You may or may not know that I wear glasses. Well let me rephrase that, I am supposed to wear them but, i'm a bad little gal and don't. Lately, I have been trying to wear them more around the house , especially when I am watching tv and being on the computer. In other words I should be wearing them almost 24/7 lol. I have had glasses since I was in 6th grade. My current pair is way overdue for an upgrade, but... that will probably still be a ways off So in the mean time, I will try to wear them more, and do what I can to keep them in good shape! Of course there are other ways that you can take care of your eyes, if you wear glasses or contacts or not! I recently have gotten more into trying to do more for my eyes. I guess it's kind of silly to say but it's kind of like they do a lot for me, so I need to return the favor! A little bit back I got the chance to review some stuff for my eyes, thanks to Optics Laboratory Products! I recieved a tote full of goodies, including … [Read more...]
An office space makes me excited…no really!
Have I mentioned I am planning to turn our extra room (sam's room) into a office? I already have some office-ish things in there like a desk, and such (though, in honesty a chair would really be the most welcome addition!) I am sick of wasting my online time multi tasking when it really isn't multi tasking on some sort of productive level. I am really bad to set out to do a review and get distracted by doing something else in the house (esp. downstairs) or even start watching something on tv, and bam next think you know it's dinner time and I haven't accomplished a thing I set out to do that day! I finally have a printer as well, for the first time in .. um.. years? I am very excited about that addition to my world as well. I see this as a productive thing for me having an little space to simply go to do my work and all that! I am quite excited as well. As far as the printer, now when I see something I want to print out I will be able to do it! I need to figure out which way … [Read more...]
Thanksgiving 2012 :D
*waves* well, I made it to middle of no where virginia and back safely! WOOT WOOT! We made it there and back in about 4 hours and 20minutes both trips. We left here at 6 a/m and left to come back around 4 p/m. I was really excited to go because like I said, I hadn't been since christmas last year. I almost had to have words with my mom from the get go though. I don't know if I have mentioned this before, and even if I have, it is worth mentioning again. I do NOT get along with my dads family very well, with the exception of my Aunt Sandra & Uncle Lonzo and my cousin Parker. And that's because they are similar to my parents and parker is only 4 months older than me. Anyways, for the past few years everytime my moms family has had an event/holiday his annoying brother R and his Mom (and flat out I call her my dads mom. she is NOT my grandma by any of my standards) show up. Well, this go around wasn't any exception to that .. Now think about it. We travel 4 1/2 hours to … [Read more...]
one last post before I travel!
*Waves* I thought I better take a few minutes and write here before I get distracted or am traveling tomorrow and can't. I ended up just getting up at a semi-regular time this morning instead of getting up when David left... I had a scrubbing bubble convention in the kitchen (seriously, did you know they make kitchen foam cleaner?) and washed dishes/dried and put up dishes. Then I vacuumed the living room, sorted clothes, put up some clothes, made the bed, and started tearing through my dressers to find shirts that I think might work for tomorrow. This is the point when David got home (I got up a bit after 10 and he got here a little after 11) I went from looking like a preppy, to an indian, to fat Pocahontas, to a pilgrim. I finally decided either wearing the pink preppy shirt with MAYBE my pink furry boots and def. my white headband with pink flower... OR just a regular appalachian shirt .. Then I proceeded to annihilate my closet searching for a purse. before I got half … [Read more...]
oh the panic sets in. sort of!
*waves* Right now my head is doing that "OMG OMG TRAVELING SOON" tailspin that it likes to do. I don't know why. Simple trip, get up go eat thanksgiving dinner, come back the same day.. However, either way, I have that notion that you can't leave the house in a mess..Anyone else out there like that? I mean ok, my house really isn't that dirty at all.. basically we are talking things like: clean sams box/change his litter/sweep his floor, straighten up the bedroom, find something to wear, change purses, clean up the bathroom, vacuum get laundry done, dishes.. you know basic stuff? nothing that can really be totally done today because i'd have to turn around and redo them tomorrow! I am going to TRY my darndest to get my hair fixed up today IF it ever decides to dry! As far as online stuff.. I would like to get a review up and get that media kit worked on, but honestly i'm kinda like well.. it isn't something that can't wait so... You know honestly I think of the best things … [Read more...]
I am turning into my grandma!
Today has been.. LONG?? I guess would be a good word for it. Like I mentioned before I didn't hit the ground running this morning and I feel like I didn't get enough done today for some reason! I mean I totally did stuff, don't get me wrong but I swear I am such an over achiever.. MEH! Right now David is playing some game he bought on Saturday...Sam is laying on the floor asleep..I am trying to unwind, so I am considering maybe working on putting up some stuff at grits-reviews.. Not sure though..I also considered washing MORE dishes! Seriously, I need to learn to chill! I think the reason I am feeling like this is because I know basically tomorrow is all I have to get things done this week. ...and I know that doing my hair is most def. my main goal for tomorrow..plus like I mentioned early today finding something worth a darn in my closet to wear. Oh, and let us not forget I need to change purses. I had a realization a few weeks ago at the hospital that I am turning into my … [Read more...]
