Here is my picture!

This picture I put up because It's my inspiration.

Inspiration to stick to my diet, 

and that it is possible to be skinny{er} again.

15 facts about me:

1: I am 5'6!

2: My natural hair color is light ash blond. Eww.

Its nasty and I will NEVER let it grow out. EVER.

3: I am a licensed Cosmetologist! that LOVES hair and makeup! :)

4: I HATE fruits and vegetables. 

{good luck dieting eh?}

5: I have 11 Brothers and Sisters {including blood, step, half, and in-laws} 

& I love every one of them like they were my real brothers and sisters. 

{I don't even call them step, half or in-laws}

6: My husband and I have been together {Dating + Marriage} for 6 YEARS!!

7: I am probably THE MOST self conscious person you will ever meet.

8: I USED to use permanent marker for eyeliner. HA..don't do it..it burns lol.

{Let me explain about the permanent marker thing.

I could never find an eye liner that was black enough. 

Everything turned out gray so I was sick of it.

But turns out, it IS bad for you haha. DON'T DO IT}

9: I seriously get SO IRRITATED when people chew loudly, or slurp. 

I just don't like to hear people eat or drink. 

It grosses me out. SO I make sure that I don't make any noise when I eat! :)

10: I LOVE to play sports. Softball and Basketball especially. 

11: I am going to be starting school soon to be a school teacher!

12: I have been in 1 physical fight ever, in jr high. It was pretty bad. 

But I didn't lose. 

13: I LOVE to go camping. 

14: I want to go skydiving one day. Hopefully this summer!

Okay everyone, 

Its time for you to play along! 

Leave me a comment and let me know if you are 

playing and I will come and check it out!

Oh and TOMORROW! I am going to be doing a post on Hair Secrets!! 

So make sure you come back for the second day of the 

30 day challenge AND a HAIR POST!!

A whole lot of blah, etsy, and MAKEOVERS!

 My apologies for the lack of posting lately. 

I've just been feeling blah lately. 

I have

• No energy

&

• No motivation

I'm still really bummed about the weigh in this week.

I don't know why I keep allowing that to get me down,

but it is what it is.

Although its been quite depressing around here,

I do have some things that I am excited for!

1-     I’ve been talked into getting an etsy site. 

So I made one. 

Now I just have to fill it with stuff, Lol.

I have a bunch of ideas swirling around in my head.

My full functioning shop will include.

• Beanies & Head Wraps

• Jewelery

   -Cabochon Rings

   -Sterling Silver Necklaces,

   -Sterling Silver Bracelets

   -Sterling Silver Earrings

  

• Home Décor

   -Vinyl Lettering/Decals

   -Wooden Signs & Letters

   -Subway Art Displays

   -Decorative Glass Boxes

• Digital Stuff

   -Custom Announcements

   -Printables {like subway art}

   -Photography

• Clothing

   -Onesies

• Wedding Veils

2-     For Christmas the in-laws gave us hard wood flooring to go in the kitchen. {there is carpet in there now..SICK I know.} 

I want to re-do the kitchen so bad. 

I have to give you the scoop on our kitchen. 

Its disgusting.

EVERYTHING is painted in there. 

And when I say EVERYTHING, I MEAN EVERYTHING. 

The walls, the COUNTERTOPS, THE OVEN, THE STOVE! 

And guess what…they’re all painted the SAME COLOR!!

Oh and not to mention the bathroom, 

the siding on the outside of the house,  

AND THE FREAKING FENCE!! 

That paint must have been on clearance or something. 

So my house has that same peachy, tan, nastiness EVERYWHERE!

Not to mention the electrical issues. 

{There are 3 different lights with different switches, in the kitchen. Just look!}

Please don't paint everything EXCEPT the cabinet doors the same puke color..

Please don't have 3 separate lights with 3 separate switches...idiots.. PS AND learn how to paint hahah. See that spot? LOL.

Scary Oven! {that is painted}

More of the Kitchen. & Titan, wondering what I am doing.

 It is dying for a makeover.

3-     Same with the bathroom. 

{I don't have pictures of that one yet}

Even the ceilings are painted that disgusting peach color.

I am going with the bathroom makeover first. 

It will take less work. 

What I want to do is make it into a beach theme. 

When we went to Oceanside last summer, my family got 

me some really cool shells while they were scuba diving! 

So I want to use them!  

I want to have brown and a light blue and white for the colors, 

and get bead-board to go half way up the wall. 

