Sunday Round Up

September thus far has been very kind to me. Except missing my husband like crazy, because that part is lonely. Oh so lonely. To start off the month, I purchased my first ad space at Jellibean Journals. Then it was my birthday on the 2nd. Though it was a very quiet one, I still had a good one and feel incredibly blessed and loved by my family and friends. I received some things I ordered online from Zoya, Macy's and Erin Condren. You know what's really funny? All 3 orders there was something either broken, missing or wrong color, BUT I have received AMAZIIIING customer service from Zoya and Erin Condren, so it makes up for it :)

Then, on Sunday evening I received not only a tweet, but an email saying Oh My Tookies purchased a sponsor ad from ME! ME. Little ole' me! I literally screamed, started getting a little shakey and was so overwhelmed with excitement. Who is Oh My Tookies? They make homemade jar cakes, cookiewiches and their famous gourmet marshamllows. I do not recommend looking at their Etsy shop on an empty stomach! So, if you have no clue who they are or curious, check out there blog and their shop!



I've also been keeping a gratitude journal on my phone and have posted each day on Instagram except today. I plan to keep up with it for a year while hubby is deployed. It'll be interesting to see what I was grateful each day he's gone. Alright friends, I'm watching Breaking Amish right now and getting completely sidetracked! Hope you guys had a great weekend!!

Sunday Round Up + Sponors

I've been looking into purchasing sponsor ad space for quite awhile now, but I didn't want to commit into spending money and then not blogging. I apparently have a habit of sort of falling off the face of the blog world mainly due to laziness. But, recently, I have decided that I want to be more productive and more open on this blog about myself and my life ramblings. And of course meet amazing friends! Due to Instagram alone, I have met quite a few pretty effin' awesome ladies, which through blogging I hope to get to know more about you girls ♥ Since I think maybe yesterday or Friday, my blog stats have slightly gone up which makes me incredibly giddy and I want to personally thank Jelli at Jelli Bean Journals for the shout out on Twitter. Thank you thank you thank you!! That's a hint for YOU to go visit her blog and follow :)

So, this is our last weekend before hubby deploys and we're just hanging out at home. I got him addicted to Chef Ville on Facebook and he literally spent all day Saturday playing. He's packing up the rest of his things today. It's all a very bittersweet weekend leading up to the day he leaves. I think I'm some what prepared, but I'm pretty sure it won't fully kick in until one night when I lay down to bed and feel the loneliness next to me, though I do have 2 dogs to keep me company. Just thinking about it makes me feel a bit ill now. This will be our second deployment (not including him being stationed there before) and it will be my first one doing it all by myself. Back in the day, I lived at home and I had a good support system, but out here... not so much. Hopefully I get a job soon and that will keep me busy!

To recap my weekend, on Friday, I went ahead and transferred my license to WA since it expires on my birthday this year (Sept 2!). Which, yes, I know I can keep my CA license blahblahblah. Ended up running a few errands, painted my nails which sadly chipped the next day and I ended up removing it. We also made our last Drive Thru Boba run together. I also went to Uwajimaya since they close at 10PM and I finally found Matcha KitKat!! I have been looking for these for a really long time now and when we were on leave in Cali, Mitsuwa didn't have any :(

Saturday, we just hung out, watched movies, listened to K-Pop while I secretly fan girl over Big Bang), played Chef Ville. All very chill. It's about 2:16AM Sunday as I type this, so I need to head up to bed. Sunday will probably be spent helping him pack and get ready for the start of the week.

What did you do this weekend??
