Humpday Confessions

I confess...that Facebook pisses me the hell off. If it is not your 4th cousin, twice removed posting only "Goodnight."....then it's your 2nd grade teacher posting 2,000,001 pictures of her old fat cat. Pleaseeee...Shut your face.

I confess...my hairline is receding. After closely studying pictures of myself from high school my hairline is not in the same place as it was 10 years ago. So does mean I'm gonna be bald by 60!?!

I confess...my last pair of Nikes' were purchased in kids' sizes. They were $45 cheaper than the women's and a size 7 in kids...is a size 8 in women's. BAM! I'm $45 richer...

I confess...I will practice rapping abilities by listening to a song 93 times until I memorize it.

I confess...last week I did some research and got pricing on having laser hair removal on my cookie.

I confess...that seeing Jerry Jones on the ACM's made me nauseated.

I confess...that I feel cool because several of Lane's 6th grade friends and girlfriends want to follow me on Instagram.

I confess...I cut my own hair a few weeks ago...now I'm embarrassed to go to my hair dresser because she will notice I had a true toddler moment and cut random pieces of my hair with paper scissors.

I confess...that I do not put all my makeup on unless I know I'm gonna see someone I really dislike or any of my Michael's exes.

I confess...that I enjoy the smell of fresh paint...which is why I get nervous when they card me for my paint at Home Depot...I feel like they "know" my secret.

Now it is your turn, go link-up with funny lady Kathy for Humpday Confessions!

Also, my girl Lindsay @ Broke and Bougie is co-hosting with Liz @ Fitness Blondie for a Blog Hop.

I really want to have a giveaway soon...but I haven't decided on anything particular so if anyone has any advice, or would like to join me please shoot me a email.

Definitely a Dog Lady.

Well folks...I'm showin' my love again this week by linking up with funny lady Kathy and her man crush Ryan Gosling over at Vodka & Soda. This week I'm going to really try to get down to the nitty gritty of why I am a complete nut case over my dogs.

I would like to take this time to thank Kathy for being the cheapest therapy this girl could ask for each week.

                    Jackie                                                             Scooter         

 -To protect Jackie, I pick up and hide all the feathers of the decent chickens that she has stolen from our neighbors. How white trash and sketchy does that really sound?!

-When Scooter is humping his boy cousins, I tell Lane he is just trying to get a piggy back ride.

-When travelling and we make a pit stop...my dogs will poop...and I don't always pick it up! Free fertilizer, your welcome!

-Scooter is a homosexual and I accept him for who he is.

-If I'm home alone, my dogs go into the bathroom with me no matter what event is taking place. Beeeecause in my head that will be the time a murder will enter my house and break into the bathroom. At that point my fur balls will unleash their inner beast and chew his knees off!

-I find myself sometimes bargaining with my dogs. "Scooter, if you let me sleep 10 more minutes, I'll give you extra Scooby snacks!"

-If either of my dogs stick their tongue in my drink....I don't always get a new one.


-I say "Bless You" when my dogs sneeze.

Happy Humpday, friends!

They Are Better Than This Hot Mess

Happy Friday, friends!

This week for Five on Friday I wanted to share something a little different than the usual inappropriate hot mess that I like to produce. :) Recently there have been several blogs/posts that I have just really enjoyed reading, and wanted to share the awesome ladies behind them with everyone in case you have missed any of them.

But by no means am I implying the other posts or bloggers are just chopped liver. :) I promise!

You all are kickass! :)

I found Holly's blog a few weeks and instantly loved everything she was sharing. For me, I could relate to majority of what she was preaching...her love for food, bargains and making an effort to love yourself whole heartedly!

Be sure and check out her awesome blog!

 Hey, Hollywood

You can find fellow wine lush lover, Amy over at The Crazy Wise Woman telling all the juicy details of her recent dates and raising 3 beautiful kiddos.

If you have not been over to the badass that is Amanda at Voyage of the Mee Mee you are surely missing out. I told Amanda a couple weeks ago that I swear she has to be one of the most open and honest people I know...her honestly will definitely make you die laughing and rethink how open you HAVEN'T been! Haha!

I found Lynsey's blog Eternally Wanderlyn a couple weeks ago and became an instant follower after she confessed that she picks wine over water...I knew right away we would have so much in common just from that sweet statement!

