Giveaway Winner!! aka - Shame on Me

Oh my goodnessssssssssssssss.

(Just a photo of me on Easter that I haven't shared with you all yet). 

First off, hey hey hey! 

I know that I have been pretty absent for the last two weeks and I really apologize. With my new part-time job and the husband doing his law school finals, its been a really weird/crazy schedule these past few weeks. I am still trying to learn how to balance everything and hope to get it all normal again soon. 

It's a lot more challenging than I thought it would be to take on a part-time job, and still do everything I want to do with my business. I feel a little naive right now :)

Secondly, so remember when I did that giveaway for a $25.00 gift certificate to my store? Well, I have been a silly goose and never announced the winner. So I apologize for the delay, but I used random.org and it choose entry #9, so a huge congrats are in order for reader KNC!!! 

That lucky reader gets $25.00 worth of goodies from me to share or keep for their very own.

KNC - Send me an email at mysweetnomsa@gmail.com so I can get you your gift certificate!

Third, I am not sure if any of you have heard of this book series called, 'Harry Potter.' It's about a boy wizard and a dark lord and all the kooky adventures they have battling each other. 

O.M.G. 

I just finished the fifth book and why didn't anyone ever tell me how awesome this series is?!?! When I am not working, I am reading HP (nickname us cool kids call the books) and when I am working, I am thinking about Hogwarts and all the mischief this kids get into there. 

I totally get why everyone loved these books and am currently trying to restrain myself so I don't read the next two over the weekend (I really want to, but I know I am going to be so sad when they are over). Also, I have to work, so it cuts into my reading time a bit.

Fourth, I have not watched the Voice yet this week and probably won't get a chance to do it until tomorrow, but I assume that I am going to watch Jamar preform, watch his mama beam, and then I will cry. It's happened every single week he has sang, so I figure why break a tradition.

I hope you all are having a great week so far, and tomorrow I will share with you some of my favorite things I found on Pinterest lately!

High Five For Friday!!

This blog post is being written during my three hour break at my new part time job (which has seemed to morph into a full time job). 

I worked four hours this morning, went home, took the puppy on a run, showered, ate lunch, gasped at the number of emails that I currently have in my inbox, wrote this blog post, then I will be scooting off to work for another four hours.

Yeesh. 

Here are my top five things that I am loving this Friday....

/one\

At work this morning (I work for Edible Arrangements now fyi), I got to spend four hours dipping fruit into melted chocolate. Standing over a giant thing of chocolate all morning is the most lovely way to start the day. Also, I am pretty sure that I have the best smelling job ever.

The weather here has been so cool and rainy the past few days. I love being able to go on a mid-day run and not fear of dying of dehydration.

My husband starts his law school exams this Sunday. Even though they are going to be a $%&#@, at least they are finally here, he can do his best and we can be done with the first year of law school. Hooray!

The Voice!

I love this show so much. The judges are awesome and funny, the talent is awesome and the song choices are always so good. 

Maybe its because this is the only show my husband and I watch together, but really...I do love it so much. 

Fyi....the winner is going to be one of these three...

/five\

I don't have to work out of the house on Sunday. And I am so freaking excited about that. 

Yoga pants and no showering....here I come!

Enjoy your weekend everyone!!
