am loving it. I like everything you post and I hope you don’t get offended but I am getting some ideas for my blog by checking yours out. I’d like to get an audience so I can start getting sponsors and making a little cash. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    OMG! This has been the best week of BB yet this season! I have even been watching Afterdark to watch Amanda’s descent into Crazytown! She has lost it!
    SPOILER:
    GM won HOH and seriously played McCranda. She had them believing that Elissa and Judd were going up, but blindsided them instead. I could tell you more (stuff that hasn’t aired yet) but I don’t want to ruin it if you don’t want to know yet 😉

    I have to say, I love watching Amanda lose it! She’s freaking psycho!

    Hope L has an awesome first day of school! And hope you aren’t too sad that he’ll be gone all day. Enjoy! 🙂
