Hi folks! What a week, huh? Oy vey!

My 24 hour shifts in the ER are done for the month! I can finally kick back and relax! These long shifts have definitely messed with my sleep schedule so I’ve been a little wonky the past two weeks. Sorry for the lack of posts! My lack-of-sleep brain doesn’t work too well.

We’ll be back to our regularly scheduled posts on Monday! Which reminds me… in 3 days I’ll find out IF I matched for residency and in 7 days I’ll find out where. #holyanxiety. I just need to take Hagrid’s wise words to heart. Whatever happens, happens. Wherever I end up, that’s where I’m supposed to be. And I’ll have my friends and family by my side. That makes it all okay.

I hope you all have had a swell week! I have some seriously beautiful ranunculus blooming in my kitchen right now and the lady bugs are in excess… Spring is here!!

I’m just going to ignore the fact it’s supposed to snow on Sunday. Winter, go away. Right now.

Happy Friday!

fashion, mint, spring

I must admit, I’ve always been a fan of the color mint. It’s such a pleasant color, isn’t it? I’ve been seeing quite a bit of it lately and am definitely okay with that!

It was 70 degrees in KC yesterday and will be 76 today… Spring is making its way in! Mint is such a Spring color so I think I’ll need to get one of each of these items in this fabulous color!

How amazing are those printed pants? I’m all about a printed pant! I think these might have to be a must-have item for the coming months!

Blazer, fashion, polka dots, spring

YOU GUYS. This week I….

1) Woke up to birds chirping.

2) Fell asleep to a thunderstorm.

3) Watched snow melt in 60 degree weather.

4) Wore my Spring sweaters.

5) Sported my Wellies.

6) Went for a walk with Tad and the pup.

7) Praised the good Lord above for SPRINGGGGG. Please oh please let it stay??!

The only thing I wish I could change is the dang black cat in the neighborhood that sits on our fence every day drooling over the newly created birds nest above our kitchen window. Damn cat! Scat! Those birdies need to fly! How high can cats jump? I’m seriously worried he’s going to snatch the birds! Google search: how to turn your neighborhood cat into an herbivore.

On a happier note, I dreamed up an outfit this week that consists of only the spring essentials: umbrellas, polka dots, and pastels. Sign. Me. UP!

Ray-Ban Aviators

SheInside- Apricot Short Sleeve Hollow Crochet Lace Top

I hope you all are getting a taste of the fabulous season to come. The best part of living in the midwest? Four seasons… even in February! #grateful

Happy Friday, friends! Have a great one!

Happy Easter weekend, folks!

It officially feels like Spring in Kansas City so I’ll be spending my weekend outdoors! Couldn’t be more excited.

Whether you’ll be hunting for Easter eggs or relaxing on a patio, we hope you have a fabulous weekend.

garden, spring

Happy first day of SPRING, friends!!! I could not be more excited for Spring this year… the cold was just a little too cold and the snow was just a little too much snow this winter.

Tad and I are moving to a cute little bungalow in June and we are over-the-moon excited. We LOVE loft life and living downtown but it’s time for Wilson to have a backyard and for me to have a garden!
