Y'all can just thank my extreme procrastination and inability to multitask for the fact that this is going up the DAY BEFORE Valentine's Day. So, lean in close....this is what we're gonna do. Should you be an extreme procrastinator like me (duh. you're my people), then we're taking a note from the husband's playbook. We'll buy the gift, and then PRINT A PHOTO to slip inside a valentine's card. GENIUS.

*laughs crazily, scares the dog
Also, hi, 2018? Why doesn't everything automatically save the moment I type it? Why can't I just think it, and skip typing altogether? Why don't we all have pet panda babies?
Read MoreLet's be honest, y'all. whether you have a valentine, a galentine, or an "I'm single and leave me alone"-entine, vday is a time to treat yo'self. Or at a bare minimum, it's a time to send your significant other a link to this blog, along with
Read MoreSince it's Friday, and we're talking favorites, can I first share what is my UN-favorite of the week?
Of course you can, Sherri! We are hanging on every word!
Having conversations with yourself is just one of the things you can expect following 2 days of children at home, in your face, hanging on your arm, going to the bathroom with you, and just generally giving you no privacy or space. (INSERT MANIC, CRAZY LAUGH HERE.)
Read MoreI know y'all think #bloggerlife is oh so fancy, but let me speak a little bit of truth: I really hate dressing up. I may or may not pray to Jesus daily for old ratty sweatpants with worn out waistbands to become SUPER FETCH.
If I am in my house for more than 2 minutes, I require an elastic waistband. And I have definitely been guilty of wearing sweats when it is absolutely NOT socially appropriate.
Read MoreIt's Friday Favorites guys! And guess what? Since it's my first Friday Faves in 2018, I tried to make it EXTRA AMAZING for y'all.
Unfortunately, I failed to save the extra amazing version, SO you'll have to settle for the mediocre version I typed from memory while cursing sleepy Sherri who forgot to hit the freaking save button.
Read MoreSorry for the little blog break over the last week, guys. I've been under the weather, BECAUSE CHILDREN. Mine apparently don't like to wash their hands, but they DO enjoy coughing in my face. Would you like to know how I self-diagnosed my illness? (Besides the usual way of googling my symptoms, like the doctor that WebMD says I am?)
Read MoreIt's that time of year, y'all. You know what I'm talking about. The one where all of our favorite retailers join together and go, "you know what we should do? Let's slash our prices like 40% on everything good, and make sure our customers are actually as Christmas poor as they could be."
And you know what? I'm here for it.
Read MoreLet's be honest fam, some of you have waited til the last minute to finish your Christmas shopping. And by some of you, I mean myself, and those of you who are my people. Others of you had all your holiday shopping done by November 1st, and to you I say this: can you come organize my life? Pleaseandthankyou.
Read MoreWell, it's here, y'all. It's the most wonderful time of the year. And by that, I mean, it's the time of year where John and I almost get thrown in Target jail for essentially looking sketchy AF, as we complete our annual 30 and 30 Stocking Stuffer Challenge.
In case you missed it last year, here's how it works: Go to your local Target, give each other 30 minutes on the clock and $30 cash, scream GO as loudly as you can (startle some innocent bystanders in the process), and fill the other's Christmas stocking like a freaking boss.
Read MoreIt's Friday favorites, guys. You know what's NOT my Friday favorite? When school closes early because of what is essentially a blizzard to us southerners, and then YOUR POWER IMMEDIATELY GOES OUT. But on the upside, I learned what my kids' Friday favorite is : complaining. And arguing. And complaining some more.
In what is obviously a healthy coping strategy (i.e. escapism), I decided to round up a list of things that have brightened my week, starting with this: everything at Anthropologie is 30% off! And we all know that snow = shopping weather = everything is free. Or something like that.
Let's take a peek at a couple of my other favorites, shall we?
Read MoreSince we are all now poor from Black Friday and Cyber week, I'm gonna encourage you to SHOP MORE. I'm thoughtful that way.
But I did really try to be helpful by throwing out some UNDER $50 gifts. And because they are under $50 they are free.
