Where Has the Time Gone? April Already? My Explanation in Photos...
I realized it has been a month since I have last blogged and I am embarrassed. I know that hardly anyone reads this darn blog, but when one of your friends texts you and tells you that you need to blog, you start feeling a little guilty, because I must provide some good laughs of pity for somebody.
So let me explain exactly what caused this hot mess to happen, and why I have put it off so long to come up with a new post.... ( get ready for a LONG long post)
I started to feel a little bit sick, sleeping when I should have been studying, and feeling awful. I just thought it was a cold...
Turns out... I had the flu. Dang it! Why didn't I get that free shot they were giving away on campus?? I also had to run to some dear friends so that they could play mommy and doctor to me...In the meantime, I spread my disease to their daughter....this little cutie... Poor gal.
I skipped class and decided to go visit my parents so that my real mommy could take care of me... she was dog sitting for my older sister, so I spent a lot of time in bed, watching tv, with Leila dog staring at me...
On the bright side, Easter candy is was the bomb.
Eventually I had to go back to school/home even if I wasn't feeling the best. But the weather was nice for a day or two, and then....
It got ugly!! What kind of Pre-Spring Break weather is that??! Yuck.
Some of my friends got married, which of course is always cute, and I love getting mail.
I just had to make some of grandmas brownies during spring break. Who wouldn't??
Then I decided I would spend my entire spring break baking every single day, concocting new recipes and getting chubby. Ok, so it probably did not at all affect my health, but I made these awesome snicker cookies... not to be confused with snickerdoodles. These babies were sooooo good I made them twice. My husband LOVED them. Go figure.
Also on spring break, I got to spend lots of time with Justen, which was much needed. We went on some pretty fun dates. My favorite was going to see OZ, which by the way was really good, and I despise hate sitting through movies because I get so antsy. Also our taco bell date was pretty stinkin cool. HAH! Did you know I have only been to Taco Bell like 5 times in my whole life.? This time I decided to compare the Doritos tacos. BOY were they delicious. Personally, I like the blue, but would totally order one of each if I go again.
Also, my oldest sister is getting married in just about a month, and we all went to one of her Bridal Showers. She got lots of goodies from Crate & Barrell, so her kitchen will be decked out! This is a picture of Me, my older sister Elizabeth and my youngest sister Abby.
HOLD THE PHONE. We finally bought a car!! Yeeeehaw! Seriously, it felt like it took forever to try and find one that we liked/could afford/ was in the state of Kentucky. Talk about a challenge, but everything came together and now we are the very very proud owners of a Ford Fusion. This makes 2 cars for the 2 of us, and Justen is clearly quite happy to have his own car finally.
Easter time means sweet baby chicks at the Rural King (yes that is a version of Tractor Supply) and I love to go see them and listen to them all chirp and talk like crazy babies do.
Justen and I dyed Easter eggs, which he had not done since he was like 6 years old. What the heck is wrong with him? Am I the only 21 year old who has done this every year since birth?
We had a lot of fun though, and made a few teeny tiny messes. haha....
Recently, I have been dying to make some spring things for my closet. So I went perusing at Joann's Fabric the other day, and cannot wait to show you how it comes out!
One of the really cool perks to my job is that I get to go run around town and collect donations at a bunch of different businesses for my school. I actually came across the Oscar Mayer Weiner mobile in Louisville, and could not resist stopping to get a picture and a weenie whistle. Yes, I had to sing the O.M. song to get the whistle and I knew every word. The weather was wonderful this past weekend wasn't it??
So as you can see, the flu + Spring Break + work + 21 hours of class = neglected blog and crazy busy lady. I am just thankful that I only have 4 more weeks of class until sweet sweet Summer! Yahooooooo
