What I'm Thankful For...

I'm thankful for...

My contact lenses, without them I would seriously be in public looking like a circus freak with coke bottles for glasses.

I'm thankful for...

being able to go 28 whole years without ever breaking a bone.

I'm thankful for...

My pillows, don't they just make the whole sleeping experience that much cozier? 

I'm thankful for...

 the “we will make anything you like into a vodka flavor” trend right now. 

I'm thankful for...

Reality shows like Extreme Cheapskates and Hoarders, they make me realize just how good I’ve really got it.

I'm thankful for...

The invention of heated car seats.

I'm thankful for...

Hot water, how miserable would showers be if the water was 40 degrees!

I'm thankful for...

Bras, even though some woman in Walmart choose not to wear them.

I'm thankful for...

My hair products that tame my wild lion's mane when I need to be seen in public.

I'm thankful for...

Braces, y'all should have seen my chops before getting them in 5th grade. Believe me when I say I’m grateful for the metal-mouth experience.

Hope all you fabulous people have a great Thanksgiving!

This week I decided to find a few songs that I feel best represent me and my personality.

Bitch by Meredith Brooks did not make the list. If you ask a couple of people it probably needed too...      Fergie - Glamorous Now, I know this is the first song you ALLL think of when you think about me. Hahaha! "I'm no queen, I'm no machine, I still go to Taco Bell drive thru." BEST. LYRICS. EVERRR.  

  Jason Aldean - She's Country Well. I'm country, half the time. It just depends on what day it is, some days I like being a complete utter, beer drinking redneck and other days I prefer martinis and sushi in Dallas Uptown.  Weird.  I know.

  Eli Young Band - Small Town Kid Love. Love, this song! We played this song a lot while growing up in my population 2600 hometown.  

  Randy Rogers Band-Fuzzy This song is a good description for the MANY of nights I've had in my 28 years of age.

No Longer MIA

Hey Hey!

Longtime no chat. 

I have been completely tied up lately and not in a good way.  I feel as though I should apologize but like a fellow blogger told me last week "Life Happens." and she was SO right. So I'm not gonna apologize for my blog being on the back burner the last couple weeks.  I love my blog but my family comes wayyy before anything else. I do feel as though I should explain myself a little because I don't want to come across as a phony and act though my life is all unicorns and rainbows. 

A couple weeks ago my small family unit and marriage were tested in a way that makes me even more thankful for the few awesome people I have in my life. My marriage will always be something I consider a accomplishment so I'm definitely not one of those people who think marriage is easy or something that doesn't take love, hard work, patiences, compromise and forgiveness. My family and I are moving forward from the last couple weeks and look forward to our futures. But in the meantime I'm looking forward to catching up with the followers of my blog! 

Thanks for being AWESOME! :)

I truly apologize for my absence the last couple weeks, I will explain in a post soon. I promise! With that being said things have been so out of whack at my household lately, which makes me want to pull my hair out because I feel as though I need everything organized and planned. So since my life and household aren't running as smoothly as I would prefer, my blog had to suffer. But I am back with Megan and I's weekly linkup so I hope you enjoy what I have been listening to all week.


Eminem-Rap God
Holy. Fuckballs. This song is INSANE.
But in a way that I LOVE.




This is the only song I have been listening to all week so that is why there are no other songs. Haha!

Hey Dollfaces!

Sorry I have been a bit MIA the last week but I will explain that later.

Today is our weekly link-up, so in honor of the CMA'S last night I figured I would go over my opinion of the show.

George Strait & Alan Jackson- He Stopped Loving Her Today

Hands down. Best part of the whole night. Loved this so much, until I see everyone on my Facebook feed bashing "Today's Country". Sweet Jesus People...Pipe down!

Keith Urban & Miranda Lambert- We Were Us

First and foremost. Miranda Lambert looks Fab.u.lous!

Little Big Town- Sober

I had not heard this song until last night, I have to say I LOVE it. Side Note: I have been telling myself for a couple years now that I'm gonna cut my hair off like Kimberly Schlapman but I have been wayyy to scared to do it.

Sunday Social

      1. What is currently on your wish list?  

Isn't she absolutely beautiful!?  I would give a left arm, finger of your choice, right leg,and fat from my ass for this sexy beast.    

I informed the Hubs that I want a Can-Am Commander JUST. LIKE. THIS. He laughed.   -A house cleaner and chef for a year or forever. -Super Bowl tickets -A pallet full of my favorite wine -Rescue all the orphan dogs (And then load them all in my Escalade for rides with the windows down.) -A unlimited gift card to Starbucks     I wish BIG. So what!?    
2. Share a new iPhone, droid, iPad app that you have recently discovered that we all need.

Credit Karma

I love checking my credit score every so often (nerd alert) and this app let's me do it for free...Yes.

F-R-E-E.

Plus, it's pretty darn accurate.

3. What is a new fall TV show that you have added to your dvr? Trophy Wife I'm a sucker (That's what she said) for good 'ol comedies, plus I think Malin Akerman is so gorgeous!

4. Share your social media links so we can follow you. (Pinterest, Twitter, Instagram, etc) Tell us which is your favorite and why.

I heart Instagram more so than any other social media sites.

 My thought is if I'm going to be passing the time with social media, I want to just completely shut my brian off while doing that and Instagram lets me acheive that task, by only sharing pictures and a limited amount of words.

Pinterest

Instagram

Google +

5. What is a tv show, movie, or song that you could watch or listen to over and over and never get tired of?

Friends

During the week, I watch at least 1 rerun every night. The Mr. can't understand why I can watch the episodes over and over again but once I watch a movie, I don't want to see it again for another 5 years.

Hope everyone had a awesome weekend, it rained all week here in my little town but this weekend turned out to be BEAUTIFUL!
