I'm Baaaaaaaaaaaaaackkkkkkk!!!!

Went on my vacation with the hubby to Hilton Head, SC for a week and I'm back!! Enjoyed it so much and can't wait for our next vacation! Hopefully I will be able to update this blog more now that I am back. WhooHoo!

P.S. I started scrapbooking AGAIN. That's what I'm talking about!

So What Have We Been Up to Lately?

Yes blog, I have been missing in action again. Had to much stuff going on that I didn't have time to come on here and post. So what have I been up to lately? For one I accepted a new position a couple of months ago, finished up taking my classes for that semester, moved to a new place all while trying to keep my sanity in place! Things are starting to calm down a little bit so I thought I would post again. I can't wait until next month when I get to take a week's vacation to Hilton Head!! Whoop Whoop! Will definitely need the relaxation from the beach and the resort. Can't wait~~
I had to post the picture above because I thought it was so cute how Saks curled up on Mark's lap to go to sleep. He just started doing that to us recently laying on our laps. Ahhhhh, my little old man is so cute...

Still Scrapbooking..Well Kinda

I've still been ORDERING scrapbook supplies..LOL..have not had the time to scrapbook in a very long time. However, when I get a chance I look at blogs, Pinterest, etc and get new ideas, and then I order the stuff I need but don't get a chance to use it! Uggggh...I digress..Hopefully when things calm down in my life (HA!) I will be able to put a little focus on my favorite hobby. Ooooh speaking of hobby, maybe I will go to Hobby Lobby today? LOL...goodness..

Downtown Tampa

I love driving through downtown. I have only worked in a building there once a loooooong time ago when I was 18 at a temp agency and I was on teh 84th floor and I remember being so scared because the building still had so many floors to go up. And all I kept thinking about was "Man, if this elevator breaks down, that's ALOT of stairs to have to go up and down!" LOL. Anyway, it's something about downtown that I love and it doesn't matter what city or state I'm in I just like driving through it. Maybe it's all the buildings and the hustle and bustle of all the people walking up and down the street with a million cars and taxis and buses, etc. Okay so maybe I DO know why!! LOL..

Not as Easy As Some Make It Seem

We have been on a journey of trying to become a family on our own for almost a year now. I just recently had surgery to make sure that everything was a go and we could finally start with the help of RE doctors. This will be our first month and although every woman wants it to happen on the first try, I have been down this road before and know that sometimes it takes more than one try. With that being said I'm human and I hope that it happens the first time!! LOL But if it doesnt, I'm willing to take it and continue on with our pursuit of becoming a family...

Much Needed Weekend

Mark and I joined my parents for a much needed weekend getaway in Orlando. Here we are at lunch with the parents and then afterwards we went swimming in the pool, watched movies, etc and relaxed. Can't wait for our long vacation that we are taking in October!! Can't get here fast enough!

Finally Done with Finals!!

As I am sitting here waiting for my sleep to come down because I am so used to staying up late and studying, I am realizing for the first time that I am done with all of my school work for this semester! I am so relieved! This was the hardest semester that I have had in a LONG TIME. Taking three classes while working full-time and trying to have a life with my husband was so stressful these past 16 weeks! But I made it through (thank you hubby for your patience!) Now I only get to relax for a few days because I have another class starting in a week! Whew..okay going to try to get some sleep...

Currently...

Haven't done this in a while but it will help me get back into the swing of things with my blogging so...

Listening: to my thoughts in my head Eating: nothing, trying not to eat after 8pm Drinking: water Wearing: My Jammies Feeling: Crampy and Crabby LOL Weather: Raining Wanting: Some sleep Needing: Some sleep LOL (Go to bed Erika!!) Thinking: I can't wait until this semester is OVER!!! LOL Enjoying: Talking to my husband and mother everday Wondering: Will I go to bed soon? LOL

Been a Long time

FEELING LIKE A DIVA!!

It's been a long time since I have blogged lately. Working full-time and taking three classes and trying to have a life on the side has taken its toll. I am actually taking a much needed 20 min break to write something on this blog seeing that it has been so long since I have been on here. Well hopefully I will be able to start blogging again on a regular basis soon since my three classes will be done in a couple of weeks and I can also start scrapbooking again! Whoop Whoop! Until then see you later! Toodles! ~ Me

I'm in the Mood for Scrapbooking Again! Whoop Whoop!

So today I'm in the mood for some scrapbooking and blogging, so after I posted the blog below this one, I started going through my stash and working on my Project Life..I used the pictures from yesterday's visit to Panera Bread with friends and also a template from Cathy Z that you can find here. And I love it!



Okay so I took the pictures with my phone but you get the idea of the look hopefully!

Mmm. Panera Bread

So yesterday the girls and I went to Panera Bread

They have so many new things on the menu now since I have been there that I didn't know what to choose from!

The girls ended up getting something that smelled and looked so yummy!

And I ended up with my old backup plan which is half a sandwhich with chips and a drink! Next time I will be ready!

First Post for 2012!

Yep,

I have been missing in action on my blog. Didn't really blog about too much last year because I was just too busy. I did manage to work on my Project life book.



Was able to buy some new supplies



And I was able to spend some quality time with my husband and my fur baby :)


This year I am going to try to blog a little more because I want to take more pictures this year so that I can start filling up my books :)
