I've been sick and yesterday it seriously kicked my butt! SO instead of going to church I slept pretty much the whole day and just laid in bed.
My husband is amazing, he got up and made me food or got me what I asked for that way I could just stay in bed and rest, which was very helpful. I can't tell you how many times I fell asleep yesterday! It was insane!
Today I'm feeling a little better. My head feels like it ways like 50 pounds, I have a headache, my ears are (or at least feel) plugged up, my body is sore, and I want to do nothing, but lay around in my pj's. But I have to work today and i need to exercise too. Hopefully I can make myself get up and exercise.
Well, that's how I've been. I hope everyone else has been doing better than me! Being sick is NO FUN!
I just watched Bandslam for the first time, not a bad movie. Currently I'm watching DollHouse Second Season Tenth Episode. Hopefully I will finish this Season today After all I'm on the Tenth and there are Thirteen, I'm sure I can do it. Lol.
It's to cold outside to go out, but I've opened a window to help, hopefully, get the sickness out. The cats are really enjoying the window being open, even if it is cold.
Anyways, I'm going to do a few 'necessary' things online and then get off here. Have a great day everyone!
Welcome to my blog. As the title says you'll find a little bit of everything here. You'll hear about my day, God, crafts/DIY, my fashion, and about being a mommy. Enjoy!

The Thought Of A New Car...
Every person wants a new vehicle, that's just the way it is, we are programmed to always want newer, bigger, and better things. So what do we do? We get the vehicle we have now paid off and we start looking for a new vehicle, even if we can't afford it.
We all know that the smartest thing to do is to run your vehicle until it just won't run anymore and then get a new one. After all by that time you could have enough money saved off to either have the new vehicle paid off or to nearly have it paid off, if you're wise with your money.
So the point to saying this was, is both mine and my husbands vehicle are paid off, we're very happy about that and not having to pay a payment means more money! (Which we are also happy about!) But he drives past car dealerships everyday and of course he saw a vehicle he wanted, so yesterday we went and looked at it. Del Real was trying to get more for it than it was worth, it was a Infinity with lots of 'issues'.
But instead of just going home Miles decided to go look at another car lot. So we went to the Frankfort Truck and Car place and they had a nice Crosssfire for a good price. So we test drove the vehicle and talked to Jay about it and got all the info on it and of course he tried selling it to us, which sure we would have loved to have had it and possibly could have done it, but to be safe we said no, not that no stopped him from trying.
Jay kept lowering the price and came up with an GREAT deal, but we still had to turn it down. Jay is great at his job and when the time is right we'll go back and see what they have to offer and probably even deal with him, if he's still there by the time we get the proper money.
Poor Miles really wanted that car, he really wants a newer, nicer vehicle. And who could blame him? We all want nicer things. I can't wait until we can get him a new vehicle.
We'll start a savings account and save up enough money to hopefully just buy the car right then and there, no payments or loans, just buy it. You may say impossible, but trust me it's not. We just have to pay off some other things first, it's always better to pay off other things and/or people before you start another 'loan'

Cleanliness, Laziness, and Pain...
I love that everything is clean right now and that all that needs done is to put away some laundry and to do the dishes :) The joys of getting everything clean! Unfortunately it doesn't last very long. But for while it last I love it.
Today is Thursday and cold, I hate the cold. It's supposed to snow, snow when it's almost April?! Not cool! We had wonderful warm weather yesterday, I mean I was actually sweating, which normally would sound gross and I would hate, but I'd rather sweat than be cold!
I'm having a difficult time getting up and ready, I have no motivation due to the fact that I was up until like 1:30a.m. or 2:00a.m. Miles will probably be home around 3p.m. I still have to do the dishes, clean the kitty box, go to work,... then I get to cook. Fun, fun... NOT!
My head hurts very bad. And my throat has been sore here recently, I've been trying to drink hot tea with honey to help sooth it, but it isn't working. I'm going to have to take Nyquil at night, maybe that'll help me get better, if not.. I have no clue. I believe I'm going to buy some lemon drops to put in my tea. Maybe gargle some salt water.
I'm going to go make myself some more tea, put away the clean dishes, and possibly MAKE myself do the few dishes that are in there, yeah, today is a lazy day.
I miss my husband! I can't wait until he gets home!

