Friday Happenings.

What are you lovelies up to this weekend? I'm hoping to take it kind of easy, and possibly start a new sewing project. Tonight is a much needed night out with my best friend and a few others. Beers, good talks and clearing my head will all be accomplished. I'm so tempted to just pack a bag, throw some blankets in the backseat, fill my car up with gas, and head somewhere I've never been. I'm craving change; I need a break from the monotony.

This week has felt like one of the longest in my life. I'll be back tomorrow with tales of a wild, debaucherous night (just kidding... maybe?)

I'll leave you with a beautiful song that's resonating with me today; conjuring up images of running away.



"Love's tame, you can't set it free
Come back and it's meant to be
The story's old, the odds have changed
Return or not, it feels the same

Be still, let the journey bring
Calm winds and a song to sing
Unroll the map and plot the course
Ignore the needle pointing north

Waves crash on a vacant pier
Boats rock on a sea of fear
The tide is high, your hope still floats
Pull the anchor, cut the ropes"


Have a great friday! xo

{weekend recap!}

This past weekend was one of the most enjoyable in a while. Friday, I got out of work hoping for a fun night, and fun I did get! I met up with a coworker for drinks at a local place, Plaza Mexico. Conversation was great, drinks were good, and the outdoor patio made it better considering it was a welcomed warm night. After a drink there, we headed to another local plac, the Burrito Company. More interesting conversation ensued. (Its funny how much time I actually spend at work). After that, I headed to Providence with Lorena. It had been over a month since we've seen each other last, and in that time frame a lot of crazyness had happened. It was nice to catch up and get on each others level. I cant say it was completely normal, but it was getting there. Muldowney's bar in Providence is one of my favorite spots to go out to; the people are always interesting, the bartenders are so funny and always open for conversation, and its just a good time. Some people I vaguely know showed up and from there it was just a hilarious time. Thayer street from there, and then home. Lack of sleep + tequila from my mexican drinks made my saturday morning hell.

Saturday got a lot better once my headache disappeared haha. My Volkswagen has been acting up again (what's new) so I spent some time trying to figure out what's been going on with that, and much to my delight, I did. Afterwards, Gabe and I went for a ride on the motorcycle and for something to eat. We ended the night hanging at his house with his neighbors, then I went home and went to bed nice and early. :]

Sunday was a busy day, running errands and then getting ready to head to a hot rod and motorcycle show in Worcester, MA. What a fun day! It was held at an awesome diner, Ralph's. We took the motorcycle up there with Rogaa and it was just a perfect day to be outdoors. There were so many awesome cars and bikes. We walked around for a while, drank Narragansett, and enjoyed the atmosphere. *being there got me thinking about the connections we make in life. It was an event where I would have never expected to see anybody I know, but surprise! I heard someone shout "Shayna!" and as I turned, I saw one of my coworkers and her husband. Was really a funny thing, maybe ill elaborate more on what I mean about connections, but it was just so random.

Anyway, now its monday, and back to being a slave to the week. Its supposed to rain for the next five days, so I'm hoping to get in lots of cuddle time with Ari and to get a few projects done around the house, including (finally) painting my bedroom walls purple! Now, for photos:
