there are a lot of things i like in this picture.

so its decided. i am going to paris in july. i. am. sooooo. excited. ahhhhh. 

i've seriously wanted to go for about two years, and theoretically wanted to go for about five. 

i cant decide what i'm more excited about- summer, summer in paris, or summer in paris with best friend. 

in not so exciting news the computer we watch tv from has a virus that takes pop ups to a new level of interruption. 

back to good news i am getting an office at work and i think i just talked my boss into doubling the size of it. we can only go up from here. 

tried to eat healthy today. operation don't buy lunch. lasted 60% of the day. everyone at the office is addicted to those peak freans cookies with the raspberry centers. delicious little things. ive seen half a box disappear in an hour, and I honestly don't work with that many people. 

The heatwave humming in the house of cards

do you ever have those moments where the smallest thing makes you have a flashback to something so specific you can smell it?



this song makes me think of looking out my old apartment's bay window, after the rain, killing time before the sun went down and i went to bed. that summer was hot. that summer every day was the same; i worked the same hours, ate all my vegetables and independence was gained. on the surface it was easy.
emotionally i was a mess.

nesting

I am totally immersed in everything to do with decorating, clearing out clutter and planning for summer.

I went to ikea saturday morning. jay needed the car for work so i rented a little mazda 5 (dream car!) zipcar and took her around town for the day. decided to make the most of having to go out to Oakville for the day (for work on a saturday boo) and spent the morning sourcing out new stuff for the apartment. can you believe i didn't buy anything but a pack of tea lights?! that has got to be a record especially since all i can think about right now is making this place nicer. it is beyond difficult to walk out of ikea buying hardly anything but i did it.


saturday night i forgot to have dinner and a couple drinks later my darling friend melissa was packing me into a cab for the night. i realized i am now officially an old lady. an old lady who is nesting.

this weekend I am deep cleaning the kitchen, starting an outbox and doing one repair to the apartment. I also plan on hitting up ikea to do some sourcing and start planning some purchases.

on the downside I also have to work 7 hours on Saturday attending an event my company sponsored. BUT I am renting the cutest mazda 5 zipcar so its not all bad.

this week was super crazy, but also hugely productive at work. its actually mental that every time one project/task is finished more are invented for me. i really enjoy it so its not a complaint, but one day i'd like to have a 'slow' day at the office. i'm quite convinced they dont exist here.

i'm soooooo ready for the weekend! :)
