Weekend Review

pizza

(making a bit of a trek on Saturday night to get pizza at what is apparently the best pizza place in Houston)

It’s interesting. For so many years of my life I would crave the weekends like it was nobody’s business. I would count the minutes until those 2 glorious days off, and I would be so extremely upset when Sunday night rolled around because Monday was on the horizon. Now, I’m not about to tell you I have the best job in the world and every single day is perfect (because, well, that’s obviously not true). However, I am going to say that I’ve come to a place in my life where I can honestly say I do love my job, and I look forward to waking up and doing my job most days. Of course, there are times I get frustrated, upset, and annoyed, but overall, I’m very content with my 9-5 situation (it’s never actually 9-5, but let’s go with it). Yes, I still love my weekends, but I no longer dread Sunday nights or count the seconds until it’s Friday at 5. It’s a nice feeling. And, with that, I hope you all have a great weekend!

(going to a pottery studio on Saturday afternoon, and I couldn’t be more excited (it’ll bring me back to my elementary school days))

(Matthew and I are moving in a couple months, and after seeing this image on The Everygirl yesterday, I think I can stop searching for inspiration for my new home office because this is simply perfection)

    Ok–that pizza looks AMAZING! Seriously, yum! You’ll have to let us know if it really is the best in Houston. And I feel the same way about my job–I love the weekends and miss them when they’re over, but I genuinely enjoy coming to work! It’s a nice feeling!
