~Yay Monday!  I know most people don’t really get excited for Monday’s, but B has today off (he does have school tonight though) which is awesome since he had drill all weekend.  So we are going to run a few errands, hit up LUSH (Ocean Salt, Cupcake Fresh Face Mask, Bubble Bars, Each Peach and who knows what else?), find some rain boots for the boys (why don’t we have any?) and that sort of thing.  Not really exciting, but I am excited!

I love this picture!

~I mentioned it last night, but I spent some time this weekend cleaning out the boys drawers and closets and getting rid of everything that they have outgrown.  Next up is bags to thredUP / Moxie Jean and getting things ready for the garage sale.  My spare bedroom looks like a children’s resale store threw up in there.  I also got my bags for The Fashion Project, so I need to get some stuff together for that as well!  Spring Cleaning around here is happening and I am taking it super serious!

Did I mention my relatives are staying in here this weekend?

~In case you missing it this weekend (I like to sneak those giveaways up on Saturdays ;)), I am giving away a Nina Garcia Quarterly Co. box, so make sure you go enter!

~B went to bed super early last night (like it was still light out) and so I watched my old Newlyweds DVD’s.  All those years and I still have those DVD’s.  I was deciding between Sex In The City and Newlyweds, but realized I don’t have SATC on DVD (where did those go?), so Newlyweds it was!  Looking back I can totally see why Nick & Jessica didn’t work out, but I so wish they would have.  Man I loved that show.

I used to love the Osbournes too!

~I am expecting tons of subscription boxes this week including Monthly Love, PäshBox, the latest Citrus Lane Mystery Box, Mama’s Got Mail, a Fancy Mystery Box, a Mother’s Day Fancy Box and I am guessing my GLOSSYBOX Mother’s Day Box!

~I don’t know if I will get a chance to post about it, but the May Golden Tote sale goes live today at 9am PST / 12pm EST!  And if you are going to try (again) for the Allure Summer Beauty Box, that’s tomorrow at 12:01pm EST!  You may want to set alarms for both so you can get the Golden Tote picks you want and Allure will be sold out within probably 5-10 minutes MAX, so be ready!

~And finally, Adam Levine.  Why?  Is The Voice on tonight?  I am totally tuning in to hear what everyone has to say about this!  Wait, are the ratings down?  Is that what this is about?  Whatever, I am watching regardless!

He kind of looks like Eminem

 What’s up for your Monday?  How was your weekend?  What subscription boxes are you expecting this week?  And if you haven’t signed up for my Newsletter yet, the next one is going out today at 9am, so do it now!!!

    I am expecting my Birchbox In Full Bloom box this week…it is taking FOREVER.

    Also, I think a book club would be fun!

    1. Jennifer

      I hope it gets their fast!

  2. S

    Aww, that’s a lovely pic! Lush on a Monday?! Sigh, I am jealous of u! 🙂
    I got my Citrus lane Mysetery box on Saturday.. I saw the shipping notification after the box was delivered, it was that fast! 😀 had a ton of good stuff! 1 box Eco kids dough, a puzzle, a clarinet, a book from barefoot books, Melissa and Doug rainbow stacker, Pearhead hand and foot imprint canvas, Annie’s snacks & the skip hop plate and bowl.
    Loved it!

    On another note I still haven’t received my April Glossybox and my account still shows ‘Pack’. I’m so disappointed since this was my first Glossybox. 🙁 do u know if people still haven’t received theirs?

    1. Jennifer

      I know people are still waiting on them! I don’t know what the hold up was this month with some peoples, but you are totally not alone!

      That box sounds great! I can’t wait to get mine!

  3. Elizabeth

    My Julep is coming today! I didn’t get any polish though, so no plie wand for me this time.

    1. Jennifer

      I got mine today too! I haven’t gotten a chance to use the pile wand yet. I am hoping tomorrow!

  4. Allison

    I’ll live vicariously through you and your LUSH trip today! 🙁 Have fun! I’m at work. The closest one to me is an hour away.

    1. Jennifer

      It was fun! It would probably be better if mine was further!

