All That Glitters: My Week (March 16-22)

My week this week has been a mix of good (presents, shopping and girl time) and not so good (sick, blah). But since the good has definitely out ranks the bad I am going to say my week has been a great one.
I was sick this week unfortunately I woke up on Tuesday with a killer headache and all congested. I had been feeling a little off for the last few days/week, but Tuesday was the worse day. I called in sick and spent the whole day on the couch drinking tea.

A little "me" time was needed this week. So I took sometime for myself and gave myself a gel manicure. I have really soft nails so I LOVE the gel polish. It stays on for a couple weeks and I can play my sports, or just abuse my hands and my nails always looks shiny and pretty. But at $20 for a salon version that is just too steep for my wallet so I was so happy when they started releasing at home versions. Right now I only have 1 colour (purple) but I am trying to find a dark grey to add to my collection (Sally's perhaps??)

The hubs had a work event to go to this week, and while he was schmoozing with the big guys I was left to fend for myself. And while I make him soup each week and I make some sort of meat dish or casserole for us to munch on all week, if left on my own, I am hands down the laziest cook on the planet. But I was able to break out of that cycle a little and made some healthy coconut chocolate balls. They were pretty yummy.

Friday was a bit of a long day for the hubs and myself. After working all day we went with our realtor and saw 3 houses (in 1.5hrs). It was a little crazy but we both really liked the first house we saw. Not sure what our next steps will be but I will keep you posted. Sorry no pics of the house but after a long day we used a Christmas present that the lil' sis and her lovely got us and went to the movies.

It was a great movie and seeing it in 3D was pretty awesome. And just for a little added bonus my earrings that I ordered off Etsy for my birthday arrived. They are my first pair of rose gold and I am absolutely loving them.

Saturday was both good and bad for me. I had a fabulous afternoon with B we had burgers and went thrift store shopping. Where I was able to find 2 great sweaters, a pot for my aloe plant, mirror to store stuff on, ties for the hubs and more. It was also a little sucky since I went into the office for a couple hours. But at end of year with all the crazy deadlines everyone has to dig in a little harder. All-in-all though the shopping more than made up for the 4 hours at the office.

Which brings us to the end of my week Sunday. I was heading into work again for a few hours (only 1 more week till fiscal is over, yay!!!) and since I am married to an AMAZING hubs, he made me a great breakfast to fill me up before sending me off to the office.

Work was all discombobulating (especially with it being Sunday) and it wasn't going as smoothly as I would have liked (it's possible the gods were mad I was working on their day) but it all turned around when I was able to move my Thursday sushi dinner with V to tonight. We met up, ate our fill and had great girl chat. It was a fun way to finish off my week.
