Hey all..
I knew I wasn’t going to write these as often as I should lol. But I guess it’s a good day to start.

Tyler and I are officially home owners! YaY! Its so much fun to have an actual house! BIG improvement coming from a trailer! But I’m kinda sad, I will definitely miss living there. But I’m super excited to have made that purchase! Now we just have to fix it up. It needs some TLC. Carpets, paint, and not to mention a new kitchen. But in time, we will get it done!

I can not believe it’s almost 2010! 2009 went by way fast. Which is a good thing, because it sucked! 2010 better be awesome or I’m gonna freak out! Lol. I have big plans for you, 2010, so you better rock.

1: I plan to start my healthy lifestyle again, and be down to the weight that I want to be. It will take some work for sure, but I am totally willing to do it! I’m going to go on a high protein, low carb/low cal diet. Hopefully it will work. I’ve been thinking about getting gastric bypass, but I would need to pack on some pounds before I could even think about it. But like that is associated with weight loss, there is no solution other than a lifestyle change. Anyway personally I think gastric is cheating. Not saying I don’t think people need it, or that people who get it, are horrible. I just think I am totally capable of doing it myself. With no help from any kind of surgery. (we will see about that come April lol)

2: I plan to start this budget system that will help us get out of debt quick. I know what your thinking, budget = eating saltine crackers and drinking only water. BUT you’re wrong. I have a suggestion for everyone. Pick up the book Financial Peace by Dave Ramsey. Its great. I’ve learned so much from it!

3: I plan to make a Bucket List. My list will consist of things like skydiving, scuba diving, going to Africa, running in a marathon, visit Paris, London, New Zealand, and Egypt. I have a lot of things that I want to do in my life, I might as well make a list so I can have something to check off as I go .

4: I plan to convert a room in my downstairs into a salon, WITH a tanning bed..I have so many ideas of what I want to do with it. I’m way excited! First off, I have to take out a fake fireplace that is in that room. (why would you waste your time making a fireplace if you can’t use it) It’s just a brick wall with a hole in it. Lol. Give me a sledge hammer and I will have some fun with that. Anyone wanna help with the demolition?

5: Fifth and final plan (that I can think of right now) is to get things going with a few home businesses I want to get going. Which, one day, I would like to, lead to me owning my own boutique, which will have a lot of random things, but mostly focus on home décor. I’m way excited for that.



After listening to the new Paramore CD, Brand New Eyes, I have fallen in love, unconditionally, with one certain song. The song is called The Only Exception.

It totally defines me on LOVE…
I was young when my parents split, along with a bunch of my other friends. After my relationships throughout the years and having numerous broken hearts, I questioned my belief in “Love” Until I met my Husband, the only exception. 

When I was younger
I saw my daddy cry
And curse at the wind
He broke his own heart
And I watched
As he tried to reassemble it
And my momma swore that
She would never let herself forget
And that was the day that I promised
I'd never sing of love
If it does not exist

But darlin'

{Chorus}
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception

{Verse 2}
Maybe I know, somewhere
Deep in my soul
That love never lasts
And we've got to find other ways
To make it alone
Or keep a straight face
And I've always lived like this
Keeping a comfortable, distance
And up until now
I had sworn to myself that I'm content
With loneliness
Because none of it was ever worth the risk

{Chorus}
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception

{Bridge}
I've got a tight grip on reality, but I can't
Let go of what's in front of me here
I know you're leaving in the morning, when you wake up
Leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream

{Chorus}
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
[X2]

And I'm on my way to believing
Oh, and I'm on my way to believing


When Paramore comes to town, I’m definitely going to see them. They are awesome!

For now I think I am done. I’m going to try to get some pictures of the house up. Too bad I didn’t get pictures of the laundry room before we tiled it. Anyway, as soon as I get my computer all set up, I will be posting pictures! 

On to the next…
