Friday Confessional

 

I’m linking up with Mamarazzi!

Forgive me blog world, for I have sinned.

I confess that this week flew by and I put off doing several things that were planned for this week. OOPS. I am being a slacker and just not wanting to actually get things done.

I confess that I cannot believe that summer is almost over. Really? Is it really almost August? Really?! Where did my summer go? I’m still as pasty white as I was during the winter.

I confess that I am dreading winter and the snow, because our car is awful in it. I am also dreading bringing out the VR4 and putting more miles on it. Maybe, I’ll just stay cooped up for the winter and work from home?! I could see myself staying home the entire winter and never setting a toe out, but then who would go snowboarding.

I confess that I am getting really anxious about moving, and a house and such things. As I stated in this post, I am having major issues with the “NOW” monster, and need my wants satisfied right away. Learning how to wait is not happening for me, and it is hard.

I confess, that I am contemplating rewarding myself with a shopping trip to New York if I am able to go a whole year without spending extra money on clothing I do not need but simply want. The rough idea is that I only wear the things I have and make do with what I have, unless I rip my jeans and need a pair of jeans or a new pair of running shoes or what not. And then once a year… or maybe once every six months or so, I take a mini vacation with my girls to go shopping. Thoughts?!

I also confess that the above idea scares me half to death. The thought of not shopping for an extended period of time is almost as scary as the thought of never becoming a mother. UGHH!

I confess, that I missed my husband more than anything else in the world this past week and wish he was here with me right now. He gets back tomorrow evening! Time for flight anxiety to kick in again.

I confess, that instead of thinking about how we will use the new income to pay off debt, I’ve been contemplating all kinds of trips, new laptops, car tires and such that we can spend the money on. This is bad, since debt needs to go away. I need to get down to making lists before we blow all the money on another vacation… I’m not even going to be making that much!

Finally, I confess that not only have I not been to the gym in weeks, but I also took a nap in my car instead of going to class this morning …. OOOPS… And then went to an interview just because, and then spent the evening talking about the upside of fake boobs, trips to Florida and New York, and farting in front of your significant other with my two favorite girls. OHH and I confess that no matter where we are in the world these girls will always be there.

Hope you all are having a fantastic Friday!

I know I will be once I pick up my sweetheart from the airport.

Friday Confessional

 

It’s Friday again and time for the confessions for the week. I’m linking up with Mamarazzi!

I’ve been thinking a lot lately, and that usually means trouble. I had gotten myself so stressed over money that I ended up going a little insane. So my confessions might be a bit long this week, and I will not hold it against you if you skip through them.

So here goes…

I confess … that it felt so good today to put in my two weeks notice. I really don’t know what I’ll do, but I know that I am done working for free. My time is valuable and should be compensated for.

I confess … that it felt really good to take some time on Wednesday morning and go to yoga. It was perfect and so relaxing. I also confess that I can feel the soreness in my shoulders and back… who says yoga isn’t exercise?!

I confess … that I have spent way more than I should have this week. It’s sad how everything runs out at the same time. I am still shampoo less, and have to make a trip down to my stylist to pick it up.

I confess … I almost canceled my gym membership because the customer service rep was mean to me. I also confess that he made me so angry I may or may not have stomped around my office, even though no one could see me.

I confess … I was super nice to the next customer service rep I talked to at Key Bank, and got my way. It made me feel a lot better.

I confess … that I am writing this post instead of writing a paper that I need to send to a client by tomorrow afternoon. OOPS

I confess … that I really want to have my own business, BUT I struggle with separating work and home life. AND I am looking forward to working for someone else for a while. I just want to go to work, do my job come home and relax. No more of this tutoring stuff, no more worrying about how big my next paycheck will be, and so on. It feels nice to know that soon enough I’ll have this opportunity. HOPEFULLY!

I confess … that I am obsessing over a new ring. Especially with the possibility of a new job. I just love jewelry. A new ring and some diamond studs would be perfect.

