Friday Letters

An extra post for today. I drafted this up at work and didn't want it to go to waste. ;)

Dear Teachers, You make me so jealous with your summer vacations and to do lists. Where were you all when I was 18 and deciding on a major? Why didn't anyone tell me HOW AWESOME IT WILL BE TO NOT WORK in the summer? Especially when you become a Mom?!

Dear Payday, Thank the heavens. Unfortunately you are probably already spent but whatever.

Dear Amazon Prime, I hope you are amazing as everyone claims you are. I just signed up and placed my first order -- partly paid with a gift card I won online. Word.

Dear Chick Fil A, You are so delicious but SO FAR AWAY from my home. I have to leave for work like thirty minutes earlier just to indulge.

Dear Target, I hope you're ready for me. I have a Shopping List that's a mile long.

Dear Dunkin' Donuts, I passed my glucose tolerance test. We do not have to break up! Win.

Dear Spinach, I really should have eaten you more often. I'm "a little" bit anemic. Looks like they're putting my on some prescription iron pills!

Dear Weekend, I am so looking forward to not having any solid plans this go round.

Dear Husband, Even though I don't want to do much but lie low this weekend...I still want to at least cook for you on Sunday. Daddy to Be Day! ;)

Dear Cannon [ Baby to be in case you are new around these parts! ;) ], You are quite the mover and shaker! Sometimes you take my breath away when you move. It is still hard to believe that you're IN there. I've seen the proof (and obviously felt it)... but sometimes I'm like... "Really? Is there a baby coming soon?" It is hard to process! We love you already and it's scary to think you could be making your arrival in ten weeks.





Oh, and P.S. Dear Erin Condren, I will NOT be sucked in again. My life planner sits mostly unused so I will NOT be pre-ordering my 2013 copy. Yes, you added laminated tabs. Oh, and you threw in some colorful pens. But considering my 2012 edition is basically just a file folder for my bills... I'm not getting the new one. I did, however, buy a Take Note Notebook and threw in the calendar pages. Ya know, just in case I decide to document/take notes/get organized. ;)

We love Amazon Prime in our house! In fact, I think just because we have it, we end up ordering stuff we don't really need ;)
And leaving for work 30 minutes is TOTALLY worth it for some chickfila breakfast!

I love this post. Yes, Prime is awesome! Fast and free shipping on lots of things & if you pay for it...free movie streaming too (they have movies Netflix doesn't...I FINALLY watched Mean Girls the other day). ....and as far as Erin Condren goes...who do you think you are fooling? : P

I'm new to your blog, found it via Friday Letters (obv.)

I love amazon prime! Did you know that since your a mom (or mom to be) you can sign up for a free trial of Amazon Mom. It was my saving grace when my little man was born. I was totally bummed when it ran out and I couldn't afford to pay the monthly subscription, but it was worth it whole it lasted!

Cute blog! I'll be dropping back by!

Wow, I almost never hear people say they didn't like their Erin Condren life planner! I've been really wanting one for next year . . . but maybe now I should reconsider if there are cheaper options. Yay for the weekend, in any case!

Everyone is raving about this Chik Fil A and I've never had it... I guess I'll have to try since there is one fairly close to me. As for the Erin Condren planner... my friend has it and loves it, but it's just too big and heavy... It's quite overwhelming. I'm happy with my month on two pages planner. Visiting from Friday's Letters.

Hope you got some bargains at Target, my hands down fav store :) Saying hi from Fridays Letters link up

Mmmm, I could go for some Chik Fil A myself right now.

Christina said...

Amazon Prime is amazing. I've been using it for three years! I never got sucked into the Erin Condren nonsense. I found the exact same "life" planner at Target for $11.

The nearest Chick-fil-A is about 20-25 minutes from my house and I make the trip at least once a week. It's SO worth it!

I enjoyed reading this. Sorry I'm a week late...being a teacher is great for the summers off and holidays, but honestly being in the classroom with 87 different middle school children who don't want to be there in some cases and believe they should get A's no matter what is really really really tiring. I can't wait to go to Target. I have a few things i want to buy that's I've read about lately on blogs.