Crystal's blog over at Mason's Mama was one of the first blogs I started following when I embarked on this blogging journey. Is it me or did that sound oh-so professional or whatl?! Anyyywho...it could be that Crystal is pretty much my neighbor...but I think that they are one of the cutest families around. You guys have to go check out their last minute family weekend getaway from a couple weeks ago and you will see what I am talking about!

In honor of Teresa Giudice more than likely going to jail...

Have a FABULOUS weekend, friends!

Mullets, Chopsticks & Aunt Flow

On this windy humpday in Texas I'm linking up with funny lady, Kathy. You can find her being a total badass over at Vodka and Soda. This week I'm confessing a lot of randomness, at the same time crossing my fingers we can all still be friends after you realize I'm not cool. :)

-I fake bake...Mainly because tan fat looks better than white fat! Plus...Michael is Hispanic so if he wants to be darker than me, it takes him a whole 2.6 seconds of being outside and he's darker than me!

-I'm probably hungover...if I am wearing large sunglasses and my hair looks like I was just attacked by monkeys.

-I have an app on my phone that tracks when “Aunt Flow” will be around. Next week if anyone was curious?

-The other day I googled Epic Mullets…So educational.

-My husband called me a drunk last week….he might be right, Lane named off the only beer and wine I drink. 

 But we can’t get him to remember spelling words!? 

-My 59 year old mother is active on Instagram and Facebook...and knows more about Facebook then myself.

-When I was a youngster, I wanted to be a dolphin trainer.

-I am 28 years old and I do not know how to use or read Twitter.

-This week I downloaded not just one but two Limp Bizkit songs. #Iwasntdrunkeither

-I do not believe in chopsticks…I use a fork when I eat sushi. Mainly because when I eat I’m trying to shovel as much food in my pie hole at once and chopsticks restrict my form of eating.

-Sometimes when people drive under the speed limit in the fast lane...I get the urge to throat punch them at their next stop.

Happy Humpday, friends! :) Be sure and go link-up at Vodka and Soda for Humpday Confessions!

Sobriety, Spelling & Snoring

It is probably against all blogging rules to post 2 link-ups in one day but last time I checked, I am a well known rebel so I'm doing it anyways! 

So, for my second post of the day, I am finishing sentences with Holly & Jake. :)

1. I always pick…Yoga pants or leggings instead of actual pants.

 2. Look at the size of those...tree trunks…my mistake, those are my damn thighs.

 3. I recently learned…I snore, like a woman whose respiratory structures are vibrating due to an obstructed air movement during breathing while sleeping.

 4. Only when no one is looking…do I proceed to dance like Beyoncé in front of the refrigerator light.

 5. I lost my...virginity.

 6. I was certain I'd…have a reality show by now; I can guarantee my shit storm is TV gold.  

 7. There is not enough liquor in the world for me to….be a teacher….I have uber respect for you ladies that are, but I would be the teacher on the 10:00 news for bitch slappin’ some smart ass teenager  who tried to disrespect me.  

 8. I just finished... talking to myself in the bathroom mirror at work to see how my face looks while I’m speaking.

 9. Why does everyone have to be...Lame…so what if I got drunk at my 4 year old niece’s birthday party. She didn’t know.

 10. It’s very rare when I...don’t have to google how to spell a word that exceeds 5 letters.

 11. If I were a dog…I would want to be any hot celebrity’s bitch, that way I can snuggle with him and bite any other skank bitches that came near my man.

 12. I don't believe...in sobriety.  -Real talk-

Enjoy your weekend, friends!

Humpday Reality TV Confessions

I have a minor addiction to reality television…..so much that my husband calls me REALITY TV QUEEN in public. That statement is kinda true. But, he just doesn’t get it that I am a better person and wife because of reality television.

-I appreciate and cherish the level of education I have after repeatedly watching Party Down South and Jersey Shore.

- I have more self-acceptance after watching My Strange Addiction and Hoarding; Buried Alive. I mean because gaining 10lbs is nothing compared to living in a house full of 100 dead cats.

- I am more knowledgeable of hunting and embracing my redneck ways after watching Duck Dynasty which lets me relate to him in more ways.

- Wanting lip injections for years and a day I decided they weren’t for me after watching Taylor’s mouth on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills over the years.

-TopChef makes me a better cook-Never mind that is the farthest from the truth. Nothing will make me a better cook.

-I made it through high school without getting pregnant; Teen Mom participants can’t say the same.

-RuPaul’s Drag Race shows me how a queen is supposed to act.

