Thanksgiving
is over… and I am exhausted!
Tons of
food, family and fun
but also?
exhausting.
Time to
decompress with some recent 

fave links from the interwebs:

– Kevin Murphy Color Bug rinse out purple hair color. 
Love. Seriously considering
purchasing some on ebay.
– This
wallpaper design on one-wall only.
 
{photo credit}
or maybe this wallpaper. I *love* it! 
{can be purchased here} 

– Great Lakes Brewing Company Christmas Ale.
For those of you out there who have never had this,
run out {yes, run} and hunt it down.
Not only is this a local brewery {yay for local!}
but it is amazeballs. 
And it sells out mega fast.
{it’s a good thing we end up getting a few packs as Xmas gifts}

– My new coasters!
I ordered them from 
etsy store Made By Marcy
{whose shop I found via heartsy}

– The tutorial I used to make this pretty little thing:

Yesterday I came home to a package of goodies from a recent Etsy purchase. 
Have you heard of Heartsy? 
It’s a new Groupon-ish website, 
but for Etsy stores! 
I purchased a Heartsy credit to this adorable store, kngo. 
{my new mugs!}
I purchased two mugs. One says “shine on you crazy diamond,” 
and the other says “love wins.”

In addition to these gems, 
I purchased a credit to Homesteading Roasters on Heartsy. 
They specialize in coffee beans, shortbread cookies, and graham crackers. 
{homestead roasters}
I haven’t ordered from them yet, 
but they look incredible and I’m so excited to place my order!

Any Etsy finds that you would recommend? 
{I’m always looking for a new store!}

on planning and pretty things.

Thanks for the cruise announcement love! 

And now that we have a vacation in the works (even though it is 6 months away), I cannot stop planning!

I am a uber-planner by nature. I can’t help it.

But now that there are plane tickets, excursions, swimwear and outfits to be planned, I am in HEAVEN!
 

That being said, there are some other big things that need planned for in 2011:

– Two friends are having their first babies in the next 3 months or so.

– One of my BFFs is getting married in early October.

– and BFs cousin is getting married in December.


I’m seriously SUPER thrilled about all the fun events happening this year!

That being said, this year is going to FLY by. I just know it!

Now for pretty cruise things…

Like this gorgeous bathing suit from Anthropologie:

and this anthropologie:

and this dress from J. Crew:

and these are just a few items I am eyeing for my cruise. I should probably get a bigger suitcase, too 😉 I’m not at all joking about that because I seriously have the tiniest suitcase ever. 

PS. Stay tuned because there will be an awesome, seriously seriously awesome, giveaway coming up!

Friday thoughts:
– Today is my last day of work at my current job.
Monday I’ll ‘start fresh’ at my ‘new’ job in Akron.
– 20 years ago today, my grandfather was killed.
I can’t believe it’s been so long!
A lot has happened in these twenty years.
And this day, twenty years ago,
forever changed my outlook on life.
But I am OK.
– I am really excited to have a nice, relaxing weekend.
I am making a promise to myself to have fun,
relax, and get whatever I can get done around the house done.
But I’m not over extending myself this weekend.
– I still haven’t had any caffeine since October.
This week was the first week where I woke up numerous days and thought,
 “Oh.my.gosh. I need want coffee.”
And not that fake decaf stuff.
The real stuff.
– I’m currently obsessed with pinterest.com.
Obsessed.

– Another obsession?
tastespotting.com.
amazing.

Confession:

My Amazon wishlist is growing… growing out of control. Most of my wish list consists of books. Memoirs, mostly.

– The One That I Want: A Novel
– It’s All Too Much: An Easy Plan for Living a Richer Life with Less Stuff

– Built Gourmet Getaway

– Baron Baptiste – Unlocking Athletic Power

– Yoga Journal

– Vibram FiveFingers

– Spent: Memoirs of a Shopping Addict
…just to name a few 🙂
