Hey Everyone Well..let me see if I can catch you up on everything since I wrote last! Thursday was my birthday and for some reason this sent me into an unexpected little mini bout of depression. I think I just don't think birthdays are all that great since I got older- they weren't really a big deal when I was a kid, and I have only ever had a few that were any different than "just another day" Anyways, I finally managed to snap out of my funk around 2 pm and my mom came over and picked Marley and Me up and she colored my hair and made me a ribeye dinner :) Friday- lets just say it was a blur. David had some family things going on so he didn't go to work and it really threw me off on getting anything done. Saturday - we had EVERY PLAN to go to church but Davids dad and bro roll up and lets just say they do NOT grasp the concept of visiting for a little while and then going home. They were here literally ALL DAY LONG. I told David he needs to tell them that he is supposed to … [Read more...]

One of those let apartment maintenance bug me days
Hey Everyone Well I am up EARLY this morning because they are supposed to be bringing around those trashy filters for the air thingy but I don't use those, and I just changed anyways so.. plus they are supposed to test the smoke detectors too- which is going to SUCK for my miss Marley - I expect her to either Pee in the floor or hide under the bed :( we have 4 and yeah she doesn't respond well to that kind of thing. I have already taken her out to pee but you know.. if she gets scared... which it is fine if she does I can clean it up with the spot bot! I figure if they take around 5 min per apt they would be around my way about 1030 or so- However, I did see them over here randomly while ago and they did ONE apartment in my block so I am wondering if they are doing random tests or what. You never know around here. I really miss our old Maintenance guy! I just looked out the patio door and the clouds are moving so fast ! It is really pretty but they are grey clouds! We are … [Read more...]
Review: The Spice Lab #ad #sponsored #review #thespicelab
We all know my love for all things salty- I am also fascinated by different types of spices and the like. It goes with this new found "love" I have for cooking. I mean I might not be able to figure out what we are going to have for dinner most days (oh, we are so going to a menu system lol) and I don't like doing a whole lot of in depth cooking, but I do like to try to make new things - just recently I made biscuit bread for the first time ever! One thing with cooking, you have to have not only variety in what you eat or you will get bored, but you also need different spices and whatnot to mix it up. Now, around my house and my parents we generally use sea salt because it packs more of a punch and you don't have to use as much- and it is better for you than regular salt because it is a bit more healthy for you than regular salt and with David having high blood pressure and me eating salty stuff so much it is just a better for us in the long run! Going along with my love for … [Read more...]
So Glad Spring is around the corner!
Hey Everyone Well today is one of those days that has gotten away from me pretty much and I don't know how and I don't have anything to really show for it! I went to bed pretty early last night, slept pretty decently and got up about 930 this morning- 930 is apparently my new 11... I guess I will go with it until the time changes- then we don't know what kind of schedule I might be keeping- but likely one of those early morning everything done by noon ones? :) those are the best! David came home in a really bad mood from work yesterday - he wasn't mad or ill towards me he just wasn't in a good mood. He hasn't been in a good mood in general in about a week so.. I don't know what is up - it could very well be things going on at work bothering him - plus he says he doesn't get enough sleep no matter what it seems- even though I know for a fact he sleeps better than I do! I honestly think he just has restless sleep that equals out to him not feeling rested so.. hopefully things … [Read more...]
OH Monday , why are you so gray?
Hey Everyone Well... I did originally write Friday at some point, but I lost the post because my hostess upgraded and updated our hosting and whatnot and the backup that she had was before I wrote the post. There is a chance I could dig it up via google cache but it wasn't anything really awesome so I don't know if I will bother or not! I think the site went down sometime late friday evening and came back sometime Saturday evening but it is all good because hopefully with these changes things won't be so overloaded. I know that my hostess site and my site kind of take a lot of resources- i mean it is bad for the servers at sometimes but that just means we are getting lots of traffic so I won't complain there either! The weekend is a pretty big blur- I know Saturday Evening we went to eat at my favorite pizza place up the road- of course I didn't eat a lot of pizza I had a salad and tons and tons of wings :) It was SO busy there. I mean if you go in the middle of the day like we … [Read more...]
Things to look forward to at Carowinds this season! #ad #sponsored #iluvcarowinds
This post is written in conjunction with my being a part of the Carowinds Inaugural Carobloggers program where I received 4 gold seasons passes to bring you posts about events, experiences and more! All opinions thoughts and ideas are honest and my own. your results may vary! I absolutely am looking forward to the spring/summer months this year. I mean sure Fall is my favorite time of year but it doesn't last very long and then bam winter seems like it lasts forever. Of course I am not a huge fan of the heat we get here in the south but... there are ways to keep that at bay! I love that the days are longer and that it is still light outside in the evenings when David gets off of work and it seems like there are just more things that you can do! Of course, one of my favorite things to do is go to Carowinds! There are lots of awesome new things coming to Carowinds this season including Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare: 3Z Arena which I wrote about before- basically it is a … [Read more...]
