Look At What I Did!

Hello lovelies! I hope you all had a fantabulous weekend and did lots of exciting things! I know I sure as hell didn't. I worked. Like always! But, before work I got an email from Tiff over at Life With The Little Man saying that she had nominated myself for an award! Isn't that just the best! She's super sweet =)

She nominated me for the Liebster Award. Here's what it's all about


  • Each person awarded must post 11 facts about themselves
  • They must answer the 11 questions the nominator has set for them.
  • They must then create 11 more questions to ask bloggers they have nominated.
  • They pick 5 bloggers to nominate who have under 200 followers.
  • Tell the lucky bloggers
  • There are no tag backs! 

11 Things About Me
 OK, this is going to be really hard because I think I just had a post with things about me. Let's see what I can come up with now.

- I have 4 tattoos with plans on getting at least 1 more

- I have my lip and tongue pierced. I used to have my bellybutton done but from the first day to the next year                   it seemed to be infected. So I took it out. 

- I love animals. Love love love. I would own them all if I could.

- I love babies too. They're so super sweet and cuddly and when they make a drug that makes them stay babies I will have more. Until then my uterus is closed for business.

- If I go to long without drinking some water I get really cranky and my body acts weird. Weird right?

- Snuggling into a made bed is one of my favorite things ever. Unfortunately for me, my bed is hidden underneath all kinda shiz right now. 

- My bedroom can be messy but small places such as under the bed, the glove compartment in my car....and such have to be clean.

- My nails and hair grow super super fast. I hate it. It's a lot of upkeep and money for my hair.

- I support Taco Bell. I mean, I'm the reason the one in my hometown is open. 

- Procrastination is my best friend. 

- I love blankets. I have way too many and can't seem to throw any away.

- This list was hard. Blah.

If I Were A Boy

It's Friday...woot woot.

I would be more excited if I didn't work all weekend but what can ya do!

I'm off ALL of next weekend because it's Maple Leaf! Expect picture overload sometime next week. I'm so excited about it.

I've been pretty productive already. I've done two loads of laundry, put away Teag's clothes, kinda sorta cleaned out my car!, and I don't feel tired. A great start to this weekend. It's also dreary and rainy outside and I kinda sorta love that too.

So far this post is going nowhere. lol. I have a rant that I'd like to go on but I'll save that for Monday. No need to ruin a great day with negativity!

Seriously what is up with all these anonymous comments I've been getting? How do I get that to stop? They aren't rude they're just annoying. Spam comments. That's what they are! Booooo!!!!

I know what I'll do. The other day, Erin at Shades of Grey and a Pinch of Pink posted if I were a boy...I think that I'll join her.

Shades of Gray and a Pinch of Pink

I would be a boob man

Sweats would look hot on me and it would be ok to wear them

I would be messy and hope somebody else would clean it up

I'd never try and fix my girl's problems. I would just hold her and let her vent

I would pee where I wanted because I could

I would never ever ever hock loogies in the shower! 

I'd text back faster

I would buy things for my girl just because

I'd look hot everyday even though I barely try

I would wear Acqua Di Gio 

I'd check out my girlfriend's Pinterest page and see how I should propose

I wouldn't talk about what I do in the bathroom!

Not everything would be a joke or be funny to me.

I would take the trash out without being asked when it's full

I'd send the first good morning text.

What would you do if you were a boy??

GAHHHH Blogger

I know I just posted a post but I have questions that I need answered and I didn't want to wait until tomorrow.

Is anybody else having problems with blogger? Any time I try and look at my follower's blogs from clicking on followers it won't let me. It's starting to piss me off. And second, I was trying to edit some stuff and it asked me to sign it. So I click on the google button to sign in and blogger doesn't go anywhere. Any ideas on what's going on? I'm going crazy. Thanks!

Check Out My Pins

OHHHHHH WE'RE HALFWAY THERE!

But seriously, two more days kids. Then we can all party it up and get white-girl wasted and all the fabulousness that comes along with the weekend. Woot woot!

I didn't have a post yesterday...pretty bummer I know. I thought about writing something for you guys but I was so busy doing absolutely nothing that I didn't even pick up the wonderfulness that is my laptop. Yeppers. NOTHING. I watched wedding shows with my momma all day long. Then I went to work. Pretty easy day. And now I feel refreshed and wanna share my life with you guys. Hahaha. But I do really feel refreshed.

