Monday Questionnaire! December 2, 2013

Holy December! I can't believe it is already here. This year has flown by, and let me just say a ton has happened with me this year. Some good and some bad, but it's almost over now! Another Monday has come and here we go!

1.) Mood:
- I'm in a pretty good mood! Work was easy, luckily after a Holiday weekend. And best of all, I was able to order to Naked 3 Palette! I'm so excited.

2.) You call into the radio station to request a holiday song-- which one is it?
- Hmm, I'm not really huge on Christmas music, but probably Rudolph. It's a classic.

3.) What is your ideal handbag size?
- I would say medium/large. The only purse I carry is my work bag, so it has to be a good size for all of my apocolypse items.

4.) Current nail polish:
- Nothing. Once again, I'm slacking. I promise, I almost always have my nails painted until I do these questionnaires.

5.) What is the last fragrance you wore?
- My new Pink Sugar! I got a great deal on it yesterday from TJ Maxx, so I'm very happy about that.

6.) Current outfit:
- I loved my outfit today!!! My sweater is from my massive Target purchase last week, I'm also wearing a black cami. My jeans are straight leg jeans from American Eagle, and my shoes are loafers from Shoe Carnival.

7.) Which snow activity do you prefer: building snowmen, making snow angels, or snowball fights?
- We don't get snow where I live, but if we did I would love to have a snowball fight. I've always wanted to have one!

8.) What is your favorite restaurant cuisine?
- I love Hibachi restaurants!!! I also really enjoy Italian or just plain out cheesburger joints.

9.) Can you whistle with your fingers?
- No. That was something that wasn't passed on from my mother.

10.) Weekly goals:
- Finish my work goals successfully, stay well (I seem to be getting a cold), and finish shopping for my last few Christmas presents.

Personal Planner Setup

I have been using a planner for as long as I can remember. My little OCD self needs something to keep me grounded and on track. About 3 years ago I discovered Erin Condren as well as the planner community on social media (if you are a planner person check them out, it is such a positive and supportive group of people). If you're not familiar, the Erin Condren Life Planner is an A5 size planner (7" by 9") and is a thick planner. For me, this type of planner is not convenient for every day use so this planner stays at home on my desk and is used mostly for my creative side, not functionality. This brings me to my personal size planner, I use a Kate Spade Wellesley planner which can be bought at the Kate Spade Outlet stores (these outlets will ship to you so call around if you don't live close to one and are interested). Currently as pictured above I am using the red version which was re-released this Summer, and I also have a black version which is always in stock....

Blogtober Day 24! DIY Remove Black Stains from Hardwood Floors

This blog is coming to you by accident, of course. I don't know if I've mentioned it much on this blog, but I have two pitbulls. I know, a lot to handle, and one of them is a puppy. She is horrible sometimes, but I can't help but love her. Our whole house is hardwood floors, which I love! With my two dogs, if the happen to have an accident it's really easy to clean up...or so I thought. We have had a large living room rug down for about 6 months now. Over the weekend we decided to take it outside and air it out and do a little "Fall Cleaning". Low and behold underneath the rug were huge dark black spots on the hardwood. I immediately jumped on Pinterest to see what to do. It turns out dogs urine causes the wood to turn black (who knew?). So I found a solution that I'm really excited to share with you. Peroxide! Awesome, I had plenty on hand and immediately started to try it out. At first I used a paint brush to apply it to the specific areas. Almo...

DIY IKEA Kitchen Shelf

It is finally complete! I have been working on decorating this bad boy for a few weeks now and I'm in love! Thanks to my dear husband we were able to turn this cheap IKEA shelving unit into an adorable farmhouse style kitchen shelf pretty easily. See below for our step by step! This is the IKEA Mulig Shelving Unit which is $59.99 for the largest size. This measures 47 1/4x13 3/8x63 3/4 " We purchased a 3/4" piece of plywood at Home Depot in which we got cut in store for each shelf. These measure 46 1/2" by 13" Also at a Home Depot we purchased a tube of Loctite Power Grip and a small can of Golden Pecan stain . This stain matches a few other items in our house so they would all look cohesive. Once home, let the staining begin. After one coat of stain was dry we used the Loctite to place the plywood on the shelves...