A Busy Wednesday
Just like every other Wednesday I had to get up and go to work, but last night I had put rollers in my hair so getting ready took a little bit longer today.
I went to work and after work I came right home and started cleaning.
I started with the dishes, went to washing some laundry, came upstairs and put some clothes away and picked up some clutter, cleaned the kitty box,... Blah blah.
Basically I've been busy since I woke up. I even ate my breakfast standing up. So I'm just now sitting down and relaxing a little. I'm still not done with everything, but time has been going so slow that I NEEDED a break. Lol.
I swept the floors yesterday (except upstairs, so I guess I should do that) I need to still sweep (broom) the kitchen and the office. I may be cooking so that I'd have to do. Also Miles and I will be taking a walk later on :)
Clearly half of the reason I wanted to get up and clean was because I really want to lose weight and the other well not really half, I guess half of that half, was that I wanted to clean like I actually felt like it and then the rest was that I did it for Miles :)
As for the weather, it is beautiful. Nice and warm, a nice breeze.. Great :)

Wii Fit Plus
So since Miles sister took her Wii Fit Plus stuff back Miles agreed to buy the stuff for me. I finally (it hasn't been that long just can't wait until I can use it!) received the Wii Fit Plus Game, now I'm waiting on the Wii Fit Board, we got an off brand that is actually more like a scale, it has the little electronic area that says your weight (SO cool). They said the estimated time to get the board is the 24th, which is way to long! I would like it NOW!
I need to lose this weight pronto! I would like to feel good about me again and that will only start to happen when I don't weigh about 40-50 pounds overweight (Well, maybe it isn't ALL overweight, but more than I want to be). I will be down to a good weight again and I don't care if people don't believe me. Most likely all those people who think they're such big shots/high up and that look down on me for the extra weight/whatever else will probably end up fat anyways, it will always come back to bite you in the butt, in this case you can add the stomach, face, arms, legs, and basically every other part of the body.
I'm trying to learn to be nicer to people, so that I may avoid the payback. Let me explain it's not that I'm trying to be mean or even that I'm necessarily mean, I'm just very shy and that comes off mean sometimes. And I do get angry at people for stupid driving or just stupidness in general (I understand if they have some sort of disorder or whatever, but people just not using their brains makes me mad. So I will call them names such as loser, idiot, stupid, moron,... blah blah. And to be truthful I don't know who that person is or what they're like they could have a disorder and literally be one of the names that I call them, without it being their fault. Maybe they're just having a bad day and God knows if I was having a bad day I would want people to give me a break.
Anyways today is my day off, so I'm going to get off here and enjoy it! Have a great day!!

Scooter's Vet Visit...
So as I believe I already informed you poor Scooter had to get fixed and declawed on Friday. He couldn't eat Thursday night, had to go in at 8:00-8:30 on Friday morning and I was supposed to be able to pick him up on Saturday between 10:00-12:00, well Friday night was the last MusicFest concert and Miles and I went to hear the music and see his friends so we didn't get home until, like 2:30 in the morning, needless to say we were so tired when it came time to wake up, but we got up and since we hadn't received any phone calls from the vet we got ready and headed to pick up Scooter. So we take the 15-20 minute drive to the vets office.
I go up to the desk and say,"Hi, I'm here to pick up Scooter"
She looks at me and says, "I called and left you a message didn't you get it?"
I said,"No, maybe you called my husbands old number?"
She reads off the number.
"Yeah, that's his old number."
"Oh well, we want to keep Scooter another night one paw is still bleeding, but I'll go see if the Dr. will let him go now."
"Okay."
She leaves, comes back. "He'll be in here in just a minute."
"Ok."
He comes in says basically the same thing.
We say,"Ok."
"You can come spend a few minutes with him, if you'd like."
"Ok cool, yeah!"
We follow the Dr. back to the back visit Scooter, pet him, and then we leave. Dr. said he was going to check to see if his paw stopped bleeding at noon, well So instead of getting him Saturday we had to wait until, no not Sunday, but Monday (today) to finally get him back. He's doing good, not complaining. He's sleeping and cleaning a lot, just as my other two cats did. He's walking slow, which is to be expected. I sure did miss him while he was away. It's SO great to have him home.
Today we've had wonderful weather, at around 6:00 this morning it was already around 65 degrees. And it was supposed to get up to like 72 degrees or so. So it's wonderful, I hope it continues to be this warm out!
I'm on the phone so I'm going to go :) Have a fabulous day!

