Pearl Bracelets!

What an exciting week I have planned!

I'm getting back on the wagon again!  By back on the wagon, I mean I am changing lifestyle choices.  By life style choices, I mean I am going to get back into shape.  I'm going to start eating right again.  I was doing SO well for a while there, and then life happened.  I haven't been dedicated to the gym since.  I don't just want to be skinny...I'm already skinny.  I want to have ABS!

Every year I claim I'm going to have abs.  This year is different...I can feel it!  I have Jake to come with me.  May I take a moment and applaud my husbands new muscular arms...yes I can, because it is my blog...and if you don't like it, then tough!  I really enjoy this new job of his where he lifts every day.  I've noticed they are bigger (I am an arms girl), but he flexed for me the other day...and HOLY SMOKES!  There is a giant lump where the bicep is...a GOOD lump. Holy smokes!  I'm so excited about these lumps.  Anyways, Jake is wanting to lift more too...so we are going to be accountability partners.  That is why it is going to be different this time.  We are going to push each other...no slacking!  Today I had mostly fruits and veggies to eat.

I have a confession..I broke down and went tanning today.  I couldn't help it!  It makes me feel good...and the gloomy, cold weather makes me depressed sometimes.  Also, I have been noticing horrendous dark circles under my eyes lately because the color in my skin seems to be gone.

So!  A complete stranger liked one of my makeup Pins on Pinterest the other day.  That was cool and made me excited!

Anyways...I am excited for this weeks festivities...

I get my bonus Wednesday.

Thursday, I have the YPGP social.  I am excited for this because we get to go through the Peoria Riverfront Museum for free.  I have been wanting to go, but I felt it was more money than I was willing to spend.  It should be a fun one.

Friday--I was invited to a Bradley University MBA program dinner.  So I will be having free dinner and a fancy schmancy restaurant in The Heights.  Also, the favorite band is back at Crusen's.  I will be seeing them and loving it.

Saturday, off to Chicago we go!  Jake, brother Nick, some friends and I are traveling 2 hours north to the Chicago auto show.  I'm quite excited!  I've never been...but I heard it is a blast.

Sunday is my best friend Ashley's open house.  Her and her boyfriend Zach recently purchased a home.  That should be fun.

So...I tried making my own bracelets.  I must say they came out quite well.  What I used:

Jewelery wire, white pearls, and ribbon!
