DODGER

I am expecting lol no no no I am not prego!!! I am getting a brand new cute as a button little cutie. His name is Roger "Dodger" Mollenhauer and he is arriving at my home the day after Turkey Day!!! I have been waiting to get him and I am so happy in a week that cute little bugger will be in my arms!!! I love dogs I have always been a dog person and am so excited about him. Thanks to Rhonda for the awesome deal I got on him. I am all set for him got his crate, collar, leash, and also got him the cutest bandanna. No I am not going to dress him up in a ton of diff outfits but I prob will dress him up for Halloween call me crazy if you would like but idc he is cute and he is mine and I couldn't be happier :)!!!!

Summer Slipping away...

I am not ready to say goodbye to summer no no no. I love it so much I may complain about the heat but I really do love it!! I love running threw sprinklers, children's laughter, Popsicles, and I love my flip flops and bare feet. Shorts and tees and apple pie family memories and fire works. Nothing could be better than all of this when a child is content with just a hose and an old blue tarp slip sliding away. No no it can't be coming to an end it just began. I love back yard BBQ and kick the can baseball games and nachos mmmmm. So this is my second week on weight watchers down 6lbs 9 million to go. I got back on for me for the way it makes me feel when I am not scared to death to step on that scale because the number is going down. Its going well and I look forward to shedding some more and reaching my goal!!

Why are people so rude?

I got called a name today.....not a very nice name not a name I deserve to be called I think. Sometimes I just wonder when did we stop being civil and start acting like savages?? I understand that I am human and I am capable of making people angry but really name calling huh so sad. Well this name made me realize its time to get back to Weight Watchers. I have let myself slip so now its time to get back to where I want to be. Wish me luck all!!!

TRUE BLOOD!!!

I am so excited the new season of True Blood starts in about 3 hours. My sister got me hooked on this wonderful creepy mysterious show I love it!!! If you haven't seen it you should watch. Well its not for everyone sex vampire's its sooooo good!!!

Heart Break City

So I am a SWF single white female its my calling in life. I'm no good at relationships I suck at them. I think when I am in one that I am doing good and then bam!!! Knocks me on my ass and I am back to being single. So I am declaring that I am throwing in my towel. My heart is broken not just by men that I love but men that I am also friends with. I am not the marrying type its just not in the card for me. I know cry or whatever for the loser that can't snag a man. I am beginning to think I have a huge tattoo on my head that says if your a huge loser then come talk to me I will rip you to shreds in the end!!! Yeah I am having a pity party for myself and IDC!!! Its my blog and if I want to have a pity party then I am going to. Yes in the long run I want marriage and family and all that jazz but, if I can't find it then I know I will be OK. So this is me saying I am done and I am going to stop looking for Mr. Right and stop letting Mr. Right Now into my life.

M.I.A

I know I haven't blogged in awhile I will get back to it soon. Kinda busy right now but I will be back on track soon.

I Love Sundays

Summer of 69 Thrift Store Refashion Frock GIVEAWAY!!!!

Summer of 69 Thrift Store Refashion Frock GIVEAWAY!!!!

New Ink I Say

So the day that I turned 18 years old I marched into my living room and told my parents I am 18 now and tomorrow I am driving to Flagstaff and getting a tattoo. They were not very thrilled out all I told them I would be getting a hummingbird on my shoulder. Again weren't very thrilled about my choice at all oh well I said I am getting it. I love birds if you know me you know this I just love them hummingbirds are beautiful. I also enjoy sparrows and other birds as well. I have bird earrings, rings, and necklaces I just love it. So I went and I got my hummingbird tattoo which I love its colorful not huge and on my left shoulder.

Then the day came and I turned 21 I thought well I think I am going to get another tattoo on my hip that one was kinda different weird choice we wont go there but I have another one on my hip. Again my dad saw this and told me he was not thrilled but what could he do ground me uh no so he let it go. I only get them in places where I can cover them up.

