Can we just all sit back and enjoy for a moment that fact that it is Friday. It’s okay I’ll wait. Done. Okay. This weekend will be a busy one for me but I am still looking forward to it.
One. I am excited to be heading over the apartment of Kate from Another Clean Slate this Saturday for her SIP Happens party. Basically a reason to drink a few different brands of wine picked solely for their labels. The best part is I get to finally meet Kate and also Jodi from Jodi Bean’s Blog.
Two. It’s virtual mug time!
Jessica from Wifesicated has a full house of animals, and I am not talking about the 3 boys in the house! Girl has 6 dogs, 5 cats, plus a few other animals. She is also starting a 90 Day Bikini Challenge so check her out!
Danae from Duh Danae looks like a badass but she has a heart of gold. She reconnected with her man after 10 years apart and he put a ring on it and they are now celebrating wedded bliss. She is a connoisseur of Vodka and every month shares a new brand to try out.
Three. I am reading this book right now and 3/4 of the way through. It is a wild goose chase of who done it, with a love connection thrown in the mix.
From Goodreads: He took her life, but left her alive.
Three years ago, reporter Kate Johnson was the first victim—and only survivor—of the Broadcast Butcher. Scarred both physically and psychologically by the brutal serial killer, Kate lives life on the run, knowing that one day, he will find her and finish what he started.
In the pursuit of justice, you sometimes have to step outside the law.
Agent Hayden Reed spends his life chasing monsters. The only way to stay sane is to detach, but the second the Broadcast Butcher case crosses his desk, Hayden knows this is the case that might just cost him his soul. To catch this vicious murderer before he strikes again, Hayden must find Kate and earn her trust. For it’s her darkest secrets that hold the key to stopping this madman once and for all . .
Four. The Awesome Note App is really helping me get organized. It costs $3.99 but totally worth it. The one negative to this app is it does not copy to other devices like other apps do. So if you purchase it on your phone you would have to buy a second copy for your iPad etc. What I love about this is you can have multiple folders and lists within those folders. You can easily transfer items from folder to folder. I set it up to manage my daily to-do lists, weekly to-do, and monthly or soon (things I may need to research or save money for before I can do it) then I have my grocery/shopping lists, and goals lists. *Disregard the Goal Folder I updated it before I saved the image.
Five. A little funny to round out the list. Jim Gaffigan explains why Southerners are so slow. Biscuits with Gravy and Chicken & Waffles might be involved.
What do you have planned for this weekend?
Danae says
So jealous you get to go meet those ladies! Can’t wait to hear about it! Love that mug, I may need to purchase one!
Kerry says
I know, I can’t believe it has taken me this long since we live so close. So glad you like it, it made me think of you!
Brenda @ Chatting Over Chocolate says
Thanks for sharing the awesome note app! Looks like a list maker’s BFF!! Have a beautiful first weekend of Spring, Kerry!
Kerry says
It is so perfect for us list makers! I love how you can move it from one list to another too so you don’t have to keep re-writing your list. Have a great weekend!
Liz @ Fitness Blondie says
That app looks so interesting, thanks for the reccomendation Kerry. I love that it’s on your phone. I am the queen of making lists on paper and forgetting them
Kerry says
Thanks girl! I love it! It is perfect for keeping your lists on the go. Easy to add things on the fly and re-arrange as needed.

Kelli says
That book sounds great, I love a good who done it. I want to buy it and add it to my “to read” pile but I’ve restricted myself from buying more books until I can get out of my reading slump.
Have an awesome time at your sip happens party, sounds like fun!
Kerry says
I got it for free at NetGalley. I totally understand the overwhelming number of to-read books though. It is going to be a blast I am sure! Thank you!
Jessica says
I hope you have a great time at that event. Meeting bloggers in person is so fun!

Kerry says
I love pen and paper but not have a million lists everywhere. I actually put 6 different half crossed off lists into this app last night. I am so looking forward to it. Thank you.

Have a good weekend girl!
Kerry says
You can’t go wrong with wine and bloggy friends!! 🙂 He is hilarious he is on my Pandora and seriously is so funny! Have a great weekend!
Jessica says
Ok, I would love to go to a sip happens party! I feel like I’m on a deserted island out in West Texas with no other bloggers anywhere near me!
Kerry says
I mean wine, nuff said!! Haha! There must be other bloggers near you! 🙁 Is there a Facebook group or something for West Texas bloggers?
Nichole C says
Seriously, how fun does SIP happens, sound?! Have a great weekend!
Kerry says
I am so excited! Good food, good wine, good company! Hope you have a great weekend too!
Linda Sheridan says
Lovely Friday post. Love the wine tasting and getting to actually meet your friends. LOL on the “slow” southerners. I think people who live at the beach are more relaxed and slow moving, too.
Enjoy your weekend. Love SMD’s momma
Kerry says
Thanks! I am so excited to meet them since we have been blogging friends for a long time now. Almost time for me to meet Steph too, countdown begins! I have always felt I belong in the South so it was funny but also amazing at the same time. We Northerners don’t do slow very well but I dream of it! 🙂
Joey says
YAYYYYY for the freaking weekend! That’s so exciting that you get to meet Kate and Jodi!! How fun! I also really love your “mug” section. It’s just too freaking fun! That app sounds like it would be a life saver over here!
Kerry says
It will be so much fun! Thank you, I really like doing it and showing off some really good bloggers. You should check it out I really think it is the most user friendly to-do app out there and I downloaded A LOT!!
SMD @ Life According to Steph says
I’ll have to check out that app.
I love the concept of a SIPs party, I hope you ladies have the most fun!
Kerry says
I love it, and it’s so easy to use. Thank you! I am sure it will be a blast and lots of laughs!
Taryn says
Oh, Jim Gaffigan. He cracks me up.
Kerry says
Isn’t he just so funny?!
Kerry says
He is so funny. Gets me every time!
Jordan says
Love Danae! That book actually sounds really good! Adding it to my “to-read” list on Goodreads!
Kerry says
It is really good! I am almost done and it make you think you know but then keeps you guessing the whole time!
Leeann @ Join the Gossip says
Looks like a fun weekend! Any time alcohol is involved I’m in lol! Enjoy 🙂
Kerry says
It is going to be a jam packed weekend but I am looking forward to it.

Trish says
Jim Gaffigan seriously cracks me up so bad. I instantly like anyone who likes him 🙂
Kerry says
Well then I like you too!! He is so funny, I listen to him on Pandora all the time!
Lauren says
Love that you and Kate are hanging out! And I love Jim Gaffigan! Clearly I am having a low-key weekend if I am catching up on blogs on a Saturday night. It’s lovely 🙂
Kerry says
Haha! I got this when I was at the party so I didn’t get a chance to respond. It was a blast! Jim Gaffigan is so funny, i listen to him on Pandora all the time. Gotta love a relaxing Saturday night, though!
