The Hit List : My 300th Post

300. A much hyped movie I’ve never seen and also the number of posts on Dream in Lace. I can hardly believe my fingers have pushed out 300 posts! That just goes to show how much fun I have putting things together for this blog 😉 Thank you for being a part of this journey. When I think about the next 300 posts I get very excited. It’s going to be a glorious ride!

Also, it’s the weekend! Yay! How was your week? Mine was good! And, for the first time in what feels like forever, I didn’t come limping into the weekend exhausted and burnt out. I’ve learned it’s so important to take time for myself through the week to ease the build up of stress. Music, yoga and bubble baths. My triple-threat to fend off suckiness! If you don’t take time for you things can get way out of hand. Blech!

If you’re like me, you become extremely paranoid about the expiration date. So much so, that this paranoia will affect my thinking when consuming a Greek yogurt one day past its expiration date and swear it tastes funky. This paranoia I’ve known for a long time is completely ridiculous, and yet I abide by it. Then I read this and I think ‘Huh!’ So, you mean…there’s no real scientific evidence of just when my may potato chips will go bad? (As if I could ever leave them hanging around longer than a few days – let alone past expiration!)

As if we didn’t love Netflix already, now they are throwing out pranks to their subscribers. To boot, Netflix announced this week they’ll be getting Mean Girls…which only adds to their awesomeness. Netflix is #winning

Being a bridesmaid is a true test of a relationship. It can cost a fortune – both in money and in time! So this link was especially awesome because it speaks the hard honest truth that we’re all thinking, but feel bad saying (or at least me). Basically, I don’t wan to be your bridesmaid…and here’s why!