So for many many years since I got my tattoo when I was 21 I really wanted to get one on my foot. Hibiscus flowers are my favorite flowers there colorful and bright and I just love them. I knew I only wanted to get one more tattoo and I really wanted it on my foot. I've seen girls before with them on their foot and I just think it looks so cute with flip flops my fav shoe of choice. So on Thursday I went down to the local tattoo shop and got it done on my foot. I am very satisfied now I really like it, it hurt but it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. I know a lot of you out there are thinking OMG a tattoo how tacky well I disagree. I think they are fun and beautiful and a way to express ones self. I am happy that I got it done and very satisfied with the results.

5 Favorite Things

Just for fun I thought I would share 5 of my favorites things with you. If you would like you too could share 5 things with everyone else. I am in love with this Bare Minerals makeup in fairly light. I have been using it for years now. One of my old roommates got me into and I have been hooked ever since.

This little pink device The Blackberry Curve has got me so hooked beyond belief I love it so much and I am so addicted to crack berry. I take it everywhere with me and I mean everywhere.

My mom gave me this to try Biore' Warming Ani-blackhead Cleanser and I just love how it makes my face feel it warms up and feels great against your skin. I was using high dollar cosmetic counter face wash and it was so pricey. It also didn't work as well as this did. Plus who doesn't love to save a buck.

I have said it before that I am a lip gloss junkie. Well C. O. Bigelow lip balm are by far my most used and most fave. It has a great minty scent and feels so good on your lips no matter how chapped they are. I love all of them but the Pink Mint is my fave.

This right here is my newest fave item thanks to my dear Ole sister. The Nintendo Ds lite wow can't you tell that I really like pink she new that too. This thing is fun to play I got the brain age game and the cooking one too both great fun things. I got a kick out of my dad he played it all afternoon.

Friday

To top off my Friday I got a flat tire UGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

UGH!!

Today is not such a great day my phone is freaking out malfunctioning and having a mind of its own. Its really very frustrating and its down right pissing me off. My texts appear and get erased I get no phone calls because it doesn't ring then it pops up saying I have missed calls but then erases them UGHHHHH! So I ordered a new phone and it will be here Monday. Don't get me wrong I love love love my Blackberry I love getting e-mails and having the Internet right at my finger tips. I love Crackberry I am totally addicted to that. Its just that my phone is defective and needs to be shot down in its prime.




Ok the next thing that set me off today was that my taxes were rejected what how can they be rejected they have never been rejected before. Well I resubmitted them and now I think they are getting excepted well I sure as Hell hope so.





Then last but not least I am trying to get a pale grant for school I have jumped threw hoops and danced with that ball on my nose. I submitted my application then the lady from the school told me the wrong year so then I submitted another application. More hoops more dancing with the ball on my nose then my app gets rejected. What why the Hell is everyone rejecting me?? So I resubmitted did more hoops even jumped threw a ring of fire. Do you know just how hard it is for Single White Females to get help with anything VERY VERY HARD. I am about to snap so I need to step back and take a few breaths. Aren't Fridays suppose to be good??

It's Ok

I know we lost but, I still love my Cardinals. We gave it a good go and when it came down to it, it was close. What was up with Kurt Warner tonight did the pressure just get to him?? Oh well at least we made it all the way to the Super Bowl. Cardinals will always be winners to me!!

SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY

Lets GO Cardinals Lets GO. I have to support my home state team! Happy Super Bowl Sunday to everyone. Love Super Bowl Sunday great food great friends & family and awesome commericals. Come on Cardinals we can do it!!!!!

School Daze

Yay! So I am going back to school and I get to do it all from my house. I applied for my pale grants and my student loan I hope it all goes threw. I am going to the University of Phoenix and I am really excited. I am thinking since our economy is so bad I really need to have a career not a job. I am going for Hospital Administrator In Medical Records. I start in February I am really nervous and excited. I was going to go for medical billing and coding but they didn't have a program for that. After talking to the school councilor I decided that would be a great field for me. That way I can go to school and find a job. Wish me luck I am going to really try my hardest.

I'VE BEEN TAGGED!

So sorry Tyla I just noticed she tagged me wow 7 random facts about me well here we go!

