How was your week? Mine went by quickly, but it was busy and intense. I am a grading machine with AP Spanish essays; I’m trying to get them feedback because we are so close to the exam. My Spanish 3 classes are working on a newscast, sports broadcast, or a human interest story in groups and I think those will be fun.
It’s time to link up with Andrea and Erika for Friday Favorites!
Ok – love Method and this smells amazing. I prefer a more masculine scent and cannot stand anything too floral like rosewater.

This is not new to me but I thought I should mention it. It really works. If you are traveling this summer, staying with friends, or sharing a house this would alleviate some embarrassing odors if you know what I mean.

This cleaner is not new to me either, but I picked up another bottle for the season. It smells just like the Capri Volcano candle. It kinda makes me want to clean, but just kinda.

I picked up this purple shampoo to use a few times a week. I do think it helps to keep color treated hair from looking too brassy – not that I would personally know about color treated hair. A friend told me – ha!

I found a good (to me) cracker at Costco. They are quite substantial and they are really good with a Laughing Cow wedge. I wonder if my Swedish friend also eats these kind of crackers.

I have really been trying to have dinner ready and then go walk with Ernie and Tom and then heat up our plates when we get done walking. We walk around a school grounds and it makes Ernie soooo happy!

Tom trying to get more exercise in!

Tom and I drive separately to the gym because he stays longer than I do. I looked over and noticed he had hooked his keys over mine.

It’s the little things…
We went ahead and had our two horrible bathrooms demolished:

I am mildly freaking out. There is so much dust. We are making one hall bathroom out of these two little bathrooms, but we have to design it and order all the fixtures. At least we have a door that will remain shut so I don’t have to look at it.
Last night we had breakfast for dinner so I made a mimosa to enjoy on the deck for a bit. It was almost Friday, right?

What were your favorites this week? I hope you had many!
Our college kids are bringing a load home this weekend and then they have finals and will move home in a week for the summer. I cannot believe they have already completed two years of college!
Happy Friday!

It really is hard to believe that 2 years of college have gone by. It will be so nice to have your boys home for the summer. Have a great weekend.

The keys made me smile. So sweet. I can’t believe your boys are halfway finished with college. Crazy! I went to a boutique yesterday (on the hunt for an oaks dress) and they gave me a watermelon mimosa. It was good. I hope your have a great weekend

Ha! I know! OHHHHH – Oaks! I have to help move out of dorms on Oaks. They have to be out by noon! Ugh! I can’t wait to see your dress and hope you found one. A watermelon mimosa sounds amazing and I think I recall TJ’s having watermelon juice?
