So, the above quote doesn’t necessarily “speak Friday”, but it’s pretty funny and funny “speaks Friday” in a big way!! It’s FRIDAY!!! Happy FRIDAY!!! As seen on the internet, “Friday is the Welcome Wagon to the Weekend!” This Friday is a great big old Welcome Wagon to a lot of people who have the holiday week off next week. Enjoy your weekend! Have safe travels to your destinations and look forward to enjoying delicious food with the people you love this week! Life is good!
New readers, Fridays we keep it surface level. I discuss three favorite items/songs/apps, etc. that have worked out great for me. Every Favorite Things Friday I encourage everyone (I see the stats, people. I know that you are out there!) to share the love and make recommendations of your own.
Here are mine:
Awkward Family Photos Calendar – My husband put this calendar in my stocking last Christmas. It is hilarious. I hope to see the 2019 version in my stocking this Christmas (hint, hint). People send their craziest, funniest, most “what were they thinking??” family photographs to this company and they compile it into a daily, rip-off-the-page calendar. It’s like the paper version of America’s Funniest Videos. It brings a chuckle to me every morning and makes me realize that everyone has a little kookiness in their lives!
Lifestyle Products Amethyst Crystal Water Bottle – I’m almost embarrassed to put this one on the list, but I do LOVE it! It is a glass water bottle with a giant amethyst crystal poking through the bottle, so when you fill the bottle with water, the crystal is right in the middle of the water. Disclaimer, I got mine on clearance because I thought it looked incredibly neat. I’m pretty sure that I would never have paid full price for it, but I’m so happy to have it. Some people believe that the amethyst positively “charges” the water. It looks incredibly intriguing and it does make it easier for me to drink all that water that we are supposed to be drinking every day. You can get these water bottles with all different kinds of crystals and the bottom holding the crystal screws off, so the bottle part is easy to clean.
Wordscapes – This is my new game/app addiction on my phone. This is what I do when I am sitting on the couch with my guys while they’re watching sports. This is also what I do in waiting rooms, standing in lines at the store, at long red lights (but try not to because I know that this is dangerous. If any of my readers are police officers: I’m so sorry, officer. It won’t happen again.), before I fall asleep, when I want to stop my mind from racing, and when I am feeling competitive because I am surprisingly, highly ranked in Wordscapes’ regular tournaments. In short, I play it a lot. If you like word games and “fill in the blank” type crosswords, this is the game for you.
