fill in the blank friday

Hello, Friday!  You're being welcomed with open arms.

Since it's Friday and I haven't played along in a while, here is today's Fill in the Blank's brought to you by Lauren of The Little Things We Do.

1.  The highlight of my week was    paying off my credit card!!.

2.   If I had to classify my interior design aesthetic it would be    coastal, a bit of modern, simple and clean and natural, maybe with a splash of yellow or coral .

3.  My first vehicle was   a 1991 silver Honda Accord.  I still miss that body style, it was cute and got great gas milage! .

4. An item I need to have in my day in order to function is   coffee.

5. My favorite way to waste time is   anything on the computer or iPad.  Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest.  I am a master FB stalker.

6. Right now I could really go for   a Starbucks, which will happen shortly and getting out of the house.  The joys of working from home is looking forward to getting out of the house on Friday's!   .

7.  This weekend I will be   looking for housing in Maui, going to a bead show, and watching the WCC Basketball Tourney .

Have a great weekend and see you back here on Monday!

It's been a while, but I am linking up over at The Little Things We Do today for Fill in the Blank Friday.  Come play along...it's fun!

[Jimmy-catching some rays on my desk]

1.   The last thing I ate was     Almond Rocca, like 20 pieces of it!  Washed them down with some ice cold water   .

2.   The last song I listened to was    Zac Brown's "Martin"      .

3.  Using the letters in my name I can spell    ughh...it is far too early in the morning to use my brain and my long name.  We'll just skip this one!     .

4.  If I had to dress in one color for the rest of my life I would pick     black, black and more black.  A color (technically not a real color) that I wear almost everyday already, so I guess not much would change    .

5.  If you were to look in my bag right now you'd find    well, lucky for you all, I just cleaned my bag, otherwise this post would have gotten significantly longer.  I have my wallet, gift cards/coupons, keys, loose change for parking meters, two cell phones, my husbands chewing tobacco can and come loose beads (random, I know).

6.  When I finish filling in the blanks I'm going to    shower and go  .

7.  My all time favorite song to dance to is    I don't dance...not my thing!  .

Yesterday I took the dogs to the lake for a little reprieve from the hot, hot weather we have been having.  They of course had a blast and were so tired they could barely eat their dinner.  It makes me so happy to see them enjoying life and the excitement for whatever we take them to do.  I want to be a dog.  In my house.

My Friday will be spent catching up on loose ends around the house, having dinner with family and enjoying the sunshine.  No solid plans to speak of.

Since it's Friday again, so you know what that means....play along with us over at The Little Things We do.

1.   My plans this summer include       going to the lake, going to Maui at the end of summer, eating an abundance of fresh fruits and yard work  .

2.  The best summer I ever had was    as a child packing up to go the lake for vacation each summer.  It was like going to Disneyland for us.  We were allowed to eat junk, drink pop and stay up past 8  .

3.  Summer is     relaxing and spending a lot of time outdoors and near water.  It is a happy time that I wish would never end  .

4.  My favorite summer food is   watermelon .

5.  The best way to quench a summer thirst is with     ice cold water (boring, I know) or a Sprite  .

6.  My summer uniform consists of       tank tops, shorts and flip flops.  Simple and comfortable   .

7.  The best thing about summer is       that it brings everyone outside--neighbors and friends.  The days are long and the air is warm.  I don't have to wear a sweater.  I can have my sunroof open and the windows down  .

Oh my gosh.  Crazy week, but alas it is Friday.  My favorite day of the week.  I am taking it easy this weekend with chores around the lake cabin and my garden before I head into the last three chaotic days of work before the office's summer hiatus.

Friday=Fill In The Blank Friday, so here goes nothing!

1.   The last thing I ate was       green salad, french fries and tarter sauce --it was tasty.

2.  The next thing I'd like to eat is    watermelon and raspberry's  .

3.  The best things     in my life are my fur babies...all six of them. I miss them so much when I am out of town  .

4.  Something that makes me supremely and utterly happy is   getting ready for vacation .

5.  Sports are     --college sports are part of everyday living at our house, especially Gonzaga basketball.  Life stops at game time  .

6.  I miss       Maui...but I'll be there much sooner than I anticipated.  I miss the water, the sand, the flowers, the warm air, wearing flip flops and shorts, riding a bike and just hanging out    .

7.  Right now I am       just trying to wake up and get my thoughts in order   . 

Have a great Friday everyone.  Hoping to be back to a regular routine mid next week.

