Favourite Thing- Rebecca Logan/Dilshad Vadsaria

Happy Friday before a long weekend and happy last day of August! Hope everyone has some fun things planned for the last weekend of summer. I'm headed to the beach and will be spending time with the family. It should be a great weekend, especially since the weather is supposed to be amazing all weekend!

This weeks favourite thing...

My life was made last night when I had a (Twitter) conversation with Rebecca Logan aka Dilshad Vadsaria!

Dilshad played Rebecca Logan on Greek, which is only one of my favourite shows! Rebecca was one of my favourite characters and Dilshad is an amazing actress, so funny, not to mention insanely beautiful!

Hey! It's Ok

Idea taken from Amber at Airing My Dirty Laundry One Sock At A Time

To have the world's most amazing friends. It's great to know that I am so cared for and that my friends are always by my side. I am never alone because of them and I am never without laughs also because of them. 

To be excited that my couch comes today! I ordered it about a month ago and it's been on back order ever since. I'm excited to have some place to sit besides my bed, a folding chair and my patio chair. I'm also looking forward to seeing what colour it is. I ordered it so long ago, I forget.

To have had an ok Ikea shopping experience. I didn't walk away with as much stuff as I had hoped and am still in need of a table. I'm ok with what I have, but Christine (my friend I went shopping with) is kinda stressed that my shopping list is still so long. This was supposed to be fun for us not stressful! I did buy a kitchen cart and a dresser-ish thing, so that's good!

That I have my first high school reunion meeting tonight! This will be my second high school reunion (we do them every 5 years) and I'm looking forward to being involved in the planning again. I loved my time in high school and would go back if I could.

To realize that love isn't always enough. Sometimes you just have to let people go and let them deal with life on their own. You don't stop loving or caring about them...you just need to let them go.

i & i: Life & Summer Bucket List

Technically, we still have a lot of summer left- just under a month. Unofficially, this is the last week of summer, with Labour Day exactly one week from today. Back at the beginning of June, an idea was to make a Summer Bucket List.

This weeks idea? Take the week to cross as many things as possible off your summer bucket list. While I hope everyone had a great summer, I hope that by completing your summer bucket list, you've also had a memorable summer!
