Man, it’s been a while! I’m going to try and backtrack the last few days as best as I can, but I’m sure that I’ll miss tons! I didn’t really take that many pictures- my camera is on its last leg. Thank goodness I’m getting a new one for my bday (which is just 19 days away!)
Well, Friday was my last ever day of work. It was pretty awesome to walk out of there for the last time! There was no time to rest and relax though. I headed straight over to Dana’s house with a truck full of stuff for a garage sale the next day. We hung out, had some vietnamese food, some wine, and priced out our stuff. It was a fun night, but lots of work. I got back late and hit the hay. The next morning I got up at 4 am (yes, I said AM) and Justin and I loaded up another truckload of stuff to take over. Got there around 6 ish and unloaded and the garage sale began. We sold sooo much stuff and we made about $340 ish dollars!! That is paying for half of our cruise this summer!! yay for decluttering AND paying for part of a vacay!
After the G Sale, Dana sent me on my way with some goodies from her garden! Some squash, rosemary, oregano, and mint! I didn’t get pics of everything but here are a few. Plus a picture of some GORGEOUS peach hybiscus that she has on her front poarch!

what I did with the squash she gave me. EVOO+squash+rosemary+grillpan= delish!
After I left I hit up the Mexican market about a block from her house and made a HUGE dent in their produce section! Seriously their prices are amazing! I’m going to go back more often. I also left with a Mexican coke and a mango empanada!! (which were gobbled down in the car on the way home. my belly was really happy. I don’t splurge on that kind of stuff often and it was SO worth it!)
Then I picked up some stuff from hobby lobby and headed home to make a cute little something for my cousin’s baby shower the next day. Here it is… cute huh? Once I got it figured out it was pretty easy to make, just time consuming tying all of those diapers on!

Then Sunday was the baby shower. Amy was cute as could be, though she was clearly miserable (poor thing!). She’s a teeny tiny girl and her belly was huge! And she’s got about a month left to go too! There were snacks and cake to be had. I didn’t overdo it but I did enjoy the snacks.
After the shower Justin and I went to see Night at the Museum 2. It was cute and funny- I would recommend it!
I guess that brings us up to today!! I’ll start my normal posting again tomorrow. I think I’m spent from the catch up post, LOL. I’ve got lots on my to do list to work on though, so I’m sure I’ll stay plenty busy for the rest of the day.
Till tomorrow!