I confess … that I really enjoyed Transformers: Dark of the Moon, even though it did not get very good reviews. I just love all the cars in the movie, and I thought it had some nice twists. I also LOVE the new look Bee has. I do have to admit it pissed me off that they killed off Ironhide. And I might have shed a few tears when Bee says by to Sam. Yeah… I’m a nerd. And my next car is going to be Ironhide.

I confess… that it is now 12:04 am and I wanted this posted by 12:01… and that drives me and my OCD self insane. I think I will post this and go to bed. And worry about the paper and all that tomorrow. Maybe, maybe not.

For now. I hope you all have a great Friday!

Confessions on a Friday Morning

 

It’s Friday again and time for the confessions for the week. I’m linking up with Mamarazzi!

I confess that I am still in bed, as I type this up. I got up this morning, took a shower, stuck a load of laundry in the wash and got right back into bed to write. Sometime I just want to stay in bed forever.

I confess that I am too excited about throwing my MIL birthday party this Saturday. I really want to make it super special, and fancy. I honestly would love to be an event planner, and for a while thought about it as a career.

On that note, I confess that I tend to get all kinds of ideas, then decided that I’d rather stay in bed and not do anything. Hence, why I’m still dreaming of a career as a makeup artist, an event planner and so many other. I confess that I need to start taking control of things in my life.

I confess that I really need to find a full time job, for at least a year, so that we can be financially ready to move, but HATE writing my resume. I write resumes for others all the time, I literally write for a living right now, and yet cannot write my own dang resume. How pathetic.

I confess that my sinus infection is driving me nuts, and I hate that my first month of summer has been spent feeling miserable.

I also confess that I haven’t spent a single day at the pool yet, because my community HOA is retarded. They are only available on Thursdays from 9 am to 3 pm to take photos and issue out pool passes. Well both the Mister and I are working on Thursdays during that time so I’m not too sure how we’re suppose to get our passes. OH and when I email them to figure it out, they never answer me back. THOSE JERKS!!!

I confess that I really need to get out of bed and get my butt moving, but I’d rather sit here and write more confessions, simply because I’m lazy.

I also confess that I have a mile long to do list that is being neglected at all costs.

With that, I think I am going to get my butt out of bed, and ready to get things done.

First stop is Shane Co to pick up my resized ring, then the mall for a gift, the groceries, the bank and the post office. <3

Have an amazing Friday and a Happy 4th of July weekend!

Friday Confessionals

It’s Friday again and time for the confessions for the week. I’m linking up with Mamarazzi!

I confess that I’m super annoyed with my laptop. I mean, really super duper annoyed and slightly frustrated. I got the charger BUT it is not the right one, even though the Amazon seller said that it works for HP Touchsmart 2s, I just went back and checked. I wanted to bang my head against the desk or better the wall.

On the brighter note, I finally went to the doctor and got a physical and talked about all of my concerns. And I confess she convinced me into trying yoga, specifically Hot Yoga.

In addition, I just went ahead and bought this deal:

Even though they don’t have hot yoga, it was too good of a deal to pass up. I am so excited to get into yoga and adding it to my workouts.

I confess I’ve put off getting things done for a while, and used my computer being a jerk as an excuse. OOPS. Now I have to get it all done tonight and tomorrow. GREATTT!

I confess I am so excited for my amazing and beautiful best friend to come up this weekend from Boulder. We’ve got a project brewing and I know it is going to be amazing. I also confess that I hate the fact that we live an hour away from each other, and between our hectic schedules have very little time to spend together. I wish we were kids and could just watch movies and drink hot tea.

I confess I’ve been doing too much online window-shopping and all I want to do is buy more stuff. My window shopping includes, shoes, clothes, makeup, houses, cars, electronics and so on. On top of my list are the following:

I also confess that I have a nasty sore throat and my allergies are flaring up. My nose is running, my throat hurts, and I cannot swallow. I’m pretty miserable, and all I want to do is sleep. Having to redo an article that has been submitted twice to only come back with idiotic comments makes me an even more frustrated and grouchy.