1. I hate to copy Nic but I too hate hate hate snakes they are gross and nasty and they are my biggest fear. I have no idea why but they just freak me out.

2. I will wear flip flops all year round I hate tennis shoes and I hate to wear socks I would rather be bare foot but flip flops work.

3. I am not a morning person I will probably learn to be that way when I have kids, but for now I love to sleep in and I love my coffee. I am total night person I like to go out at night and I like to do my grocery shopping at night.

4. I can't eat reheated meat in the microwave I think it has a very funky taste and it grosses me out. So if I eat leftovers I heat up everything but the meat. I think cold steak is the best.

5. I am a lip gloss junkie I have tons and tons of them I am always buying more to for fear that I may run out. My favorite is the CO Bigolow Pink Mint I love how it makes my lips feel it says it refreshes your breath but I don't think so. My friends all make fun of me because I am always putting it on.

6. I always have to chew gum at work it was my stress reliever I always had to have it I am pretty sure I could own stock in the Cobalt 5 Gum.

7. I never do my makeup in the bathroom I like to do it while watching TV so I always sit on my bed and do it. The only time I will do it in the bathroom is if I am not at my house or if I am at a hotel.

There you go 7 random facts about me hope you enjoyed. I am not sure who all has been tagged so if I tag you again sorry.

Home Sweet Home?

Well I am starting over again. I landed at my destination I still feel like I am on vacation and I don't live here yet. So far its not turning out how I had planned and I have been one very grumpy girl. I have decided that I am going to go back to school. I think with the economy the way it is a part time job and schooling will probably be my best bet. I am really interested in medical billing and coding so I hope that I can qualify for some grants. Its very hard for Single White females to get help believe me I have tired and tired before. This time though I have no job so maybe just maybe I can get financial aid. Keep your fingers crossed for me. I really hope this the right thing for me. I am hoping and praying that I am making the right choices. Everything is very overwhelming right now so I am just taking everything one day at a time.

Goodbye Farewell I Will Be Seeing You

Tomorrow is the big day goodbye Nevada I know I will see you again. I am very sad to leave my wonderful friends my great big Nevada family. Tears are falling hearts are sadden I hate goodbyes. I'm not going to say goodbye Im going to say be seeing you instead. My new journey begins I'm scared to death I hope this is better for me. Wish me luck!

I'm Going To Try To Apply This

"LIFE IS NOT ABOUT WAITING FOR THE STORM TO PASS ITS ABOUT LEARNING HOW TO DANCE IN THE RAIN"

Move Along Move Along

So I am moving I got fired from my ulcer causing anxiety boiling hated it there every damn day of my life job. I am so stressed I have no idea what is going to happen I hope and pray that I am making the right choice. So far my news years is not turning out so great but I am looking at the glass as half full right yeah I have to look at it that way.

I get to start over I get to start fresh I am a blank canvas and its my choice how the painting gets finished. I have to go to get boxes today and pack up my life and move on. I am very heavy hearted because I have meet some amazing people and I am crying as I write this because its going to be so hard to say goodbye.

5 years of my life has been spent here good times and bad tears and laughter. I am scared to death I can't stop throwing up I make bad choices sometimes when I am angry, but it may have been the best choice I have made. Good thing for the Internet good thing I can still keep in touch.

So goodbye Nevada I never did love it here but I did love the people I wouldn't have traded these 5 years for anything. I learned who I am and what I can do so yes I will be fine and yes I will start over.

2009 Will Be Better!

I am hoping for a better year this year. I hope everyone had a safe and Happy New Year I sure did. I am going to try to get my life back on track. Find out who I am and what I want to do. I have some major choices to make and I just want to make sure that I select the right one. I am going to have a better attitude and just go along with the old saying good things come to those who wait well I am here waiting.

I was hoping that by now that maybe I would have met someone I have never been single this long. I guess this time that I am being extra picky I don't always make the best choices when it comes to men so I am trying to learn form that. If anyone knows of any single men that around my age by all means send them my way :).

So Heres to 2009 may this be my best year yet!!!!