I Don't Feel Good About Me
So to fully make you comprehend what I'm going to say I have to tell you a little about myself from when I was younger. I have 6 siblings (mainly girls), but this first part will only include the youngest of the 6 and those are my step sisters (my dad's wife's kids) (To explain further, technically, I have no full blooded siblings, but 2 of them I count as full blood, but technically they're half blooded)
Anyways, one of the two was about one.. one and a half months older than me and the other is, I think two or three years younger. I was always much thinner than them and I remember even being younger noticing that they had 'rolls' and I did not. Occasionally even they would make a comment on how 'flat' my stomach was, which I was alway quite thankful I was thin. I've never liked fat and could never understand how people could let themselves be fat.
I, up to the age of 16 or 17, weighed between 110-115 pounds, which I was perfectly happy with, but since getting married I gained weight. I'm now 150-160 pounds, which for most people at age 21 that might not be a big deal, but it's not healthy for me and it's overweight.
I've been trying to loose weight. Last year when it was warm I took walks and occasionally did some exercising. We don't have money to waste at some Snap Fitness or YMCA, so when Miles' sister said we could borrow her Wii Fit I was excited, I was exercising and loosing weight (I had started at 160 and made it to 150)
Anyways, after a while of her not mentioning anything about it, I and my husband just assumed she was giving it to us, which I was very thankful for, but a couple of days ago she decided she wanted it back, I'm assuming to give to someone else, which is rude since we'd had it for so long and she hadn't even mentioned it.
My husband and I took a walk today and I was breathing heavy and my back hurt and it just wasn't good, this wasn't happening when I was exercising on the Wii, so I don't know what the difference is, but all I know is I don't feel good about me and my weight and I'm scared that something bad is going to happen if I don't lose the weight soon. So now I'm trying to find a deal on the Wii board and the Wii Fit game, which I've found, now just talking my husband into letting me buy it.
Anyways I've got to get off here. Have a great day. And please pray I lose this extra weight!

Today MusicFest started... St. Patrick's Day is tomorrow!
And I'm currently not having a very motivated day. Hopefully Miles won't mind or just won't notice or ask.
Today the weather is nice, just not as warm as I'd like. It's supposed to be 70 tomorrow, which makes me VERY happy! I really feel like going on a walk, but I'm afraid I'd be a little to cold :/ So I can't decide if I want to ask Miles or not.
Speaking of Miles he should be home here soon, so I'll have to make this blog short. I hope you're having a fabulous day!

Scooter/My Day/Hubby
Poor baby Scoot Scoot on Friday will be going to the vets and will be getting fixed and de-clawed. He won't be able to eat or drink Thursday night. But I'll be able to pick him up on Saturday morning :) He'll need to be babied, which I'm fine with. I just feel sorry for him because he'll be in a lot of pain and he'll be staying the night somewhere different for a night. I know they'll take good care of him though.
Anyways as for my day, since it is Tuesday, it was my day off. I watched The Spy Next Door, I played some Tomb Raider: Guardian Of Light, cleaned the cat box, swept the kitchen floor, swept the office (cat room) floor, soaked the dishes (someone got rid of my gloves so I refuse to wash them until I get some more), took off this junkie looking can opener that came with the house,.... Anyways Miles is home and sleeping next to me on the love-seat. His work day didn't start off to well.
Some looser, who thinks that just because he's been in the Lead Op. position the longest means that he can boss everyone around and thinks everyone else has to be constantly working while he gets to talk and stand around was once again giving my husband a hard time at work. Yelling at him over, I don't even know what. Miles hasn't told me. But we believe it has to do with something racial.
Now I'm NOT racist, but to explain I'll have to use DETAIL (that's all White, Black, Hispanic, and so on are to me, just detail) The other two men in the Lead Op. position are Hispanics and they tend to favor people of their race, which means the people unlike them are pretty much forgotten, ignored, and constantly put down, especially if they are of the same or higher position.
I'm currently of course blogging and watching a movie, Rain, which I have never heard of, but so far it is very good. And Garfield is laying on Miles who is still napping. Lol.
Welp off I go! Have a great rest of the day and thanks for reading! :)

The cheesecake was decorated with of course a 2 and 1 candle and then little umbrellas, and two little plastic green shot glasses Lol. I loved it. Anyways after the cake we all stayed and talked for a while, then we left.
We followed my mom and step-dad into town, and before they turned onto their road they called and asked if we wanted to come over and play cards so we went there and played Phase 10 then home we went.

