Nail art | Pretty Together

I have a busy day ahead of me with a dentist appointment and two meetings, but despite getting little sleep, I am excited to get a lot accomplished today. Besides, what better way to fight the Monday blues than to attack it head on? My ability to be so enthusiastic today is probably directly related to the fact that I had a wonderfully relaxing weekend. Friday night I took time to soak in an epsom bath and went to bed early, while Saturday was spent brunching and wandering book stores with my boyfriend and his two kids, before settling in to watch Lindsay Lohan’s comeback attempt on SNL (she wasn’t that bad). On Sunday morning I managed to sleep in for the first time in months, and then hit up one of my favorite places in Toronto: the Antique Flea Market at St Lawrence Market. Before I run off to tackle my day, here are a few photo’s of my weekend adventures.

I did it again! I’ve been neglectful to this blog, but not out of disinterest or lack of topics, I’ve just been preoccupied with real-life. My boyfriend and I are (still) renovating that basement apartment while simultaneously house-hunting and both of those tasks are proving to be far more difficult than we expected. We also had 2 birthday celebrations for his 5 year old daughter, and enjoyed a visit from his parents who were in town for 5 days from Nova Scotia. So while I try to get things back on track, I thought I would share a bit of what I’ve been up to through the lense of my iphone. See you soon!
