When you invite people over and show them a good time, they don’t want to leave your house.

I want to start.....
1. De-cluttering our apartment (regularly) - because seeing the clutter freaks me out!
2. Wearing a bit more make-up - I hardly wear any, maybe I’ll feel pretty!
3. Being less wasteful with money - because I don’t have any.
4. Exercising more - because then I can eat more cake!
5. Letting go a bit more - because I can't actually control everything and trying to is just stressful…
6. Being less selfish in general- because sometimes I forget that the world doesn't actually revolve around me
7. Learning to shut up sometimes - because I am guilty of talking too much and listening too little at times
8. Getting to work on time - because I seem to be late a lot

I am always broke…

I’m not really sure why either? I try to save money… boy do I try!

There is just never enough to go around. Do you have any money saving tips? Or are you rich and want to donate me money?

Heels and I do not mix well.

I love ‘em, but they don’t seem to like me very much. On Friday, B and I went to a dinner party for a family friend of ours; I wanted to look nice, so I slipped on these pretty red heels that I have. They went lovely with this floral print dress I have, so as I got ready I warmed myself up, by walking around the apartment with them on and the felt fine, as they always do. We took off to the party and as soon as we made our way up the steps the restaurant, I could feel the pain.

Sitting in the pool while getting drunk isn’t the best idea…

Sea food is the best when you go to places by the beach.

Kids are really funny and say the funniest things.

I still need summer outfits!

I should get pedicures more often.

Drinking beer won't cool you off, but when you're drunk the heat doesn't bother you as much!!

Sofa for one please!

B's brother has been staying with us, and although I love him to bits, it's always a little weird having a house guest. I had to remind myself not to do things I would normally do. Like wear a bathrobe after getting out the shower and not just walk around in a towel. Or to make sure that I have all the items I need when changing versus walking around the place looking for my shirt... while in a bra.


Now that the funeral has passed, most of the visitors are heading back home and B's brother (The European) can once again sleep in his room. B had to leave his keys and remote to the garage door to The European this morning so that he could get out once he woke up and he will leave them at their Mama's house. B will stop by after work and pick up his ish.


(I'm sure this will happen) I hope he eats dinner at his Mama's tonight. I am so pooped! We have been running all over and now I just want to melt into the sofa. If B eats at his Mama's I can heat up a Cup-o-Noodle and channel surf.


Another thing, I haven't been to my Mama's house. I stop by after work (sometimes) to say Hello and visit with the kiddies. Since they are on summer vacation, we go swimming or get ice cream, then on the Friday nights, we rent movies.

Today I am just completely void of any and all energy. B’s grandfather’s funeral was today and aside from having from to go into work this morning I was driving around the valley trying to get from point A to point Z.

Work has been such a drag, and I feel like someone has been playing mind tricks with us. It really seems like someone has done something with the clocks. There is no way that time moves this slowly. I mean when I am off work, I blink and an hour passes!Speaking of being off, I can already tell that it’s going to be a crazy weekend.

B asked his niece and nephew to come over and spend the weekend with us. Don’t get me wrong, they are sweet kids, but in small doses. They do not have any kind of discipline, so when we have them it’s like trying to tame a wild horse. Not pretty picture.
