Happy Friday Friends! Its also Friday the 13th... so have some fun, okay?!? Do something outside your comfort zone on this awesome Friday the 13th and tell me about it in the comments ๐
I feel like its been forever since we chatted! Literally.. its been ONE day where I didn't do Instagram Stories (You can follow along HERE because I lost my voice.. thanks to a bacterial infection my daughter passed to me (thanks daycare!).
So here I am, typing.. because ya know.. I sound like a horse I think. Really, I sound horrendous. When I went to get my daughter yersterday from my sweet FiL, I opened my mouth and was horrified because nothing came out. I mean a croak came out, which made baby girl's face turn all weird. She was probably wondering "Who is this person who looks and smells like my mama, but sounds like a farm animal". It took her a whole half an hour to figure out that it was just ME! So.. I wanted to spare y'all that on stories and decided a blog post will just do. Who knows, maybe by the time you read this, My voice will be back ๐
So really, we have been down in the dumps all this week with this bug. Lots of kleenex, hot tea, honey, cinammon, ginger.. you name it - we done it! And now.. we have resorted (or been prescribed) to the all-knowing Amoxicillin. Thank goodness for modern medicine.ย
In other news, for my canadian rae dunn hunters - The Snacks and Sweets Cannister's are out and available at your homesense/winners/marshalls.. but you have to get there before the shelf clearers. Because y'all theres a TON of those. I just watched the replay of a LIVE video that my friend Jenny at A Clean Prism Life did this morning while she went to a Home Goods at opening. She said she got there right when the store opened, and as she entered.. a man was already at the check out with a CART full of cannisters. He must have been running through the store, chucking those cannisters in his cart at the speed of lightning (or IMO, had an inside hook-up.. JUST SAYING!). So she saw him and while she was walking through the aisles, she told her audience about this.. and guess what. that guy over heard her, walked over (while she was recording) and told her he had LEFT all the other stuff for her (which was like ONE large letter dish... come on dude). So the shelf clearer's exist in real life!! I saw one on her live video and another friend said she is pretty sure she saw our local Mississauga shelf clearer in flesh and blood at one location this week.. !! So if you wants your Snacks and Sweets, go at opening time! Also, don't bother calling any locations, because they all told me that they are tired of everyone calling.ย

In other news, Fall is finally here and cooler temperatures are here.. meaning its sweater weather and pumpkin spice time! I shared the fall porch at the Mint Candy Abode this week - in case you missed it, catch up HEREย .ย Here is a sneak peak for ya ๐ And I am also so excited to be partnering with the talented Qurrat of Qurrat A'yun Studios to style two shoots for her fall mini sessions - If you wan't beautiful fall photos, click HERE and sign up! Trust me, spots sell out FAST and you don't want to miss out!
In other news, I also shared my favourite comfy outfit yesterday on my stories featuring this adorable muscle tee which I paired with a light black cardigan. Literally, I did not want to take it off to change into PJ's at night.. Okay I slept in it. It was that soft! The tank runs small in size, so order one size up or grab it on your next grocery run to Target ๐ Also, if you don't own these AMAZING brown booties, you need a pair in your life AND they are on major sale! They run true to size ( I ordered size 7 and they fit perfectly) and take a couple of wear to break into. They make any outfit look put together.. like today, I wore leggings and raggedy shirt to my doctor to get a prescription. Put on the booties and BAM - outfit complete. You are welcome! Get your pair now!! All sources are linked below for ya ๐
So all in all, its been a mehh week. But we are getting better here and hopefully we will be stronger for it the next time a bug comes around! Hope you have a wonderful Friday friends <3ย Also, If you like my posts and want to be the first to know, don't forget to subscribe below for all the fun and action!
