Thinking positively...just keeping the faith and praying business picks up very soon!

What I'm Excited About
The new school year...all the new and fun things that this time of year brings- new supplies- new outfits- new teachers and new schedules...the start of dance and hockey and play rehearsals...bring on all the fun!
What I'm Watching/Reading
LOVED some Summer Series like

The Summer I Turned Pretty
OutDaughtered
Pen15 (this was a binge watch and not necessarily a summer series)
and my two books for August were
Golden Hills by Jennifer Weiner
Awesome short story by one of my favorite authors....the name doesn't really fit but loved the political story. Find it HERE

Another winner by an amazing suspense author- this will be in my Top 5 of the year!!
What I'm Listening To
LOTS of Taylor Swift in these parts :)
What I'm Wearing
Those linen pants....

What I'm Doing This Weekend
We have a wedding on Friday Night- hope to get some outdoor time on Saturday- dinner at Mimi and Papa's Saturday Night to celebrate Mama's Birthday- Party at our Friends on Sunday and Dinner with Besties on Monday- hoping it is a perfect Labor Day Weekend!
What I'm Looking Forward To Next Month
Celebrating Turning 50 and Blackout 2023!
What Else Is New?
This guy gave us a big scare when we were in Italy. He refused to eat and drink while at Doggy Daycare. So stubborn and nervous. My Father in Law, who is the best, picked him up and brought him to the animal hospital where they gave him an IV so he would not get dehyrdated...after that, he still wouldn't eat until we got home three days later...Thank God he is ok AND he is loving life now that we are all home....freshy!
