Welcome to a very special Valentine’s Day edition of our Friday linky. Tell me what’s on tap for you lovebirds and singles this weekend! Since it’s going to be negative 100 degrees all weekend long and I’m officially in hibernation, I’m all about Netflix and chill. Maybe I’ll make it to the gym but I can’t make any promises. I went to take Buster out earlier and nearly cried, so that’s basically where I’m at these days. Also? I really don’t like Valentine’s Day. I know I’ve said this in the past and I’m sorry if I’m upsetting any diehard 2/14 Club Members, but I went to CVS the other day for zit cream and had to fight the urge to vomit on the red and pink teddy bears and oversized cards. My inner Grinch grinched a little.
Here’s a quickie of some things that did make me happy this week:
- AMSTERDAM IS BOOKED! Well, not officially. But our flight is confirmed so at least we’re getting there.
- Bernie wins New Hampshire!
- Getting rejected from YET ANOTHER blog network yesterday and laughing because you know what? Their loss.
- Having the best friends ever—I can’t wait to see them again once we all leave our houses, lol.
- Finally breaking open the 12 days of Christmas coffee.
I received devastating news this week that an old coworker’s husband passed away unexpectedly and my heart just aches for her. It made me realize that I don’t want to miss any opportunity to show how much I love the people in my life — and I don’t need a dedicated day to do just that <3
What’s on YOUR gratitude list this week?
—
Amsterdam! Yay!
And Bernie! Yay!
As for the blog network, meh. You WORK for a blog network and you’re an awesome writer, so fooey on them.
I don’t know what a blog network is but it’s there loss.
I’ve actually given up on the blog networks, so we can start our own 😉 I have those valentine’s lights somewhere, but can’t put out any decorations because my boys destroy everything. So, you would be safe from any Valentine’s stuff around here 🙂 Have a fabulous weekend!
Oh so excited about your trip. Amsterdam is awesome!! At least I remember it being awesome, it’s been years that I went there but it was fabulous; even with the rain and all. 🙂
Happy Friday!
Sorry to hear about your friend’s loss. Happy to hear about Bernie blowing away NH. It’s going to be sooo cold this weekend. BTW, some people mistakenly believe “Netflix and chill” means what it sounds like but, actually, it has a much darker meaning. You might want to Google it…
Girl, I hear you on minus mabillion degrees this weekend. I’m scared for tomorrow. I’m going to the gym on Sunday but may go tomorrow just to warm the f up!! Otherwise, I’m in hibernation mode with all of the dogs and catching up on garbage tv that Jeff despises so much.
Wooo, so glad your flight is booked. That is progress, my friend. I was amazed at the size of the hotel rooms there in contrast to the shoe box-sized ones in Paris. I mean, it was a place to sleep and that’s about it, but dang. Eeeep! I’m so excited for you.
Stay warm girl. I keep telling the dogs they need to hurry it up outside. They’re like huskies I swear to god!! Lol.
Xoxoo
It is so the Blog Network’s loss. Keep doing what you are doing and don’t measure yourself by what others like that think. It’s so wonderful to look forward to a trip. I hope it’s a good (and warm) weekend.
A trip to Amsterdam sounds awesome!