The bathroom is really small so we can’t overdo it.

But I also have some ideas for decorating too. 

I’m way excited to show you guys!

I am hopefully starting on the bathroom this weekend and I will be putting up before and after pictures!

What....is....on....my....phone!!!

As you all know, I LOVE link parties!

Today I am linking up with THE LOWE FAMILY NEWS

Speaking of dogs.

Congratulations Kali!! 

Will be emailing you a form to fill out, then I will get started!!

Since I liked doing a give away so much, 
think I will do another one soon!!

No good very bad day, & some awesomness!!

I am SO not having a good day today.

I was late getting up, thus I was late to work.

I forgot to bring my lunch to work.

And just now, I was in the bathroom attempting to 

put on some makeup so I don’t scare my co-workers. 

I had just got done going to the bathroom 

 and I had the water running. 

 {Some weird thing I HAVE to have the water running} 

So anyway I forgot to turn it off and I was putting 

my bronzer on and it fell in the water. 

THEN as I was hurrying to get the water off of it,

I pushed my whole makeup bag in. 

Yep ALL OF IT.

I had to dump everything out and literally POUR the water out. 

Now my eye shadow brush is soaked so I can’t finish my makeup.

Wow.  

AND on top of that, I’m really, really discouraged right now.

My weight loss is at a halt. 

And it’s really stressing me out. 

I really, really want this. 
I want so badly to wear what I want to wear. 

Be able to wear leggings and boots,

and those long sweaters with big black belts.

I want to cut my hair as short as I want it and not be 

afraid that it will make me look like a fatty.

I’m just not having a great day. 

{Could you tell?}

But on another note, Look at these!!

I’ve been working on these for a little bit.

It’s in memory of my ♥Aunt Michelle♥ 

{My FIL's {Father-in-Law's} twin sister} 

who passed away a few years ago. 

My FIL is going to take them to the 

state and see if we can get any of these options approved. 

You know when you get one of those specialty license plates, 

you have to pay some fee to go to whatever it is? 

All the money will go towards Breast Cancer Awareness! 

How cool would that be! 
Everyone cross your fingers for approval!!♥

Right this second...

 I came across this post just now from

Lindsay over at Scenic Glory!

What a fun thing to do! 

So I am playing along!! :)

Things that are going on "right this second"

eating/drinking: A giant glass of water. Eating nothing! :)

listening to: Michael Buble, he is so hot. Lol.

pondering: Where I am going to find a cute little hope chest thingy to fill with my favorite memories. {Head over to Little Miss Momma to see, it's the cutest thing EVER!}

wearing: My Favorite Silver jeans, a hoodie, and tennies! {Very boring I know}

anticipating: Getting off work. I HATE work. I just want to make things all day. If that could be my job, I would love every minute of it. Cheers to getting my business up and going.

baking: Since I am at work, I'm baking zilch. but when I get home I will be baking Chicken! YuM!!

reading: Nothing right now. I wanted to read Harry Potter again, since I have become obsessed lol.

loving: That I get to go home to a fabulous husband. He is so wonderful to me. AND he puts up with my crap, that's a plus right?

buying: Nothing for a few days, we just paid a ton of bills. BUT Monday is a different story :)

Now, it's your turn to play! 

Let me know if you are playing and I will stop by! :)

HOO'S GOT TALENT?! HOO HOO...HOO HOO! Link for GIVEAWAY TOO!

Hello Lovelies!!

I'm linking up with Leslie over at 

Today I am showing my 

FAMILY SUBWAY ART

I am TOTALLY OBSESSED with Subway Art!

This is actually my first attempt in making something this big! 

{it measures 19in X 27in!!}

I started with a blank sheet of MDF {Meduim Density Fiberboard}

Then I primed it, and painted it black. 

I spent about 2 hours designing and making 

sure that everything was the right size, then 

I cut the vinyl out at work with our industrial sized plotter, 

usually used for signs for businesses.

But I use my time and my vinyl, so it's okay! :)

First I used some spare vinyl that I had left over 

from a project I did a while back.

Got it all on there and stenciled. 

Pulled the stencil off, and it ripped the paint off!! 

OH NO!!

So I had to start over, using a better primer, and less tacky stencil vinyl. 

I adjusted just fine because it turned out great! 

I am really happy with it! 

It's going to look perfect on my mantle! :) 

{of course not all alone like in this picture!}
