High Five For Friday- 18.03.16

Hello Friday!  Hubby drove home late last night and it was so nice to wake up with him here this morning!  Here are my five:

1.)  Our house is listed!  Most of the work is done and it is all cleaned up.  I hope it sells quickly, but I am not sure it will with the market being low around here.  Did you catch my post about staging our living room?  You can read it here.



2.)  My Mom, Miss. E and I had a shopping day in the city last Friday.  We went for authentic Italian pizza, which Mom and I really enjoyed!  Miss. E was not a fan and had fries later on!  Ha ha!  We hit a few stores and I found some really great Spring pieces.  (Yes, I am shopping again.  I have definitely reigned it in, but I am shopping.)



3.)  We are back home!  I really appreciated my Mom and Dad's hospitality when we were staying with them.  They really helped me out and spoiled us!  It feels good to be home, though.  I missed my bed, my couch and my routine.  It is good to be back.  Mom even sent me home with some of the Reese's eggs which of course I have been gobbling up!



4.)  Work went well this week.  It was crazy busy for the first 2 days but still good.  We have 2 new instruments in the lab and they work so well.  It makes a HUGE difference in my day.  Miss. E was even excited to go to the babysitter.  I was dreading dropping her off, but she was so excited to play with her friends.  On Tuesday and Wednesday, she didn't even say goodbye!  She just ran off to go play, which made things much easier on this Mama.

5.)  I won an Instagram giveaway!  Woo hoo!  I follow Carlton Cards on Instagram and liked one of their photos.  They commented that I had won a pack of their cards!  I was so excited.  If given the choice, Carlton is my favourite card shop.  They are always beautiful and well made!


I will leave you with a couple of photos from yesterday.  Miss. E and I didn't do anything special for St. Patrick's day, but we did dress in green!  We are a wee bit Irish and I always like to recognize that part of my roots on St. Patrick's day.  Have a fabulous weekend!

    1. Thanks, Sarah. Yes, it's weird that the eggs vary so much from country to country! Still delicious, though! ;)

  5. Your living room looks really nice. I like the touches of blue and green and how you decorated the ladder shelf. Pinterest is my go-to for decor ideas too! I hope your home sells quickly.
