KEEP CALM and...

...HAVE A CUPCAKE

***

that is the motto of my next three days.

***

as you can read in my past few posts,

i've been down. real down.

***

this week

has me stressed

& tired & exhausted

[as you can read about towards the bottom of yesterday's post]
***

to have something expecting, something to

look forward to at the end of

this *tornado*of*stress* few days,

i -Amanda- have decided

that Friday be my

day of rest in the form of a

much-needed haircut & a cupcake.

***

the haircut may or may not happen,

but the cupcake...

...my sunshine at the end of the dark damp tunnel...

is a must.

***

i think i've found the perfect spot, too:

[...and there's one in a location i can drive to, i think. Bonus!]

***

so, ya'll,

for my sanity,

and

for posts a bit lighter than i've been posting,

these next few days

will be dedicated to

the motto:

*KEEP CALM and HAVE A CUPCAKE*

and

to

finding my *cupcake love-match*,

the cupcake of my *dreams*.

***

[the concept is so silly, it just might work!]

***

so...

on to some

of the selections

found @ Crumbs

that I'm considering.
