not really sure what day it is...

hello friends! i'm not sure if i should count this as day 26 considering i've pretty much taken this week off. it has been one of the longest weeks of my life. there is just so much going on that its hard to even think straight. monday will bring a new week and new outfits. i got lazy and stressed so 50 days of cute slid to the back burner. tonight is girl's night with the best women i know. i'm making brownies and looking forward to eating them. :) they make my kitchen smell glorious! i really need time with these ladies. i'm sure i'll do a lot of talking, and listening, and laughing. maybe even a smidgen of crying, but hopefully not. you can't be too sure though when you get a group of gals together. on another note, the husband and i meet with a recruiter tomorrow. why? my husband is joining the reserves. or maybe even going AD (active duty). either way, i will be somewhat of a military wife. i will be alone for 8 weeks while he is at basic training. i will have to write him letters like its 1940 or something. i guess it will be a fun addition to our story...

day 23...

wait...where's day 22? did you miss me? well, the truth is that i didn't want to blog yesterday. i really don't want to today either, but i figured i would just so you know what's up. yesterday was a rough one. thinking back, i'm not really sure why. i would have been able to tell you yesterday. i know i had some break down over our washer. long story short, we are currently on our 3rd new washer in a span of a week and a half. today hasn't been much better because i've felt sick all day. i think i know why, but i'm not a hundred percent sure. don't get too excited...i'm not having a baby. hopefully. anyway, when you feel sick and are on an emotional roller coaster, blogging just isn't on the top of the list. i did dress somewhat cute today. maybe i'll get the energy to upload and post the picture soon. please don't hold it against me if i don't though. tonight the husband and i were going to go out to eat and run by target to buy a movie, but considering my current condition, we aren't. :( hopefully tomorrow will be much, much better.

day 21...

is it really day 21 already? sorry i didn't come back yesterday with the photo. we got home a little later than i thought, so carl took the picture and i was off to bed. here's day 20...

today the hubby and i slept in, had coffee, went to strawn's for yummy food and pie, made a trip to michael's (yay!) and just enjoyed each other's company. i'm starting to get a headache, but all in all...good day.

hers and his :)

day 20...

hello friends! happy saturday! today will be filled with fun things and i really should be getting ready. my first stop is the grocery store to pick up a prescription. then i'm off to my parent's house to get the last bit of my junk. hopefully i won't come home with too much. the apartment is about to overflow with stuff. actually, neither of those things sound that fun, but then i'm off to my lovely friend kate's for a craft day. my goal is to finish (or mostly finish) a painting that i'm doing for our living room. i'll be back after church tonight with the 50 days of cute picture, but right now i leave you with this...

i got this from one of the kids at work. the creepiest valentine i think i've ever seen!

day 19...

dear friday,

you have finally arrived! i'm glad you are here and i've enjoyed your visit. do you think you could talk your friends saturday and sunday into staying a while? i'm not a big fan of that monday guy. thanks! i love you!

today has been good. work is over and the weekend is here! the only sad part about today is that i found out my car insurance is going up instead of down! those crazies at state farm! i'm getting a discount for being married, but losing my multi car discount...and car insurance is more in shreveport than haughton! anyway, i was a little out raged since i thought i would be paying less. i'm sick of everybody and their mama wanting more of my money! ok, ok...enough of my rant. let's get down to the reason you're really here...

due to technical difficulties, a picture is not available at this time. we are working as quickly as we can to fix this problem. thank you for your patience.

here's a brief description of the outfit...

teal boyfriend tee...target

gray hoodie...old navy

jeans...american eagle

chucks...converse.com

day 18...

today was much better than yesterday. i felt really cute and got lots of compliments on the dress. target never lets me down. :) after work i went to ross and found a comforter for our bed. i've had a hard time finding one that i really like for a price that i was willing to pay. i got it for only 24.99! i was excited. it was an epic search. the plan for the rest of the evening is to hang the curtains the bedroom. i'm so ready for this apartment to feel finished!

dress...target

brown tights...target

boots...target

bangles...forever 21

the lighting was a little off this morning, but you still get the idea. it was definitely another target day. i should probably give some new stores my money instead of target and old navy. see you tomorrow!

day 17...

50 days of cute took a dark turn this morning. i woke up way before my alarm (5:15). i couldn't go back to sleep, so i crawled out of bed at 5:30. i felt good and awake so this didn't bother me too much. i made lunches and took my time eating breakfast. i took a shower and then proceeded to pick out my outfit for the day. sometimes i do this the night before, other days i do it in the morning. i picked a cardigan out of my stash. it had a hole. crap it. i picked out another one. it had a hole, too (and no, i don't have moths). what the heck? by this point i was upset because time was running out to get ready and i had no clue what to wear. a few minutes later i find myself on the floor crying. not just a few tears either. crying and throwing a fit like a baby. my poor husband. he did the best he could to comfort me. i was a mess. a hot mess. to make a long story short, i went to work with no make-up and stretchy pants. i cried so much that i ran out of time to get completely ready. how ridiculous? as i poured my coffee i looked at carl and said, "i've broken all of my rules". i guess i'm taking this more seriously than i thought. i'm sure i care way more about this than any of you do. it was a rough day. i guess if you are a female, you can understand. i'll have a picture tomorrow. promise.
