Here we are folks, the last Friday of August. I can’t believe tomorrow starts another month with the promise of a new season. I know I say this pretty much every year but this summer seems to have flown by! I didn’t get to do ALL the things I would have liked but the time spent with my daughter was enough to keep me busy. I miss her a lot…
I have a few posts I’m working on, one of which is my bedroom makeover. Unfortunately I hurt my back a few days ago and oh my, have I been in pain! I pretty much stayed in bed all week recovering. But the makeover will be up soon, promise!
Today I finally get to venture out for a long overdue hair appointment and I’m so looking forward to it. In the meantime, here’s a sneak peek of my bedroom… Have a great long weekend ahead! 
Here are a few things I’m loving this week…
I’ve had a lot of time to watch Netflix and found some great dramas. If you’re looking for some great recs for your down time here are my new faves:
- THE LODGERS, a great mild horror film
- MADAME BOVARY, a sad and incredibly painful twist of events for a young bride
- SUITE FRANCAISE, based on true events, a fantastic film of courage amidst war torn France
- BIG EYES, a woman’s struggle to find her courage to leap into independence