It's My 21st Birthday!!!!
Today is my 21st birthday! It's amazing that 'just yesterday' I was 16 dreaming of being 18, then I was 18.. and now here I am, 21!
I can say that I've made better choices than most, but I'm still no angel. I made choices I will always regret, but in the end my choices are what brought me to where I am today, good or bad.
I thank God for another year, no matter how old or how young we are we may not get another year, but I have and therefore I am blessed!
Today some family members will being meeting my husband and I at a restaurant, they haven't told me where, but I'm sure it's either Everything O.K. or Exotic Thai (I asked for one of those and either one would be great!)
As per my request and the fact that my mom thought it was cute she's bought some decor that has to do with alcohol and 21st birthdays, though there will be NO drinking (alcoholic beverages that is).
I thank God that my family didn't raise me to waste my life away and my money on alcohol, I always wake up being able to remember what I've done the night before (and if I can't remember it has nothing to do with alcohol, just a bad memory)
Anyways, I need to get up and get ready for MY day. Which will hopefully be AHMAZING!
I hope you all have a fantastic day as well!

Every birthday..
So I found out who all is coming to my birthday party, but not where it is. And well, every birthday has it down falls. I wish my family could be there, my siblings, my dad and step-mom,.... I know that's not possible, plus I don't really do good opening presents and being the center of attention in a 'big' group. Which there's what 2, 2, 2, 2, 4,... so what 12? Which isn't huge, but still makes me uncomfortable. I just have my preferences and... Well, it is what it is. I'll put on my smile and make the best out of it, which I'm sure will be fine. My mom and husband are pretty good at planning things so ... I'm gonna shut up now.
1 More Day!!!!
1 more day!!!! I'm so excited!
I found out yesterday that ME, Miles, my mom, and my step-dad Mike (and maybe more.. not sure) are going to meet and go out to eat, which I'm assuming is at Exotic Thai, due to a joke that had to do with us paying for my mom and Mike's food next time we went out. Lol. They didn't think about that one! As for when I'm not sure. I think they mean tomorrow, but it'd have to be after Miles gets off work. So maybe we'll meet him there? Idk. But I'll plan to be ready!!
I'm a little freaked out, normally Miles sends me a text saying he got to work safely, well I didn't receive a text then. And then he has a first break at 8:30-ish and I didn't receive a text then. So his lunch is coming up in an hour-ish and I'm hoping to receive some kind of text or call or something. I've checked the house and I haven't found his phone here and I've text him 2 or 3 times, so idk.
I'm currently getting ready to eat a few pieces of Totinos pizza :) I'm hungry, clearly.
You know part of me is hoping that Miles is like making calls to set up a 'party' for me, not like full fledged party, just something... small.
Welp, off I go to finish eating and wait for Miles to get a hold of me.
Hope everyone has a great day, despite the crummy sunless weather!

2 More Days!!!
Today is Tuesday aka my day off. The one day where I don't have to go anywhere. No bread job and no motel. Just some dumb old house work and whatever I want to do. Of course, I normally don't do anything fun, just sit at home.
Anyways on today's schedule I'm going to get up and do some dishes, clean the cat box, yada, yada,... but when 1:30p.m. finally gets here and my mom and Mike pick me up I'll be going with them to Mike's 2 hour Dr. appointment, I'm there to keep mom company. SO after 2 hours of being in a hospital we will finally leave so around 4:30 p.m. and go to Don Pablos (or at least that's the plan) and Miles is going to meet us there after he gets off work. (I miss him so much!) So we'll eat then as far as I know mom and Mike will head to their house and Miles and I will head to ours, that is as long as no one decides to go shopping. Lol.
Anyways, I'm off to do my cleaning. I hope everyone has a good day!

