Monday Musings
It's Monday Musings time again for the first time in weeks!
- Can I start out with the most awesomest news ever?! You know how I've been blog MIA for awhile (off and on) because of sickness?? Well, Bonjour Jolie sent me flowers. Legit flower delivery from a sub company. A sub company that's as awesome as their box! I took a meh pic with my phone but they are beautiful flowers in their own adorable bucket! Definitely cheered me up. Bonjour Jolie- you are the bee's knees! Really though, one of the nicest things anyone has done for me all year!
- Non-blog stuff. I joined a gym- first time since I moved to Tejas! The sickness/fatigue let me gain all the weight back I lost in Saratoga back in July. Score. I'm supposed to be swimming for my arthritis/fibromyalgia so I finally hunkered down and joined a gym/pool. I joined yesterday and have swum twice. Already feeling better! Also, got a massage today (twice a month now with a Massage Envy membership) and my neck and arm feel soo much better. It feels good to take care of myself... Now to finally get that mani/pedi I've wanted for weeks!
- I re-subscribed to IndieSpensable. I cancelled and re-subscribed without missing a volume. I wanted it. What can I say?!? I haven't even read any reviews for this box anywhere else online so can I pretend I re-subbed for the good of humanity and making reviews available online... Sure...
- I was gonna do a Musings post with this last week than sickness, blah, blah. Anyway, if you haven't seen Ylvis- The Fox, you are missing out on ridicuousness! I read Buzzfeed and sites like iwastesomuchtime constantly so I was thinking I'd share more randomness on my site. So much random hilarity in the world to share!
- I think it'd be appropriate to call this the summer of netflix binging, at least in my case! One such show? Grey's Anatomy. I started the 9th season on Saturday (yes, I recently watched all first 8 seasons this summer- judge away!) and wanted to catch up before season 10 starts. And then I got bored. Season 9 is meh. It happens sometimes, especially in binges, but I grew bored of the show. I understand people left but adding so many new characters is bleh all at once and sorry to say it but Arizona is one of my least fav characters (her acting is fakey to me) so it's unexciting when she has one of the biggest storylines. Anyway, I switched to...
- Parenthood! I'd always heard it was good (even from my sis) but was pre-occupied with binging on other shows. I really wanted to watch Gilmore Girls (never watched it in order just random episodes during marathons) and randomly chose this and got my Lorelai fix another way. This show is super good- a good new dramedy to watch! Won't catch up in time for the new season but whatevs!
- I've been trying to catch up so look in my history for all the recent posts! I still have 6 August boxes to post and 8 September ones! I got three today! My only double is BarkBox which I got my Sept one today (I thought it was coming later!) so I'll figure out which to post first (Aug/Sept), other boxes include Wantable and Wantable Accessories, Ipsy, Birchbox, and Bespoke Post!! Hoping to get a few reviews in today and I should be caught up at the end of this week!! I've been skipping and back and forth with new boxes and Aug boxes- hope noone minds!
- Don't forget to enter my Fancy Box Giveaway! It's a good 'un!

I just signed up for a Bonjour Jolie subscription & am so excited - so nice to see they sent you flowers :) Also, Parenthood is amazing. I watched all the seasons on Netflix & I'm freaking out that a new season is coming on!
