day 31: One month!

I've offically completed Month One of this year long challenge. It's been a blast, and I really think I'll be able to keep this up for the entire year.

Here are a few pics from this weekend, I was sick all day so I don't have any new pictures.


Now back to the Grammy's and The Dugger Special.

Can I just say, I love love love Lady Gaga.

day 30: mmmmmmuffins.

Ever since I was little both sets of my grandparents have called me muffins...or mega muffins...meggie muffins etc. The title made me think of that, I'm fairly certian that you really don't care lol. I love my grandparents, alot.

Today was rough. I hit a brick wall and spent most of the morning in bed crying. Why...I don't know. It was strange. My mom eventually came in to talk to me, I think she finally understands sort of where I'm coming from...so hopefully things will get a bit better now.

We spent the morning cleaning up my room....I felt like I was in an episode of Hoarders. Sad but true. We got rid of alot of stuff, organized and put stuff away. I need to make a trip to Ikea soon in order to get some shelves and a shelving unit thing.

Tonight, I made muffins after dinner. I got a bit creative and made three different kinds (I'll admit, they were from a ready made package lol).

There was plain oatmeal, oatmeal chocolate chip and an experimental kind....Oatmeal Blueberry Strusel. They were delicious and I think I may have to make more lol. Kind of like a coffee cake muffin. mmm.

day 29: shopping fixes everything.

So after my funk yesterday (which is a long and complicated story) I decided to skip school today to sleep in. Jake and I woke up at about 8, I dropped him off at daycare shortly after 9, and then I ran some errands.
I went to Wal*Mart and bought some yogurt ($1/tub!) and the movie Ps. I love you among a few other things.

Then I went to Old Navy, where this weekend if you wear red, a maple leaf or anything that says Canada on it you get 30% off your purchase. I ended up buying Jake 2 pairs of pants, 2 shirts, 2 pairs of flip flops and a hat for $48. Talk about an awesome deal.
Then I went to Michaels and bought some more stuff for that reward chart I posted about before...I changed my mind and now I'm making it out of felt because I think it'll look nicer. I also bought wall decals (planets, stars etc) which will look awesome in our room.

After that, I met a friend for coffee. It was really nice to see her again, I wish we could hang out more often, but we're both really busy. It was a really nice way to spend the afternoon. She took me to a store in Uptown Waterloo called Kid Kouture. It's a boutique that sells highend childrens clothing (brands like Blu, Deux par Deux...Catamini?) Anyway, I bought 5 shirts from there for him at like $15 a peice (a great deal if you ask me). They are having a huge sale on all Fall and Winter clothing - its all 50% off! Designer clothing for half the price....fabulous if you ask me! It's one of my new favourite stores I think.

My Loot.
Shirts from Kid Kouture.

When I got home, a dress I bought the other day had arrived! I was hesitant about buying it because I didn't know how it would fit, but I looooooove it! I can't wait for spring so I can wear it all the time.

Cute huh? It looks funny because a) its a mirror picture and b) my jeans are still on...but isn't it adorable?! I'm glad the London Moms talked me into it.

All in all...it was a very productive day. I'm glad I took time for myself today...lets hope this improves my mood for awhile.
