Happy Valentine’s Day!

February 15, 2011

I know, I know…I’ve been MIA. Things have been insanely busy, between work, looking for more work, therapy and just LIFE.
But I did want to just pop in to say hello and Happy Valentine’s Day! So….
Happy Valentine’s Day!

A war wages in my house

February 2, 2011

A couple of months ago, I found a great blanket at Big Lots (don’t judge :P). It was large, perfect for cuddling in….it was purple, one of my favorite colors….and it was ridiculously soft…like, so soft it didn’t seem real.
Oh baby….heaven, heaven, HEAVEN. I adored it and I needed it. It was $20, which I [...]

I’m one of THOSE people

January 26, 2011

Awhile back, I discovered something awesome.
MESSAGE BOARDS.
I have found one in particular that is just amazing. It’s comprised of women from all over the place. We even currently have a lady serving our country overseas (thanks, K!! You are amazing and we love you)! When bad times happen, we have people friends to share that heartache [...]

Ahhh, good intentions

January 24, 2011

I decided to take apart my small Dirt Devil vacuum cleaner. I use it every night and it tends to get dirty.
So I proceed to take it apart to give it a nice, deep clean. The darn thing has 13 screws. AWESOMESAUCE. It took forever to get it apart! But I do, and I clean [...]

My favorite time of day

January 23, 2011

I adore the evening. It’s quiet. My husband and I are feeling pleasantly full from a delicious supper I cooked. I love when he comes in and tells me how it smells so good and he can’t wait to taste it.
Now that supper is just a memory…although, there is some leftover ham.
Anyway. The dishes [...]

Today, my friends, was intense

January 22, 2011

I had another therapy appointment. It started out pretty easy….how was your week….anything you want to talk about….you had a break through again…that’s awesome.
Then it got hard.
Really really hard.
And I cried.
A lot.
We talked about my Dad.
I had not realized that I have a ton of anger issues about him. I mean, I am really really [...]

I’m always “on”.

January 18, 2011

I’m constantly on for people. It’s like being an actor on the stage. I’m not really supposed to let people know that I hurt.
It’s exhausting. And sometimes I feel like I need someone to save me from myself. I hate when I have these nights where I’m left alone with my own thoughts. I hate [...]

If it looks like an ice cream sandwich…

January 13, 2011

…and it smells like an ice cream sandwich, then it must be….
Probably not an ice cream sandwich, apparently.
Remember that lose-weight-because-I’m-too-fat resolution? Well, I bought Weight Watcher’s ice cream sandwiches…they were okay, I guess. I’ll finish the box.
But that was NOT an ice cream sandwich.
I’m not even sure that was ice cream.
I wasn’t too sure on [...]

Eat your vegetables!

January 12, 2011

I hear from a lot of people, especially at the new year, that they want to get healthier and eat their veggies.
But then I also hear how much work it is and how when they walk to the fridge, it’s “too much work” to prepare them.
There really is a simple fix, and I’ll let you [...]

I think I had a small break through :)

January 8, 2011

My life is set by all my routines…even coffee has a routine. That’s sad. I have a routine for COFFEE? Seriously? Ugh. I wander around the store for about 15 minutes, trying to figure out what to do. I’m so sad….my coffee routine is seriously damaged. I even have to put in the sugar before the creamer…and they don’t have my flavor.
