Happy Tuesday!!  Ugh these last two days have been quite eventful! Yesterday was a crazy day at work and a long one, it felt like it at least and then today this happened... Blew a tire on my way to a stor today in the pouring rain. Handled it like a champ, got somewhere safe and called AAA. Amazing I freak out of the littlest things and stuff like this I handle so calmly haha. Anyway my day was shot after that, so I took a half day, got the tire fixed, a big old 100 to fix it, had lunch with Bubba.. Publix subs are amazing by the way and then I did a little Target and Big Lots shopping. Here are some new finds I came across and some I bought.. I had a taste of the tropical one!! Delicious!! It says it is a 3 step one day renewal! I'm going to give it a try, not sure if that's all I consume in the day, I'm going to have to look into it! But this step is exclusive to target! This made me laugh!! I rea...

As many of you know, Coffee is my spirit animal! I love everything and really anything with coffee. I have a whole coffee area in my apartment and a collection of coffee mugs, that may or may not be getting out of control. I need a whole cabinet for them at this point. I used to drink my coffee as Light and Sweet. Or as some down here in the south say, Extra Extra. Light and Sweet was an up north thing. Light and Sweet meant it was with some cream, as light as can be and sweet, where you were getting a layer of sugar on the bottom of the cup. Yes, I would literally be drinking liquid sugar at some points. Looking back on it now, it was very gross, but hey you learn. Then when I would make my coffee at home I would pour almost a half of a bottle of Coffee Mate creamer into the mug. The coffee to creamer ratio was very limited. Then entered Weight Watchers and my creamer days were measured, literally. I know measure out my creamer opitions and try to stick to the Fat Free or Sugar ...

I got my second Stitch Fix and I was very excited about it. This one was defintely a cut above the last one, but some items were still quite familiar. I didn't purchase anything in this one again, but because I think Stitch Fix is a bit expensive for me. BUT what I do love about this, is it gives me some super awesome ideas and I can go and find it cheaper somewhere else. I know that sounds bad and not the idea, but I have bills and still want to look good :0) I loved this shorts right away when I saw them in the box, the only thing was the belt looked adorable in the box, but on, I just wasn't loving them. I think it wast the matieral. But I will be looking out for something like this. As you know I am picky with pants, but I have been loving straight leg A LOT. These remind me of Old Navy's Pixie Pants, which I have a pair in black, I got for a 1.00, YUP. Told you I am cheap. I loved this color too, they were comfy and actually fit me quite well, but for 98...

Okay so this happened last night on Grey's Anatomy!!! DEREK DIED!!! Now, you know I love me some DVR time and Grey's has been one of my all time favorite shows, BUT this, well I didn't see this coming and the rest of the world didn't either. I was a mess last night on the couch. I am a huge emotional person anyways and throw this into the mix, I'm treating this like it was a family member. I have seriously watched this show since the beginning, religiously. There have been some I missed here and there, but I know every episiode and everything that has happened. I was devestated. People were going crazy online too with this. But can we just say it made for great T.V., sure it is the main character and for 10 seasons all we ever wanted some for Meredit and Derek to be happy and they FINALLY were and now this. Where does it go from here??? That's kind of the exciting part, thats what will keep me watching. I mean this shakes up the whole show. I am not th...

Oh man it has been a few days since I have written a blog post. So very unlike me, I apologize. Life just gets in the way. But this week, I have to say has been going off with out a hitch. Courtesty of my selfie stick* Sunday night we went over to some friends house for dinner. They just moved into a new place and right around the corner from us. We had a freaking blast. It is a work friend of James and I finally got to hang out with the guy's girlfriend, whom I can tell we will be fast friends, which is always great. They treated us so well, he made us steak, corn on the cob and potato salad and bananas foster for dessert, like legit bananas foster. I mean anyone who can cook for me, like that, is good in my book. We got home super late that night and I had to be up early for PT, which ultimately after I got home from PT, I went right back into bed just to relax, I was exhausted. Worked a closing shift  and that was I wrote that day. Tuesday, nothing too spec...

Haven't done one of these in a while, nice to catch up. Current Book: I purchased a couple of Groupons recently where for 5.00 you get a 10.00 credit through Barnes and Nobles for the Nook. I have a Nook and bought 3 of them. Due to this I have been looking for new books to read, going through lists I have made, etc. My great friend, Nanci and I have a make shift book club lol, not really, but every time we read something good, we let each other know. Nanci is the best at suggesting books, I just finished two recommendations from her...     &   Both great books and totally different from each other. Sneaking Candy is a fun, guilty pleasure, quick read but VERY entertainging and The Girl On The Train is fast paced, intense and a lot like Gone Girl. Each book, I couldn't put down and read very quickly. Now, I'm startin tomorrow A Dog's Purpose.. Current Music: This song is on repeat over and over.. I just love the message and everything t...

Today was a colorful, Fun Day!! My BFF Jen and I won tickets to run the Color Me Rad Tampa 5k race. We ran this race, last year and the year prior. Last year I won tickets and asked her to join me, the same thing happened again. We are lucky and so grateful to participate in this fun race. Normally, the race is in May, this year it was a few weeks earlier, which it really did make a huge difference in temperature wise. It was a gorgeous day, blue skies and some breeze. With me being still a bit injuired and Jen hasn't ran all that much, we decided to take this race nice and slow. To be honest, it is a not a race you really run, it isn't timed, or is there a medal, it is just about getting together and having a really great time and getting color bombs, gel and spray all over you. I, started the morning in my typical fashion with a selfie... Wearing white is always the way to go with this race :0) Jen and I met at the mall in Tampa and drove together. It is alwa...
