Recently moved from my small home town and trying to figure it all out in a new city... At 24 yrs old, I have an interest in so many different things that I need somewhere to put it all down...
How has it been a week since I posted last?!?! I feel like I post every other day. Maybe I just think about things to post about... Lol. Exciting news of the week is... I'm touring a cosmetology school this week! Yay!!! I wanted to do that in high school and well life happened... I don't know if it's what I want to do for a career but I at least want to check into it all. : ) Also, what's your opinion on this extreme couponing thing? I ADORE grocery and getting stuff for free... AMAZING!!! But I don't think I could be that extreme. Like the stock piles they have and stuff. Kinda crazy. And I've been on a romantic comedy kick here lately but I have an issue... Why do they fill girls' heads with such nonsense??? Guys don't watch you while sleep and wonder what you are thinking... You don't make eye contact from across the room and walk towards each other. Then spend the night laughing around the park fountain... I'm a huge believer of love. I am. Just not that fairytale love that occurs once in 123,894,781,294,357 love stories. I know I sound like a downer about all this... And no, I haven't had some heart-wrenching story about bad love. I just don't think it's fair to build girls up for them to have the once chance. So anyways... I just went to the party store and found a new vodka. CUPCAKE VODKA!!! It's all different types of cake flavors. I want to try the frosting one. Doesn't that just sound like a liquid party... : ) So any holiday plans?!?! I just love summer. So much going on...
MY LIFE IN JULY:
<3 <3 <3 firework shows...
Local Art Festival
I've always heard of it but have never been. YAY!
Virginia Beach
My sister is moving here in less than 2 weeks to attend law school.
I get to go help her unpack everything & I'm hoping I get to see a couple of these sunsets while I'm there. :)
It has finally started storming some here and it's amazing. I love a good every once in a while... So it's the official first day of summer!!! YAY. Has everyone made their "Summer Bucket List"?!?! My mom, aunt, and myself started to do ours tonight and I have decided we need more adult items on the list. Lol. They are all friendly for my brother and young cousins. I think we need a couple wine & whine nights. : ) It's where are drink lots of wine and whine about people who just piss you off sometimes. Good to get those emotions out. So is anyone else completely obsessed with other blogs. It's like bad. I have to limit myself to like a hour a day or I would be on here for 7 hours! So many crafty & funny & different types of people on here. <3 you all! I have been looking into taking on another hobby (as if I didn't have enough). Here are a few I have looked into: Circus School (how fun), Hair School (back-up career/personal obsession), Bartending &/or DJ lessons (awesome party tricks)... What do you guys think? Do I have to just pick one because I really want to do them all... :) More of my randomness... Has anyone ever received a gift that completely melts your heart? Like the item was created for you and only you and the moment you received it, you felt just relieved with life in general?!?! Well I received one of those things this week... From Mama Nancy (my ex's mom but I hate referring to her like that) I got a bracelet. I will have to include a pic to do it justice... :) Made some amazing cookies today. Cowboy Cookies!!! Anyone ever made them? AWESOME. Pure bliss... :) Well that's enough rabble for the evening I suppose... :)
It's been a few days since I last blogged!!! I'm so sorry. The past week has been so busy... It's Zech's last week of school and so it seems like all I have done is running around for him. At 7, he could use an asssitant! : ) My ex's mom surprised me with a journal and stationary set. Yes, we are still close. I'm still close with his whole fmaily. But anyways... I <3 paper products & I was having a bad day so it was great. Also, I found out a close friend is pregnant!!! We are so excited. Her and her boyfriend weren't planning on it but it's a great surprise!!! Babies are always a blessing. So I have had baby fever!!! I have looked up so much baby stuff. It is a total baby overload!!! <3 I was sick last week and that was no fun. Moving to another state my body has had to adjust to a whole list of new allergies. This is kind of a rabbling post I know. I'm sorry... Just lots of random thoughts. A couple days ago I rode my bike 3.5 miles!!! I know that isn't that far but it is for a country girl who just started riding a bike! : ) Speaking of being a southern girl from a small town... I've never been to a Trader Joe's and I HAVE TO GO TO ONE SOON!!! It seems so amazing and looks so yummy. I'm also so obsessed with those feather hair extensions but they are so cruel to the animals. Have you guys been reading the articles on them?!?! BUT... I found some that are cruelty-free and even faux feathers... YAY!!! I will post some links below...
Baby Inspirations of the Week:
I <3 cake pops... I <3 <3 <3 baby shower cake pops!!!
OMG this heat is so much!!! Today and tomorrow is in the upper 90's. That's crazy for here. But it is even hotter in TN so I don't miss that. So I have been seeing all of these cute pics of "Summer To Do" lists. I need to make one asap. Stuff to do in a new town. Stuff to meet people my age. Stuff to do with Zech. The possibilities are endless and I'm excited! What's on your summer to do list?!?! Is anyone going on any big trips? I love travelling. I want to go to Thailand... That sounds fun. :) But I'm sure it is even hotter there. Lol. I have been looking at getting a new phone. I have Verizon & there are just so many options. Every phone I have looked at has so many positives and negatives. The Iphone actually does seem the best and I originally wanted an Android... What to do, what to do... If anyone has any tips, LET ME KNOW!!! ;)
SUMMER TO DO LIST INSPIRATIONS:
Isn't this the cutest?!?! I want Zech to do this...
