Some of our couple friends like to call me and John the "Happy-Highs", instead of the "Sad-lows" (which is our last name). I think it's cute and it always makes me smile :)
I decided to mix the 2 up a little, and do a post today on the "Happy and Lows" from the week so far!
Maybe I'll make it a weekly thing???
First of all,
HAPPY:
Ice cream date with hubs -- mine's on the right ;)
LOW:
The next day indulging in a Gigi's cupcake at work -- for those of you who aren't familiar with Gigi's, just imagine a GIANT cupcake, with equal amounts icing and cake. I hear there are 780 calories in 1 cupcake. Did you get that -- 780! It was happy at first, but about 5 minutes later, it was a major low. I felt sick to my stomach, and had a big time sugar crash only a few hours into my shift. WHOOPS!
HAPPY:
new purchases! finally jumped on the NAKED train and got the #2 palette. I love it so far!
Plus, 2 dainty pairs of cute earrings :) And they were just $1.50 each!
LOW:
Brrrrrr...temperatures here in NC dropped big time this week! Just when I was getting all excited for spring and painting my nails seafoam green ;) I really can't complain too much though, it's been a VERY mild winter here.
HAPPY:
The way pretty stationary makes me feel -- I love it! It makes me WANT to write cards for no reason.
(The one below is from the $1 bin at Michaels!)
LOW:
Finding out that my dear aunt had to have an extensive and invasive surgery (it lasted almost 8 hours!) She is such an amazing and strong woman, and my heart ached for her as she had to go through that.
HAPPY:
The surgery went VERY well, and she will hopefully leaving the hospital Friday, after 1 week there. Praise GOD for His mercy and healing.
LOW:
I had a major "missing my family" moment this week. It was my parent's anniversary and then my mom got really sick...I just wanted to BE there! I wanted to celebrate the wonderful milestone over a fancy dinner, and then bring my mom soup and watch chick flicks together. Sometimes it is VERY hard being so far away, and I really miss them so much.
HAPPY:
Getting to babysit the sweetest little girl in the world -- a dear friend of mine's niece. We had the best time ever and she is my new best friend. Yes, she is 2 years old, but still.
And I have to end on another HAPPY!
I leave tomorrow for NASHVILLE! I will get to see some of my very best friends, help host an incredible baby shower, visit with my sweet family there, and love on my beautiful nieces. I am so excited!!
