It's been a while

I have not posted in a while, sorry.  I am flying back to B'ham tomorrow and I am sad.  I am sad to leave my family here in FL.  I miss them so much, but I am so grateful that I got to spend this week with them.  I love you mama, Gma, Sean and Peanut! 

Sunday we went up to my brother's college to watch him play in a fall ball game.  I know I have said this before, but I LOVE watching my brother play baseball.  He is awesome.  Here are a couple pics from that. 

Tuesday was my 30th birthday.  My mama took the day off work, so me, her and my grandma went shopping.  We had a great time!  My stepdad made me a special dinner and my mom baked and decorated my favorite cake...red velvet!!  It was awesome! 

Wednesday I drove down to south Florida and saw my aunt and cousins.  We had a great time!  It was great to see them.  I also decided that since I am starting this new chapter in my life I needed a new haircut.  My great friend Jill who cut my hair for years had an opening so I went.  It was the best birthday present EVER.  I love my new hair.  My FB friends have seen it, but here it is!

I am still trying to get used to not having hair on my neck! 

Today Maria came over from Orlando and met me for lunch.  It was so great to see her!!  She is so sweet and beautiful!  We had a great lunch and great conversation.  I can't wait to meet up with her again! 



I am excited for Saturday.  My dad, me, Mary Catherine and her husband are going to the Alabama v. Ole Miss football game.  We are going to have a blast!  Pics will be posted after the game!

Sometimes you get what you ask for

I have been wanting to go down to FL for a while to see my family and some friends.  Since I just got back from Chicago I didn't think I would be able to until the holidays.  But my dad told me today that we are going down on Friday!!  I am so excited!  He and I are driving down this Friday, he is driving back on Monday or Tuesday and I get to fly home next Friday.  I get a whole week down there!!  I am very happy I get to see my brother play a double header on Sunday!  I am happy I get to spend my birthday with my family and friends.  This makes me happy.

Better Outlook?

I am really trying to have a better outlook on life right now.  I am not succeeding very well at this moment.  Things with Joe are at an all time low.  He is not making this process very easy and I just feel so overwhelmed with it.  Also, a week from today I will be 30.  I am not handling this birthday very well.  I know I have a choice to make the best of it or not, but I am just feeling depressed and everything with Joe, it is just hard.  Sorry I am bitching, I just had to get this out. 

I had an awesome lunch and afternoon with Mary (a fellow blogger) yesterday.  We met up for a late lunch and then did some shopping!  She is so sweet!   We are going to an Alabama football game together in a couple of weeks and I can't wait!!

Chicago Pics

Well, here are some pics of our awesome BOOBS Chicago extravaganza!!  Considering that between Kristen and I we took almost 1,000 pictures this is all you are getting right now because it is hard to narrow it down!  :)  Enjoy!

5-0

And I don't mean the cops!!  I am officially down 50 lbs!!  It feels great and I am so ready to lose 50 more! 

I am still working on getting my pics up here, should be tonight or tomorrow.

What an awesome weekend!

This past weekend in Chicago was positively amazing!  I am so grateful that I got to meet and spend time with some wonderful women.  I am still trying to recover from our whirlwind weekend!  I am trying to go through my pics and I will post some when I get them together. 

Surprising Kind of Day

Today was interesting to say the least.  My soon to be ex-husband keeps wanting to friend me on facebook and I keep clicking ignore.  Somehow he and my mom became friends on FB and she saw some interesting things on his page.  I am not going to get into them now, but it's a doozy!  He is also refusing to take me off of our phone account and my stupid cell company can't take me off unless he authorizes it.  He is doing this out of spite.  So I opened my own account today.  But that means I had to get a new number which sucks blue whale.  But it is what it is and I am glad it's over with.  It is a relief not being tied to him on that account anymore. 

I know y'all who are not going to BOOBS is sick of hearing about it.  I really wish y'all could go :(  You will be missed.

I don't know where this post is going or what.  I am tired.  I am tired of packing.  Good night