Anddddd....if you have not seen a episode of Mob Wives, I really do not know what the hell you are doing with your life and I feel sorry for you.

Because... 

IT'S PURE GREATNESS.

Happy Humpday! :) Be sure and go link-up at Vodka and Soda for Humpday Confessions!

Five On Friday

Happy Friday!!

This is first time in a longtime that I am linking up with the lovely Darci over at The Good Life, for Five on Friday.

{One}

Last night was Lane’s first junior high dance and the first time the hubs and I were able to help him get ready and take him to something like this. It was such a sweet moment for us. The best part for me was when he got home and told me all about the dance and what all girls he danced with. I swear I could of cried...

 

{Two}

Lately I have been obsessing over shoes, which is probably nothing new; it is just until now that I can acknowledge I have a problem. This week while drooling on my keyboard, I found these fabulous boots! I have always been so afraid to wear an ankle boot but these are so fantastic that I don’t even care if I look like a wannabe country hipster! Told you before I was a rebel!

 

{Third}

I put my 3 week notice in at work!!! Helllll to the Yesss! I guess I should go forward with the dream of auditioning for Real Housewives of Texas because I would be the ideal wife for the show! I am only missing the ridiculous amounts of dolla billz, a closet like Lisa Vanderpump’s and love for drama. But maybe they would make an exception.

{Four}

The joy that comes over me when I find long wine aisles with allll my favorite wines is the same feeling I had when I was 7 years old waking up on Christmas morning. -REAL TALK-

{Five}

My cousin’s fiancée was able to make the drive up to my sister’s bridal shower this past weekend and I just absolutely adore her! She is so much fun and fits in perfectly with our loud and outspokenfamily. I am so glad she is joining our family in May!

 

Thursday Tunes Link-Up

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.

Thursday Tunes Link-Up

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!

Thursday Tunes Linkup

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.

<div align="center">

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!

Someday I Will...

This afternoon I decided to link-up with Taylor for a much needed reminder of things I want to do.

Someday I will...learn to dance like Beyonce instead of Miley Cyrus.

Someday I will...pay off all our debt, we may only be debt free for 24 hours, but by gosh we did it.

Someday I will...go to a Super Bowl and wear a different teams jersey.

Someday I will...build our dream home in the country on a huge wooded piece of property with a pool, outdoor kitchen and master bathroom the size of Texas!

Someday I will...adopt even more rescue dogs.

Someday I will...accept my flaws and stop picking myself apart for the smallest of things.

Someday I will...learn to cook without worrying that I'm poisoning my family.

Someday I will...run at least a 5K.

Someday I will...bump into Angelina and Brad and they will adore me so much that they ask me to become their nanny.

Someday I will...hopefully become pregnant, I know this one isn't up to me but I can still hope for the best. :)
Someday I will...meet Gordon Ramsey and use every cuss word I know. Just because I can.

Someday I will...weight what I did in high school. I know it can be done, I just have to actually workout more than once a week.

Someday I will...own a Birkin bag. Psssh! Fat chance!

Someday I will...get a reality show.

Thursday Tunes Linkup

HELLUUUUR! Good Mornting!

**Madea voice

For this week's Thursday Tunes linkup I'm gonna go over the last 5 songs I have bought off iTunes. Just promise not to think I'm off my rocker for the variety of music I purchased this week, it's pretty random. 

<div align="center">

Jay-Z-Big Pimpin'

Your welcome. No need to thank me for the awesomeness that is this song. Carry on...

Emeli Sande-Next to Me

You can catch me singing this sweet ass tune in traffic as well, because I just freakin' love it! It makes me feel all warm and happy down in my soul, kinda like a Snuggie and vodka/cranberry would.

Eli Young Band-Drunk Last Night

I just had to read the title of the song and I knew I would love it. I'm that simple, folks.
What I do not love is...there is a payphone in this video, first off...I could not tell you the last time I saw a phone booth. Secondly, it shows Mike Eli with a cellphone? Really?!

OneRepublic-Counting Stars

This video is strange. I don't get it.

But am I the only one who finds Ryan Tedder hawt in this video?

Turnpike Troubadours-Diamonds & Gasoline 

If you don't like country or bluegrass this song will not be your cup of tea. But I really enjoy it because it's just a sweet song anddd it's acoustic.

Five on Friday

Whooo-Hooo! It's Fridayyy!

