Now that's labeled and organized!

What I'm Lovin Wednesday....
Link up here with Jamie
It looks like she hasn't put up the linky thing just yet but I am late to work so this means I will have to link up on her list later!!!



Isn't this closet super cute? Seriously. If I had a hall closet at all, I'd so do this! The only bathroom storage I have is under the sink! Poo. :( sad face.



The containers are from Ikea...they are actually those dresser dividers for your clothes in your dresser! clever right?



Bachelor update!!!! I didn't see any posts about it..this must mean you all felt as I did.......SNOOZE fest! haha I was bored. Recap: Michelle the nut bag gave her own self a black eye. There were lots of insecurities shown girls crying etc etc...meh.....boring to me.

I was excited however, to see this pretty lil thing to get some screen time with the B Rad man!



Britt. Such a dollface. She has a soft spot
 right behind Emily in my book as a pick for Brad!

I really like these 2 ladies too, but as good lookin as they are, they haven't got much screen time or any one on one time with Brad so I have a funny feeling both Cutie-pah-tootie Lisa and Dark and dashing Marissa will get the boot soon. 





Jumping ship here with topics...

I have decided should I ever get a tattoo, I'd get one here...just like LC did. 
see it?-->

But I think I would get the word "love".
maybe in some font similar to this...


But, I have enjoyed my tattoo free body for 28 yrs now, so I don't see me doing this anytime soon!

Tell It To Me Tuesdays

TELL IT TO ME TUESDAYS!
1st Edition :) 


After much discussion with a few fellow bloggers, I decided that I would finally make up my own little day of the week "what I'm Lovin" type topic!

So from what I've seen on blogs, there is Misc Monday, What I'm Lovin Wednesday, or Wordless Wednesday, And There is one for Five Question Friday.

But let's be honest. Not every week we have something we LOVE. ha. (boyfriends husbands kids exception of course.) Do you ever need a day that you would just like to post something that bugs ya? I do! haha. It doesn't have to be anything horrid, perhaps a pet peeve or something someone totally did to annoy you.

My inspiration for this comes from Cosmo. How many of you read it each month like I do? And how many of you love reading the last page in cosmo called the BIt*h it out picture page?

Did the lightbulb go on? DING DING DING!!!!

Thus, Tell It To Me Tuesdays!

I Wanna know (What the heck is bothering you!) Just simply post a picture of it, write a few sentences and then link up to see what others have posted!

I'll Start.


TELL IT TO ME TUESDAY....



So lately while driving I have been noticing MORE and More of this...

Are you kidding me!?!?!?! Who does that????? TWO hands to text and not hold the steering wheel? Are they nuts? nope, just ridiculously stupid and selfish. Endanger the lives of others. Great idea.


And I don't know if it's more of an annoyance that this chick is texting when she is suppose to be working on her cardio, or the fact that she is on gym equipment taking her sweet time while she texts...




Well, TELL IT TO ME girls!

Let's see what you snap pics of throughout the week of your little things you want to share that just bug ya! :)

I realize somedays will be harder than others, esp if you don't leave your house or you work from home, as well as some of us are not as camera shy to just snap pictures on our cell of people in public, but I am hoping y'all will over come those fears!

Blogger Etiquette

Oh boy. Another vent post!  Haven't had one since my Facebook post!

Some of you will not like this post. Some of you may not follow me anymore, some of you may comment, some won't comment, some will read it and say nothing, some will agree and some won't agree. The point is we are ALL entitled to our opinion, right? Right.

Not every post is going to be about fashion, stars, glitz and glam. Some of us do post about real life, questions, problems issues. Whatever they may be. I don't have my blog to post about superficial things 24/7 although I do post about those things (stars and movies and what not often because it is fun! )

As I wrote about on a previous post about Facebook, An opinion is an opinion. Not everyone is going to agree with you. That's life. Expect people to differ.

Recently I was following a blog, that I would comment on from time to time. I am no longer following this blog, nor is this blogger following me. We had some "words" so to speak. Sad for the blog world right? I think so. I tried to make it "right" but this blogger wasn't having it. Way to defensive. I am going to go with the fact that I am 5 years older than this blogger and our levels of maturity are just on different pages when it comes to verbal "internet" comments and not taking them so personal! JEEISH!


