FRIDAY!

 Hello FRIDAY! 

Can you just feel relief at the fact it is Friday today? I know that I am so so glad. This week was not a good one for taking pictures or having anything meaningful to share. But I like blogging on Fridays so here I am anyway. 

Yesterday I ran all the errands. And I don't like running errands. I am definitely an "if I can order it online" or do "curbside" pickup, I am in. Well, I took the kids to their rehearsal, and then I went to Michaels. This was the one place where, in fact, I had done an order ahead. And picking up your item at Michaels is as easy as grabbing a bag off a shelf. So I was happy! 

Then I went to Party City. M is going to a birthday party tomorrow and needed a Squishmallow keychain for her gift, and I knew they had them there. But also I am going to trivia tonight and I am in charge of tableware. While I could have gone basic, I instead opted for: 

A princess party! I got the big and little plates and napkins in this theme. 

Then I went next door to Staples to buy post-it flags. And that was a whole thing. I wandered the entire store looking for Post-It flags. But I found them and secured them! Yay! 

Then I went to Target to buy cutlery and cups for trivia. I opted to get a pack of anti-bacterial hand wipes too just in case anyone needs to clean their hands this evening. I also got eggs because I am practically a millionaire. 

That may not sound like a lot. But 4 stores in the span of an hour is A LOT for me. I didn't really enjoy shopping before COVID. And then with the world figuring out how to shop without going in during the worst of it... I haven't really needed to go shopping since then. Don't get me wrong, I will go shopping. But I am very much a one-store and-then get-back-home kind of person. 

The reason I had to go to Michaels was that I needed screen printing ink. And I needed screen printing ink because I had to make shirts. 

So last night I made shirts for my retreat group. 

Husband got me a Cricut for Christmas. Or he said he would. And then I got sick of waiting so I just ordered it myself. And it came yesterday. And so did the shirts. And I didn't have anything last night so I actually had time. So... the miracle of screen printing. 

I think they turned out great and I totally dig that they're handmade with love. 

But most of all... it's FRIDAY. And I am so happy!
