Happy Black Friday! I’m thankful for everyone who stops by this little slice of the Internet! Now let’s see what SIX things brought the sparkle in this Thanksgiving week:

One of my grad school friends works at my high school now, and she invited me to join her for a Christmas event last Friday night. I LOVED high school, so I was very excited to be back at the ol’ stompin’ grounds! Plus, it put me in the Christmas spirit! 🎄❤️

I painted my nails a nice festive shade in honor of Thanksgiving! It’s actually the orangey color from this post (Zoya Tawny), but as you can see, it came out a deep shimmery red, which I’m actually a big fan of. It’s very pretty in person!

Look at this adorable card Kristin’s sister sent me! What a sweet angel! It made my day! ❤️

I took Wednesday off and didn’t do much. And it was… weird. But pretty delightful. I took a couch nap, watched Days, General Hospital, and the “Gilmore the Merrier” Gilmore Girls marathon, put out some Christmas decorations, started writing out my Christmas cards, ordered a pizza, and called it a day. 👍😂

I really enjoy the Strange Planet cartoons, and not surprisingly, I especially love the ones about therapy. My therapists could easily say, “This is not the objective” to me because anxiety spiraling is like my middle name, haha WOMP.
