Super short, quick, bare-bones Friday Finisher this week. I almost didn't post, but then thought better of it. I had a pretty simple week...except for the fact that my oven is currently broken. Thankfully I have this for some essential things, but the cooking/baking I wanted to work on this week didn't happen. Hopefully the replacement part we need will get here and get installed this weekend! Fingers crossed!
Besides my oven dieing, I almost died too! I randomly broke out into full body hives while I was eating dinner last Saturday (don't worry, this allergy girl stocks the Benadryl). Then yesterday, Thursday, I was vacuuming in the morning while I waiting for water to boil and make my morning coffee. While I was wrapping the cord of the vacuuming back up, I swung and smashed the hard metal prong just under my left eye, broke skin, and now have my very first black eye. I know...I have no words either. At least it's summer and people wear sunglasses when out and about!
