I am posting this from Tom’s laptop because my computer wouldn’t turn on past the apple logo this morning. I am trying to install a time machine backup to see if that fixes the issue but I’m not holding my breath. It’s 7 years old, but it’s a mac and I haven’t had any issues until this moment. I am slightly freaking out right now so if I don’t have any blog posts this week, this would be the reason :/ Running out and buying a brand new computer isn’t possible at this very moment.

Our bathroom sink/counter top was basically falling off the wall so I called the landlord. They scheduled to come on Saturday which ended up with me and the girls waiting around until they showed up at 4:30, so by the time they were done the day was pretty much over which feels like a we lost a whole day this weekend. We did manage to finally get the Christmas tree taken down and put away though, so the entire day wasn’t a waste. I’m not going to complain too much though because if we owned instead of rented we would have had to pay for the fix or diy’ed it.

My working out went okay last week, the eating part wasn’t phenomenal though. I really need to find some kick ass healthy recipes because eating salads doesn’t work for me. I’ll eat a salad and then go back in to the kitchen to try to find something make myself feel full which usually isn’t super healthy. I get both hangry and headaches if I don’t eat enough so I am all ears for some excellent recipes if you have them.

It’s the “after Christmas tighten the purse strings” time so I haven’t bought anything new yet this month. (And now that I am having computer issues this is even more so.) I am still waiting for this shirt to arrive but I bought that at the beginning of December so it doesn’t count as a new purchase 😉 It’s nice to try and get creative with what you already have, so you feel inspired with your own wardrobe. I am feeling very motivated to thrift though. I feel like I am on a thrifting mission, and this mission and inspiration is coming together with style and inspiration boards on Pinterest. I follow the blogger BJonesstyle; she is a thrifting queen and inspires me with each haul she makes.

*After I wrote this we went thrifting and I found an oversized wool blazer. I need to clean it up and fix a button but I think it will integrate in to my closet well.

Do you have any thrifting inspirations?

Weekly Reads and Finds

I was feeling inspired by Urban Outfitters this week when I was going through some of their new spring stock. I’ve pulled some of the pieces and looks that I am digging for the new season up above. Fall/winter stock is usually my favourite season, but spring stock blows a breath of fresh air into the more stagnant winter vibe you start to feel around February.

I started working out again this week and I wasn’t sure how successful it was going to be but I am happy to note that I worked out 4 days this week. I thought for sure I would putter out by mid-week looking for any excuse not to follow through. There was a few almost didn’t do it moments but I kicked my ass. Merle has decided that she wants to work out with me which is awesome and hilarious. Watching her do burpees and lift weights (small juice bottles as weights) brings some laughter to the situation that usually makes me want to cry 😉 I’m hoping I get 5 days in next week.  Continue Reading