  5. Barbie

    I love the how fierce Adam is trying to look coupled with that fact that he has hundreds of little kittens on his man tank.

    1. Jennifer

      I didn’t even notice that!

  6. Lauren

    if you are heading to the mall Nordstroms has the cutest fireman rain boots I got a matching pair for my boys we literally get stopped every time do they wear them

    1. Jennifer

      I LOVE those! They only had a limited supply of any kind of boots left and had to get them out of the back room for me. I got superman for L and had to order some online for WB!

  7. Beth

    Adam! WHY!?!?!? That is awful…….

    I had to redo my budget….so many boxes came out – sadness. I’ll be living vicariously (I mean, I’m still getting one more PopSugar, 2 more Social Bliss’, IPSY for another few months, and I couldn’t bring myself to cancel on Nina – still might have to, but I have time…but still – lol) on all your deliveries!

    1. Jennifer

      Well, it sounds like you will be okay for a while at least. And there is still time to win the lotto in between right???

    I just got my glossybox today, meh. But the WTH? goes once again to fancy box, coca rocha box sent a pastel rooster throw pillow. Someone, pls let me know if chickens are the spring fashion trend I didn’t know about, sigh.

    1. Jennifer

      What did she send before?? Something else with a rooster?

  9. Bethany

    Ahhhh Golden Tote. What craziness. I literally clicked refreshed every two seconds until it started, immediately added my items, then got an error (as did many other people), and by the time I finally got it to work, one of my items was gone. Insanity! So glad you get B home for the day. I don’t mind being alone with my daughter, but it’s always more fun when my husband’s here to play with us!

    1. Jennifer

      It is always more fun! And since he was gone all weekend, it was even more fun!

    I am super excited about a book club I would LOVE that! I read on my eReader so I don’t have any to trade but I did join your group! 🙂

    I want to watch the Newlyweds so bad now, Ill have to order the season on Amazon today.

    I was so excited I got an email form PopSugar that my box shipped I was so excited (I did not get last months box till like the 28th and I wanted to die!) but today when tracked it says it will be delivered on the 14th! Damn 10 days to get to me from NY is crazy! This is gonna be a long week….

    Did you ombre your hair?? I think I will try it tonight!

    1. Jennifer

      Hopefully it comes sooner! Mine shipped today and I am HOPING it will be Saturday. We’ll see.

      I did! Nothing really happened though! I posted about it on Sunday. I did it 2x!

  11. Tammy

    I got my PashBox today. It will be interesting to see if we got the same things.

    1. Jennifer

      I got mine today too! What’d you think?

  12. Jennifer C

    This May sounds crazy but I noticed your dog skip hop item in your “children’s resale shop”…. Is it a lunchie? I am looking for one lol. Is it up for swap or sale? Like a digital garage sale? HA!

    1. Jennifer

      LOL. I should. That is a dog lunch! Do you need anything else from the dog line? Randomly, I have more……

      1. Jennifer

        I am in fact! I have the backpack, weekender and snack bags so I think that leaves the lunchie and rolling luggage. I am also looking to buy up all of the boy/neutral skip hop bibs. I didn’t realize that trying new foods for the first time would stain all of the other bibs I have…..

        1. Jennifer

          LOL!!!!!! My bibs are all such a mess. I will e-mail you. Or e-mail me!

  13. amanda

    wow – i was a nick & jessica lover, too. I still love the comments about the “Fish of the Sea” and also the “hummer” comment. Oh, she’s oh so dumb. Or naive. Or both. I dunno. But it was a great show. I’m very happy he’s moved on and is even happier now, though 🙂 And I’m happy that I’m not the only person out there who loved that show! ha!
    (ps – I like the osbournes, too!!!)

    1. Jennifer

      I will admit that I watched the Chicken of the Sea episode last night and could not stop laughing.

  14. Heather

    Adam, Adam, Adam… just- no.

    1. Jennifer

      LOL!

  15. Stacey

    I haven’t watched Newlyweds in so so long, this makes me want to go find my DVD’s stashed away somewhere!
