Thank you to everyone’s kind words in yesterday’s post about remembering my mom.
Now that it’s Friday, I’m kind of bummed that today is going to be gorgeous and the rest of the weekend not so much. Instead of laying out by the pool today, I’ll be in my office.
Anyway… here are my favorite things from this past week.
What’s the Phrase! I may be late to this game, but it’s definitely been a favorite this week. If you’ve never played it, it’s an app for your phone that is very similar to Wheel of Fortune. You can add your friends and play against them, just like Words with Friends. The Apple iStore has a free version and a paid version. I only downloaded the free version to see if I liked it, but I do and I’m tired of the ads popping up, so I’ll be purchasing this one. If you want to play with me, my user name is NicoleMarie1214.
My new home office desk! Bryan’s sister was super nice to stop by our place last night and help Bryan put together our desks. Tonight I’ll be cleaning out the office room and making space to finally put our desks in there. Since we’ve moved in, that room was just a clutter room for any misc. boxes or bins. No more! It’s exciting because now I can start looking for a chair and art work. I might actually stop over at Michaels after work and pick up frames.
Non-photographed favorites:
-
meeting with my sister and cousin for dinner on Wednesday
-
watching American Idol results show on Thursday (AHHH I can’t believe she went home!)
-
not doing house-work this week – but now that means I’ll be cleaning all weekend (boooo!)
-
painting my nails any color I want again! So I went to get my gel manicure on Thursday night after work and LITERALLY right after my shower, my thumb nail peeled RIGHT OFF. Since I was beyond annoyed, I peeled the rest of them off. I know you’re not supposed to take off gel yourself because it damages your nail… but I swear when I tell you, the polish peeled off in less than 30 seconds. Yes, all 10 nails. I am never going back to that salon again. Super annoyed because I drove a good 40 minutes to go to the salon and $30 wasted. Oh well – lesson learned.

I definitely need to check out that app. I’ve almost defeated Flow so I’ll need something new to keep me occupied!
OMG LOVE Flow. I’ve completed all the levels so I have no more to do at this point. I hated flow bridges. Don’t even try it, it sucks.
Mint green 🙂 You should get your money back, that is ridiculous that it keeps happening :(. Favorite from this week, Passing my state board exam 🙂 So happy it’s over. Hope you can catch some rays this weekend!!
Congrats on passing your state board 🙂
I have the same issue with gel manicures…they peel right away! And once it starts, it is like a little obsession to peel them all off. Lol, it is very satisfying. I go to Christie’s on Main Street Manayunk…they do a decent job. Right now, I have Peach Daiquri by Essie on my nails and toes. I love it! I posted a pic on Instagram, you follow me, check it out 🙂
Love Essie colors. My favorite for a while was California Coral. I need to repurchase it. I used it all up!
