Soooo.....

Someone asked me the other day what happened to my blog.....nothing!!! I guess I have just been so busy and nothing has really been going on that would seem interesting to any one. lol.
But just for the heck of it

  • I have not bought a single christmas gift yet....well I have bought something but I can't decide if I want to keep it for myself or give it away. But truefully  I don't need it....so maybe I should give it away.
  • I am thankful for three mostly easy night. There is still little reminders that life is precious and every baby is a little miracle and should be love and wanted. And that just because you get pregnant it doesn't promise you a baby, and you should cherish when you are able to bring a healthy baby home
  • This morning I brought home Chick-fil-a for breakfast. Before we had Knox Ellie would come and sit at the table with us, but since we had him she wouldn't come. Well this morning she did. It was great!
  • I have gone through my emails and had to cancel every emailI get from clothing stores, so I will stop talking myself into buying something or no reason just because I have a coupon. You know when you still have clothes in your closet that have tags on them, you have a problem!!
  • Eric is obsessed with the fireplace!! 
  • Last Sunday, after working Saturday, we went to Wicked in ATL. I have wanted to go see this show since my junior year in high school. Well....I was half asleep and we stopped at Wendy's cause I was starving, and apparently chilled out for 30 min. By this time it was 12:30....The show started at 1. And we were 40 min away. Not to mention we had to go through downtown ATL. So by time we got through traffic and parked we were 10 min late. Then we found out we had to walk a block and a half and then got stuck in the middle of a huge gay pride parade and get through a crowd of people and we were 20 min late and missed the first 3 numbers. Honestly I was so tired I really wasn't able to appreciate it. I was so mad at Eric for making us late, but then I felt bad cause I couldn't even enjoy it because I was so tired. But I was glad he was willing to spend the money and taking me. 
I hope everyone has a good weekend!!  Thanks for reading and caring!!


    Fill in the Blank Friday!...On Saturday....again

    Once again I can never be on time for anything. One of these Fridays I may actually do a "Fill in the Blank Friday" on a Friday!



    1.   The most selfless thing I've ever done was     Giving up part of myself for the better of my patient....sounds corny....but when you do what you have to do to take care of someone else and their family instead of taking care of yourself...that to me is selfless. One day I hope I can say being a mom. 

    2.   When it comes to working out    I have to make myself go.But after I leave I feel soo much better about myself!! And it makes me sooo mad cause people say " Why do you need to work out?? Your skinny!!" Cause I dont want to see someone from high school and have them think "she has gained weight". Plus everyone keep telling me its going to catch up with me. I am trying to make sure that happens when I am like.....80.....lol. 

    3.  A woman should always   be classy and have respect for themselves. 

    4. I wish I could   speak multiple languages    and then I'd    travel and be able to understand everything  .

    5.  A best friend is    someone who know matter how long its been, it feels like it was just yesterday. Love you Jenny! (I am the only one that calls her Jenny =))

    6.  I can't get enough of    clothes these days. I am starting to think I might have a problem. But in my defense, about a year ago I gave away half of my closet to someone, and I keep telling myself, and eric, that I just replenishing and adult wardrobe. But its getting bad  .

    7.  This weekend I am   Relaxing and going to church, and sleeping. I just worked three 12 hr shifts in a row....and I have to go back on Monday.....like the normal people of the world....

    Fill and the Blank Friday!!

    Once again I am a day late.....but if you know me really well, you know I am always late!!



    1.   My current obsession is    pintrest.....I could spend all day on that thing. Soo many good ideas

    2.    Friends      make me happy.

    3.  My greatest strength is  I pick up on things really quickly.

    4.    Taking things too seriously   is my greatest weakness.  People tell me all the time that I need to let things go and lighten up. I really wish I could.

    5.  My life is   more then I ever expected it to be. I have gotten everything I have asked for and more. There is really only one thing missing and since I am preventing that thing right now....well then I really can't complain can I. 

    6.  In high school I was     friends with everyone. Cool kids, band geeks, regular geeks, drama kids, chorus kids, goth kids, art kids, football players, bible huggers, cheerleaders, soccer players. And if I wanted to do something, I put myself out there and did it. I may have been known as "the white girl on color guard" (and yes, i was called that regularly) but I owned it.

    7.  When I'm super tired   delirious and whiny!! I can't think straight, I can't walk straight....it's bad...

    Poor Knox poo!!!

