popcorn anyone? wait...I don't share :)

I love shopping in karyns closet for free.

I love smartfood Cheddar popcorn with a cold beer. don't judge.

I love getting butterfly's when you've met someone new that strikes your fancy.

I love to people watch out my window at work. or should I say stalking...??

I love crawling into bed with nice cold sheets.

I love the occasional day when you wake up and feel pretty.

I love girls nights!

and....I love....love and someday It will find it's way to me...

the twenties...

So i'm beginning to learn that your twenties are full of up's and downs. Good times and Bad times. Loosing friends and making new ones that will last a lifetime. Making mistakes, but growing from them. Learning what truly makes you happy. Knowing that your gut feeling is probably correct. Falling down, and having somebody who is wiser lift you back up with words of encouragement. That your mom and dad actually do know more then you, and will always be there to encourage you when you are down. Most importantly, knowing that as each year passes you grow wiser...

love this.....

packing packing packing, does it end?

so really, who likes moving? anyone? I don't see any hands. Yah, that's what I thought. It sucks!!! :( But it's such a beautiful Apartment Complex with views of the water...so much better then the shoebox I live in now. It has no natural light, it's horrid. Another thing that is freakishly werid, is the fact that when I moved into my apartment a year ago I moved from ONE room. One small bed room. and now I could fill 3 U-Hall trucks with all the stuff I have. Jesus.

One a completly different subject this has been my diet for the past two weeks.

Milk and Honey bread w/country crock butter ( 4 slices daily. i know. it's a sick thing )

Mini Bagel w/cream cheese

Tony's party pizza ( the intire 2 servings )

Cup O'lovley noodles

Chicken salad from next door ( 10%chicken, 50% celery, 30% grapes. 100% amazing. )

another mini bagel w/cream cheese ( cut thick just like i like it ) :)

and this is what's so bizzare. I'm LOOSING weight. Not gaining but loosing. crazyness..

wouldn't it be nice....

To know what to do every time you had a doubt?

To know when to say yes and when to say no thank you.

To know when you are going to fall in love.

To know how to cope when you are lonely.

To feel happy with yourself even when you don't feel pretty.

To always be confident in the most awkward of situations.

To see someone who broke your heart with someone new and lovely.

To not try to please everyone, just yourself.

To feel complete happiness...that lasts forever.

New Hair! :)

Just a Quote...

" I believe everything happens for a reason, people change so you can learn to let go, things go wrong so you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together. "


- Marilyn Monroe

yes, a new post!!

It's the weekend. Again. Woohoo!!! :) So for whatever reason I haven't been posting anything...some days I just can't think of what to write. And it's not like my life has been boring because trust me it hasn't. My car broke down and had to be towed to the shop to get fixed (....$585.00 later mind you....) Thank god for tax returns, thats all I can say. I'm in the process of getting health insurance as well...don't you just love opening a bill for $400 when you where at the doctor for less the 10 min? Yes it's grand. fabulous. nothing i love more. so yes lot's of yucky stuff going on but trying to focus on the good :) Here are a few good things...jeez did I seriously just quote martha stewart? Wow.

1. smuckers uncrustables peanut butter with honey. don't judge. they are heaven.

2. vodka on the rocks, splash soda with a twist. Ahhhhhhh yeeesss :)

3. the fact that i seriously feel skinny for the first time in 2 years. makes me happy.

4. my girlfriends and all the very...fun nights we have shared.

5. and now my mind go's blank, gosh thats sad that I can't think of anymore good things.

6. Oooo, that Jay is letting me pawn off "Dusty the cat" also comes to exorcist and howling freak of nature that howls to the light of the moon?? I don't know what I'm saying now...but she is not going to call my apartment home, anymore. more on that in the future.. :) I'm sure you just can't wait.

xoxo

happy!

soooo today has been good, the last few days have been really good actually. I picked up my kitty dusty a.k.a "shaky tail" shes nuts. but i love her. part of me feels that she is part human or something, she doesn't just sit on your lap and purr, or curl up on the couch, she follows me everywhere. this morning when i was in the shower she sat right on the end of the shower and howled at me all crazy like. I think she is just getting used to her new surroundings....she no longer lives under the stairwell in my ex's garage. also my apartment is feeling much more home like, my mom and dad came to visit me yesterday and brought some more furniture for me....it really feels better now :) better get back to work..... :)

skinny jeans, bring it on!

soooo. kinda crazy but in a few short weeks I've lost a couple more pounds and I'm in my skinny jeans, woohoo!! I think it's a combo of end of a 2 year relationship....and the 3 week sore throat/coughing combo and just feeling like a new me! I'm really thinking positively in these coming months...

also, I still haven't met my little nephew. everybody and I mean everybody else has. so hope to meet him soon!! : )

not to shabby

ok so it's been 2 weeks now that I've been coughing and sick :( *sighs* I seriously sound like a 85 year old man who smokes. oh well. I do have some good news, my sister had her baby!! woohoo, I'm officially an auntie now. makes me happy. So I'm hoping to get to spokane soon to meet the little man. Very exciting, I must say....


