This has literally been the longest week of my life due to the fact that I have had heart issues and therefore I have been basically confined to my house. Tuesday during the day at work is when it started and the only way I can really describe it is that I was have an adrenaline rush while sitting or standing. I was completely calm as this was happening. I finally went to the doctor on Wednesday and they did all sorts of blood work and an EKG. Everything seemed fine to them at least but I knew something just wasn't right. I stayed home Thursday and tried to go to work on Friday morning but that was a fail. My parents ended up taking me to the doctor only for them to tell me it wasn't completely uncommon for young adults to have racing hearts but that I still needed to keep my cardiology appointment on Monday... yayy. They are suppose to be putting a holter monitor on me for the next week and a half.
Because of all this I've had the pleasure of strengthening my relationship with my couch, not exactly the plans I had in mind for this weekend but Andrew and my parents have been really great about it! He's come over and laid around with me which is really sweet of him, luckily football was on haha. He ran me to Walmart so that I could purchase Sleeping Beauty the Diamond Edition (I purchase the new one every time Disney comes out with a new version, the Disney side is showing now.)
My parents also took Andrew and I, along with Ethan and his girlfriend to dinner and movie a last night. Dinner was good the movie on the other hand not so much. We decided to see Gone Girl. This just happened to be one of the most awkward things we could have picked. There was way too much sex in this movie for two couple to be watch it with their parents. Movie altogether was just strange for me anyways. Who comes up with this stuff?
I've also recently purchased the newest cook book from Skinnytase and I cannot wait to try some of the recipes out! I love her food, so good and always low calorie!

I was also able to do one of the many crafts on my list, DIY coasters. I first found the idea on Pinterest of course, where else do you get any ideas nowadays? The coasters that looked the easiest were the DIY Easy Coasters done by 86lemons.
I can honestly say that this had to be one the easiest DIY projects I had ever done! It took less than an hour!
Supplies needed
* I bought three of my rolls at Walmart and one at Target. The original directions only called for one layer of contact paper but I did a plain white piece and then my designed sheet. I had a problem with the cork showing through the white and gray sheet. Gray, blue & plain white from walmart and black is from target!
* I purchased a set of 6 coasters from Amazon for a lot less than anywhere else I looked.
* The circle cutter I also go on Amazon but you can get them any where. Just remember to use to store discount if you go to Hobby Lobby or Michael's.
I won't give step by step directions because I have added the link above but it is about the easiest craft I have ever done and I've done some supposedly "easy" ones.
