Confessional Friday

Sad Sally over here... Bare with me as I go through these with ya'll...

1. My bike got stolen last night. My locked bike. That I have had for 15 years!
2. I quit my job. Yes, on March 28, I will officially be done. As in no paycheck, no health insurance or a 401K
3. I got a call about my new job. I will just leave it at that.
4. My dads truck was stolen
5. My dog died
6. Brother personal issues.


These past 2-3 weeks have been hard! Not joking... When it rains, it pours... I am just really needing some good news right about now.

Now go and appreciate your bike, job, your dad's truck and your puppy. :)

Happy Friday! Enjoy your weekend!

Wedding Wednesday!

Ok.... Where shall we start!!

Let's see... We have exactly 185 days till the big day. That may seem like forever but let's be real. It's 6 months from now almost to the day! EEEEP!

Yesterday, I got my shoes in the mail. I ordered them online with a 'test run' in mind. Meaning, if I absolutely hated them... Just return and try again. Well, to my surprise, I actually loved them! They are actually a replica-design of the Bagley Mischka Wedding shoes I wanted. See Below

And these are the ones that I purchased. Which I have to say, I think I might actually like better. Especially, the price tag!!!

They fit really well and look sooo cute. The flower on top is a perfect little touch. 

I am thinking of getting sparkly flats for reception? Any thoughts? Unnecessary?

Weekend Recap!

Hello lovies

It's Monday, and I am dreading this work week. I want it to be over and it's barely started at all. This could be do to the fact that I have a pending new job in the works. (Can't get too excited about it yet) and I am just currently in a plateau of blah with my current work assignments. Any one else feel this way?

Saturday, we spent it at the vet making sure Sir Champsky was feeling ok. Turns out, he has an ear infection, allergic to fleas? (allergic? like really?) and needed to have his butt glands cleaned. Do not google that last part. It's horrific. lol Andy and I ended our vet event with TK Burger and relaxing at home. (Yes, it was like 74 degrees on Saturday in Cali - be jealous, be very jealous hehehe)

My parents and Andy ended up going to Lucielle's BBQ for dinner on Saturday and boy was it delicious! Let it be known, I love the south... if I could get up and move to a more southern state, I would. I love the idea of living in Lexington, Kentucky or just outside Nashville Tennessee.... ahhhh to dream....  but southern food including watermelon ice tea! mmmmmmmmm

Sunday, we spent time with our friends and their 2 year old. We went and saw the Lego movie.... Ladies, it's so good. I loved it. I am a fan of animated movies, especially pixar, and this was right up there with the best of them!

Forecast for the week!

- Tune Tuesday
- Wedding Wednesday
- Photo-shoot on Friday!

Confessional Friday - Post #2 for today!

I think I just need to watch a good pixar movie....

Also, I know I usually only post once a day, but I just wanted to join in and do the Confessional Friday Thang.

So let's get with it shall we.

1. I confess that I have a mound of clothes next to my bed that my fiance is getting very tired of seeing. (He likes clean. like alot) I will clean it up when I get home... maybe. LOL

2. I confess that I am terrible at listening to voicemails. I know this is true for lots of people. But I am bad. I think I have 32 voicemails that haven't been listened. Just text me people. Or call and I will call you right back.

3. I confess that I need to eat more leafy greens. Just feel blah lately... I need more kale, spinach or red leaf lettuce... anything.

4. I confess that I am overwhelmed by the wedding. That's a whole post in itself!

5. I also confess that I am in dire need of cleaning out my car. I am pretty sure I have about 4 pairs of heels in the trunk.... and a bathing suite... and human trafficking training dvd's.... Please don't judge.

6. I confess that I am really, really ready for warm weather. I know, I am from California and do not really get a winter anyways... but I am ready for sun, swimming and being at the beach!

