Babe, if you’re one of those lucky people able to sleep in Saturday mornings, I’m majorly jealous. I get up at 5:30 during the week, and I really, REALLY wanted sleep in till at least 7:30 this morning, but alas, my body had other plans… I’ve been up since 6, GAH!
Oh, well. At least I’ve gotten a few things done. I watered the plants in the Lady Sanctuary, made food, fed the baby, ran on the treadmill (BTW, one of the best purchases I’ve ever made. Got it in 2011 with an extended warranty, and it still gets use.), and now I’m about to go KonMari Method on the mountain of miscellaneous baby accouterments, like giant pregnancy pillows and too-small diapers, that now lives in the middle of my bedroom.
So at least there’s that… No sleeping in, but at least I’ve been moderately productive.

Have a good rest of your Saturday, OK? I hope it’s a nice day there. I have a few more chores to do and one errand to run, but them I’m driving into the city for high tea at the Fairmont with a few friends from school. That should be fun. Scones and lemon curd for everyone!
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
