Twosday II The Office

Happy Tuesday or Twosday. I am linking up with Stephanie again for her Twoday series. I missed last week’s but was really excited for this week’s theme: The Office. I hope you enjoy!

 

might as well drink in the sun

 I am too old for all day drinking, though I did enjoy day drinks over this past weekend. It was so nice to slide down to Florida for some warm weather and beach and pool time (please remind me this should be a yearly pilgrimage). I went down to celebrate a friend’s birthday and had a lovely time enjoying relaxing days and evenings outside in true summertime fashion.  Returning home to the below freezing temperatures on Sunday night, was less than pleasant- I am more than ready to leave my winter coat in the closet for at least 6 months.   Anyways, hope you had a fun Saint Patrick’s Day!

just because...

 

I recently wanted to get one of my friends a cute notebook for the next adventure in her life.  Originally a work friend, turned into an out of work friend (love when that happens), she and I both have a similar love for to do lists and having a notebook to jot down notes and other important details. I thought that a nice notebook that was purse friendly and a bit personalized would make a nice little gift. I fell in love with these notebooks on etsy that are embroidered with names or other words if you desire. I love personalization – and I love giving items with initials or names on them to people.  If you are looking for a nice little something with that extra thoughtful flair - I highly recommend you consider a personalized notebook.

I am pretty late to this party, but I am listening to “Let it Go” from Frozen on repeat now. Idina Menzel sang this when I watched the Oscars, and then the song won the award, and I was hooked.  Strong apologies to my work neighbors as I think I sing this out loud at some point while I am listening at my desk. What can I say, I was the little girl who wanted to play Annie whenever I got a chance.

Getting a lovely long weekend in warm sunny Florida. I am so glad to have a chance to escape the cold even for a few days. Something about 80 degrees makes everything feel better. Spring, here I am, and I am waiting for you.

I feel in love with my new way to cross off my to do list at work. I realized that I hated crossing out and not being able to look back later to get a handle on what I had done, I’ve started highlighting completed items – still easy to read, and adds a pop of color to my life (yep, I am a nerd).

The beautiful flowers I received as a thank you. It’s probably my favorite thing to tell people I have many secret admirers as this did come from a group of people. Orange roses are a new favorite – they are so vibrant.

Also, happy that I finally scheduled my appointment with my tax guy – it’s always a pleasure to visit Ray this time of year. Yes, it’s nerdy to like your tax accountant, but mine is pleasant and kind.
