How cute is this Tinkerbell ring?! I don’t really wear rings other than my engagement/wedding rings, but I can always appreciate a good piece of Tink jewelry 🙂

Sure enough…

It is SNOWING in Holly Ridge! I’m not sure how I feel about the whole snowing-at-the-beach concept. I was rather enjoying the Indian Summer. Of all the things I miss about northern Virginia, snow was certainly not one of them!

At least I’ve got nowhere to be and can just relax and get cozy ❤ Girls’ night in with my Bean!!

“Winter” Weather Advisory Here in Holly Ridge…

There’s a high of 51 degrees today and supposedly there will be 1-3 inches of snow. HA. I will believe it when I see it! 

In other news, I started taking Pure Barre classes in Wilmington 2-3 times per week, and while it’s not as fun or as active as a dance class, it’s still pretty awesome. The first place I’m noticing results is my abs!! Pretty exciting! Most of the moves can be done at home too, so I plan on incorporating them into home work outs, for those days when I am particularly motivated.

I’m not sure how long I will continue to pay for classes though. They are SO overpriced, and I’d still prefer to find a fun pole class or something. I can let off more steam when I move it n’ shake it, rather than do isolated tiny muscle movements over and over for an hour 🙂

Super Annoyed!

Can a pharmacy just switch out your medication without telling you?? I get home and open my refill of birth control and it’s a totally different brand. I looked it up and apparently there was indeed a switch (to something “cheaper”), and lots of patients were taken by surprise. Even more annoying, the replacement gets terrible reviews, almost across the board…

I was very happy with my pill and don’t want to change it. Switching birth control pills is no walk in the park. Grrr. 

One of my medically-inclined friends came to visit this past weekend, and while we discussed my darling Annie’s chubs, she noted a very interesting possibility that I had never considered: did Annie maybe have kittens before?

The thought of Annie with kittens blew me away! I adopted her as an adult cat, and she was already spayed – so I never entertained the idea. But my friend said the way her tummy looked indicated she may have been pregnant at one point, and since I know nothing about her pre-adoption days, it is certainly possible! She may have been spayed later, or by the shelter.

Now, I just look at my little cublet with this new found awe. Thinking of her as a mama cat just melts my little heart!
