April 13, 2016 at 6:26 pmI’m absolutely loving the camera bag that I got. It’s the only bag I’ve used since I got it… even if I’m not carrying a camera. It has so many pockets! I’m glad I’m no the only one who talks to the animals in my life. 🙂

April 08, 2016 at 8:45 amI love this post! I finally had a successful day packing for my move coming up at the end of the month. I felt like so much was accomplished. Also, I finished the final rounds of editing my book for my Master’s defense! Needless to say, there was a lot that made me happy this week!

Crystal // Dreams, etc.
April 13, 2016 at 6:32 pmIsn’t she cute? She had quite the personality too. I love her!
Let me know when you try out Snapchat. It has a bit of a learning curve, but I love it.

April 08, 2016 at 4:21 pmOh, what kind of camera bag did you get? I’m a bit addicted to most bags, but I really love pretty camera bags. This week we’re having a lot of work done around our house, including workers tearing up and laying new flooring in our front living room, so I’ve been happy thinking about all the relaxing I can do next week.

April 13, 2016 at 6:34 pmI got the Gracie bag from Jo’s Totes. I love it! It has so many pockets! http://www.jototes.com/collections/all/products/gracie-black
It’ll feel so nice to relax after such a productive week!

April 09, 2016 at 12:26 am#3… yess!!! The best kinds of conversations! Especially if it turns into a friendly debate!
Crystal // Dreams, etc.
April 13, 2016 at 6:34 pmYes! That’s always fun. We didn’t this time, but with this book I think it was a good thing. It was more of a business-related book.

April 09, 2016 at 2:29 amI really need to start focusing on the positives and writing them down each week. I can’t wait to see Allegiant! I’m so glad you liked it! Thank you for sharing!
Crystal // Dreams, etc.
April 13, 2016 at 6:35 pmIt always helps me, especially if I’m feeling a little down. 🙂 You’ll have to let me know what you think when you see it. I want to go see it again!

April 09, 2016 at 9:40 amI chat with my pup all the time. I’m convinced he knows exactly what I’m saying 🙂 Awwww <3 that you can bring pups into work–or at least that someone snuck one in the office.
Ooh, any good reading recs to share!? Always looking for good books!
XOXO and enjoy your weekend!
Crystal // Dreams, etc.
April 13, 2016 at 6:38 pmI think my pup knows exactly what I’m saying too. 🙂 We were actually at someone’s house for the meeting, but we have been known to sneak our pups into work, especially during the summer.
What kinds of things do you like to read? Right now I’m reading a YA series called Escape From Furnace with a coworker. It’s by Alexander Gordon Smith and the first book is Lockdown. It’s about a youth prison that’s buried deep within the earth and a thief is framed for murder and put into Furnace (the name of the prison). I’m on the second book, but my coworker is already on the last book of the series and he said that it just gets better and better.

April 14, 2016 at 12:26 pmHi Crystal,
Connecting with animals always makes me my day! Unfortunately, in this phase of my life I don’t have time to take care of an animal but I would love to! April Showers also made me happy this week because the scent of the flowers is more intense when the rain is over!