I’m going to stop here before I start bitching about all the other negatives.

Hope you all are having a great Friday, and I’ll try and catch up over this weekend.

Friday Confessions

 

It’s Friday again and time for the confessions for the week. I’m linking up with Mamarazzi!

I confess...

... that I'm somehow running a week ahead in my schedule but I'm about a week behind in the workload.

... I'm putting aside write several assignments just to spend some time with a friend and her kids, and I love it. I hope that when I have kids I can be as good a mom as my friend and have adorable children like her. In all honesty she's my idol!

... I drink entirely too much caffeine in form of coffee and tea.

... I LOVE literally LOVE helping others when it comes to school, work and building personal goals. I think this is the psychologist in me coming out. AND honestly if I didn't need the money I'd do it for free.

... I also love meeting people, and am grateful to have met so many amazing people in my short life.

... I am a little jealous of my friend that will be heading out to Mexico tomorrow morning, but I hope that she has an amazing time because she truly deserves the vacation.

... my kitchen is a mess.

... but my laundry isn't piling up.

... I'm going to go with the Mister to his Magic tournament tonight, even though I'd rather be doing something else. But he wants my support, therefore he will get it.

... I'm also a little jealous of my Mister, because he's little blog that is only a month and a week old has already gotten more views then mine, and he's averaging about 300+ views a day. Head over and check it out if you want to OD on Magic the Gathering info. 

... my friend and I are working on a project that should be completely amazing, and I hope y'all will love. I'm a little nervous about how well it will turn out but hope that it is fantastic. It would be amazing.

... I am still taking pictures for the blog sale! Who new I had so much stuff. And I haven't even done the final run through my closet. Sad isn't it?!

I'm thinking this weekend you should see the blog sale going up, however I have a question, would you guys rather see it in one post? several posts? or on the Facebook page?!

By the way if you aren't already following me on facebook and twitter head on over and follow for latest updates on life, the blog sale and so on. The buttons are on my right hand panel. I'll follow you right back!!!

With that I am off to the Botanical Gardens! 

Confessional Friday

It’s Friday again and time for the confessions for the week. I’m linking up with Mamarazzi!

Confession number one! I cannot believe it is already Friday. Did this week just fly by or what?! I love when we get a long four day weekend followed by a four day workweek, but this was the fastest it has gone by. I cannot tell you how glad I am that another week is under my belt, while I hate time flying by I’m excited for this year to be over so that our debt can be paid and we can move on to bigger and better things. Time flying also means we’re closer to the next payday and closer to paying things off.

I hate debt. Really, and the Mister and I have vowed to never get into debt again. Once our credit cards are paid off, we’ll be using cash for everything. It’s sad that my education and our vacations have done to our financial situations. BUT I confess that while I freak out now and then, I feel confident that we’re on the right track.

I confess that I loved going to Body Pump on Wednesday but I hate how sore my body is right now. AND swear to never miss another class or a day at the gym.

I also confess that I’m trying to clean out my closet, and I keep finding things that I’ve impulsively bought and have either worn once or NEVER at all. So what would you all think about having a blog-sale with all the items that I do not have room for but cannot bring myself to give away to God knows who. I would want them to go to someone who would actually use them.

I also confess that I do not want to go back to full time retail work. I love what I do at the hospital even though I don’t get paid for it. I love the kids I tutor and have made some great friends tutoring college students. I love that I am home when the Mister gets home and have time to cook and clean. HENCE I confess that I’ve been working some projects to try and work from home full time. This would be ideal.

I confess that I have too many confessions for today, but don’t want to bore you to death with all of them. Hence, I confess that I’m going to stop confessing right now.

I hope you all have a fantastic Friday, filled with lots of smiles, laughs and love.

Friday Confessional

 

It’s Friday again and time for the confessions for the week. I’m linking up with Glamazon & Mamarazzi!

