These are my confessions

Disclaimer: I meant to post this yesterday but I forgot. Kinda like I forgot to do the thing this blog talks about again today too. AHHHHH!

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

The hubs and I don't want kids.
(right now)

Hence my problem:

I am the worst birth control pill taker there is.

Surely I am not the only idiot out there that has a habit of missing one.. two... maybe even THREE days of pills every week or so. HOW do I do this to myself? I always end up taking the missed pills as soon as I realize I missed them and the same thing happens every time. I want to DIE from the worst sickly, gross, painful, bloated, cramped, shit that is happening to my tummy. I have done what the box said about take 2 at once and then 2 the next day to catch up on whatever number you missed BUT if I take 2 of those pills in the same day I get the death feelings.

I know, I know, you're thinking "stupid biatch- switch birth controls, go get the shot, shut the hell up" whatever it is its my blog and I whine if I wana.

Every month I get my visitor I let out a sigh of relief and send a little love up to the main man for sparing me once again.

We CAN wait to have children!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That sick feeling has kept me down today. I feel like poo and I DID NOT want to go to the gym- but I did. Go me! It wasn't a stellar workout but it was better than not going at all. I've been kinda unmotivated this week and I don't know what exactly did it to me but I'm forcing myself out of it starting Saturday. I'm getting new kicks to boost me even more and maybe even some new running pants/shorts. I did an easy 2.75 miles on the elliptical then massive amounts of arms/monkeybars/squats today. I just started the squats and DUDE it KILLS these legs - loooove that.



What new workouts are you doing that you love?

Mirror, Mirror, on the wall...

One of my favorite things that I did for my wedding was getting all of my amazing bridesmaids their gifts! I really wanted my present to them to be something special, not just a bag with their name on it, or jewelry that they were supposed to wear. I wanted them to get this gift, something that they could have for their rest of their lives in their homes (hopefully) and when they saw it thought, "ah, Terri gave that to me when I was in her wedding" which would hopefully bring back great memories of a fun time together. That's the emotion I shoot for when I buy someone a present.

 Granted sometimes I'm lazy and you will get a candle from Bath & Body Works. Opps.

Anyways, the idea for their presents came from a mirror that I had made years before out of on of my Grans antique picture frames. See, Gran used to be a photographer and IS a hoarder (for real she could be on that show. Minus the trash - she ain't trashy.) so she has hundreds of antique, gorgeous, one of a kind picture frames. Everyone always comments on my mirror and I thought, "hey, that would be an amazing gift that I'm pretty sure all of my bridesmaids would A. Like, B. Use, C. Keep" so I enlisted my Gran & Mom to help.

The first step was BEGGING my Gran to let me have 9 frames. (Shes a HOARDER, she wanted to keep them.) So, I held back the whole truth and told her I was going to sell them and make her money. My mom totally went along with this because she thought it was a great way to get rid of 9 frames!

Long story short: Gran allowed this and she helped me put wire on the backs so they could hang. This was a really fun time with her and makes me miss her so much. We used to do all kinds of things together and this was one of my favorite bonding times with her. I need to be a better granddaughter and go pay that gorgeous woman a visit.


Yes, that is Red, Shag, Carpet.

Yes, those are wood paneled walls - Is that a bald spot?

Suggestions? Comments?

It's time for TTT again!

It's Tuesday once again and I have sucked at blogging this weekend. 
Here's a little run down before some more crazy info about yours truely:

Friday - Got off an hour early from work (SCORE) to head to Jackson for one of the hubs gigs

Yes, I wanted to be extra cool and throw up a sideways deuce.

Why he gotta be flyer than me in those raybands?


We are re-dunk-u-lous

It was a really fun show mainly because all my family and friends live in Jackson and come out anytime Chad has a gig up there. It's always a blast when the place is packed and Chad does well. My precious nephew worked hard selling CDS that night which earned him a little extra dough for the bowling game this place had that he fell in love with. Gotta love those youngsters.

Saturday- Hubs had another gig in Hattiesburg on Saturday (he's a hussler baby, and he just wanted you to know) Things happend. People were seen, drinks were drank, food was ate.
Here are pictures to explain:


Our futures are so bright my camara can't handle it.


Bottle of wine #3 & evil Walk me down #2


Hubs and Harvs making those pretty sounds.

Then Amandas boyfriend took the camara to get a picture of us... needless to say these are what followed... hmmm no picture of "us"




Thanks Jeremy!

Now, a quick TTT before I head back to work:

1. I am obsessed with prison. In college I took criminology and we actually went and toured a prison in MS. It was the scariest/coolest thing ever. I love watching Lockup and Prison Wives... Really I'm obsessed.

2. I work with 20 men/boys/children/perverts. They are all insaine but I love them dearly. It makes work much more intersting.

3. I do not turn my air condition off in my car before I turn it off. My husband goes INSAINE over this and HATES that I don't turn off the hair first, put the car in park, and then turn it off. Hello, WHY would I turn it off when I want it on immediatly when I get in my car. He says it will make my car live longer. I call BULLSHIT.
