It's Been Awhile.....

I know, I fail at life sometimes.  Needed a break, gonna be pro active this summer and write more posts and share more recipes, pictures and DIY'S!

reading: I am still on my KA kick, and by KA I mean Kristen Ashley.  She is awesome, like ROCK CHICK awesome.  I wish my life was like one of her novels, cept maybe the dumb girls in it.  Not all are dumb, but most are.  Then again that wouldn't make for drama filled, soap opera'ish reading, now would it?  Check her out, b/c she is fabulous. I got one friend hooked and if I could hook more friends, believe me I would!  

obsessing: I need some order in my life! Its pretty bad when you've been in your new residence for three months and still aren't full unpacked!  Pathetic, I know.  Again this summer will be filled with organizing  painting, decorating and getting our life in somewhat of a less chaotic state of being!  

listening to: I love Thrift Shop, its my mantra. Enough said. 

baking/making: Well I just started weight watchers, so I will be eating lots of yummy veggies and fruits because they are zero points, but my recipes I try out now will be calculated by point values, but I do have some award winners that I will share in later posts.  Really I mean it, I will do more posts! I will keep up this summer!!!!!

looking forward to: No school for THREE MONTHS!  Making a trip to North Carolina to visit my dad and his girlfriend.  And getting unpacked.  Woohoo! 

want to accomplish: Third bedroom needs to be completed by June 29th because Marianne will be in town, so we can meet KA!  WOOHOO!!!  An entire month of a photo a day thing on instagram and getting my garage cleaned out and everything in its rightful place so I can actually decorate at holidays this year!

  

watching: The usual, Vampire Diaries, Awkward, Greys, New Girl, Revolution, and Rupauls Drag Race (gotta represent my girl Roxxy Andrews!  Where my people at??!!) OMG, totally became obsessed with The Walking Dead, the hubs bought me a new dvd player that accesses the internet so I can get netflix on the tv.  Started watching Walking Dead with the hubs and now am totally bummed I have to wait until August to see the third season!   

missing: I can definitely say I am not gonna miss homework or school this summer! HAHA!

Lately.......

I figured since I haven't posted in awhile that I would do some latelys....

reading: What haven't I read lately?  Seems like I have read a ton the past couple of months!  A friend found this awesome author, her name is Kristen Ashley. She has ten million books (literally) and I have read about all of them. They are fun reads, long, but detailed and full of hot men, gaggle of girls, drama and kidnappings.  Weird, I know, but they are so much fun to read!  I'm not the biggest fan of bikers, but one book got me hooked on them! hahaha.  Check her out, her ebooks are cheap and its a really fun read!  I suggest  "motorcycle man", "games of  the heart", "the gamble" and "breathe" of course those are all in series, so you should read the series too!

obsessing: trying to find a house to live in.  I am sick of apartments.  We need room, Zoe needs a yard to play in.  I'm sick of cramming all our things in this tiny apartment. we have outgrown it.  but its so hard finding a house to rent in our budget. 

listening to: still loving Of Monsters and Men

baking/making: I bought an apple peeler/slicer/corer this summer, so I plan on a lot of apple desserts this winter :) 

looking forward to: Christmas festivities. this year we start the tradition of elf on the shelf.

want to accomplish: getting rid of a lot of our stuff we haven't used in awhile.  I decided since I haven't scrapbooked in a long time, and just cart the stuff around that I am going to get rid of it all.  sad, i know.

  

watching: vampire diaries! revolution is good, the mindy project=hilarious, new girl, once upon a time and revenge are on my must watch list.  Also watched breaking amish, disappointing in that one.  those kids were ridiculous.  

missing: being young and having no worries!

A little bit of latelys.....

Latelys.....

I figured since I haven't posted in awhile that I would do some latelys....

reading: Well a friend lent me a book on nook that I am gonna start reading tonight!  Cant wait!

obsessing: trying to organize our lives....trying new fun recipes.  I'm on the hunt for new stuff all the time!

listening to: I just downloaded a bunch of old songs on to my ipod.  Ive been having a lot of nostalgic feelings lately!  like early mid 90's.  I miss the music of those days!

baking/making: Lets see.  Blueberries were cheap the week before I left for vacay so we froze a bunch of them.  Made yummy lemon blueberry donuts. On the agenda is blueberry muffins, I am into cupcakes...but that I'll save for another post :)

looking forward to: spending lazy summer days with my baby!

want to accomplish: OPERATION ORGANIZATION!  I have only put a little chip in the iceberg of that one!!!

watching: well its summer time, so that means True Blood is back on!  I went a little crazy there for a hot minute and bought season 1 and 2, then read the 1st two books of the series again......just because the latest book sucked so bad!  I'm also watching pretty little liars and drop dead diva!!

missing: having no bills. I don't mind the normal ones, but these medical bills are killing me!!  I want my co-pay back!!!

 

What have you all been up to lately???
