Life Lately 8.2014

Oh man, I always dream of coming to this space and just hitting a post right out of the park. And then life happens and I never make it. I really need to make a schedule so that I post regularly. Yeah right. Anyway, I just thought it's been a minute so I'd update you about my life.

Blake and I are crazy. We got another dog. That makes two puppies under the age of two. At first it wasn't bad. Now I want to scream half of the time. His name is Marley. And he's the softest dog I've ever felt. He's also a big ol' cry baby. It's cute. He's a good dog. Even when he's getting on my nerves. I thought he would be my dog, but he took right to Blake. Like they all do.

My momma celebrated her birthday this month. I think it was perfect. We spent the day shopping with her momma and her aunt. She got to have not one, but two birthday dinners. It was a great day.

I went to the Missouri State Fair. I didn't go for the fair though. I went to see Jake Owen. And that man, he puts on one hell of a show. I love Luke and Keith with all my heart but I'm sure Jake had more energy during his show than I've seen those two have. He's a great performer and now I love him. I definitely want to see him again someday. But back to the fair, I had the most amazing food I think I've ever had. It was cheese on a stick. Pepperjack cheese with corndog breading. OMG I WANT MORE. I had two, I shouldn't have but damn they were good. I'm going back next year just for more cheese on a stick.

Blake, Teagan, my momma, and I all went to the Oklahoma Aquarium. That was a fun experience. I learned that I want an otter. They are just the cutest things! I was all pumped to see the sea turtles, but their exhibit was still in construction. Jellyfish are really cool looking. I've never been to a beach, so this was my first experience with any type of ocean life. I even held a starfish!

Just one more month until I can start wedding planning! I know, I could have started after we were engaged but Blake asked me to wait until October that way he knew it was a year away and it will be time to get serious. I need to go pick out a wedding planner/binder. I have bought a few things though! When I find good deals, I just have to get them.

I think that's all that's been up over here. Besides the typical things like work and what not. Hopefully I can make it back tomorrow. No promises though.

It's Been a While

Since I've linked up with Kathy for some confessions. I can easily bang out a post on Monday and Tuesday but come Wednesday I'm done. Not this week though!

- I hate Sprint. I can't believe I let Blake talk me in to leaving AT&T. It won't happen again. Seriously, my service sucks, they are waaaay expensive, and Blake and I have both had a phone we bought from them just quit working. I know that isn't really their fault, but it just seems fishy to me. I won't be renewing my contract with them when my contract ends. Unfortunately I believe that's a little less than two years away.

this is what a phone call sounds like

- My back has been really sore for the past few days. I went to Urgent Care today  because I couldn't wait to see my doctor on Friday because owww. I apparently have muscle spasms. I mean, what is that? What is going on exactly? I got some drugs. I took one pain pill and everything was fuzzy. I'll stick to the booze. I just want to feel better though.

- I'm gonna get personal for a minute. I feel like a cow. I haven't gained any weight but I just feel terrible. My body is so not where I want it to be. I don't want to have six pack abs or an ass like Kim K's, I just want to feel comfortable in my own skin. Blake bought us an elliptical two weeks ago and I've only used it once. I need the motivation but can't find it. I eat out way way too much. It's embarrassing. But sometimes, my job doesn't have the right schedule to eat healthy home cooked food. I need help. Blahhhh.

- This is so embarrassing....I downloaded the Kim Kardashian Hollywood app. I'm so disappointed in myself. I can't even explain why I did it and now I can't stop playing. Can I get an intervention?

Whoopie knows what's up.

- Thanks to Amanda I decided I had to have the Sephora Summer Stash. When I saw that they had the Stila Eye Shadow Foil in there I knew I had to have. That and the Urban Decay Setting Spray. It was worth every dime. And I bought a deluxe sample size of Better Than Sex that came with an eyeliner because I wanted free shipping. I'm starting to have a makeup problem. I don't even wear makeup that much. But I need all the makeup please. Plus the bag it came in is super sparkly. Love it. Watch for a review - don't get too excited for one. Who knows if it will happen.

Do you have a makeup hoarding problem? Tell me what I need!

Happy Mail

I love mail. I'm more than excited to get anything with my name on it. Even bills. I just love getting mail. 

And then there are packages, if bills make me happy, than imagine how happy I get when I get packages! 

When I saw that Lauren at Pink on the Cheek hosts a swap called The Happy Mail Project I got excited. And then I saw this month's theme....