 

I confess, that I’m enjoying my slightly hectic life. Sometimes I feel that I drive around all day, running from one place to the next, but at the end of the day I love what I’m doing with my life, even though it has nothing to do with my degree.

I’m kind of wanting a little crafts corner like this

I confess I made 3 homemade meals this week and loved every single one of them. This might have to become a trend.

I confess that I check my blog entirely too much, and really it has become an obsession. I love, love, love getting comments from all you awesome gals out there, and have made some awesome friends in the short time in the blogging world.

I confess that I’m writing this at 12:48 AM, and am entirely too awake and giddy considering I’ve been up since 6 AM this morning.

I confess that all I want to do right now is get on a jet plane and run off to some warm tropical location with my hubby.

I confess that I cannot wait until my shoes are here. I ordered another size to see if I like the way they fit better. My big toe hates me and loves to stick out of peep toe shoes.

I confess I went to the gym at 8 AM and loved the fact that I got my workout in so early.

I also confess that I spent too much money on Groupons this week, but am excited to use ‘em. Maybe I’ll share what I got them for in the near future. As a matter of fact, I’m sure I will. But for now it’s my little secret.

I’ve been really considering getting a spray tan, and one of my neighbors has a lady that comes to her house and does it for her, but I also just want to do it myself. Anyone spray themselves? What brand do you use to not look orange, and for God’s sake how the heck do you get your back and make sure it’s even. HA!

I confess, that I love Fridays when the Mister is home, which happens to be every other weekend, and this weekend we have a four day weekend. WOO

Finally, I confess it make me both sad and proud that all my high school debaters, who I coached when they were freshman are now officially graduated and on their way to bigger and better things. If any of you are reading this, I really am soo very proud of you and couldn’t be happier for your accomplishments both in high school and through your debate careers. I hope you remember me once in a while and come back and talk to me. Or I’ll just stalk y’all on facebook and make sure you are having a time of your life in college!

Now all my kiddos are graduated from high school! These were the best high school debaters that anyone has had the honor of coaching. I wish I had been there for their senior year.

Confessions on a Friday

 

It’s Friday again and time for the confessions for the week. I’m linking up with Glamazon & Mamarazzi!

I confess that I did all my laundry this week, it took about 7 loads, but it’s all done. So really the confession is that I’m a slacker when it comes to doing laundry. I’d rather go buy more clothes then wash the ones I have.

I confess that if my laundry room looked like this I would be much more likely to get it done on time. I also think that a laundry room needs to be right next the master bedroom. Yes?!

I’ve also been paying quite a bit in my Fat Tax, and skipped out on the gym yesterday as well. I used the rain outside as an excuse. I’m an awful person!!!

I confess that all I’ve been wanting to do is curl up in bed and sleep, for a week. The weather has been gloomy, and I have been craving some alone time. Enough alone time that I would have no problem canceling plans for the next two weeks to stay home with my books and computer.

I also confess that I have been obsessing about this blog, I am not really sure why, but it’s been such a great resource of getting my thoughts together and keeping track of life that I want to sit down and document the past 22 years of my life.

Shoes… I finally got my shoes. I must confess I LOVE them, but they might be slightly uncomfortable being patient leather and all. However, there is not a chance in heck I would return them. I’m one of those that believes if the shoe hurts then it must look fabulous. Granted they are not that uncomfortable, so maybe they don’t look that fantastic. hummm.  

I’ve been obsessively cleaning lately, and honestly I like it. I love having a clean home, where things are organized. I use to just shove things in closets and under the bed to make it look clean and tidy, but as I grow I start taking on my mom’s cleaning genes. I hate messes.

I also have been working on a few new projects that should be debuting in a few weeks, and I confess that I really, really really want to share with y’all but think I’ll keep it a surprise.

I’ve been so antsy and nervous lately about  moving, grad schools, family and so on. I’m excited for new chapters but it’s hard for me to walk out of my comfort zone and invest myself and our money into something new.

I want my granpas bookstore back, the actual brick and mortar version of it not just the online. I want to sit behind my computer, surrounded by books and work away the day.

