Hey Lovies, I'm Back!

Hey Lovies!
 I'm back!
 
But this time I have a purpose.

I'm starting a new healthy lifestyle and I want a place where I can record my adventures in healthy eating!

I know I'm going to have a thousand questions, and a place where I can vent, or cry (especially on the days when my co-workers decide to bring in brownies) So any encouragement or recipe suggestions you may have are always welcome!

<3 I'll be doing my first REAL post later today!

Farewell Summer!


BYE SUMMER!

And no, I don't feel even the slightest bit sad about it.
I'm beyond ready for Fall!
I've got all my nice smelling fall spices out, I've aired out my sweaters, and I've polished my boots!


That doesn't mean however that I didn't have an amazing time this Summer:
Lets Recap!




Sailing With The Love of My Life and Amazing Friends:


 

Going to see Tim McGraw and Kenny Chesney!

Needless to say this Summer was fun but I'm ready for new adventures and new experiences!
Especially those that involve bonfires and hoodies!
PLUS CAMPING!

Brown Hair Don't Care


I'm a blonde.
I was naturally blonde until I was 16.
Then I just became a lighter shade of peroxide blonde.

When I turned 20 I decided to give red a try....

then black...


then brown...


Then Blonde Again...

   


Now this past week I was so done with my hair, and I have the worst Hair envy imaginable...truly.
Everyone has better hair than I do, mine is dry..miserable and hateful.

I decided to dye my hair brown again for a nice lil change and lemme tell you...I already hate it.
Its just not the vibrant brown I had so hoped for...instead it is dull and mousy.



ugh. I will never be happy with my hair.



What are your suggestions lovely readers?
Should I pull a Britney and shave it off?

It is for blogs with 200 or less followers, so it’s also a great way to spread the word about smaller blogs and get them more readers and followers! When you receive the award, you post 11 random facts about yourself and answer 11 questions from the person who nominated you.You pass the Award onto 11 other blogs (make sure to let them know they were nominated) and ask them 11 questions.

Work Day Wednesday:
Fall Work Day


Today was the first time it actually felt like Fall!
I love waking up with dew on my car, and the air smelling crisp!
Randy is probably going to kill me because I keep putting fall decorations up, but I just can't help it!
I'm addicted to all things old ladyish.






UPDATE: Okay I literally started writing this post at 9:00AM it's now 2:22PM...I got swamped at work and it just was up on my computer all day.

Good Night lovies!

ME ME ME

What would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail?
If I knew I could not fail I would probably open up a Scrapbook store, I love everything about the Hobby, and if I could find a way to turn my hobby into my career I'd probably be the happiest woman alive!

If you had only six months left to live, what would you do with the time?
If I only had six months to live I would probably spend it with my family and friends, and I would set aside a day for each family member and each friend, just for them. A day where I could love them and just be.


If a front page news article was written on you, what would the headline be?
Crazy woman freaks out on plane.

What is your biggest pet peeve?
My biggest pet peeve is ignorance, in today's modern world it is far too easy to educate yourself on the going-ons!

What is your favorite chick flick movie?
Oh man....
PRINCESS BRIDE!
DO I EVEN NEED TO SAY THIS.
