Happy #thinkingoutloud Thursday! No idea what I’m going on about? Click here!
1. Lovelies! So here’s the thing. It’s currently 12:23am on Thursday this morning, and I’m literally just sitting down to start writing this post. I haven’t missed a ToL in two hundred and sixteen weeks (!!!), but I’m gonna have to take a pass on this one because all I can really think about at this point is going to sleep, and that doesn’t exactly make for interesting conversation. I hate to do this, and I totally didn’t mean to blow you guys off, but yesterday was my birthday and a group of my friends surprised me with a small party, which filled my heart to the max but really cut back on my computer time. I hope you understand, because sometimes life needs to be lived outside of the computer screen and I fail at being a blogger.
BUT! I couldn’t miss hosting the linkup for you guys, so hopefully I’ll have a bit more time to pop in and see what you’ve been up to. Hugs, kisses, and all that jazz. I’ll see you SOON!
Let’s chat!
No questions! Just tell me whatever randomness comes to mind!

YASSSS “life needs to be lived outside of the computer screen” for sure and that surely does not make you “fail at being a blogger” sweet lady! Glad your friend’s surprised you with a birthday party – well deserving of it!

So I just happened to write in this week’s TOLT about how you have to take time for your loved ones . . . Happy Birthday, Amanda — sounds like it was a good one.

meredith @ cookie chrunicles
I think this is a perfectly good reason to almost skip a post!
