Monday Musings
Monday Musings once again!
- Ok, I know I was gonna catch up and be sooo on top of things this week but ya, my schedule is crazy and it's not happening. I'll get to everything but with some 10-10 days this week, blogging is a SUPER hard thing to fit in. LUCKILY, the beginning of the month is a slow time to get stuff so I am able to play catch up! I'm posting on the weekends while I'm working so much so make sure to check out my Bespoke Post Review, Loot Crate Review, and BarkBox Review from the past few days!
- Since I didn't have the time I didn't do a post announcing Julep's Secret Store! I can't afford anything right now but I really like Julep's Wedding Bells set (pictured above). I still haven't gotten my Julep box this month although my add-on from Julep came already... super weird! I have about 7 posts before I get to June stuff aka Julep though so it's ok I haven't gotten it yet! Anyway, the store is only open another 24 hours from now so check it out! Julep's Ice Cream Sundae set looks great too!
- Fitbit update! You all know I love my Fitbit... well, I am failing this week! Not one day at 10,000 steps. My closest was a measly 8,000ish and that was because I had time to go for a run that day. I am floundering! Thank goodness I have a Fitbit to see how little I am doing. I need to find a way to get walks in. Argh! The sleep tracker (probably my fav thing about the Fitbit) is showing me sleeping for a few hrs a night aka not enough! AHHH!
- In tech news, I bought a Samsung Galaxy s4 (white) before I left since my phone's port was broken and wouldn't charge anyway and it's pretty much the most amazing phone ever. I highly recommend. It's the best phone on the market at this moment (could change tomorrow yaknow) and it's awesome. The issue? It cost me an arm and a leg. I figured I'd go top-notch though instead of a rung down since that would cost me a leg and most of an arm anyway. So, now all I have in my big buys list is a new laptop and maybe also a tablet...
*Update!!! I wrote this post last night and argh I opened my computer this morning and it completely dismantled itself!!!! The horror! Really though, if I can't semi-fix it, I either need to buy a new comp right now OR blogging will be on hiatus!
- People! Treatsie is awesome-sauce and I am doing a GIVEAWAY for a free box and I feel like not enough people know/have entered. Go do it! Right here! I did say FREE, right?
- Well, turns out May's PopSugar Must Have box was the best thing ever. I used the Beauty Blender and it is a Godsend AND the cleanser works on brushes too aka I am using it while traveling- score. I'm SO excited for June's box! Anyway, the box also had a $30 gift card to Charm & Chain. I surfed their site when I got the card and liked a bunch of stuff but couldn't decide and seeing the card the other day I decided to just go mini-giveaway on it! So $30 off anything on the site, the code is yours AND if you are a PopSugar Must Have subscriber and got the May box, I bet you could add them together... I don't actually know that for sure... I'll also throw in my $10 off at Shoptiques gift card just cause. Leave a blog post comment about anything- jewelry, this post, my blog, life in general and you'll be entered to win- Just make sure to check on FB/this post on Wednesday and I'll announce the winner so that we can get a hold of each other! Fun stuff!

I hope your computer is fixable! I love your blog and I'd be sad if it went on hiatus because of stupid technology. If it's on hiatus because of wonderful success in your career and/or personal life, that's different!
ReplyDeleteI have a very love hate relationship going on with your blog. I am totally obsessed with subscription boxes and love all the great reviews you do.. However my wallet not liking it so much.. But that's okay it is totally forgotten when all my boxes of awesomeness arrive :)
ReplyDeleteI just got my Bonjour Jolie box and I love it! Unrelated to this post, but related to the blog. It makes very happy. I hope you're computer situation gets better!
