my new bestie!

happy fall y'all.

there i go again with my sweet southern wishful accent!

i mean who doesnt love a girl with a cute little southern twang?!

i swore up and down i was going to keep up with my blogging, so my apologies.
(its apologies to myself, because i know that people are not waiting and waiting to read my posts!)
but anyway, i have been so busy with this little man


whom, i might add is going to get his little boy surgery tomorrow. i am freaking out.
not just like a little, but seriously i am anxious right now
thinking about taking him.

let me tell you this. if you have any stress in your life, feel like you need a bestie, feel
like your pretty much drowning in sadness....

GET A PUPPY!

not even lying. this little man, has brought me so much unconditional love and happiness
i can not even begin to tell you.
he is a living teddy bear.

and the best part:

he is so forgiving.
he doesnt lie.
he doesnt yell at me.
he doesnt scream because he is missing a sock.
he doesnt get mad at me because i left a peanut butter spoon in the sink.

he is outright the BEST thing that has happened to me in a very long time.

now, let me reiterate.
he is a LOT of work.
puppy classes, potty training, etc. but it is SO
worth every last darn second.

he has become my life and has kept my sanity.

thats all i have for you.

xoxo

happy weekend!

hi blog lovies!
happy friday happy weekend!

i wanted to just share something really quickly that i found extremely touching.
in remembrance of steve jobs,
we have been hearing all of his quotes, many that were given during different speeches.
i think many times we become engrossed with our lives that we
trudge along and bypass many things because we are too busy or we are in a hurry.

i have had a difficult past few weeks, but i think i am enlightened by things i come to find.
one of them was this quote/speech given
by steve jobs.

i hope all of you take something away from this, like i have......i have said it before, life is short. too short. make the best of it while you can!

No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don’t want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life’s change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.







Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary. – Stanford Commencement Speech, 2005

rest in peace, steve.
 
love you guys,
have a wonderfull weekend!

fun stuff!

happy tuesday friends!
we are one day closer to friday.
love that.
how is everyone's week starting?
yesterday started out not so great. my cable went out and i could not get it to work......
thus no news in the morning before work!
the news helps me plan
my outfits, my day, etc.

then i forget, something trivial happened and i was like, whooaah. is this really how the
day is going to go??? i quickly changed my WHOLE brain set
and redirected my thoughts into positive ones.
guess what?
it works!
the rest of my day was wonderful.

i ended it with dinner at princess # 2's golf club!
and then i watched the new show,
heart of dixie!
did any of you get a chance to see?
i LOVED it.
i have a special place in my heart for the south though, so that could have been
some of the reason...
just sayin.
rachel bilson is ADORABLE.

anyway, i wanted to share something that i received in my in box this morning.
i subscribe to joy's hope! 
if you are not familiar with her blog, run right over there. it is filled with
a LOT of goodies. but more importantly read her 'about me'.
this girl is just too cute and her story melted my heart.
well, once again, this sweetheart is promoting a
site that was made specifically to help a girl who
needs a heart AND double lung transplant.

it breaks my heart to hear of these situations, because so many times i
think we take life for granted.
please head over


you will find a wide variety of tutorials, printables and ad space available to help support this girl,
whose name is sharlie, btw.

many times we spend money on little things, so take a few mins and see
if there is something you could possibly use! there are adorable prints
for like 5.00 bucks. that's the price of one
starbucks latte.........
AND you are helping a girl in need!

blessings to each and everyone of you!
remember life is short and never take one moment for granted!
XO
