So my life has totally been busy lately!!! I have had a hard time slowing down or keeping up sometimes! Life is starting to finally slow down. We moved in our new house about a month ago! It is so nice to have your own place, that you own! Granted it is a lot of work, but yes it is totally worth it! I will post pictures ths weekend. You would be surprised at all the stuff we have done to the house since we moved in! This place doesn't look the same but I love it just. As much as when we first saw it! The floor plan is what we truly love and appreciate!
We have had AJ's mom and step dad for a visit! I really appreciate all they did to help us on their anniversary weekend! Mark helped AJ do all the wood like tile in the house! That is some hard work! I am a pretty sure AJ will never do that again! But they did an amazing job! He also fixed our water heater and put some new light fixtures in my kitchen.
After they left, we had brand new carpet put in all through the house. I am so glad I do not have to wear my shoes in the house anymore! We are now a no shoes on carpet type of family!
We have painted the master bedroom and accent walls in the family room!
The newest addition to our long list of things that are done: is the tv is now mounted on the wall! Thanks Daddy for your clever ideas!
The dogs love this place! They run through the hallways upstairs and go up and down the stairs. All their bones are upstairs though!
I will post some pictures this weekend!

Diets Suck
This diet is a pain in my butt. I know it is a good thing, but I wish I could eat! lol. Well I am not starving myself. I wish I was loosing weight like my husband. He has lost 20 lbs in 2 1/2 weeks. I am so proud of him but it sucks. I know woman loose weight a lot differently then men. I wish that wasn't the case. All I can do is wish. At least, I am trying. I have lost 5 lbs. My goal for this is for wedding and engagement bands fit again. The weird thing is the ring that I am wearing is the exact same size of my wedding and engagement band. The metal is just different on the one I am wearing (which is actually my promise ring and it looks exactly like my wedding band) then my wedding band and engagement ring. My promise ring is made of all gold so it molds to your finger. My wedding band and engagement ring are made of something other than so they don't bend or mold to your finger. Its bizarre. But my promise ring is getting looser. I am excited can't wait to put those rings back on :) !!!!! AJ on the other hand, is ring is to big now!!! Grr. If he shakes his hand it will fall off. I don't want to buy him a new ring.. His ring can't be sized because its made out of tungsten. I don't want to buy a new one because I love that ring, and it means so much! Hopefully I can figure out something or maybe he can gain weight back into his ring finger. I am so proud of him though! He looks really good. I mean he looked really good before. If you want to know what diet he is on it is the Carb Nite Solution. I am on Vemma Bode'. We are both eating low carbs. AJ is only allowed to have 30 carbs a day except his one cheat day he can have whatever he want for 8 hours!
The diets we are on both require a ton of protein which SUCKS because you can only eat so much meat and vegetables until it makes you sick.. Sick of eating the same things! We both have resorted to having protein drinks in the morning. Premiere Protein Shake, Vanilla from Costco. AJ drinks his straight up. I can't because I think its nasty but he likes the taste. I add mine to Yasso Strawberry and Banana Greek Yogurt Smoothie that I got from Costco. That makes it awesome.
One day AJ and I went to the grocery store to see and read labels on what we could eat/drink. Mostly to see what we could drink cause we were tired of drinking water. He was tired of trying to force down zero anything or diet anything. We found Crystal Light... AMAZING.. Doesn't even taste like diet. I have lemonade, fruit punch (this is AJ's favorite), cran-apple, and strawberry kiwi (this one is my favorite). So try it! Especially, if you think diet drinks SUCK.
I have not had a Coke Cola in 3 days!!!!!!! Which is amazing. First week I haven't cheated and had two or three a week. I can only have one a week on my cheat day. That is definitely the hardest part about it. Coke was like coffee to me. I do not drink coffee!!!
I hope you are having a great week! Thanks for reading! We are now halfway through the work week and soon the weekend will be here, and my PINTEREST PARTY... More about that later!

Hunger Games Stone Cold by China Glaze
Here is one of nail polishes I have, the new stone cold by China Glaze. I also have Luxe and Lush on top of it. Which is also a new nail polish by China Glaze. All created for Hunger Games!
I am excited with my new fetish with my nails! Hopefully I will get better at painting my right hand then I am right now.
I like the look of this nail polish. It is very weird to have really dark nail polish on, but I am wearing black tomorrow.

I am back.
Well it is about time I start blogging again. My life has changed so much... Well it seems that ways.
I am now no longer a teacher at The Gardner School, thank heavens.. That job could of been the death of me! No really. I got to the point where on my way to school and on my way home from school, I was not listening to any music.. I wanted complete silence any time I could get it. I was also always exhausted!
Now, I work for a company called GuyBrown Products. The way I got this job was completely awesome. I went and met with a head hunter on a Friday. Did my testing for Microsoft Office during the weekend. On Monday, the head hunter called me and asked me if they could send my resume to this company who sells office supplies. In that very moment, I start dying laughing. I could not stop. If you don't understand the hilarity behind this situation, here is the reason why: my families company sells office supplies and I have been apart of it as long as I can remember. It is just amazing the doors that God opens for you at the right time! Of course I told the head hunter that they could. They called me that evening to set up an interview for the following morning (Tuesday). My interview went very well. I felt very confident going in there because my whole history has to do with office supplies. The VP of Sales had heard of my families company and actually tried to call them to buy the company out! He worked for a different company then, that is no longer around. Well that night I heard that they wanted to hire me, and it was official on Wednesday. It was fate. I really love this new job. I am so happy and I am listening to music again.
Another thing that has happen is one of my best friend is getting married at the end of this month. I am her matron of honor and have been taking this very seriously! I am so excited to be apart of her wedding! I can not wait to share that day with her!
As of this moment right now I am obsessing over nail polish and nail styles.. I am in need of some China Glaze Hunger Games Collection!
I have officially deleted farmville off my Facebook!!! The whole four farms thing was getting awful it was awful at two.. I am sure they are adding more farms that no one can keep up with. Sorry Christine, I had to do.. I was tired of all the posts.
At the end of February my beloved sister suffered a tragic loss. She was 5 1/2 weeks pregnant and had a ectopic pregnancy. She was throwing up and bleeding. She had to be rushed to the hospital where she had to have emergency surgery. She had two liters of blood pooling in her stomach. She had two blood transfusions and had the tube removed along with the baby. I was going crazy not being with her, but she okay and she is healing. Please pray for her and her family in this time of healing.