3 More Days!!!!
3 more days!!
Today is Monday, and it is still morning time, so I don't really have a lot to tell you on what I've done so far. But if you'd like to know, I have watched 2 movies The Messenger 2 and Post Grad (I'm actually in the middle of watching Post Grad) Oh, and I finished my Chinese from last night.
As for the rest of the day I'll need to do dishes, clean the cat box, go to work (stock bread) and buy a few things from the store like cat litter and probably some other stuff.
Now as it says up above I have 3 more days until the big 2-1 (Sounds so much better with 5-0, but I'm not rushing to get there) I'm very excited! I know for sure that I'll be getting my cheesecake (I've been enjoying my Kindle everyday! Reading When Night Falls) But other than the cake I know NOTHING about what's happening for my birthday. I know Miles has to work and I have to work, but nada besides that.
As for tomorrow I'm going with my mom and Mike (step-dad) to Mike's 2 hour doctors appt., he's having to get a lot of tests done or one really long test, not sure. But I'm going to keep my mom company. Then after that's all over with we're going to meet Miles and get something to eat in Lafayette, then of course (as far as I know) it's home time.
My cats are all being very sleepy, which I can't say I blame them. Here recently it seems like everyday is nothing, but sleepy. Rain, snow.. it does nothing, but make me tired. It definitely doesn't make me happy! Scooter is in his normal place on the back of Miles' chair, Garfield and Lil' Bit are bth on the floor, and as for Rambunctious I have no clue, she's probably hiding upstairs in the guest bedroom.
But I'm going to get back to my movie. I hope everyone has a fabulous day and I seriously hope that we get a lot of sunshine!

4 more days!!
Today is Sunday. I woke up 'jumped' into some clothes, went to stock the bread at Walmart, then I came back and got ready for church. Wen't to church, went to Ponderosa, went to my mom's to help my sister's husband (who ended up not needing help) and then home.
At Ponderosa I saw my dad and my step-mom, Mari. I sat down with them and talked for a few minutes until my mom and Mike got there then I said my goodbyes and went and got some food. The Lambert's unfortunately couldn't be there today due to a wedding, but that's okay.
At church our Pastor preached on "What If?" It was good and the "what if" lead to a lot of good questions. :) And I took my Kindle to church as my bible :)
At my mom's we borrowed their HDMI cord to see if, well, one it would work for what we wanted and two if we liked it. We do.
As for right now Miles is playing a video game and I'm getting ready to get off here and get some water or something to drink, I'm really thirsty!
Hopefully we'll make it to church tonight.
Have a great Sunday and great church services!

5 More Days!!!!
I'm getting super excited, as I believe I've said before. Lol. 5 more days.
Today has been a good day so far, other than my not sleeping very well. I took mine and my husband's tax stuff over to the accountant to have that done and when I got home there was a B-E-A-U-TIFUL package sitting in front of my door.
I took it insided,took a picture of the package, and sent to my husband. He decided to let me open it even, though he wasn't here (he's at work) And what do I find inside this box? Another box, another precious box that totally gave away what was on the inside!!!! My very own Kindle, white and B-E-A-U-TIFUL! I was so excited so to the charger it went and on it came :)
I've been looking through books and adding them to my wish list which the Kindle was also on my wish list :) One down! Let's see what's next!
So that's been my day so far. I have work in a couple of hours and I'm hoping that if there's another gift, which I think there is, that it'll be here before I leave or at least when I get back :)
Have a good day! And I'll keep you posted on my presents!

6 More Days!!!
So as it says above 6 more days! I'm excited.
My mom asked me today what I want for my birthday, so she has something, but she's going to get me more. It's looking like she's going to take me to Burlington Coat Factory so I can pick out some new clothes :)
As for what I'm getting from my husband I'm still clueless and we still haven't received anything through the mail... so idk. (Ug, FedEx just passed :( just another reminder that my gift isn't here!)
Today I had to work at the motel and stock the bread. That all went well. Mike brought me some Everything OK to the motel, which was GREATLY appreciated because I was starving (ok not literally, but I was really hungry!) Work went by at a good pace and there wasn't a ton of bread to put out at the bread job, so that helped out too. Lol.
My hubby just got home! Yay! Gtg!
Have a good rest of the day!

