Catch up.

Happy Monday, future Jenni and everybody who doesn't read this blog!

JK...to the former, not the latter.  This Monday won't be happy until there's about two more gallons of coffee flowing through my system.  Workin' on it.  The shoppette (aka cheap gas station store thing on post) has some cheap version of pumpkin spice coffee and I'm sucking that shit down like water, or booze.  Pick your poison.

Time to share some good vibes for the start of this week!  Get happy, mah peoples!

Now, let's catch up.

- I'm 22.  Its a big deal, don't get it twisted.  My birthday was filled with delicious food and copious amounts of alcohol.  Do I remember most of the night?  No.  Was it amazing?  Hell yes.  Youngins, don't learn from me.  Alcohol is really bad for you and will make hair grow on your chest.

- Three more weeks until this semester is over!

- It snowed.  Winter is here.  Wah wah.  If I wasn't such a chicken about driving in crappy weather then I might feel a bit more positive about this development.

 

 

Landscaping pro, obvs.

 - Close friend, who I have talked a little about on here previously, and I are no longer friends.  Not my choice, and truly for the best.  Obviously she was at her wits end with something, though I'm not sure what since there was no communication at all, and I was almost there myself.  I hate to sound lame and cliche but good damn riddance.

 - I'm hosting my first ever Thanksgiving meal this week.  It'll just be me and ten "gentlemen" aka guys focused on beer.  How is there ever going to be enough food?  Idk, don't ask me, I'll let you know later.

Somebody bring me some more coffee.  Bitte (please)?

XO, Jenni

Hard times and simple joys.

Yesterday, in a word, sucked.  It was true Monday Madness.

I'm not the type to air out dirty laundry, especially when it doesn't just involve myself, but let's just say that things at work aren't okay; being blamed for something that's not your fault by people you thought were friends is not fun.  A coworker I consider one of my best friends even came to my desk just to yell at me.  And though I don't have to go to work today, I'm counting on being shamed more when I go back tomorrow.  Whoopee.

That's why I thought it was appropriate to make-up Monday's Inspiration today!  There's never a bad time to bring some more positivity in to this world.  And its so important that, even through those times in which bad things are unjustly happening to you and you feel more alone than ever, you hold your head high and continue sharing love.

Why does it seem that its during the tough, lonely times that we tend to find simple joys and build a strong sense of self?  Though, maybe it's just me.

Today's simple joys:

Watching Mirror Mirror (LOVE Lily Collins and the styling is ridic)

Working on homework

Drinking coffee

Doing laundry (better than lighting a candle)

Loving on my dog

Keep holding on, lovelies.  New beautiful things are waiting right around the corner.  And go find the simple joys, you won't regret it.

XO, Jenni