    Knox got neutered Tuesday.....I feel so bad for him. But personally I can't stand to look at a all of that....and I didn't want him to have the deflated balloon coin purse look. Its just gross. I dropped him off that morning, poor baby, he will go with anyone. He just thought he was going to play. He left going to the  back tail wagging and everything.
    When Eric brought him home he was still wagging his tail.....with his poor cone on....

    He was still happy. He wanted to play and eat just like normal. Like nothing had happened. He did not, however, care for the collar. He wanted it off. But he was still smiling, and that made me feel better.
    He did give me this look today. Like "Mom can you PLLLEEAASSSEE take me out of this thing"??? Poor baby....

    So I gave his a chewy. He tried chewing on a bone he has had for around a week but that wasn't working out so well. But he did like the chewy. 
    Now we just have to spend 2 weeks in this collar....that has to stink.

    Fill in the Blank Friday!!

    I know its Monday.....but we can pretend it's Friday right???


    1.   You should always take time to   live your life to the fullest. You never know when it can be taken from you. Seen it happen way too many times in my 23 years.

    2.    Respect and tolerance    make(s) the world a happier place to be.

    3.  I can hardly wait for  our next travel out of the country...where ever it may be  .

    4.    What ever day I can wake up with Eric   is my favorite day of the week. Being that I work night and eric gets up early when tend to not be up together in the mornings. Its a rare treat that I can wake up beside him.

    5.  Something totally dumb and ridiculous that I love is    The Real Housewives of anywhere!! I can't get enough for some reason. 

    6.  If I could, I would  get on a plane and go somewhere every 6 months. I love traveling. Eric hates it!

    7.  I rather like   being nice to everyone, no matter if I really like them or not. I admire people who are like that, and in some cases I can. But in others cases I just can't hide how I feel.

    Someone like you....

    I am sure everyone has heard Adele's song "Some one like you". It reminds me of every single guy that I wasn't good enough for. There were a few. Funny how things turn out though, cause I am more accomplished them any of them, including the one who told me I would never get into nursing school cause I wasn't smart enough....yeah....true story. I am the only one out of all of them with a  college degree, a career and a marriage.  God could not have blessed me more then to point me to the one who would love me for exactly who I am. Enjoy. Here!

    Thoughts for this week....

    This week has been really chill. I am off work (again) for about 9 days.....it just kinda worked out that way.  It was good though cause my house was screaming to get cleaned....it was bad. Put it this way. It took me ALL day to clean it. I even skipped going to the gym. I considered cleaning my whole house as a full body work out. Other thoughts for this week.

    • Sometimes I wonder why I clean up in the first place cause the next day you can't even tell its clean....and we have no children to mess it up....just us.
    • If there is one thing I have to fuss about in this house it the kitchen floors....they are white, my dog is brown. He brings in grass and other paraphernalia. Therefore I have given up on making them look clean. But other then that......I love this house =)
    • They took Ellen off at 10 am and put at 5pm in Oprah's old spot. This totally screws up my whole morning routine.....
    • There is a house down the street that already has their fall stuff out. You can tell they are going to be the ones that have their Christmas stuff out on November 1st and leave it up till Easter....Maybe its just me.....but its just too early. Its probably just me....
    • I am ready to go the beach....its only a weekend....but I will take it. 
    • Just a tid bit of info.....Eric....for some reason.....puts the groceries he buys away in the bag.....yes the bag. You know the plastic one they put your stuff in at the store. Instead of taking it out of the bag and putting it away he just puts it away. I have been not saying anything and just fixing it, but last night I cracked and made him come do it himself. He didn't understand the big deal. I am tempted to put all of our groceries away next time in the bags. Soo annoying....
    • Knox currently loves finding every possible thing he is not suppose to have and eating it.....I mean everything. Socks, toilet paper, ribbon, dead frogs, acorns, head phones, money, blankets, shoes, his leash, q-tips, etc. He thinks its funny to drop it when you tell him "no" and when you come to pick it up he grabs it and runs from you. Funny to Knox. No so funny to Mommy. 
    • Eric came home the other day and told me that he genuinely loves his job. I think thats awesome. I think every child deserves a teacher that LOVES their job and also loves their kids and cares about them. I think you are happier when you love what you do. 
    Anyways thanks for listening! I know I am not the most interesting person in the world. I almost stopped this whole blog thing about a month ago cause I thought no one was reading it. Then I had 2 people in the same weekend tell me they love reading it.... I guess I am interesting after all. So thanks. For real.
