Fill in the Blank Friday


1.   My current obsession is   pinterest and my google app. I love being able to read everyone's blogs on the go!

2.  Less debt  Little things make me happy.

3.  My greatest strength is being organized when it counts.

4.  Taking on too much because I am an overachiever  is my greatest weakness.

5.  My life is  kind of stressful at times, but I still love it. Every day I know that I have people that love, that I love and that will always be there for me.

6.  In high school I was   a band nerd. BUT in my High School the Marching Band was considered cool. People went to football games to see us, not to see the football team lose, yet again. No joke, they haven't improved, they lost 70 something - 0 the other day. 50 something of that was scored by the other team before half time. Poor guys!

7.  When I'm super tired  I am quite funny. Or at least I think I am :) I get really goofy. OR on the bipolar other side of things, I get really grumpy.

Have a great weekend everyone! I have another busy weekend ahead of me! Gah. I want a day to breath, but I am also having a blast :) I promise a real update is coming soon!

We Want To Know Wednesday!

Photobucket


1. What is the one thing (food or drink) that you MUST have everyday?
2. What is your "go to" food when you don't feel well/need comfort?
3. Is there a dish that you make that people request when they visit your home/a family favorite?
4. What are 3 foods that you have TRIED and do not like and will NEVER eat again?
5. What is one thing that you love to eat that people would think is weird and/or gross?




1. What is the one thing (food or drink) that you MUST have everyday?


      I feel like I need chocolate every day.... BUT I refrain, so I will have to say water. I try to drink more and more. When I am in a health kick, which will need to be coming VERY soon... once my birthday month/trip to Germany is over, I drink only water/powerade.


2. What is your "go to" food when you don't feel well/need comfort?


      When I don't feel well I typically don't eat much. When I need comfort, anything sweet.... I eat my emotions. No good. Oh, and sweet tea always makes me smile.


3. Is there a dish that you make that people request when they visit your home/a family favorite?


      It seems to change... I make something good and then the rest of the family feels the need to copy/take over my dish. Although last Christmas I made this cheese ball that my boyfriend's mom makes and it was a HUGE hit. I barely had 2 bites. I will probably make it again this year.


4. What are 3 foods that you have TRIED and do not like and will NEVER eat again?

      dill pickles - blasphemy... I know
      fish (aside from salmon and tuna) - I am not a huge seafood fan
      Not a food, but a drink, but most wines/champagnes/beer - Give me a fruity drink with an umbrella!


5. What is one thing that you love to eat that people would think is weird and/or gross?

      I am not as weird as I used to be... I went through a phase in High School where my best friend and I would eat mayonnaise sandwiches dipped in syrup... Yuck. How I don't weigh 300 pounds, I don't know. 

I hope everyone enjoyed my answers :) I hope to have a post about my recent doings up soon. Just trying to get things done (i.e. loads and loads of laundry, and trying to figure out what to pack in a CARRY ON for a 10 day trip).

Haven't Disappered

It has been a busy week, which is why I have been missing from the blogosphere. We had a baby shower tonight for our manager, who is due in December. I decided to be overly crafty and have been working on that for quite some time.

Within the next couple of days I plan to post some pictures from that and the So You Think You Can Dance Tour I went to for my birthday :) It has been a fantastic week!

I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend! Promise to update y'all on my life soon!

It's my birthday...

... And I'll cry if I want to!

My back has been hurting lately. Went to the doctor. Nothing they can do other than muscle relaxers and anti inflammatory medicine. It was pretty bearable until last night or earrrrly this morning. It hurts so bad! I won't let it ruin my birthday though!

And while I am not someone that uses bad language... Like ever, just doesn't sound right coming out of me. My best friend posted this on my wall for my birthday. She knows me well!



The reason she posted that is because recently I sent her this:



I then sent her whale texts for the rest of the day! :)

Enjoy your Sunday everyone! I am going to try and get a little more sleep! I am a quarter of a century old today after-all!

Food Truck Friday ... Again

Somehow I delete my post from yesterday. Sadface.

Boyfriend and I spent the day together yesterday and it was awesome.

We started by heading to Atlanta to check out food truck Friday at Atlantic Station.

I'm not sure if y'all have seen The Great American Food Truck Race on The Food Network, but I am obsessed. I found out a couple of months ago that Atlantic Station had them every Friday! I HAD to go!

This is the truck we ate at:



Yumbii Truck

This is the obviously "healthy" thing we ate:



Philly Cheesesteak with cucumber kimchee :) very unique, but delicious!

These are sesame fries:




YUM!

Then we went shopping! I got the cutest outfit from Anne Taylor Loft! We had dinner at Olive Garden and saw The Help. It was amazing!!!

I also ordered this:

It is going to be a great birthday weekend! :)

It's Okay Thursday

Its Ok Thursdays

It's okay...

...to drink to pumpkin spice lattes and/or frappacinos in one day.

...to be just excited about my birthday coming up as I was when I was turning any age as a kid

...that I cannot start my day without reading blogs, but have a hard time writing my own posts. I want more followers, but need to become more committed

...that I am getting a Cannon Rebel T3i this weekend, and to brag a little :)

...to be excited about all of the TV shows starting soon because it is FALL

...to feel like just going to a wedding in 2.5 weeks in a trash bag, because I can't find a flippen dress.

...to be in my pjs by 6pm on a Tuesday night

...to want all of my walls to magically turn to gray with yellow accents in the rooms.

...to celebrate your birthday for an entire month.

It is 3:40 AM...

...and I'm up because I can't stop worrying about my pit bull, Zoe, that felt the need to eat a whole bag of dove dark chocolate. Which was "safely" on my desk.

Yesterday morning I franticly called the vet to ask for their opinion and they said that I should get some benadryl and pepto bismol and give her that. Not to worry about bringing her in unless she was foaming at the mouth or falling over. She seemed fine after that, however, now she seems very restless. So I gave her a third dose of benadryl and a second dose of pepto in hopes to settle her stomach. I hope she is okay!

I'm a sad mommy!

Felt the need to vent.

Creativity Bug

The creativity bug has hit me. I blame it on pinterest. It has been fun though. Working on a few things right now. I painted some pictures today ( well started ). I am working on a baby shower gift.

I need to post pictures. I will be taking so many pictures once I get my new camera!

A day in the life of the biggest blogging slacker

I should be fired. Or well if I got paid I should be. I am not the best at this because I have no central theme to focus on. My everyday life is not the most amusing all the time, but I want to get better! I love the blog atmosphere. I read often, it's the posting I lack at.

I am excited to say I am going to Germany next month to visit my Opa. For my birthday in 2 weeks I am treating myself to a DSLR. Trying to decide which kind! Nikon or Cannon?! hmm

Fingers crossed I get the drive to become more active on here!