This fellow blogger we shall call her Miss "X" out of respect that I am not going to call names out or anything disrespectful to her. Miss X had recently posted about moving into a new home, with her man, and then experiencing a lot of living together issues and "not being happy" crying a lot type problems. That is all I can say without saying to much. About 20 of the commenters told her "this is normal" to have problems blah blah.... etc etc... I was the only one to comment on the "flip side" of it and say that I didn't agree. To be VERY HONEST I am THAT GIRL that doesn't sugar coat anything to anyone. This means when you don't write what people want to hear/read, they take offense to it. Dislike. You should always want to read what others have to say esp if they don't agree with you!!!!

In another post, Miss "X" posted about her thoughts on adopting a dog. Now mind you, being the BIG animal guru that I am, ( yes, I take great pride that i know a lot about animals. I used to show my dog growing up in dog shows THIS MAKES ME KNOWLEDGEABLE!!!! you have to know EVERYTHING about your breed!!!) anywho...
 I naturally asked/wrote/inquired on her wall (since this isn't FB and I couldn't just send her a mesg) if that was such a good idea since that maybe she was feeling like she needed to fill the void since her man moved out for the time being? People do this!!! I know They do. I see it hear it all the time. People buy things to fill the void. I wasn't saying she was doing that, just asking if that was what she really wanted...since we pet owners know owning dogs is VERY EXPENSIVE. Well some newbie blogger commented under my comment basically telling me to screw off on this girl's page! What the? Who does that? Seriously. Enter blogger etiquette. first Miss X--  Why would she let someone else write a nasty comment right back under mine on her wall? If my comment was all that bothersome or mean, why did she leave it up? hello you are the blog administrator this means you are the person in control of that almighty delete button! argh!


If you don't want people to comment or ask questions about your life and your posts and what not THEN DONT BLOG about it. Pretty simple right? ha. Not so much for others I suppose. Somehow Miss "X" wrote me a novel email basically thinking I was being negative towards her. Are you kidding? Wow because I didn't comment all happy go lucky comments like the rest of the world, and I brought up the "Other side" of the grass not being so green that makes me the bad girl? Nice.

This is the internet for you. Harsh mean words totally misconstrued.

Read for yourself. Now by me posting this picture some of you may feel I am airing way more dirty laundry than needed. Note. This is my page. These are my feelings. Now I am the one taking offense. So therefore, again, if you don't like it, don't comment, don't follow. I am just a girl trying to stand up for what is my stance on a few things she wrote about.  I know some of you that read what I post, did comment on her wall, so I do apologize if I got part of your comments on her wall in my post, and please for the sake of not naming names don't use the person's name if you do happen to comment on my post!




I check back after I have commented on a post, just to see if others wrote anything. Not to mention many people that comment you can't write back to bec of the no reply thing..(meaning they didn't ever list their email on their profile info) So this is how I know some girl told me to screw off on Miss "X" page. Ugh.... really.

But for me, it wasn't even a big deal till Miss "X" emailed me basically saying she didn't like hearing me say that "my relationship was perfect" blah blah..... Time out. Really? So what she is saying is she hates me because I don't have problems in my relationship. Wow. Nice. I may not be making 60,000 grand as clearly this youngin fresh out of school gal does, who has the doe to own her own home (kudos) I have never blogged about being poor or how little teachers make......but thats OKAY with me. I don't do what I do to be rich. Anyone who is a teacher knows we don't do it for the money. I may not be rich in the bank, but I AM rich in LOVE. And I take great pride in the fact that I can say that, and if others hate on me bec I have something they don't, the so be it. most everyone has  the $$$ and I don't and it doesn't bother me. You get what you get, and you don't throw a fit! words we teachers tell kids. :)

Thoughts? If any, leave some :)

A MUST SEE!




Go See this movie. SERIOUSLY. It was sooooooo good. And you can drag your man to it. I was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't a cheesy love story. I really really really really liked the movie. It's been so long since I've laughed at Romantic Comedy and then left the theater thinking that I couldn't wait for it to come out on DVD! I haven't said that about a movie in at least a year!

So what are you waiting for!?!? GET GOING AND GO SEE IT!!!!!!

Guilty Pleasure

Other than watching The Bachelor, my guilty pleasure on Netflix has been catching up on an old childhood favorite series of mine. When I was younger, I used to love reading about the romance between Anne & Gilbert from Anne of Green Gables


I was enthralled their love hate relationship (Gil secretly loving Anne Anne never knowing) this kept my nose in the series till I finished all the books.

I got hooked on the Avonlea series. Which is what I'm watching now. I love Sarah Polley. She's great.



Anyone else a fan of Lucy Maude Montgomery's books? :) Meagan Follows is the only actress I think ever fit to even play Anne in the series. So great!
