I don’t think I have 5 things to talk about this Friday but let’s see if I can rack my brain. However, before I do, did you know that AMAZON PRIME is on SALE today?!
ONE
I am slowly recovering from Blog Elevated. What is it about a conference that can exhaust you so much?! I assume the lack of sleep and the constant socializing. I flat out can NOT sleep on a hotel bed. I think I got 3 hours Friday night and maybe 4 hours Saturday night. Oh well. It was well worth it.
TWO
I have become obsessed with high-end cosmetic dupes. Why?! I bought a few “cult” favorites and they did not live up to the hype. At all. I took 4 products that totaled $120 back to the store. I found near identical “dupes” at target. They work EXACTLY the same if not better than the $$ counterpart. You will have to excuse my pinterest account.
THREE
I received 2 pair of Nabi headphone in an extras goodie bag a while back. It’s NOT actually part of the campaign so I have no obligation to mention them but my boys really LOVE them.
FOUR
We had our first rushed morning. Charlie took benedryl and didn’t hear his alarm and and Will woke up at 5 and couldn’t get back to sleep. He finally dozed back off and missed his alarm. Charlie woke up at the time they boys are normally walking out the door. When he drove up in the red convertible all the safety patrol kids were wishing they could have gotten the “cool car”. Will was embarrassed.
FIVE
William brought home his first progress report and I am very impressed. We didn’t grade when we homeschooled so this is all new for him, as is adjusting to 4 different teaching styles instead of just one. We all realize there is room for improvement, and we know where our new kid mistakes were.

I’m glad your son is adjusting to a new school method! I was homeschooled at the way until college, and it was much more of an adjustment than I thought it would be.
Love that you found some good dupes! Target is my one-stop for all things beauty…especially since the Cartwheel app doesn’t work at Sephora. Ha!
Have a great weekend!

Hi Priscilla. Already miss seeing all of you! ? I was JUST talking to my husband last night about girls’ progress reports, what An adjustment it has been, and where they can improve. Overall, doing really well. Oh, and I LOVE Target!
Priscilla says
I miss you too. I wish you were closer. PS I love your idea about what we can call our series.

Wow! Already time for progress reports, huh? Since we chose the Tuesday ayer Labor Day as our start, we are just a couple of weeks in. Glad that Will is doing well though I expected nothing less.
I love learning about the dupes from you! You should start a YouTube series.
Who is that gorgeous girl at BE? LOL!
