It's SO WHAT Wednesday!

 

This week I am saying SO WHAT if...

• I had a glass of wine last night, even though I said I wasn't drinking any wine until this weekend
• I inhaled ate 2 hot dogs and one double stuffed Oreo at B's birthday party last night. I totally acted like that 2nd hot dog was for H
• Every text I send has an emoticon in it that shit is cool
• I was  late this morning because I spent my time watching Shameless instead of getting ready
• I have no idea what Google Reader is but jumped on the BlogLovin' bandwagon just in case I miss something
• If bribed H to stop crying in the store with candy. It was cheaper than buying her that $25.00 bracelet
•  I put M truck and L's car on craigslist when he just barely mentioned selling it #ourdrivewaylookslikeausedcarlot
• I'm 29 ok 31 and I plan to go to Target at lunch and buy JT new cd. I love me some him
• I carry H's potty in the car when I know we'll be out running errands. Public Bathrooms are NASTY
• The fact that I will be in a swimsuit in May motivates me more to run than my upcoming races
• If I've trained H to "go tell Daddy you want a baby sister" a girl can dream
• My husband get on my reserve nerve sometimes, No marriage is perfect and he works his ass of for us. I love me some him



Can we talk about Phillip Phillips for a second?

 

Every year I say I am not watching American Idol and every year I watch it and get hooked. I really don't have a favorite this year. So far Candice Glover is my pick. The girls definitely brought their A game.  I was super sad to see that they didn't save "Church Boy' but eh, I'm over it.

 

Have you seen our Arkansas Pride?

 

 

Poor kid, he just needs a deep conditioning, spray tan, friend. Something tells me he will not be the next American Idol. BUT he did win the Awkward Turtle award source

 

 

I was super excited to see my boyfriend Phillip Phillips on Idol last night. That boy had me when he sang Home  at Hello

 

 

Adorable

Total T.W.S

Totally on my "No Question's ask list"

I would totally buy tickets and drag Marcia with me to one of his "concerts" which are usually held at random Universities. And Yes I realize I'd be the oldest thing in there. So what who cares.

 

In a weird way he reminds me of my high school sweet heart

 

Can you see the resemblance? HA. K would totally kill me. When I asked K if anyone ever told him he looked like Phillip he acted like I was crazy.

 

 

Have you guys heard his new song? Gone, Gone, Gone

 

 

 

Is that not the sweetest video?

Did you know they still made video's? 

 LOVE. IT.

 

Happy Friday!!

 

 

Dang Cold Weather

My mom asked me bright and early this morning if I wanted to go shopping today. I thought about it and said No, thanks I'm broke I'd rather stay home and clean my house.

What is wrong with me?

 I love Christmas but I LOVE having all that stuff put away.

 I haven't showered yet and it's 3:29 PM. I woke up had my cup of coffee (with bailey's thanks to my sweet husband who now realizes I'm a little more fun with a tiny bit of alcohol in my system.) and started putting the Christmas décor away.

There is something about the end of the holiday's, that triggers  my OCD. I immediately want to: clean the house, go through H's toy and get ride of what usually ends up being 5 toys, rearrange the house, paint something, and pretty much drive everyone insane.

This weather better warm up fast before my husband serves me my papers.

 I chalk up this built up energy to it being too cold to run outside. I just sit inside and drink I mean bake and think of things I want to change in this house. Like the front door. I really think I need to paint it red.

I better get a grip. OR deal with running on the treadmill. I haven't touched the dreadmill in quite awhile and I'm totally not touching that biotch until January 1, 2013. Then it's on like donkey kong. Morning runs, everyday runs, shoot me in the face I only have a few days left until it starts.

I'm a much happier person when I am running. Just ask M, who recently got chewed a new one because he didn't ask if I was ok when I dropped a book on my foot. yep true Hollywood story. girl needs to get outside and run.

Who else is ready for 2013? This girl is!

and just because she's so cute...

yep, someone got a (REAL) microphone and stand for Christmas ...so she can work the crowd...and yes, we are still watching the wizard of oz all day everyday!

