Hello.
Here are five things this week.
1. This mask.
I was never a hair mask kind of person until this moisture mask from Dae -Monsoon Moisture Mask. Now I am obsessed. It is hydrating and works so well. I use it once or twice a week, depending on how dry my hair is from week to week, and I especially like to use it once we get out of the ocean from surfing. I leave it in longer than it suggests and I have absolutely no regrets.
2. This box.
Kiwi Eco Box is one of my favorite things to see come in the mail once a month. This month's box was a hit, as always. My favorite thing in this month's box is the sugar exfoliating cubes by Latika, but I love the cork coasters, as well.
3. These signs.
These road signs from Brownsville, Oregon, we found at a local antique store this week. We have been to several antique stores looking for local vintage things and we were happy to find these. We didn't buy any of them, but we are on the right track in finding some cool things from years ago.
4. This kitty.
Eleven had slipped out into the garage the night before on Wednesday, and I didn't see that she was in there until around 5:00 a.m. the following morning when I went to work out in our home gym. She was happy to see me and I cuddled her a lot. She was dumped out on the streets as a kitten, so anything we can do to help her feel protected from her past, we do it. I hate that she had to spend the night out in the garage, but at least it's heated and she wasn't in the cold night outside.
5. These cards.
It's fun to see that Pokémon cards are still popular. I love that kids, and even adults are into Pokémon. Hopefully, it sticks around for a long time. It's a nice distraction from all of the nonsense in the real world right now.
One last thing:
I stubbled across this post this week when I was doing some research. It caught my attention because it was simple, yet seemed like an important thing to remember. To be completely honest, we tried it out and it works better on tile than carpet. Here is a paragraph from the actual post.
Whenever you travel, pack a rubber door stop and bit of bubble wrap — Nick told me he brought a chunk that was the same size as his suitcase. Both items are cheap and very light and won’t add much weight or take up much space in your luggage.
Then when you turn in for the night, put the stopper under the door, your bubble wrap on the floor in front of it, and rest a little more peacefully. Note that I said this was “foolproof” (because even a fool can do it!) and not burglar-proof. This isn’t going to stop anyone, of course, if they really want to get in; rubber wedges can be fairly effective in blocking the door, but the effectiveness depends on the kind of stopper used (some are made especially for security), the type of flooring it’s placed on (it’ll get much better traction on tile than carpet), and the strength of the intruder. But, it does add an element of surprise to someone’s entrance which may very well stop him in his tracks and even turn him away.
Positive affirmations this week:
Have a nice weekend.