It's Friday again so you know what that means.....Fill In The Blank Friday.  I am grateful the weekend is here and that I have today off.  We don't have any exciting plans other than working on the patio, running errands and just hanging out.

1.   The last movie I saw was       Bridesmaids ---it was pretty darn good   .

2.  I want to    chocolate fro-yo topped with colored sprinkles and marion berry's  .

3.  Surprises are     not cool.  Despise them.  I like to be "in the know" at all times, probably because I hate being embarrassed  .

4.  The best accessory is   shoes ---in all colors, shapes, styles .

5.  My favorite warm drink is     a grande, non-fat, no whip, no foam, extra hot, 2 pump mocha, 4 pump peppermint, peppermint mocha.  I am slightly addicted to Starbucks coffee's  .

6.  My favorite cold drink is       Sprite   .

7.  Currently loving       bright summer-y colors---corals and yellows; handbags; puppies (I want one SO bad) and traveling ---anywhere!   I am always researching destinations, prices, etc.   . 

I hope that you all have a restful weekend as well!  See you on Monday.

Playing along again with Lauren over at The Little Things We Do for Fill In The Blank Friday!  Very happy that it is Friday and the beginning of a long weekend.  I am off to the Nordstom Half Yearly Sale this morning and then heading to the lake to open the cabin up for the summer time!  It sure doesn't feel or resemble summer around here, but I am confident it is just around the corner.

1.   If I could get away somewhere for the weekend I would go       Maui and spend the entire time at the beach   and I would bring      my husband and dogs   .

2.  Something I often rant about is    people who don't take care of their animals, irritating children at restaurants, stupid clients who are in trouble with the law but think they are justified, and bad drivers...to name a few  .

3.  One item I need to have in my fridge at all time is     fresh fruit...and a lot of it   .

4.  My "life-saving" product is   Starbucks coffee  .

5.  A friend is someone who     loves you for you...the good, the bad, the ugly.  Supports your dreams, is always there when you need a shoulder, loves to gossip and doesn't tell secrets  .

6.  If I could write my own blank it would be       If you could be/do anything you wanted or have have the perfect job, what would it be and why   .

7.  My favorite kind of art is       photography of people I know, my animals and places I have been.  I Love reminiscing about all my favorite experiences thus far  .

It's Friday again, so that means Fill In The Blank Friday!  I am, as always, happy that it is Friday because it means no work and the weekend is near.  Today the sun is actually shinning and the temps are beginning to rise into the 60's and 70's!

1.   People always tell me I look like       no one famous that I am aware of!  Most people think my mom and I are sisters   .

2.  Friends don't let friends    be alone during a tough/difficult situation--they always have your back  .

3.  A sunny day is perfect for     going to the lake, eating outside, taking the dogs for a long walk, having the sunroof open   .

4.  My favorite accessory is   my tahitian pearl earrings from Maui  .

5.  If I could afford it I would     quit my job and focus on my vacation rental business  .

6.  The cure for boredom is       go to a movie, walk the mall, take the dogs for a ride or go to Starbucks   .

7.  I am currently "in like" with       Starbucks, getting a puppy, moving to Maui    . 

Ahh...I am quite pleased it is finally Friday.  I am going to be heading off to a neighborhood garage sale this morning in one of the upscale neighborhoods in Spokane.  Couldn't me more excited.  I'm hoping to find a treasure or two...or three or four.   Garage/Estate sales means summer is around the corner!

I'm playing along again over at The Little Things We Do with Fill In The Blank Friday.

1.   What I love most about my home is       is that it has endless potential and looks very stately from the outside  .

2.  I'm excited because,    because the weather has been above 60 this week and I have seen the sun for more than 3 minutes.  I'm also excited because we have an unscheduled, low-key weekend ahead of us  .

3.  My preferred method for blowing  off steam when I'm frustrated is     to talk to my chocolate lab.  He understands everything.  I also like to shop alone and just think, internalize things and move on   .

4.  Currently I am craving   McDonald's french fries. I like them right out of the fryer  and freshly salted  .

5.  The thing I love most about my mom is     that she is the most selfless person I know. She's the kind of person who would drop everything she was doing or come over in the middle of the night if you needed her (stealing this part from Lauren because she couldn't have said it better).  She is also the greatest support system and will support just about any project, idea or decision if it may you happy---and that's pretty cool  .

6.  If I was going to write a book about my life, the title would be       one girl, three dogs, three cats and a husband--enough said!   .

7.  If I were to eat one thing for the rest of eternity it would be       fruit.  Watermelon or pineapple or crisp apples  .
