Tried and Failed!

HELLO!!

So yesterday I informed you that I was working on something for my house.

So I could take a picture of it and show you what you will be able to win if you win my giveaway. I had it all primed, painted, sealed and all that jazz and I went to finish it, and I guess the sealer I used so the stencil wouldn't pull up the paint was bad or something. Because this is what I got...

Yep..the stencil took the paint off...WTH?

Now I have to sand it down, go get new primer and re-do it. 

LAME!

Oh well! :) 
It should be done tomorrow, 
then I will be able to do my GIVE AWAY! 

You lovelies DONT WANT TO MISS IT! 

Today I learned that one of my good friends had her baby!!
I am so excited for her! 
I am in the process of making something for her as well! 
I have so many things to make right now!
But I love it. I will have to show you guys when I am finished.
Its another thing that I want to sell one day! 
You will have to let me know how you like it!

Don't forget to stop over at Diaries of a Fed up Fat girl today and see the result of my

SHE'S ALIVE!!

Hello blog world.

Sorry I have been AWAL for the last week. I have been having a really hard time on my diet and on top of that I got sick this weekend and it was NO BUENO! I haven’t been THAT sick in a really long time. I am just writing one intro post right now for both of my blogs because I am on a short break at work. Now, if I had and IPHONE, I could do it from there…lol. But since I don’t, this will have to do till later tonight. 

{KEEP WISHING}

Wow…that is all I can say. 

There are so many things that I have to get done this week I could pull my hair out. Like I said up ^ there I have been SO sick. So, sorry for the lack of posting. But what can a sick girl do? I’m so lucky that I had Hubbs to help me. I don’t think that chicken broth ever tasted SO GOOD. 

I’ve been sticking to but really struggling with my diet, but I am really happy with the results I am getting. I can’t wait to show everyone tomorrow in Weigh Myself Wednesday over at Fed Up Fat Girl. Although It’s so tough, I think I just needed to get used to not eating as big of portions, AND no carbs or sugars. That part sucked. I don’t even want a cheeseburger anymore, I just want a nice and healthy turkey or tuna sandwich!! BUT, it’s not on my diet so I am going buck up and stick to it. Its just till I get to my goal weight and then I will be able to eat what I want again, but make healthier choices of course! 

I am PUMPED! I can’t wait to get to wear what I want.  

NO MORE HOODIES! Hahah. 

Seriously that’s all I wear right now because I feel like it hides more. 

But I also look like even fatter than I am haha. So it’s a lose lose lol.

I have figured out what I am going to do for a giveaway! You guys should be excited. Its going to be SO CUTE! 

I am going to actually start selling them on etsy too! 

The thing is, is that I am making one for myself right now, so I will have an example to show to everyone, and be able to post the pictures up on etsy, as well as my facebook boutique! 

I should be done within the next few days so sit tight. 

And just to let you know, these will be selling for $50 {not including shipping} So you’re not going to be winning something stupid I promise! I am super excited to be having my first give away, and I hope that you guys will tell your friends about it!!

I’m sorry to say that is all I have time for right now, and my apologies for not having any pictures or anything. I will post more tonight or tomorrow!!

Things about little 'ol me!

1. One day I want to meet up with the girls whos blogs I follow.

I think it would be so much fun!!

2. I think I was destined to be a racecar driver. I REALLY REALLY LOVE to drive fast. Which is {one of the reasons} why I traded in my 6-speed 6 cylinder for an automatic 4 cylinder. {But I love my Betty White anyway J}

3. I have a GIANT family. 

Between blood brothers, half, step, and in-law siblings I have 12! 

Zach, Mindy, Conner, Lance, Talon, India, Mandi, Morgan, Alex, Adam, Brian, and Brittney! Good thing we draw names for Christmas lol.

It doesn’t matter if they are step, half, 

or whatever they are all brothers and sisters to me!

Love you guys!!

4. I am going on a diet in T-2 days! 

I am going to attempt to lose a little over 90 pounds!! 

You can follow me over at

5. I really really REALLY, HATE Mazda 3's. {sorry if you drive one lol} People, well, girls in Utah that drive those are THE biggest batches 

{my new word for B*t*h} on the earth.

6. I HATE shopping now. I repeat HATE shopping. 

I used to LOVE shopping, but since I've gained weight..I don't like it. 

SO here's to me succeeding on my diet and becoming skinny again eh? :)

7. I also believe that I was a dancer in another life. 

Anytime an awesome song comes on, I always think of really sweet dances. Don't judge..lol..I know I'm a weirdo!

8. I have been married for 2 1/2 years. 

Have no kids {yet} but I have a Great Dane named Titan! :) 

& He is my baby!

9. I love to play video games with my hubby and brothers, and my best friend Smash over at Fit For Life  

{she just started her blog by the way! Stop over and check it out! So I wont be the only one jealous of her awesome bod! I'll get there one day!}

10. I'm pretty well-rounded. {literally speaking too...lol}

I love doing hair and makeup {Tutorials for hair and makeup coming soon!!} painting nails, getting pedicures, and getting all pretty and pampered. 

BUT I also like getting dirty too! 

Things like mudding, hunting, shooting guns, and camping are just as fun. 

I grew up with 2 brothers so I know how to hang with the boys, when girls just piss me off. {Went to hair school...got a little TOO much girl time.}

There are some things about me! 

Hope you enjoyed!

XOXO