Usually I'm not this excited for the weekend especially when I really don't have shit going on, but for some reason I'm in much need of a break from this J.O.B.

It's been awhile but today I am linking back up for Five On Friday with the pretty Darci @ The Good Life.  

{One} It. Is. Texas/OU weekend. Can I get a hell to the YES?! 

I'm so excited to support from the comfort of my outside patio with an extra full glass of wine, instead of fighting all the crazy fans at the Cotton Bowl and State Fair. The Mr. and myself decided a few years ago we are just to cool old to hangout with the first year college students anymore. -Ha!

I assume I will still wear my UT dress...mainly because the Hubs LOVES me in burnt orange. -Hahaha!

{Two}

It was love at first sight when I saw these adorable duck bookends at Goodwill for $3 bucks! I'm really thinking about going crazy and turning them to glitter covered duckies. 

What do ya'll think? 

{Three}

These $89.00 Steve Madden riding boots! Aren't they uber cute?! I will be purchasing this beauties this afternoon while I'm hardly working at work! 

{Four}

I bought and received this super duper cute makeup bag a couple weeks, but like I said it's been awhile since I've linked up. Anyways, Madi over at Madi May Design custom makes these adorable 

makeup/travel bags in tons of different colors and print combos. Before I ordered I was a little worried it wasn't going to be big enough to hold all my products, but it is PERFECT! I can get everything in it and still feed my obsession for anything chevron print. :)

Check out the Etsy store

{Five}

I saw this quote on Pinterest and thought it was so spot on! 

Sure hope all you beautiful people have a GREAT weekend!

Thursday Tunes Link-Up Party!

Let's be real honest for a second, we all have those few songs on our iPod that we are a tad bit embarrassed to admit that we enjoyed at one time or another.

So this week for Megan and I's Thursday Tunes linkup party I'm gonna reveal the songs that I wish I would have thought twice about.

<div align="center">
<a href="http://kandidkristen.blogspot.com" title="Kandid Kristen"><img src="http://i419.photobucket.com/albums/pp277/Kmckeever23/image-60.jpg" alt="Kandid Kristen" style="border:none;" /></a></div>

Pussycat Dolls-Whatcha Think About That

What is more distrubing is this isn't the only Pussycat Dolls' song on my iPod. Dear Lord.

 

Lindsay Lohan-Over

This is the one I'm probably most embarrassed of, I have no clue what on God's green earth made me decide to contribute $1.29 to Lindsay's addictions.

Eddie Money-Take Me Home Tonight

I'm kinda ashamed of this song but what makes it even worse is I can sing it word for word. Ekkk!

Miley Cyrus-Can't Be Tamed

Who in the hell would have ever thought the girl/bird singing from a giant bird's nest in a music video would hump herself with a foam finger a few years later?!?
But then again I'm the one that downloaded her music so who am I to judge.

Hope errrbody has a GREAT Thursday!

Link-Up Reminder

Don't forget to come link-up tomorrow for Thursday Tunes with your one and only and the gorgeous Megan @ Barefoot and Bluejeans.

Thursday Tunes Link-Up

Hey Ladybugs!

I woke this morning not even realizing it was Thursday because I have been passed out in bed for 3 days straight...how sad is that?!

Iggy Azealea & T.I.- Murda Bizness

The Great Divide-Yesterday Road

Dj Khaled Ft. T.I, Akon, Rick Ross, Fat Joe, Birdman & Lil Wayne-We Takin' Over

 Can there be anymore people on this song?!

For my very first post I'm gonna give ya'll a sneak peak into what I listen to in my car and what ya'll might see me singing if you were to drive by me in Fort Worth traffic.

Closer - Tegan and Sara

This song really reminds me of something Olivia Newton-John would have sang in the 80's...

#Beautiful - Mariah Carey ft. Miguel

Its so darn catchy, plus if I turn it up loud enough in my car, I sound just like Mariah for a split second.

One More Goodbye - Randy Rogers Band

I remember singing this song so loud with my hubby and our friends at Margarita & Salsa Festival in Waco. There's a giant possibility we were tipsy...

Work - Iggy Azalea

I mean we named our foster dog after her...does that not entitled us to some kind of royalties or something? Ha!

My favorite part of the song "This dream is all that I need, cause its all that I ever had."

Applause - Lady Gaga

Not only will I be singing this as loud as my Mariah voice will allow, but I may be dancing. I'm talking about the breaking it down in my seat kind of dancing.

-Do not judge me.-