Things that make me smile

1.  M driving all 6.5 hours to STL. The plan was for him to take the “first shift” wake me and then I take over. I’m pretty sure I entered Lala land before we left the subdivision and I woke up in my parent’s garage 6.5 hours later. BLESS HIM
2.  Waking up early in my parents’ house, leaving M a “Dear John” letter stating that I was going for a run in Tower Grove Park. Oh running is the best therapy.
3.  Waking my Bestie up with a text that said “unravel yourself from Romeo’s arms, get dressed and meet me in TG park for a run. I totally felt like SR.
4.  Running 4 miles and decided that we’d rather go home and make pancakes and bacon. Not so much like SR
5.  Having a lazy day at my parents’ house. There really is no place like home. And the homemade cookies helped.
6.  Having drinks, dinner and laughing…lots of laughing with friends this past weekend. I now get what M means when he says “my friendsare my family”
7.  H puking on M. Poor baby. Puking in the middle of the night is never good. But when H puke and I was so glad it wasn’t on me. (seriously M is the best dad ever.)
8.  Stepping into H& M. SERIOUSLY LOVE THIS STORE!!!
9.  Getting a “13.1 finisher “necklace from my BFF
10.  Seeing my BFF at the funeral. What a great surprise.She.Is.The.Best.EVER
11. Getting all the “thinking of you”, “love you guys” you’re in my thoughts and prayers” messages from friends and family.
12. Having brunch at First Watch with my sis and Maryann
13. Wine, Wine makes me smile a lot
14. Running, Man I love  runing
15. Seeing Devin this past weekend.
16. Knowing Linda is at peace and out of pain

Tuesday Thoughts.

 

 

I finally made an appointment with the “Dr. Feel good” as M likes to call her.

 

 She LOVES to hand out any and all type of prescription meds. She’s great and came highly recommend by Samantha.

 

My hip has been jacked up since October. She gave me two options A. Game over and I should shut it down and send me to the Glue factory or B. a high dose of anti-inflammatory

 

Of course I took the meds

 

Ugh. I don’t mind  “vino veins” but I’m not a big fan of meds flowing through my system.

 

We’re trying it for a month and then she recommend a cortisone shot.

 

UM NO THANKYOUVERY MUCH.

 

So, basically I paid $25.00 for her to tell me I have beginning stages of arthritis and inflation.

 I’m in the wrong business.

 

“Dr. Feel good” was telling me how her daughter is running the Little Rock Marathon. She said she didn’t want to put on the “freshmen ten” so she sign her McDonald’s eating butt up for the marathon. WOW who does that? I’m impressed.

 

I planned on taking December off to rest and shove my face with delicious fatty foods but I just can’t.  I really feel the need to run. Not so much far but I need to run for my sanity. Plus it gives me a reason NOT to do the INSANITY Work out. Who brought that mess into my house? That is no joke. I barely made it through the witness test.

 

 

Next topic up for rambling...So why do I feel the sudden urge to take a day off work to clean my house? Not that I live on Nasty Lane but things need to get done I.E laundry, dusting, finishing Christmas decorations and Cleaning out my DVR while drinking wine definitely counts as house cleaning. Right?

 

Last topic of Rambling.

My Husband.  I love me some him. Bless him for putting up with my mode swings, OCD, long runs, student loans, random diets, and my no sleeping with a fan on rule.

 

And just because she's so dang cute, here's a picture of H. Can you tell she's my child!

 

 

Three Things Thursday

1.

I'm home with a sick baby, a baby with a fever a teething toddler. Bless her heart. She had a 101 temp this morning. I'm chalking it up to the 3 I-Teeth that are ALL coming in at once. I noticed some coughing and sneezing but I chalked that up to cheap perfume. The sitter called me just as I finished coffee klatch at the office. I wasn't really feeling work today anyway. So she didn't have to tell me twice.

 

My little sweetie is running a fever but you wouldn't know it. So here we are eating popsicles and watching Brave. Which is adorable watching with a 2 year old. She keeps say "ooh...Amazing"

 

When M gets home tonight and the house is still a mess and realizes its take out for dinner I'll tell him I was too busy blogging giving H tender love and care all day. When duty calls...

 

2.

Let's play. "Guess Amie's Race Time"  It all comes down to one race. All this hard work, all this training, all the nights of trading beer & wine for water... wait that never happened. My goal has always been to finish in under 2 hours. That was before the "Granny Hip" kicked in. Now I just want to finish the race. I'm scheduled to see a doctor after the race to see what's really going on. Until then I will rely on M and his "professional advice" and BIO FREEZE .  So after the race we are headed to Beale Street for a girls night out. I'll be the one  wreaking of menthol wearing my compression socks. YEP My Milk Shake brings all the boys to the yard!!!

 

3.

Despite everything that is going on right now. I am feeling very blessed. Going to STL for Thanksgiving was just what I needed. I got to spend some great time with Marcia, Jaimie , Renee, and I tried to stalk Stacey but she was too busy popping out a 9pound adorable baby boy (congrats). I absolutely love these girls. Then family came over and we laughed and drank wine while looking at black Friday ads. Seriously there really is no place like home. It was great to get away. It was even better getting home to M.  I no longer wanted to dip his toothbrush in the toilet. It's amazing what a few days away from each other will do. I kid. I kid

Anyway that's a few tidbits of my crazy life right now. Wish me luck this weekend!
