eye candy

1. whenever i see 30 seconds to mars on vh1, i have to stop and watch. he's just so pretty.

2. and it was nice having such great eye candy while watching my so called life.

3. today went by fast. i drove to our next "big" city to get mike some krispy kreme donuts so i can make him his birthday "cake" tomorrow. and to return my jeans. need thinner thighs.*

4. yup, he's turning 34. he's old.

5. and i worked on the craft room and got all my photos out getting them into photo albums.

6. pizza challenge with our local radio show will be this friday. hopefully i can get everything set up and ready to go and its a hit!

7. no more news on moving yet. mike needs to get an interview with the person hiring down there etc... the only downfall is that they might need him now but he can't leave his current position till the final sale since he is the boss. [june/july]

8. everyone is going on spring break except for us! so not fair. unhappy face and arms are crossed!

9. oh! and i'm doing much better on my giving up red meat for 40 days. i even got the vegetarian beans on my chipotle burrito today!

10. as you all know i'm a "little" obsessed with pinterest. i like to check out the fitness photos to see if there are any fitness blogs to read. it really scares me when i find 17/18 year old girls blogging that they are dying to be model thin!

*i know i complain about my weight. i'm trying to eat less and move more. there's a difference here people. i'm in my 30's and i do not wish to be bone thin, just less flabby.

your toy portrait

i know i've posted about them before but i can't help but love your toy portrait. this little guy is the cutest thing ever. i still need to get hamilton's much loved bunny done before he graduates this year!

weekend update

face painting at kaylee's school 'zaar

1. of course i forgot to take an after photo.

2. i failed on giving up red meat. at kaylee's school 'zaar they had this pretty famous hot dog stand there and i couldn't resist. it had bacon on it + other veggies.

3. but i did good today eating salads for lunch and dinner. [we had mike's parents over for lunch. made lasagna, olive cheese bread and salad]

4. mike + kaylee went up to laporte on saturday. i dropped them off and went outlet shopping.

5. came back home and had the whole house to myself so i watched valentine's day. [missed the first 30 mins]

6. ham came home early friday[midnight!] and 11pm last night. i don't know why and i don't care. i got to go bed at a decent time!

7. he's been playing x-box live today and its SO funny hearing him get so mad at it! i chuckle every time.

8. kaylee's been under the weather. no fever thank goodness but just yucky feeling. she woke up a few hours ago not sure where she was.

9. i did the same thing last night. i woke up all freaked out because kaylee wasn't in bed with me. i kept thinking why didn't her school call me when i didn't get her off the bus?? [and i mean total freak out!]

10. with everything going on in the world, i'm really worried. is this the beginning of the end i hear so much about?

friday at last

not only do i love but i want this ikea rug

1. i've seen it used in various blogs and i just love the colors and design.

2. i want to buy it before we move and decorate a room around it.

3. i know i shouldn't be getting all excited about our potential move because there is a slight chance it won't happen.

4. but i'm excited as hell! its a fresh start, its getting away from my parents who favorites my brothers, its a new adventure in a new place.

5. mike offended kaylee this morning when he said she's worse than a boy because she farts a lot.

6. i told her that if we weren't suppose to fart then we wouldn't have fart holes.

7. mike said something else and she said "you're a fart hole". and being immature, i laughed hysterically.

8. tomorrow mike and kaylee are headed up to laporte for the whole day.

9. only 4 and half hours till i get to go to bed.

10. i've decided to do a lent thing and not eat red meat for 40 days. [of course mike gets a meatball pepperoni sandwich at lunch and it smelled delicious!]

will it be houston?

best pantry ever!

1. while i dream for a pantry like emersonmade's, i love and can do the glass jar organizational thing.

2. the lady helping mike find a job within the company found us one in houston which is what we wanted!

3. now it just depends on if mike is the right fit for the job. fingers crossed he is!

4. my only worry is selling this house. mike's work can buy it from us but will they give us enough for it?

5. i've been looking for houses on-line in houston just to see what they're like. [we want to move to an area called the woodlands]

6. lesson i've learned from buying our current house: buy one with a pool.

7. for no added value when selling, pools are expensive to put in.

8. little nugget is feeling better today but i kept her home just in case there were some lingering bugs.

9. and of course once i got my mind set on walking/running outside, the weather turns cold and gray.

10. did you know bath towels weigh 2 lbs? weighed myself with just a towel on and then without. 2lbs- that was my goal for the week! hee hee!

dilemma's, nerd herds and nerves

this outfit is SO me!

1. i bought two pairs of jeans yesterday.

2. i'm debating on taking them back. only because i want to tone up and wonder if they will still fit me. [the other factor is that they were a bit pricey]

3. mike came home to grab his laptop and brought me a peppermint hot chocolate.

4. little nugget is home with a fever.

5. my car is in the shop. [continued work from last week]

6. i stayed up late to watch teen mom's 2 and my life as liz.

7. i can't help it. i feel a connection with the mom's even though i was 20 when i got pregnant and i love liz's nerd herd.

8. mike said that the person helping him find a job within his company has an opportunity for us.

9. waiting till 10AM since they are 2 hours behind us.

10. excited and nervous at the same time!

famous in my own mind

kaylee and her nana taken by kaylee

1. exciting stuff happened this morning. mike texted me that a local radio show was talking about the tv show man vs. food and how they wanted to do a challenge too.

2. so i called them up [i might have even been on the radio]and offered them a pizza pie challenge.

3. this will be happening sometime next week. SO EXCITING!

4. not only did they say MY name on the air a few times but hotbox too!

5. we do not know where we're moving too yet.

6. but some places we could move too is africa, korea, scotland, egpyt, colorado, new mexico and canada to name a few. [mike requested anyplace thats family friendly]

7. or we could just end up staying right where we are. [he would travel back and forth for months at a time or be working for the new company]

8. the sickies are going around kaylee's class. i think she might be coming down with it. [she fell asleep right away and was ready for bed by 7:30]

9. i deleted about 3 pages with 50+ blogs on them the other day. i have less than 100 that i read but not every day. my taste have changed and some just no longer interest me.

10. i went clothes shopping today. i am so weak!