7. I confess that I get pretty dang sad on Friday nights when my fiance works really late. He's in a scary profession and when he works late, I worry more. I read books on coping with this... but it's still difficult. I am suppose to have a schedule already set with activities... I hope this isn't come off pathetic.

8. Last but not least, I confess that I have cried ohhhh about 5 times this week. like sobbed. and I rarely cry.... le sigh.

That's it ladyloves!

For real now, have a wonderful weekend.

Yes, yes yes! It is Friday

You know how some weeks just feel absolutely too long? Even though this week I had Monday day off, I still felt as if this week last forever. It was terrible. It also could have been that I had lots of work meetings and just feel quite overwhelmed about life including heartbroken.

My puppy of 15 years passed away the other day. Yes, our beloved Meatball... She was the prettiest, most loving black lab you'd ever meet. She would play hide and go seek with me, lots of kisses and bark at cats. I loved her so much, but I know that she is resting peacefully and not hurting anymore. But I just miss her. Alot.

RIP Maya Meatball - January 31, 1999 - February 19, 2014

"Oh Maya Meaty whatta Meatball"

Nothing too crazy planned for the weekend. Probably quite a few projects for the wedding and resting. I need to sleep. lol 

Have a wonderful weekend!

As promised! Cupid Panty Party

I know on Mondays, errr Tuesdays or whenever my week begins I usually do a recap of the weekend activities. Today, I wanted to recap on the Cupid Panty Party that I hosted at my house for my girlfriends, 17 girlfriends.... It was amazing... Let's just say, I have the best fiance that not only helped me get ready, watched our crazy bulldog while the party was going on... but also helped cleaned up. Amazing man, I tell you.

Our apartment isn't the biggest, we like to think it's because we live a block from the beautiful ocean. So I am quite amazed that we were able to fit this many girls inside my house. This was after a few cancellations as well! 

Just like a white elephant gift exchange, we gathered numbers, tore them up and threw them in this bag Skye had... Then everyone that brought panties grabbed a number 1-17.... 

About an hour later, lots of giggles and stealing back and forth of panties, we all had our new goodies! 

Snow White panties were just a few of the cute ones that were presented!

Mandatory picture of all of us putting on said panties. Clearly we are victoria secret models.

I love valentines day! All decor was on sale or purchased at the 99 cent store. Let's be real girls, you can have a fabulous party and not spend too much mulla! 

Skye made chocolate martini's and we had other munchies that ladies brought. Overall, one of the best get togethers we've had... total success!

Oh and we played the movie "Valentine's Day" in the background and Taylor Swift on my baby Juke box! 

Weekend Recap!

Here we are! Another Manic Monday! Today, I will be driving down to San Diego to give a 2 hour presentation on human trafficking with one of my grad school besties, Crystal. We just happen to go to USC together and work in the same field. Excuse to hang with this gal is fantastic idea to me!

Friday -

Once again, Fish Camp... I feel like a post should be done on this place, but it's just heaven. Here's a few pictures for reference. Mom, Dad and I went on Friday night again. I always get the swordfish, zuccini and fries. mmmmmm.

Saturday morning, Andy and I went to breakfast at our favorite, well maybe my favorite breakfast place... Old Town Cafe in Seal Beach. It's so good and the people that work there are so friendly. I just love it. Oh, and I was woken up with this beautiful surprise! Lucky girl, I am!

All pink ;) I think this would be gorgeous for the wedding! 

I then had my cousin's baby shower on Sunday. I attempted a diaper cake. never. never. never again. Too labor intensive I believe. It was so cute having Andy help me roll the tiny diapers though. My cousin loved it and I had a great time with my family. 

Sunday night, I was pooped... Fell asleep on the couch, watch a wee bit of Olympics. We had pizza for dinner and before we knew it.... passed out asleep. 

Great weekend in the books if you ask me, nothing too crazy.

Things coming up!!

- Two(2) photoshoots!!!

- Cupid Panty Party (This weekend!)

- Valentine's Day celebration!

Have a great Monday everyone!
