1. I'm going to preface that I never take pictures of myself, so this picture took about 10 different tries and recommendations from three really good friends. I decided to take a picture in front of some of my social studies themed posters.
2. It is pretty rare that I wake up early enough to stop and grab a cup of coffee or something for breakfast just because of how early I have to be at work (6:50AM), but I did Monday! I stopped at Bruegger's and got an asiago parmesan bagel with light herb garlic cream cheese (for real, it's so good). I also got a cup of pumpkin spice coffee, but by the time I was able to sit down and take a picture of my breakfast, it was after 2nd period and I had downed the coffee about two hours before.
3. I had a late day at work administering make-up assessments. I stopped at the Post Office on my way home to grab some stamps so I could mail out our Save the Dates on Tuesday, and the darn post office was closed by the time I got there. So I rushed home to get to Winston. He is so super fluffy, so he loves cooler weather! It took approximately 15 tries before I could get a picture of him before he popped up and started running around like something crazy again.
4. My general rule of thumb is not to drink coffee after 6:00PM because I can't sleep at night, but I couldn't seem to shake a headache I had or a chill that I had from the weather. So, I had a cup of coffee while grading some assignments. Sadly, I did not make much of a dent in that stack, but I did finish all of that grading Tuesday! P.S. those pens are my favorite.
5. After grading assignments, I finished addressing the last few Save the Dates, and double checked all the writing. I have really enjoyed my Southern Living Wedding Planner. It came in really handy when figuring out how to address certain types of envelopes. I switched from coffee to champagne since Monday was technically my Thursday, and I always have a glass of champagne on Thursdays.
6. After I finished the Save the Dates (finally!), I painted my nails with Essie's Shearling Darling polish.
So, that was a fairly typical day for me. I wish it had been more exciting, but ya know. I did snap a picture of my outfit, but you know that isn't my strong point either. That outfit made Monday/Thursday so much easier to get through.

Today, I'm holding the RDU Baton (@rdubaton), and will be posting about some of my favorite places in Raleigh/Holly Springs/Apex/Cary. Be sure to check it out!
