up..up...and away...

Brass vintage Amelie earrings $22 (Europe is my next wish list destination... *sigh*)

The last couple of weeks have been a blur. I finally hit 26 head-on and I have to say it wasn't so bad. I got treated to a relaxing one-hour massage and got to go to any restaurant of my choice (which was even more exciting because I've been eating super good which meant I could finally indulge...ooooh carbs, how I love thee). It was a quiet birthday but probably one of the best.

Getting older didn't feel that bad this year. Probably because I've had a ton of change going on so I didn't really have time to notice. We revamped the layout of the store to create more flow and room for new inventory. It's finally all coming together. On top of that I've been doing some wall painting, new furniture buying, and all that good stuff that comes with moving into a house. Who knew I'd enjoy shopping for paint. I love projects and this is definitely a big one, one that I'm super excited about so it's been a ton of fun. I'll be moving at the end of the month which means my apartment is full of boxes and my room is a mess. I can hardly find anything and my bed has become my second desk/thing to throw stuff on, but I'm happy.

To add to that my whole POS system at the store decided to go A-wall on me so we spent most of last week updating to an entirely new system and inputting everything back in. Not fun.

My family was also in town for a few days which meant dim sum and lots of visiting. I'm still trying to detox form all the sugar I had, including homemade cookies and cereal treats my neice made. We went to see Where the Wild Things Are and it was quite different from what I had thought it would be. I liked it a lot, especially the music, but it was deeper than I was expecting for a children's book.

Today: I got a bunch of new vintage jewelry in so I'll be working on that and making turkey meat balls for dinner.
