A Gazillion (ok only 4) Things About Me That Could Annoy You

(Oh those cheekies!) 

1. I have about 5 pairs of socks (if that) and none of them are matching (and yes they are hole-y). Eric comments or laughs about them every time he sees them. I need new socks! Did I really just admit that?

2. I WILL leave dirty dishes in the sink.

3. The toilet paper roll...yeah... EVENTUALLY I'll put the new roll on it.

4. I can be impatient. If I've set my mind to do something... I have to do it right away....or I won't be able to stop thinking about it (whether it be a craft idea or buying a piece of clothing).

Are you guilty of any of these? Or am I the only one? Haha. What is something about you that would annoy me?

(bloggers get free glasses and I'll show you how tomorrow!)

.......................................................................

So almost all of you have never met me in person...except for the few of the Houston bloggers that I met once...in which i need to go to more outings with you ladies!

Anyways...sometimes when I see people on a blog...I create an image in my head of maybe how tall they are or what not. Get what I'm saying?

Well...sometimes I wonder what y'all think I would be like if you met me in person!

Do you think I'm tall? Short? Super talkative?

I am actually a very very quiet person until I get to know you. It takes me a while to warm up...but when I do...I'm just a goofy butt!

My stats...

I am...
5'6"

123 lbs (I have never weighed less than 110 and at that weight I looked sick!) I am looking to get a little more toned like I was during the summer...been slacking at the gym lol)

wear a size 26 in jeans and a small in most shirts.

Shoe size is 8 (eric might beg to differ they are a size 11 but I promise...size 8!)

I have green eyes (aka cat eyes).

Never had braces as a kid but have straight teeth.

I have broad shoulders and a bubble butt...also pretty well endowed up top thanks to my mom! haha

I've been told I have long legs. Others have said I have tree trunks for legs...(yeah thanks)

People always say I look like amanda peet.

So does this give you some perspective of how I would actually size up in person?!?! Did you picture me a little different?!

Vivid Dreams

It's Friday!!

so originally I was told I would not have to work today but they changed their mind and I guess I have to come in until noon. so POed about this.

anyways.

y'all I have the craziest dreams ever!

Do you ever remember your dreams?

Most of the time I do but sometimes I don't. Sometimes...my memories are confused with dreams and I can't remember which is which...that's how vivid they are!

The other night...I guess I was dreaming (I don't remember the dream)...but Eric caught me snapping  my fingers in my sleep and making a bunch of noise. He said the dogs started going crazy!

I do not remember this one at all!

A lot of times...I dream of saving my baby sister Jess. I am constantly screaming out her name.

When I was a kid...I would sleep walk and have conversations in my sleep.

I know that my mom and middle sister, Rachel, have very vivid dreams as well.

How vivid are your dreams?!

I hope y'all have a wonderful Easter weekend!
xoxo

Take a look at these lovely sponsors!

  

 

Biggest hand EVER?! plus a giveaway winner!!!

It is FRIDAY and I'm loving it!!!

Let's jump right in to the giveaway winner for the PoochTags giveaway!

It's Elisabeth from La Vita e Bella!

Congrats...I will email you later today!!

............................................

So remember when I posted this photo on Wednesday?

See my nail polish? It is soooo bright but I love it! It came in my Birchbox for March. Sign up {HERE}

When I first saw this photo...I immediately saw how huge my hand looked (or maybe the weird angle). I do actually have big hands anyway but this made it look even worse!!!

I cannot wear bangles because they won't slip over my hand haha (thanks mom!)!

And then it reminded me of the sitcom...King of Queens.

Do any of you watch that television show?

We are always watching the re-runs!

Do you remember the episode where Kelly and Decon give them a painting but Carrie's hand and arm are humongous?

This is the only photo I could find but it's blurry.

{via}

I feel like that painting right now!!

oh well! I'll just have another glass of wine!


Are y'all as weird as I am?!

happy friday ladies!!

Whats On My Mind Tuesday

Good morning! I completely missed a post yesterday...was so stinking busy!

So.... Whats on my mind today? Just a few things... Nothing too special with some overview of the weekend.

* First and foremost...I must say that E makes a mean pot roast!! He made pot roast, mashed potatoes and gravy, corn and rolls on Sunday! What a feast and it was super delicious. YUMMY!

*Now...I havent given E a hard time lately on here haha...but he is in love with the transformer movies! We bought the third one on Sunday and watched it that night...I think for the past few weeks he had been reminding me of the release date! We have not picked "OUR" song yet for the wedding and I think he secretly wishes it was the transformer movie song!!! Jk!!!

*I am super proud of myself for going to the gym this morn! I told E to start slapping me silly to get me up in the morn. He didn't have to this morning! He gets up at 4:30 to go to work and I am suppose to get up at 4:30 and go to the gym. eek!

*We are going to a Halloween Party in a couple weeks... We need to buy our costumes! E is gonna be the Hulk!!! I'll be some super hero...havent decided yet!

*I can't wait til my new riding boots come in the mail! They should be here Thursday! Yay! (even tho it's still stinking hot outside)

*I splurged and bought some Rock Revival jeans! I LoVE them... They fit so good!

Im sure I forgot some things but my mind is foggy this morn! Forgot my coffee sitting on the kitchen counter

I also wanted to share a couple of things you may or may not know about me :)

*E and I have been together since March 2009!

* I have a HUGE sweet tooth!! The fact that both E and I have a huge sweet tooth is not good...not good at all!! Lol

*I can't wait to have kids! I have the itch SO bad! And I want three!

*I think I'm pretty smart :) but I have so many blonde moments it's not even funny!

*Our pup Chloe is already 3 and a half! I met E when she was almost a year old and I think she loves E more than me haha! She LOVES to lay on him. She can't stand if we are cuddling and she is not in the mix!

*I work for a janitorial company. No I don't clean! (I hate cleaning!) I work in Accounting and HR.

*I am a serious shop-a-holic. But so is E!

* interesting fact about E...he is a computer dork! Yes he builds and maintains websites and all the interworkings of it (computer code...eek!)...I think that's the jist of it...it still confuses me sometimes lol.

Hope I didn't bore you too much!
Have a wonderful day!
