Seems so normal and not worth adding to my top 5 for this week, but for whatever reason it made me so happy to have it. I guess that fact that I don't have to take the 8 minutes (I don't often have) to get it all ready when I'm
Among the slew of marketing emails I peruse through each morning as part of my to-do's first thing was an email from Beauty Brands. The email this morning included a coupon for free hair product. Hello. Sign me up. I'm always into trying something new on this crazy mop. They must have known I was in need of more guts and had planned to make a trip this week, anyway- and now making my trip even more worthwhile with this coupon. My free gift(s) included two travel sized items from the ABBA line of hair products; Smoothing Blow Dry Lotion, and Firm Hold Hairspray. My devotion to Kenra has not changed as of late, so I think I'll leave the hairspray in my desk at work- but the lotion was a great find! My hair was super sleek, and needed little flat iron support after my morning blow-dry, tease, and spray routine. One more thing.. Redken products were buy one, get one 50% off. Suh-weet. What a great day :)
3. Summer Colors.
While shopping for hair products, I can't ever seem to help myself from making a beeline straight for the huge selection of nail polish. The variety of colors make me giddy. Almost like that same feeling after getting a new toy when you're 12. Nail polish does it for me. That and lip gloss. I almost love nail polish as much as I love/adore/can't live without/need desperately in my life lip gloss. Currently I have a make-up bag in my purse housing 7 varietys. I'm a snob for the Victoria's Secret brand. So- nail polish. PINK is so very summery- and I love this one: Shorts Story. I say my picture is true pinterest style.
4. Kelly Day
Thursday was Jordan's normal day to work- but was off for the day with nothing to do, so I took a half day at work and spent it hanging out with my sweet. At the fire department he gets what they call a 'Kelly Day'.. every ninth shift he gets a paid shift off, something to do with overtime.. yaddda, yadda.. all I know is that he is home- and so I should be, too! We went to lunch and spent the entire afternoon together. We had a great day :) Excuse the sleepy eyes- I had just gotten up from a 2 hour nap. Nice and snuggley- Jordan was so sweet and let me nap. When I finally woke I had decided I didn't have to eat- I was a happy duck in my bed :) Even though you can't nitice too well- my hair was soft and shiny- thank you Abba!
5. We Got GAS.
Our loft-living got better this week with the installation of a gas grill! These brand new apartments had a charcoal grill. Just one. What the heck is that? I guess they finally took the opportunity and had the much more convenient gas put in- and J and I took advantage! Dinner on Thursday was delish! Grilled chicken was on the menu- well, actually a make shift Chicken Cordon Bleu, but without the stuffing on the inside, rather than it being on the outside! Stay tuned for a recipe to follow at CB!
While we were doing our own grilling- we enjoyed the live music from this hot spot, here. Apparently on Thursday nights this is the place to be in Fort Worth. Pretty sure they 'out-smelled' our grilled chicken. But thats fine- this place is amazing, anyway!
Happy Friday to you!! What's your High Five? Link up with Lauren From My Grey Desk!