I bought some Christmas presents on Monday! Yeah me. They were all for my daughter but regardless...I'm done with her. She got a Nintendo DS, some games for it, a Hello Kitty remote control car, and other fabulous stuff. Stephanie this paragraph is for you. =) Because I didn't hear from you Sunday...lol.

I haven't hooked you up with any of my wonderful pins lately. So that's what's on the agenda today. My Pinterest is getting a makeover. I'm deleting, adding new boards, the whole nine yards. Sometimes I get overwhelmed over there. lol. Here we go!


this goes out to my poor family. When I'm hungry I urge you to stay the hell away or bring me food.
And I don't mean just a little bit hungry...no this only applies when I haven't fed my ass all day
and it's dinner time and nobody will pick what we're going to have
and my stomach feels like it's tightening around the rest of my intestines hungry.
 


If anybody knows the true source of these pants let me know. I want them.
I've yet to hop on the yoga pants train but I need to.
 

Isn't this just the prettiest. I want it.
 
 
I'm going to do this. I think it's pretty neat!
 
 
Yes...I think I'm funny. If you don't, you probably just don't get it.

This is for boyfriend. See he has this monsterous beard that he refuses to trim or even
shave. And our anniversary, his birthday, and Christmas are all
right around the corner.
 
 
I have no life and thought this was hilarious.

Yum.
 
 
I should probably be doing my homework or something. I guess I'll go now.

Yep, that's it. What a fabulous weekend right. lol. If you follow me on instagram you've probably seen some of my pictures from this weekend. If not, here ya go!
 
 
 
 
We had a meeting at work Saturday morning and we got to sample our new wines.
Yep sampling wines at 8 in the morning. Buttt... I had more than a sample. We kept
convincing the gret server serving us our wine we needed more. I was buzzed by the time it was over.
 
 
My new shoes! Remember how I wanted leopard flats...well I got some. They aren't really
the traditional leopard colors but I love them! Now I need to find a shirt to go with.
Soooo pretty!
 
 
And this is what my work looks like. Yep, an Olive Garden. Just thought a picture
would be fun. =)
 
Also on my intstagram I'm doing 31 days of pink. I'm wearing something pink everyday for October
for breast cancer awareness. I won't show you all my pictures but this is one of my favorites.
 
 
I don't do my hair very often but I decided I would that day. I had a side part low ponytail with
a flower. It was a hit with everybody at work so I'm gonna try some more. =)
 
Follow me on instagram!

So anyway... We have some new followers over here and I'm excited that so many people want to read my ramblings. I thought that I'd do some more about me. I found a 30-Day about me list I wanted to do over at Sami's Shenanigans and she had gotten it from here. I was going to post the whole list but I thought I'd keep it a surprise.

T.G.I.F.

Things I'm Grateful For....Friday.
 
I saw this on After Nine to Five  and thought it's a great idea.
 
"Sometimes we forget it’s the little things that matter in life and forget how easy it can be to be happy. So we’re making an effort to ensure that doesn’t happen by listing the things we’re grateful for/appreciate from the previous week every Friday." - After Nine to Five
 
And I haven't had the greatest week so looking back on things I'm grateful for sounded
great. They may be somewhat small or maybe even a bit #firstworld problems...but nonetheless I'm thankful for them.
 
I'm grateful for the boyfriend who is working his ass off so we can move out.
It may not happen soon, but he's trying. He works 6 days a week and
it's really tiresome for him. Sometimes I'm kinda bitchy/grumpy about it, but I make sure to tell
hime thank you.
 
I'm grateful that my daughter has been awesome for me this week. Normally she
likes to act out around me but this week has been great. I love it.
 
I'm grateful for the family who loves me even when I get bratty/upset about silly things that don't
matter to anybody but me. They still try to help me out after my freak out.
 
I'm grateful for my DVR. Yes, yes I am. Otherwise when would I watch Grey's by myself
because I need a good cry?
 
I'm grateful for all you people who read this here craziness. I know sometimes I may seem dramatic
or like a big baby, but I promise I don't mean to. Thank you for the warm caring comments I have
gotten. I appreciate them more than you know even if I don't say awhole bunch.
 
I'm grateful for getting paid every Friday. And it turn, grateful for my job.

 
 
What are you grateful for??
