Stay Tuned...

Sorry for my absence this weekend...but the bathrooms are about 90% finished with the remodel, so we are busy cleaning dust off EVERY surface in our house and moving my stuff back into my closet from the 18 different places it was in the house :)

Before and after pictures coming soon...promise!

Friday FAIL.

I just went to 7-11 to grab a Diet Coke (sweet nectar of life), and decided on my way to the checkout counter to grab a roll of Mentos (recent obsession).

If you don't know why this is a giant FAIL, watch the following video:

Thankfully, I remembered just in time.

Cars: A Brief Family History.

I've loved cars ever since I was a little girl...probably why I eventually ended up working in the car business (much to my parent's horror :)

I always named my cars, and considered them part of the family...kind of like a motorized pet or something.

With that, I present a brief family history:

Snowball / Bessie ~ 1999 - 2002

This was such a cool car to have as a teenager - I loved it like a precious little baby... until it died a horrible death by throwing a rod through it's own engine (no one told me I had to get the oil changed on a regular basis???)



Zippy ~ 2002 - 2005

Zippy was sweet little car... but I had a bit more need for speed :) At one point, Jen, Steph, Tshirts & Tiara's and I all had the same car - just in different colors!

Zippy is now living a gentle life of retirement with my Dad, who washes her regularly and never exceeds 40 mph :)



late 2005 - 2006 ~ Brief Interlude in Vehicle Ownership
I sold cars for Infiniti for about a year, and drove a company demo...the red sedan had a permanent rattle, the white sedan that I hated, the silver coupe that was super-dangerous because I exceeded the speed limit on a regular basis... you get the point :)

The Silver Bullet / Speedy ~ 2006 - 2009

Leased when I left Infiniti, this was definitely the nicest car I'd ever owned... and I loved the heck out of it!

However... SB/Speedy is being turned in this morning to make room for the newest member of our family...



Introducing..... the car that doesn't have a name yet :)
Yay, thanks Newlywed Husband, for getting me a car with navigation (for the new j-o-b)!!! And in black - so chic!



I need your help in deciding a name - and keep in mind that all my cars are girls - I've never had a boy car and don't intend to :)

Current Time...

2:19.

T-minus 2 hours and 41 minutes until I get to go home and start putting all of my clothes back into my closet (I just have to find them in the 18 different places they've been languishing during this nightmare bathroom remodeling business).

Yay.

Update: Just got home and only 1/2 of what was supposed to be done today was actually completed on the BFH {bathrooms from hell}. Forget original plan of working out followed by exciting move back into closets/normalcy. New plan: watch Real Housewives re-runs and drink wine.

The Completely Out-Of-Place Outfit Post.

Yes, I do realize that it is summer.
Yes, I do realize that 98% of you would never be caught dead in all-over sequins.
Yes, I realize that I have absolutely no upcoming events that merit the purchase of this dress.

But I like it. So there.




Thoughts?

Big Surprise Coming...

perhaps an addition to our family???

Breakfast of Champions.

Could it be worse? Not by much.
