~Happy Labor Day! I hope everyone has the day off today and gets to enjoy the long weekend today! We don’t have any real plans other than laundry and the grocery store (and I need to dye my hair), but if it’s nice out I am hoping we can do a little geocaching and go to the park.
~I have a variety of boxes coming this week including Julep, PopSugar Must Have Fall Style, Five Four Club, the Allure Beauty Box, Hazel Lane, The Pantry Gourmet Bite Box and Blue Velveteen. My PopSugar isn’t schedule to arrive until the 10th, but that seems crazy for it to take that long so I am thinking maybe by the end of this week? I am really hoping that someone gets theirs tomorrow so we can get some spoilers on it!
~What book (books) are you reading right now? I am planning to finish up The Light Between Oceans from my August Paper Dots box today and am looking for a new recommendation. Maybe something I can rent on my iPad from the library?
~Okay, so the other day I got this e-mail from match.com about how my profile picture just got changed. And then I started getting all these winks and messages and stuff from guys in Philadelphia. What? It turns out that somehow my match account (I had one years ago when I would help my friend who was on match check out potential guys) got hacked. Or something? It was my account but someone else’s pictures and info? Super weird. I felt bad shutting this girls game down because she seemed popular with the guys, but I didn’t know what else to do! And it appears you can never totally cancel that account. It just lets me deactivate. Not cancel outright. Is this true?
~Wait, I didn’t know that Ashley Simpson was dating Diana Ross’ son? Well, not just dating, but now married to? I did hear about Joan Rivers though and hope this all turns out better than it’s looking ;(. I like her. And does anyone know when Eva Mendes (aka Ryan Goslings baby mama) is due? It’s got to be soon right? Heck, for all we know she already had that baby.
What’s up for your Labor Day? Any big plans this week? And of course, what subscription boxes are you expecting?
wheeeeee i have interwebs! but, until fedex and ups magically decide that i actually own my house, i cannot use the delivery manager/my choice because they can’t verify me. WAH.
Oh no!!!! I wonder how long that takes? You are going to have to track manually! The horror! When is the baby coming?
it’s like 3 months (for the update). 2.5 weeks for baby. so i guess i won’t sweat it for a while. i did redirect a UPS package for $5 the other day, that was super exciting.
We are busy getting ready for the new week. Enjoy your beautiful day. What color are you dying your hair? I had my hair dyed an auburn color last week.
I think this week I should be receiving the Quarterly Bianca Jade box, Cate and Chloe, and Wantable Intimate. Maybe PopSugar LE and Escape Monthly Best of box. I also ordered the moisturizer that was in the August Gourmet Body Treat box and it should be arriving tomorrow.
That’s crazy about Match. I guess nothing ever truly goes away once it is on the internet.I’m impressed that you still have the same email address after all that time! It seems like I keep mine for about 3-4 years and then dump it once the spam becomes too much.
Oh I think I still have my first ever hotmail account! I never let them go!
You sound like you have a great week of boxes!
I am just dying it to cover the gray hairs!
I started Wild by Cheryl Strayed last night. The movie is supposed to be out soon (I think) and stars Reese Witherspoon. So far so good!
Awesome! Thanks for the recommendation!
I’m waiting for my PopSugar LE, Allure and Julep this week. FedEx says my popsugar is in transit from Sacramento since Saturday and scheduled for delivery on the 9th. That seems absurd since that’s only 5 hours away from my house. Hopefully they update the status tomorrow and I get it this week!
On the agenda today, shopping at Michaels to stock up on scrapbooking materials to work on my daughters album. I’m behind by 4 months. I may just sneak in to TJ Maxx to see if they have Glam Glow!
That seems total absurd for it to take nearly 2 weeks to travel 5 hours! You could walk there more quickly.
route 54 yardsale weekend was wonderful we had so much fun saturday driving around hunting and finding fun stuff for us its all about the hunt. we found a little bit this weekend i got 2 walmart bags full of beer bottle caps which will go towars making a patio table they were free and i got a walmart sack full of beads for 50 cents plus several bags of crafty stuff to add to my craft room like i need more stuff in there especially since we are going to be moving soon and we are trying to get stuff sorted and ready for the move at the end of the month havn’t decided if we are having a yardsale or just puting it on free cycle and letting it go
That sounds amazing! I wonder if my area does anything similar? I need to look it up.
Have you read “Where’d You Go Bernadette” yet? It’s probably one of the most hilarious novels I have read yet to date.
I have not! I bet that would be one the library would have too!
A second vote for Bernadette…my favorite book a few years ago and roundly loved by my book club!
I just finished reading The Husband’s Secrest by Liane Moriarty. She’s a good writer and it’s a quick read. Mostly because you can’t put it down once you start.
I will check it out!
Ohhh do I understand those match.com frustrations. My “legit” “professional” email is too common and can apply to so many people that I keep getting all these random dating site emails from people who used the wrong email by accident. It is so hard to make it stop and many times I just had to go into the account and have it changed to another email that does not exist. I like to forward the really weird ones to my friends. And some of those sites are sketchy sounding….like the one where it seemed like almost a mail bride service for Russians….
Oh no!! That is awful. I was seriously stumped on why I was getting all these e-mails. And why can’t I close my account? I’m going to be on there forever!
Just spent the day at the pool. Now getting ready for school tomorrow and C starts preschool back on Wed. I’m also trying to figure out how to work a weekend trip down to WDW for MNSSHP. So not seeing how it will work but I’m getting determined. LOL
What is MNSSHP??
Mickey Not So Scary Halloween Party
I would recommend the wayward pines series by Blake Crouch. I think the names of the books are Pines, Wayward, and The Last Town. There all good quick reads. They are mystery thrillers and are suppose to become a series directed by M. Night Shamalan(spelling) next summer. I am now reading the Maze Runner which is also pretty good. Happy Reading.
Thanks!!!
I admit to being a bit heartbroken about Joan Rivers. Folks may not have liked her as a comedian, but she was an awesome, hardworking woman who really broke down the glass ceiling for women in comedy. And I’ve been buying her jewelry since she came out with her stuff decades ago.
I really hope she pulls through. It was just so unexpected.
