The one where all I do is see friends

It’s been one fun month of catch up with my girlfriends over a meal, and celebrating friends birthdays! My heart is so full.

n top of seeing friends and lots of hang outs over food and dinners, I am finally going home to Northern California for a week to see my parents. I might unplug entirely depending on my mood when I’m home. So if I go dark for a week I’m fine just wanting to prioritize life and time. I feel like this year has really shifted in terms of mentality and priorities. Is this an age thing? I think so.

Still happy to work when it comes and the right fit, but you know what I’m most excited about? The weather dropping so I can be outside every single day from morning to late afternoon to garden! Yay! The problem is I go out in pajamas and don’t get ready for the day. So I’ll have to schedule lunches so I make sure I get ready at least a few times a week :)

We went to a distant relative’s wedding (Benjamin’s side) – we skipped the ceremony and thought no one would notice because it was a really big wedding (200) but uhhhhhhh some people noticed oops. But not the bride and groom which was the most important!

But sometimes you can’t make it to everything – and in this case it was an early Friday evening, and we were happy to make it to the reception. This wasn’t the first time though I’ve skipped a ceremony. Many years ago it was a Catholic ceremony and you know they are long and well, I showed up with my friend to the reception and the bride and groom had no idea and we still celebrated them! I’m just saying… *wink*

Did I tell you my life goal at the moment is to be a lady who lunches and throws parties? That’s it.

I kinda feel like I’m on my way…

Also, balloons from The 99 Cents Only store are amazing – they are $1.49 per star balloon in so many colors and the super large one was $6! It is so so worth the joy and who doesn’t love birthday balloons??!!
