Hello everyone, and welcome to my Weekly Wishes #16 with The Nectar Collective! Let’s take a look at my wishes from two weeks ago to see if I accomplished them (or not) and then think about my wishes for this coming week. Weekly Wishes is a linkup where you share things you want to get done within the next week and then report on your progress and make more wishes each week, and the cycle keeps repeating itself.
Here are my wishes from last week:
— Start going to bed earlier. The past couple nights I have gone to bed before 11, and I’ve noticed how big of a difference it makes in the mornings for me, so I’ll definitely keep this as a goal of mine in the future.
— Figure out my costume for Halloween. Success! Halloween was such a blast at work this year. My coworkers in my department and I are all big Harry Potter nerds, so naturally we used that as the theme for our costumes and work area. All three of us brought various Halloween/Harry Potter decorations to put around our desks, and people were coming to visit us all day to get a look at everything. We had such a blast dressing up and talking about Harry Potter pretty much all day, so it was definitely a success!
Here is as serious as we could be. My boss was Professor Trelawney, I was Hermoine, and my other coworkers were Ron and Harry. A woman who used to work with us took some pictures for us so we turned her photos into shrunken heads. Yeah, we’re nerds. What up.
Here was our official entry in the NDSU costume contest (my boss was in a meeting and couldn’t join us). No word on the winner of the contest or even if there is a prize involved, but we had a blast so we don’t really care.
Here are my wishes for this week:
— Go through the ginormous pile of magazines on my coffee table. Okay, I know that sounds super lame. Bear with me. I’ve gotten a bunch of free subscriptions to magazines through various sites, so I get a crap ton of magazines every month. I used to go through them to read and cut out inspirational/fun words or phrases at least once a month, but I think it’s been about three months or so since I’ve done that. The pile on my coffee table is quite large now, obviously, so I need to carve some time out this week to get caught up on Cosmo, Allure, Wired and more.
— Get back into my skincare routine. I’ve gotten pretty lazy over the last few weeks about washing my face consistently and using masks/scrubs. I know I feel better and my skin looks better when I exfoliate and use masks about once or twice a week, so I need to get back in the habit of doing that. They really do make a big difference, and it feels so luxurious to pamper yourself at home.
What are your wishes for the coming week?
