Soapbox, Christmas Dreams, and TV Recs....
What better way to end the week than with a little Five on Friday!
{one} I eventually had to get off social media yesterday, after hitting the "unfollow" button a few days. I'm sad that people don't seem to realize that freedom of speech just protects you from being arrested or charged with a crime when you speak your mind...it does not give you the right to say anything you want without consequences. I also find it sad that people are rallying around a reality star as a voice of Christian teachings...a reality star. But most of all, I'm sad that so close to Christmas, anyone thinks it's okay for someone to such vulgarity and hatred towards a group of people. What was that Jesus said? Love one another.
{two} It's going to be in the 60's this weekend here in Jersey....cue singing angels! I just need all this snow to melt quickly so I can run outside!
{three} For Christmas this year I would like a week-long tropical vacation...by myself. I'd take even just a really good long nap.
{four} Each of the girls is getting a *huge* present from Santa this year. Emmy's is a princess castle, and Charlie is getting a dollhouse. My aunt snagged it off the side of the road, and it just needed a little love and care. That was my job last night. After a lot of sanding, neck-craning, and inhaling paint fumes, I could not be happier with the way it turned out!
I cannot wait to see the girls faces on Christmas.
{five} Homeland is over for the season {and forever for me if they don't bring Brody back, ahem} and Scandal and Grey's are on break until February. WHAT AM I GOING TO DO WITH MY TIME NOW?!?! Any good shows you can recommend?
Have a great weekend everyone!!

ReplyDeleteAnd I'll take a tropical vacation too!
Do you watch Revolution? That's a good show but it builds so you need to start at the beginning! I LOVE those houses for the girls!
