For starters, I got my Yelp Elite badge back!

I lost it last year... my previous relationship was one that held me back from a lot of different things, one of those things being a lot of my goals and things I worked so hard to accomplish. So for me to rebuild my status and to be accepted back into Yelp Elite this year was a huge deal for me! I'm so happy and proud of myself! Now to take back the rest of my previous accomplishments!

I thought that maybe if I did something like this, a weekly recap post every Sunday I could possibly maybe keep my goals in order and be held accountable for them. We'll see!

>> I've been working on posting up some blog posts on my book blog again and I finally gained access to my food blog again after it being locked for about 5 years (yeah, I know)!

>> I have a few video's planned for filming this week as well. I still need to get those videos edited and up.

>> I'm doing it again! I'm being too focused on if my photos look okay that it's starting to bother me! And that is not the purpose of blogging! So stop it Hazel! Stop it!

I actually haven't spent that much time on FFXIV since I've been busy blogging and catching up on Yelp reviews all week... which is where most of my week went --- to catching up on Yelp reviews. I really want to get my Yelp Elite status back! I'm still mad I lost it!

I've been on the search for my Essie Eternal Optimist nail polish (my fav spring shade) but I can't find it! I can't find the jar I had put some of my polishes in and I swear I knew where it was.... so strange! I need to stop moving so much!

I'm still trying to get my ex to get me my Canon S90 camera back... which sucks that he even has it. I swear I hid it from him, he always hated that camera so imagine my disbelief when he said he had it... how?! Ugh.

Almost two weeks until my trip, I need to start gathering information and setting aside the things to pack to make this easier on myself soon. Sigh. I can't believe I'm getting ready to travel again so soon! The thought is tiring but exciting! I don't know how people travel for work so much, I can't imagine how tiring that must be to pack and unpack just to pack again! Then again it might be tiring for me because of my anxiety as well....

Speaking of! My anxiety was kicking my ass all week. The kitchen was wrecked so I went and swept, mopped, did the dishes (that weren't mine) and scrubbed the stove (that I hardly ever use) and I didn't feel the anxiety ease off until about the next day. I don't know why it's so hard to keep my kitchen tidy but it's driving me nuts and definitely giving me a bit of anxiety. The next place I have I'm getting carpet and keeping my kitchen spotless. I CAN NOT handle a messy kitchen it is definitely one of my BIGGEST pet peeves!

My anxiety has calmed down a bit since then, so that's good. I just need to tidy my room and sort my closet a bit more, hopefully before my trip! I also hate coming home to a messy room. I always make sure to clean, tidy and make my bed when I go on vacation. Just weird habits I have.

I loved the flavors that was going on in this one especially with the basil crunchini (think croutons but so much more savory) and the mini tomato breadsticks. I'm a sucker for anything tomato as it is so I already knew I would love this part of the snack but I wasn't prepared for how much! The cheese cashews were my least favorite as it was good but I didn't feel that the cheese + cashews mix really worked well together. This was overall a great snack to hold me over the afternoon!

The Snickerdoodle dip had a thicker Nutella consistency. It had a Cookie Butter taste to it. The cinnamon pretzel sticks were really good. They weren't covered in a cinnamon powder but the pretzel's themselves were flavored cinnamon which was nice. I liked this but I wasn't blown away.

I haven't tried any of their flapjacks yet so I didn't know what to expect besides a gronola bar, since that's what they closely resemble. And I was kinda right. This snack was actually kind of filling. It had a good amount of cocoa in it to satisfy a chocolate craving. However the vanilla flavor was pretty much not there at all. It had a creamy after taste which I assume was the vanilla kicking in. I wasn't a fan of these just because I didn't really like the texture too much and I'm not a huge fan of a lot of chocolate.

I freaking LOVED this! I had put it on top of lemon yogurt but I found myself using the spoon to just eat this from it's container instead. The yogurt coated strawberry pieces were like a nice burst of fruit surprise and the freeze dried pieces? I'm still dreaming about them! They were flavorful and tart, just how I like them! This was so good I slightly regret not ordering more when I made my order last week! Ah well there's always next time!

I've also put myself on a candle buying ban after going on a bit of a spree yesterday. I need to burn and finish 5 candles before I can buy another one. Also I can't buy backups of anything that I know is permanent. I do plan on burning some of my LE ones too just because candles with wax is heavy and I'm moving soon so I want to make this move as easy on me as possible. 

But here are some goodies I found at Wal-Mart yesterday I'm excited about. Glade came out with some new scents and a new collection!

I love the packaging to it! So far Sweet Pea Pear is my favorite on cold sniff but we'll see how it works out when I actually start using them!
