More Good Times.

Today has been a great day! I was able to go shopping all by myself. I love getting to chance to go shopping alone. Does that make me wierd? Oh well, it was nice and relaxing. I bought a new dress and a new shirt. I also found some suh-weet boots. They are dark brown suede equestrian style boots and I got them for a steal. Love it when that happens!

After I got done with all that I called and chatted with Tim. We decided to go to Ton's for lunch. Do they have Ton's by where you live? If you don't have one near you, you just don't know what your missing! It's like Genghis Grill but sooooooo much better in my opinion. They also give you free ice cream after your meal. Free ice cream = awesome!

------------------------------------------------

I got a new Mary Kay order today! Still trying to find hostesses for parties. I'm so in love with all of the products. They are fabulous, there's just no other word to describe them. If you read my blog you know that I had chicken pox last week. Gross, I know. But get a load of this; my face barely looks like the rest of my body where I had "breakouts" of the pox. I wash my face with the TimeWise Miracle set in the mornings and at night. The rate at which my face's scars healed is insane! And I know it's becasue of the ingredients in our skin care line.



If it wasn't so gross I'd take pics for you to compare for yourself. But that's so gnarly I just can't bring myself to do it. Instead I'll show you what the Miracle Set looks like. Boy did you get lucky!! My face looks so good, lol, not trying to sound vain. I'm just saying considering I had chicken pox last week, by looking at my face alone you'd never guess.

----------------------------------------------------

Got to chat with lmy grandma in San Antonio for a few minutes today. Man, I love her! I've been blessed with the best grandparents ever!!!! Jealous? :P

Doesn't she just look like a lot of fun to hang out with?!?!
----------------------------------------------------

That's about all I know. I've gotta work on a big post. It's about my first surgery, and it's hard to get through it without becoming a blubbering baby. Mother's Day is a big deal for me because of what my mom has done for me on that special day devoted to moms. Stay tuned and get out your Kleenex!!!

Good Times.

Today was a good day, though I had a rough start. Good news is the chicken pox are gone!

Sing it with me, "Ding dong the pox are gone...dada da da""

Yesterday was rough stuff! I worked from 9 am - 1:30 am Friday and I was pooped! Tim finished the huge job he was working on too, so today was a nice day off for both of us. But getting out of bed this morning...OY! I thnk instead of having a crick in my neck I had a crick in everything else. Moving was rough! Once I got to moving and got a nice hot shower in things started getting better.

I got dressed and all gussied up and headed for casa de la Tim. He had some shopping to do and asked if I wanted to go. Um, hellooooo? Is that even a question that needs to be asked? Of COURSE I'll come shopping with you! There's nothing I love more than giving my unsolicited opinion!!!

After shopping and errands we had a suuuuuper late lunch at Mercado Juarez...nummy nummy nummy! We had the fajitas for two with chicken and beef. We ate til we were miserable and still had tons of left-overs. Score!

Tim is so kind, he bought me a new pair of sunglasses and endured taking me into Petsmart. I'm a big "ooooh and awwwww!"-er. Every other step in that store I found something cute to admire. The whole time he's looking at harnesses for Clyde and talking to me about all the different features he's hearing me act like a 10 year old girl. "Look at the puppy Tim! Did you see the puppy?! Wasn't it cute? .....Yes it was. I don't care what you say it was precious. Did you see that dog go down the slide?!?!"

I guess I should explain that they were holding a Diggie Day Camp today and one of the walls was solid glass where you could peek in. They had a fisher price little plastic play fort the puppies to climb in and there was a little black dog that loved the slide. It was so presh!!!

After Petsmart we headed to Tim's house again for a movie night.

It was a great day and a nice break from being stuck inside all the time and getting away from the stress. I'm so glad he's able to handle me. :p

On another note;  I miss my grandparents. I think I'll call my grandma tomorrow just to chit chat.

RanDUMB Moments

Although most people know that I am the queen of finding good deals, back when I first became a Christian, I had a very well paying job and LOVED splurging on myself. Price was usually an afterthought. Crazy, huh? I'm glad that my attitude about money has been transformed! Thank you, LORD!

I had a super cute pair of shoes made by a fancy designer. The name of which is not important. Possibly because I'm ashamed of the ridiculous price tag these shoes had. I also had an adorable pair of pink heels from Target. Under $30 -holla!!

This story is already getting randumb, huh? Well, that was a little information you needed before I could share with you the actual story.

One Sunday I woke up in a frenzy. I slept in. LATE. I don't do late. I HATE being late, especially for church! I jumped out of bed and sped through my morning routine. I slapped on my make up. Arranged my hair in some sort of quick up-do. Got dressed into the first outfit I saw in my closet. Hopped into my shoes. Swung my purse over my shoulder, snatched up my Bible and flew out the door.   { I'm sure I brushed my teeth somewhere in there. :/ }

By some miracle I managed to catch all green lights on the way to church. Whew! I pulled up to the church at 9:59 a.m. BAM! I'd be taking my seat juuust in time for the start of worship service. I opened my car door and swung my leg out to climb out of my car...Ohhhhhmigoodness!!! I'm wearing two different shoes!!!! How did this happen?! It's not like it was two black shoes that looked similar. No. This was a cute, expensive, sleek black pump that cost a small fortune and a cheap, hot pink peep-toe shoe! Whaaaa? The only similarity between them wehre that the heels were the same height.

I was so amused with myself. I thought it was hilarious! But then I got to thinking, I've only known these people for a month or two....what will they think? You know how us women get. Whatever. I just shrugged it off, pulled my shoulders back, held my head high and marched into that church like nothing was wrong.

I think was the first glimpse everyone got of the real me. It was funny, and I got ribbed about it for a few months, but it was all in good fun.


What got to me was this one question: How could I not feel the difference between a $27 pair of shoes from target and a high end pair of heels?!

Things that make ya go hmmmmm....

Tuesday Ten List

Wow! What a crazy week I've had. Super long story short, I have chicken pox! Eeek! For the 2ND TIME!!! D: So I've been on the mend for a week. This week's list will be 10 things you may not know about me.

Soooo hold on to your hat....here we go!
  1. I craft. A lot. I'm planning on posting some of the stuff I am making soon.
  2. I am super clumsy, I really do trip or fall over something at least once a day.
  3. I haven't always had a snort when I laugh. It's actually a result from some surgery I had when I was 15.
  4. Until I needed emergency surgery in 10th grade, I NEVER missed a day of school in my life.
  5. I do not own anything yellow. Strange, huh?
  6. I'm addicted to Diet Coke and can't stand Dr. Pepper
  7. I own an insane amount of blankets. If you ever need a gift idea for me...you can never go wrong with blankets! {My birthday is in 28 days...hint hint*}
  8. I have never been out of the country. But I do want to go to Israel super bad after hearing all about Tim's trip.
  9. I love to read. Really. I'd rather stay at home and read than go out.
  10. I'm VERY sensitive. My skin isn't very thick at all, I'm working on it though!
Here's a couple of pictures of how I found Clyde when I came over yesterday. There was a shirt left on top of his kennel that he decided would make a nice snack before trying it on himself. HA!



Please leave me a comment sharing some things people may not know about you! I'd love to learn more about you!