7 More Days!!!!
Yes, yes, only a week left and then I will finally shut up about my birthday, but I do not promise to not talk about my presents :) Which I still don't know what they are and yes, it is still bugging me greatly!
Anyways today is Thursday and yes, my birthday is going to be on a Thursday. I'm having a hard time getting motivated today, but I know I need to get up, clean the cat box out, do the dishes, do some laundry, go to work,... So on.
I've been watching Xena Season 2 which has 22 episodes, I'm trying to skip the ones I've seen so I can get "caught up" not that there are new episodes or anything, but then I can stop wondering what I've missed. Lol.
As yesterday Little Bit and Garfield have been laying next to me on the love-seat. Scooter has been on the back of Miles' recliner and Rambunctious... Well, I think she's hiding upstairs somewhere.
I've been making balloons (since yesterday) as a count down and each day the balloon says how many days are left so today is 7 and so it says 7 DAYS. Lol. I'm sure I'll find a way to upload the pictures from my phone when it's all done.
I guess I'll get up now and to help myself get started I'll take a shower. Then follow up with what needs done.
Have a fabulous day everyone!

About turning 21...
I have made a list of things I want, but before I share that I should inform you of one or two things.
Ok so the first thing is I'm Apostolic Pentecostal. Which leads me to the second thing, which you may have guessed by now, I don't drink (alcoholic beverages) I've had alcohol. I've had wine for communion and anyone who has taken Nyquil or anything like that has had alcohol. Now I don't think that a little bit of alcohol is going to send someone to Hell, but I do believe that you are NEVER to get drunk on alcohol. You want to be "drunk in the Holy Ghost" or be "drunk" due to some natural thing, a natural high due to nice weather or the beauty of God's creation.. Go for it!
So now here is my list or at least the gist of it.
My 21st Birthday
1. Presents
2. Cheesecake
3.Exotic Thai or Everything OK
4. Funny decorations that deal with a normal person's 21st birthday lol
5. I'm going to drink Thai tea from my margarita glass all day (while I'm at home)
6. My husband and I have decided not to buy cards for each other, but since this is a "Big" birthday I want one
7. He has to wear his Burberry Touch cologne because I love it!
Ok, so now you know. I may add more to the list, but so far this is what I've got. This will be sitting in my husband's chair waiting for him when he get's home ;)
Nearly Happy Birthday to ME!
8 More Days!!!!
I still have NO clue what I'm getting for my birthday, from anyone. It's torture!!!! I love surprises, but only when I don't know about them.
I could get on Amazon under my husband's sign in and find out what I'm getting (I assume that's where he got it from) But I'm trying my hardest to just be patient, not something that's easy for me, it's just another virtue that I don't have equipped.
Today, I had an early shift, like every Wednesday. I got up and went to work at 8 a.m. took a little longer than normal to get it all done, but that's ok I'm not in a super big hurry on Wednesday mornings.
After work I came home and made some tea (Sweet Tea) Then I played a little Super Mario.. well Mario World actually lol, it's all the same to me, as long as it has Mario and it's fun. Now I'm watching Xena: Season 2 and getting ready to do some cleaning.
I hate cleaning, but I know it has to be done. I'm sure I won't do the dishes until later on, but I'll sweep the kitchen and the office, clean the cat box, maybe do some laundry,... so on.
*Toasts* To warm weather and a great day for us all!

9 Days Left!!!!
9 days left until my birthday!!!! I'm SOOOO excited!
Today is my day off. For the most of the day I set around and did nothing besides play a game on my laptop and watched Xena on Netflix.
At about 3:30 p.m. I got up took a shower, got dressed, did my hair, got something to eat, and did the dishes. Of course I only did this in preparation for some friends that were coming over at 5:30 p.m. Which they are here right now :)
They're our Pastor and his wife's twin boys, Dillon and Spencer. (We have 2 of their 3 kids over) They haven't been over in a while due to my husband working so much, but we finally were able to set up a day (today) for them to come over. :)
It makes the house not seem so empty when people are here. I love our home and I love my husband, and our pets, but sometimes we need more people here. Keep in mind I don't mean all the time, just once or twice a week for the day or half the day. Like I love when we have people spend the night. So far it's been Steven and Scott that have stayed the night, both of course are friends of my husband, none of my friends have stayed the night and we've almost lived here for a year... but people drift apart and things happen, plus Miles needs human interaction far more than I do. Anyways, people sometimes = good!
Anyways, I'm still hungry even after eating so I'm going to go and find something to fill me up :)
