Oh the weekend.

We had a fabulous weekend that started with getting our hair did! I am so grateful to have a dear, sweet friend that colors my hair on the cheap. She also cuts E's hair perfectly which typically hasn't happened in the past by other hair dressers. Is that what they are called or stylists?

Anyhow, I can now wear my fro down without being self-conscious about my roots being terrible! I really just need to bite the bullet and see T every three weeks...I am in denial.

We were out most of the weekend which was a-ok with moi because I get tired of the normal lay around and feel lazy on the weekends.

Our weekend in Instagram Pictures:

We have cameras at Rita's and finally were able to get them working again on our phones. Creepy, eh?

Front of house

Meet Ice Guy. I love mascots! We are going to be attending the UT Mascot Basketball game, so he was practicing. :)

 Oh heavens! Found this on Pinterest and it is delish! Peanut Butter and Nanner French toast

 Black and Tan anyone?

 Black and tan gone? Of course.

My fav- Miss Stella.

Sunday we attended a Super Bowl Party, but I didn't take any pictures, Lame.

Lovely weekend and I am sad it's Monday. Come. On. Friday.

Confessional.

Thank Heavens it's Friday.

Confess away, dolls.

1. I really ate two Snickers bars this week for lunch. I made it okay because they have 280 calories and I didn't eat anything else until dinner. Disgust? 

2. I only went to the gym once this week.

3. I am lusting over a pair of Tory Burch flats and just might buy them without telling E until he asks about them...of course.

4. My gray is so bad on my roots that I have worn my hair in a pony tail the past four days.

5. I didn't have anything for the maid this morning, so I had to visit the Dollar General at 7:45am.

6. Do you shop at the Dollar General? I totally just admitted that I shop there...only for cleaning supplies and tampons. Cheap, Cheap, Cheap.

7. I told E that we wouldn't be going out this weekend since we spent a few hundred dollars last weekend, but I am aching for drinks with friends. Alchi? I think not.

8. I listen to the Rihanna song, "We Found Love..." over and over and over and over in my car. I am pretty sure I sound JUST like her. 

9. I have an Old Navy V-Neck tee obsession. I have one in almost every color. Problems.

10. I will be eating my heart out on nasty-greasy-fattening food on Super Bowl Sunday after I go to the gym...of course.

Happy weekend!

Texts from Last Night.

So-I have a great group of girlies that are dear to my heart. I have a couple besties here in the ATX then I have my seester bestie that lives in Houston. L and I have seen each other go through a lot! Divorce, sicknesses, boys, college, failing grades, abusers, moves, I do's and the list continues. BUT, this little ole lady loves herself boys which I love because I can live vicariously through her (sort of...). 

Our text convos are hysterical. 

Texts from last night 

moi is in blue:

 They send pictures to each other all day long like sixth graders since they aren't dirty, fo shame.

I cannot help but laugh: Zee Germans are coming, Zee Germans are coming!

(this went on for a good hour)

I am loving.

Ah- It's Wednesday and my boss is gone. I love my boss, but I do love the uninterrupted work which I will have for a whole 10 days. Angels singing loud and clear!

I am loving that I made this Southern Living dish and let me say it looked just like the cover recipe with the cast iron skillet and all. It was delish!

I am loving this picture I took of sweet one-eyed Marley after his bath.

I am loving that I was dying for wine, so I stopped to buy some and told the lady I didn't need a bag because I would just use my cup holder. She probably thought I was an alchi...on that note, perhaps I am? I kid. I kid.

I am loving that someone must think I am a total slob because after a company email went out I received a personal email regarding my work area. It needs to be cleaned up. Oops.

I am loving these Pinterest Words of Wisdom for the week...

Damn, my butts gettin' big.

We had a lovely weekend that was filled with sunshine, food, friends, booze and an engagement. 

I swear I gained a hundred pounds this weekend. Problem. It started with a little something I made from Pinterest. I try to make a crock pot dish every week because it's easy and pretty much cheap. It was the Italian Chicken dish over pasta. DELISH!

I chose low fat ingredients: 1\3 the fat Phildelphia cream cheese and Healthy Select Cream of Chicken soup so at least it was semi-healthy. E loved it too and that is really hard to come by when it comes to crock pot meals. Is it bad that most things I pin are food items with recipes? Fat girl problems. 

On Friday, we went to a new local spot called Lucy's Fried Chicken. It didn't disappoint. There were six of us, so we split everything and headed to do some more drinking...what else would we do on a Friday?

Saturday was filled with a hangover, laying around, cleaning up the house and getting ready to become spies. 

We started with a cerveza rita...yummy! Don't you want to dunk your head in that glass? I do.

Once 6pm came around, we hauled bootay downtown because my brother in law was proposing on Congress. We wanted to see if we could catch a glimpse of the whole thing and perhaps get it on video. That didn't happen, but he did see E standing on the street corner after he had done the proposal. Awkward. We decided we wanted to crash their dinner congratulate them, so we headed over and bought some champagne for a toast. On our way, we stopped and were standing on the sidewalk when all of the sudden the parking meter began to spit out quarters! Say what? E immediately went into the market and bought a lotto ticket. 

Sunday was a day of rest, grocery shopping and working out. My butt is getting bigger and that shiz has to end right away. I absolutely could live in the sauna. Give me Enya on Pandora, a dim light, a towel...Relaxation!

It's a new week filled with doctor's appointments, organization and working out. 

Thoughts on Thursday.

I am wearing the beloved H&M Grandma sweater today that everyone and their Mom or Grandma owns. I want to rip it off because I am itchy, WTH. 

I am a gazillion days late for my period, but not pregnant. I am grateful I made my annual appt for next Tuesday because this girl needs some questions answered, STAT. 

I sold some purses to a lady at my office and immediately, actually before she even paid me, bought the gold watch I have been lusting over the past month. My beloved ToyWatch has to be put to rest as it broke and this is the perfect replacement. The bracelet that looks like wood is actually Barbadian coral that is hand crafted from a candle and coral. Loves it. I get asked so many times where someone can buy one? In Barbados is always my clever response.

E and I are supporting Girl Scouts around the globe with the purchase of cookies. Shortbread only have 120 calories for 4 cookies, ain't that bad? 

I am trying to read Hunger Games, but cannot seem to get into it. I hope the next few chapters will open my mind to finishing not just the first book, but the whole series.

Today was "wear your hair in a bun" day and my hair was frizzy, so I put lotion on my hands  then proceeded to run my fingers through my hair. Now my head looks a little shiny. FAIL.

Thank Heavens tomorrow is Friday!

A bone to pick.

On my NYC trip with my Mom, we did a lot of shopping. I mean, we hit up every single H&M store in NYC and almost every single boutique that had weird shit. I loved it and I had one motive: Buy a pair of Steve Madden tall boots that I have been swooning over the past 6 months. 

My mission was accomplished and my sweet Mom bought them for me.

Well, let me tell you- I am pissed. I wish I had a twitter account with 16M followers like the Bieber so I could bad mouth the boots and Steve Madden. I have had them since NOV, don't wear them every day and a piece fell off the heel yesterday. The rubber has holes in it. I contacted the store where they were purchased a whole two months ago and they directed me to SM directly; SM directed me to my local SM shop. I am not giving up! The boots weren't cheap, but obvs not really expensive, but they were over $100 and I will fight till I get a new pair. 

Off my rant.

Look- isn't that upsetting?
