This week has been a doozy. I'm over the moon that Friday has finally arrived, and plan to fill my weekend with equal parts of fun, relaxation, and getting my ducks in a row. You can tell I'm having a busy week when a) yesterday's clothes are thrown on the chair, b) my bed is unmade for several days in a row, c) my nails are unpainted or (worse!) chipping, and d) my purse has become a graveyard for receipts.
However, despite the busyness, there have been many things that have put a spring in my step this week.
- Slouchy boots on the cheap from Payless - comfortable, trendy, and affordable. Goodness knows I love a flat boot. I've already worn them twice this week, and I got them on Tuesday.
- Oatmeal for breakfast - Since the weather has been getting cooler, I've been enjoying my favorite fall/winter start to the day. I love the way it warms me up and keeps me full until my usual late lunch.
- Making Kraft macaroni & cheese for dinner - Sometimes, you have to give in to the cravings of comfort food. "Food for soul" is what I always say.
- Sweater weather - I was thrilled to pull out my favorite heavy cardigan this morning and see my breath on the walk to the office.
- The new Florence & the Machine album, which is available to stream online. LOVE her, and this has unofficially become the soundtrack of my week.
What is on your happy list this week?

Last week was a tough one for me too - I was happy to get my nails done and do a girl's night out - oh and I did an awesome mac and cheese dinner too! It's the best! :)
Oh, my poor purse. It's in need of a good cleaning/organizing.
Macaroni & cheese is the ultimate comfort food---isn't it? It doesn't matter if it's from Kraft, a schnazzy restaurant that uses five types of gourmet cheese or the kind my mom used to make it using Cheez Wiz---something about mac & cheese makes me feel like the world isn't such a bad place & everything is going to be okay.
Hope this week isn't quite as crazy for you!

I hope you are almost at another relaxing and wonderful weekend! I love macaroni & cheese! My favorite is the white cheddar kind... if I'm feeling fancy, yet low-maintenance, I'll sautee some mushrooms & asparagus to stir in. Mmmmm :o) It's not quite yet oatmeal weather yet in Houston... I'm still clinging to morning smoothies. Happy almost Friday!
I love this list because I've been having a crazy week too! I'm out of state for work right now and I realize by the time I have a day off I'll have worked for 12 days in a row! I'll definitely be thinking of a happy list for myself this week!
Oh and "my nails are unpainted or (worse!) chipping..." that stresses me out when I have that too!