On another note, this past week has been very different....but in a good way. Alot of change, currently single after an almost 2 year relationship, but it was the best choice for me. I'm getting out more, meeting new people and experiencing life in a new way : ) I do think I've consumed far to much wine and kettle vodka on the rocks w/ lemon....and beer but hey I'm having a good time....do wish I had more family here though....I want Martini nights with my sister Kerri... :)

my mind is...

ok so sorry for not posting anything for a few days, haven't been where I can use a computer. Life for me right now is a little....tough right now and my mind is in a little bit of a blur. To be blunt about it, so if something inspires me to write I will :) *sigh* being in your twenty's sucks right now!!! Anyway, hope everybody else is doing well :) Cheers!

"What can we get started for you??" :) Sheesh.

Is it just me or are we way to obsessed with " Starbucks " seriously. I can get a gallon of organic milk for under $4 and I just payed $4 for a tall vanilla latte'. Doesn't that seem extremely expensive and crazy?? My other question is can somebody help me with my obsession, I go thru the drive thru on my way to work at least 4 times a week, eeeeek!!! :) I can't get away and need therapy I've decided. Any ideas on how to get my coffee fix?? ( oh, small problemo don't have a coffee maker...hmmmm ) mmmmm, this $4 latte' is way to good......

an apple a day keeps the ole' doc away.....right.

This day started out pretty good, considering i was out last night with a client untill 2:30. am. Really random to go to two bars in one night, and stay out so late but I don't do that very often. Long over due girls night :) Anways, I felt pretty good, went to cotsco (again) and cleaned up a bit, but my throat has been killing me with those lovley sharp knife type pains when you aren't doing anything at all. I just love the feeling when your thinking to yourself " to swallow or not to swallow" is it worth the pain? Whos knows, so long story short I went to the Ole' Doc's office and of course broke out in hives. Don't ask. I get anxious in Dr's office's I don't know why....my blood pressure was 140 or something crazy. As soon as they said they were going to do the "routine swabbing of the deepest part of your throat we like to choke ya routine" I immediately panicked and was trying to be all casual and act as if I wasn't considering bolting for the nearest exit. Would they Notice?? But I didn't, instead I burst into tears when the nurse came at me with that weird tongue stick a.k.a " the choker" and I begged. pleated. I think I even offered her money, I don't know my mind was in a blur I was seeing 3 of her and thought the world was coming to the end. And people call me dramatic? Weird I know. She finally did somehow force the swab down the back of my throat and got the culture or whatever the heck she scraped, and I don't have strep. Thank the good lord God almighty. so just lots of pain meds, ice cream and soft foods for me untill I feel better : )

Jay's asleep in the chair in the living room, snoring softly holding his pepsi. its 6:45pm, love it!! makes me smile : ) Ahhhhhhh anyway Meat loaf is done, better go have some dinner :) Cheers!!

Thank Heaven for Costco ( and sisters!! )

Thanks to my sister, who is " glowing and Preggers", text me about a Ed Hardy T-shirt being on sale at Costco for $27!! Hey that's a great price for those shirts, yes they are a " trend " but soooo cute!!! Mine is turquoise and I just love it, woohoo!! It's a good day after all :)

Take Two

soooo...my blog looks so sad, alone and lonely. not much to look at I know. I'm not so artsy like my other family members. sometimes I look at Kerris blog and seriously think that I have to be adopted because I can't write like that. so you might be asking yourself " why are you attempting to blog?" well, I'll simply answer with " hmmm,I always try something once" really I do. Sushi, fish eggs, raw tuna ( it has another name, I can't spell it oh well ) and I usually end up liking what I try...so Maybe I'll get better at this : )

I'm going to finish my glass of wine and head to the gym to " work out" sometimes I go and walk on the treadmill to feel better. I know I should be pushing myself more but hey, at least I'm there right?

First Time Blogger

Wow, did I actually just create a blog? I think I did, Well then. I'm going to have to play around with this untill I get a hang of how to actually do this! Will be back soon....
