Another quick drop-in post. I'm exhausted and fighting a cold (most of being up so late last night was me sick), so I'm going to try and make it a take-it-easy and go-to-bed-early kind of night.
My recap of yesterday... mostly around my expensive impulse trip to Pier 1 (across the street from the grocery store - this could be dangerous) and the totally fabulous lamp I got. Among other things.
You know all those Pier 1 commercials about "find what speaks to you?" They're pretty hysterical... good marketing. And apparently also totally true! A lot of stuff spoke to me yesterday, but this lamp kind of jumped up and down and screamed too.
It wasn't cheap... I called my mom and I was like, I have a dilemma. I've been looking for a good floor lamp for a while and I found the perfect one, but it's expensive. And when I told her how much it was, she just said, "that's not that bad." She totally enabled me (maybe that's why I called her? lol.) So I bought it. And I LOVE it. The outside of the lampshade is cream, but the inside is aqua to match the glass on the stand. And when you turn it on, it glows blue. Even the light right around the lamp is aqua. It's awesome.
When I was looking for an insert to write my journaling on, I pulled out this letterpress card from the Kelly Purkey December Daily kit. "Bright" because it was about a lamp. Get it? lol. I couldn't resist.
And I included a few more pictures - some pillows I got (the one in the back with the green circles came last week from Target.com), a few ornaments - new and some old ones I just love, and then the Candy Cane Chex Mix I made to take to my Laurels at church today.
So that's my entry.
And here's a close-up of the Lamp of Aqua Awesomeness:
And the chex mix:
The recipe is on my Pinterest board for stuff I've made... I added pretzels too. It's delicious and seriously addictive.
In fact, I think I'll go have some while I bask in the aqua glow of my lovely lamp.
