I have been doing things. Not so many things. I managed to still have large chunks of boredom-even on a holiday weekend. It’s LABOR Day, you Canadians. Not LABOUR Day. Ugh

I also neglected to take pictures of every little thing I did because I like to see things in real life- not always through the lens.

Mac N Cheese, people. I had a craving on Friday that would not go away. It’s a ‘kid’ meal, so I notched it up to the adult level by accompanying the meal with a vodka soda. Weird combo, but it worked.

Then Saturday came. A beautiful day on a holiday weekend. And I worked on my final for grad school. Gross. I actually cried because I have been just so frustrated with my super absent professor, that I just wanted to wash my hands of this nonsense. But it’s over now, and I have a 2 1/2 week hiatus before I begin my LAST TERM of grad school. Jazz hands!

So that brings us to today. I was pretty excited for today because I was going to buy a pen to address the Save the Dates. (omg how sad. I was actually excited to go buy a pen. A PEN.)

 

And to make my day feel just a little bit more successful, I took the pup back to the park.

 

Graceful as always.

That is all for now. With that, I leave you with one piece of advice:
