Day 11 – What’s in your makeup bag?

I actually have a ton of makeup! It may not seem like it cuz i rarely wear it. (Just don't see the point. The only people that see me are my coworkers and my kids and honestly I don't think they care what i look like.) I don't give myself that much time to get ready in the morning so I have just enough time to slap on some foundation and maybe some eyeliner, mascara and eyebrow color. But most days it's just the foundation that makes it. On special occasions i go all out and use everything there is out there, but that is few and far between so meh. haha! I probably should do more just cuz, but I have lost the will to care what people think of how I look...............sometimes. haha! So yeah that is my makeup "story".

Day 10 – A photo of your favorite place to eat.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE to eat here:

They have the best fish and chips and the BEST peanut butter cup shake. YUMMY!

Day 9 – A photo of the item you last purchased.

Sorry these days aren't all together, i keep forgetting. Yesterday I bought the Hungry Girl 200 recipes under 200 calories cookbook. i am really trying to lose this weight. So far, it has not been cooperating so I guess starving more is the answer. :( Heres a picture of the book:

Day 8 – A song to match your mood.

Yeah i know, I keep forgetting a couple days so I am just going to keep going with the order instead of trying to catch up and figure out where I should be. Ok so this one will be tough cuz there are so many songs for how I am feeling in a day. I go all over the place with my mood every day but i will try and pick the one that fits best. It's "Telephone" by Lady Gaga and Beyonce. Here is my favorite part of the song cuz it explains exactly how I feel sometimes at work when I just want the phone to stop ringing!!!

Stop callin', stop callin', I don' wanna think anymore
I left my head and my heart on the dance floor
Stop callin', stop callin', I don't wanna talk anymore
I left my head and my heart on the dance floor

Stop telephonin' me
(Stop telephonin' me)
I'm busy
(I'm busy)
Stop telephonin' me
(Stop telephonin' me)

Day 7 – Your dream wedding.

My dream wedding is something I never got to have. I did get my dream hubby though! My dream wedding would be magical and beautiful. Lots of flowers, lots of nice dresses, lots of friends and family and LOTS of laughter and kisses. I don't really know how to describe it. I have never gotten the chance to really plan my dream wedding so i wouldn't know where to start. Our wedding in Aug. 2000 was small and simple. We didn't have a lot of money and didn't have many friends or family that approved of us getting married so young so we had maybe 40 people come. I had a beautiful dress, that in no way will I ever squeeze into again. My aunt did my hair and our colors were blue and white. We had a small cake with a mouse cake topper. (I was obsessed with animals then) haha! Here are some pics.

Day 6 – A photo of an animal you’d love to keep as a pet.

I want a Tiger as a pet. They are beautiful!!

Day 5 – A photo of yourself two years ago.

I haven't changed much in 2 years but here ya go.

Day 4 – Your favorite photograph of your best friend.

These are my best friends.....I can depend on them, and love them unconditionally and never have to worry about them talking smack about me behind my back..........so far......haha

Day 3 – Your idea of the perfect first date.

My idea of a perfect first date is the one that me and marty had on our first date. lol. We were going to the sweethearts dance and he came in a sexy tux and opened the door of the car for me (his moms van) and we went to Little Caesars to get a pizza (before they had the already made pizza waiting for you) and while we were waiting for it we went to the smiths next to it and got some pepperoni cuz I LOVE pepperoni by itself and we hung out for a couple minutes. Then we got our pizza and went to Purple Turtle to eat cuz our best friend worked there (Sherry!!!). After that we went to the dance and cuddled and danced all evening and when he took me home he kissed me! Oh yeah! I was in heaven. lol. The next morning he dropped off a heart shaped box of chocolates at my door. I think I fell in love right then. (I may have left out a few things but it's been 11 years so I can't remember everything:)) That's my idea of a perfect first date!

Day 2 – Tell us about your job.

I work at a software company and people call in for help on either how to do something on their computer or to have the techs fix an error or problem. I am an operator. I take on average 200 calls a day and on busy days it's more like 300 calls. It is pretty stressful at times but a great job. It pays good, i love my coworkers, and I get to work with marty. I am very grateful for it......when i am not super stressed and just want to go home. haha! Sometimes we get extremely rude people call in that make your day go to hell and I really hate that and some people are really really dumb and make it hard to help them. But again, it's not too bad. So yeah. That is my job.

Day 1

Today has not been a bad day actually. I was all nervous about it because it is still year end at work, but after the initial tons of calls coming in for a couple hours it slowed way down and I actually have time to breathe and relax. I am so grateful for the break. I am also grateful for the dr. who told me that I should eat more then i was allowing myself to so I don't feel like i am starving constantly. Yay! Also I went through the weekend with TONS of opportunities to drink Mt. Dew and I didn't!! So I have been (Mt. Dew) sober for 10 days! Thats the longest i have gone without my precious dew for several years! Very proud of myself, pat on the back for me. haha!

With that decided...........

Thanks to my wonderful friends who have made me realize the true intent of this blog and that it doesn't matter if you have no comments, I still want to keep it up cuz it's fun and I get to update whoever reads it on what is going on in life. Right now, I would call this week Hell Week. It has seriously been the hardest, most horrible week ever. It was year end at work and that means every single dentist office calls in for support which means endless calls, super stress and LONG wait times. It also means getting yelled at and insulted for hours from people who expect a professional but they cannot act like one. Added to that stress is me going on yet another diet and trying to be healthier and not eat things that are bad for my body so that leaves a whole lot of stuff out that I cannot eat like my precious Mt. Dew. I realize I have a serious addiction to it so i am going to think of it like alcohol addiction and not even let myself have some on the weekends. It is no more Dew for me. It's very very sad. But all the weight gain I have been dealing with and everything else it's getting to much to deal with and so I need to start taking control of life and make it better. I saw my dr. yesterday for advice and she is referring me to a dietitian. I just want to be healthy and actually feel good and have energy. It is really really hard and I just want to eat. I feel so hungry and I hate not having my fav foods. But it will be worth it. I feel so emotional though. I seem to cry constantly from everything coming at me at once and it's so overwhelming. i am hoping it slows down in all aspects so that i can finally chill. Marty is the best hubby though. All he has to do is give me one of his famous "marty hugs" as I like to call it and I feel instantly better. Everything is better with marty around. He just makes me so happy and he puts up with my weirdness and stubborn nature. Just seeing him makes me feel so much love I can't describe it. He is such a good guy. I feel so blessed to have him in my life every single day. I am very grateful for my kids too. They are the best and I love coming home to see them everyday after work and get big hugs and hear about their day. I don't know what I would do without them to entertain me. Ok, I will not mush anymore. Gotta take more calls..............sigh*

Stay here?

I am still trying to decide whether to keep this blog alive anymore. I don't really feel like anyone reads it and there's no point anymore. If you want to see this stay up and going, comment on it. Show me the love.