Finally, I’ve been eating so much junk lately that my skin is freaking out, I feel gross and I need to stop.

 

I’m declaring this Friday as the turning point in my awful eating, unwillingness to go to the gym and the fact that I’ve just been a hermit. Blah.

On the brighter note, I hope y’all are having a fantastic Friday! Denver finally has some sunshine, so I’m going out to get groceries for our boil tonight.

PS… Keep your eye’s peeled for the fantastic recipe for the easiest shrimp/crawfish boil in the world!

  

 

Confessions Confessions … on a Friday

 

I really had a ton of fun last Friday doing the confession link up with Glamazon & Mamarazzi, so here I am again today. I might even make it into a weekly deal. 

 

1. I confess that I have been super lazy about things this week. But can you blame me, it’s almost the end of the semester, I have one final to go and all I want to do is be done with school.
2. I confess that I’ve been wearing socks all week because I’m too lazy to paint my toes and even lazier to drive to the salon and get a pedi.
3. I confess that I am ready to move out of state and start building our home… better yet, move out of the country and explore Europe for a few years before we have kids. Now only if Husband’s job would transfer him to Germany.
4. I confess, I’ve been driving Husband up the wall, with my daydreams of moving back to Europe. I think he is getting ready to invest in some duct-tape to shut me up.
5. I confess I’d rather stay home and write on a Friday night then be out drinking. I feel like a granny, but honestly I’ve outgrown my drinking days and feel guilty admitting it.
6. I confess that I am going to stay home by myself tonight and grill up some Chicken Pineapple burgers. Yup, and enjoy it by myself in our backyard… I also may or maynot have some fries and an alcoholic beverage to go along with this.
7. I confess I’ve been obsessed with wedding photography and love stories and have more then likely stocked you on your blog if you have wedding photos and love stories up. I’m a sucker.
8. I confess, my house, bedroom, and everything else is a mess. It’s driving me up the wall, but I can’t seem to motivate myself to clean. I am dreaming and wishing for a maid that will come over and clean it all up.
9. I confess I’ve actually been thinking about hiring a maid, I’ve heard some people pay a $80 to a $100 a week for a lady to come, clean, do the laundry, scrub the tubs, and even iron once a week. Yes, please… sign me up!
10. Finally, I confess that I have too many things to confess so I will keep them for next Friday.

  What are your Friday Confessions?  

 

Friday Confessions

 

I was just about to write something along these lines when I came across Lindsey’s blog where she linked up with Glamazon and Mamarazzi for their weekly Friday Confessions. So I’m linking up as well.

  So here are my confessions from this week:

• I’m really slacking on studying for my final, and even doing the papers that I need to get done in my other classes. In short, I’m just done and given up with school. It makes me feel guilty, but I’m surprisingly unstressed about it.
• I confess, that I only went to the gym on Monday, and after my knee started hurting I used it as an excuse to sit on the couch. Again, I feel guilty about it, and will probably work 3 times as hard this coming week.
• My knee got hurt because I’m too against wearing my knee brace, but now that I have learned my lesson, I don’t care what I look like as long as my knee is protected.
• Also, I don’t understand what the big deal with the Royal Wedding is… I just didn’t really get into it, and while I think it’s great they are getting married it truly wasn’t something I even planned on watching. OOPS.
• I confess, that even though I don’t have anywhere to go now days I still want to buy more shoes.
• Not only buy more shoes but dresses, and skirts… even though I live out of jeans and a t-shirt.
• Speaking of jeans and a t-shirt, I hate how “sloppy” I’ve become, I use to dress up, do my hair and makeup every day no matter if I was working or not. Lately, I can barely get myself to brush my hair… this has GOT TO STOP.
• The last on my list today, is the fact that I am willing to pay $4.00 a gallon of gas to drive around in my Camaro instead of one of the other cars with better gas mileage.

  I hope y’all have a fantastic Friday, and go over and link up with these lovely ladies.
