Five on Friday

1.Remember how I've said I really want a Pomeranian? Well I've branched out... besides just a pom, I think French bulldogs are the cutest! Look at this guy...

I mean really... look how adorable they are! I want one! I need one! I found one in my area but they wanted $2,000.00 for him. I mean I get that he was a pure breed and a puppy but come on! That's like my mortgage payment plus some! Someone buy this dog!

2. I'm branching out on my cooking. I can make some awesome desserts and some killer breakfast foods but it's the lunch/dinner foods that I'm not so great at making. I can grill out but I'm pretty for sure no one can really mess grilling up. So I've decided to start working on making some new things for dinner. Wish me good luck!

3. I got my November Glam bag and it rocked. I seriously loved every single thing in it. Plus this months bag makes a super cute clutch for the holiday season!

I love the fact that it's only 10.00 and includes the shipping. I got three full size products this month! One of those products alone was worth the ten dollars. I have yet to be disappointed in the bag and this is my 4th month of getting the bags.

4. I got an awesome and unexpected surprise for the upcoming holidays! It totally made my day/week when I found out! I may have even done the happy cry!

5. I made these for the first time and Red Lobster should watch their backs...

RIP Bacon

Meet Skittles. He's rambunctious, enjoys treats, likes to have his belly scratched and will whine until you let him sleep in the same room with you. He particularly loves to slop up his water and eat anything that you drop on the floor. His favorite pastime is getting directly on your lap anytime you try to get something done. He's also very friendly and loves to lick skin. He may or may not have came with a cone of shame (just incase). His mommy and daddy had to go to Chicago so I got to watch Skittles.

Here's what watching Mr. Skittles has taught me.... RIP Bacon. I have wanted a small Pomeranian dog for about three years now. I figured once I got a pom, I would name it Bacon. I never had a dog or cat growing up. My extent of a pet has been fish and a pet turtle once for about 3 days before it had to be set back into the wild. Watching Skittles made me realize maybe I'm not cut out for a dog by myself? I'm not completely sold. I feel like this was a good learning experience which I figured it might be.

I understand that having my own dog from a puppy would be different. I get that everyone trains their dog differently and I understand that every dog is different. However, maybe once I meet someone who will be in my life for the long haul... I'll get a pom. That way it'll be a second person around to help me make sure the dog gets everything it needs and doesn't depend on just me. Maybe some people just aren't meant to be pet owners?

Weekend Review

This past week, I had a house guest...

I spent one of my off days trying to keep summer alive...

This was my whole outfit via polyvore.

I finished cleaning/organizing my garage and to reward myself I bought this little beauty...

I got it from the Red Dress Boutique on sale! I feel like it could come in handy one day when a ring is involved. No idea when that will be but I'll have it! My mom says it's good to prepare, that it brings it closer. Clearly... I'm starting to agree.

 

Now it's Monday and I've got Jury Duty!!!!









Meet the Pom

I want a teddy bear pomeranian... hardcore. I think it all sparked from this little guy...

That's Jiggy the pomp with his owner, Real Housewife of Beverly Hills Lisa Vanderpump. Isn't he freaking adorable?!? I just want to squeeze him, he's so cute. 

I mean for real, who wouldn't want that little guy? Can we say ADORABLE! 

So now the real journey begins, I'm on a quest to get a pom. I won't be able to get one for a little while longer but the moment I can, it's definitely going to be a jiggy look a like. Which I think I'd like to call Bacon.

And the winner is....

The Cavalier King Charles!!!!! Too adorable!!! Sorry, Mr. Wiener Dog.... 

I figure I'll get him/her in a few weeks maybe a month or two. Basically, as soon as I can figure out my work schedule. Thanks everyone for giving your input. I had no idea that wiener dogs can be a little temperamental. I had no idea!

The weather here is absolutely beautiful today! I'm shocked! Last night I went to bed to doom and gloom. It was pouring buckets of rain and rolling thunder. We even had miniature golf ball size hail. So the egg hunt for tomorrow is DEFINITELY on! I was pretty excited because I found a ton of camouflage eggs to fill with candy. Let's just hope the kids can find them. Haha!

I'm pretty nervous for Monday! I start my new job...ekkkk! I have two weeks of orientation/training. I'm not 100% sure of everything that I'll be doing but so far they've been really nice. They've probably called me about 5 times making sure I got my travel info and schedules. The training is about an hour from where I live, so they offered to put me up in a hotel to cut out the driving back and forth. Let me tell you...... I was shocked when they sent me my hotel information. Are you sitting for this?? I have a suite!!! A 2 room suite! It's a really nice hotel and apparently they give me per diem for food! These government jobs are awesome! I don't know what I was thinking before?!? I should have started working for the man a long time ago! 

Alright everyone, I hope you're having an excellent weekend and have a great Easter tomorrow!

Dogs & Pirates. Oh my!

Ok, on to the dogs. I've narrowed it down to two choices. I don't know which one...their both so cute!!! Help me decide between a miniature dachshund aka a wiener dog or a King Charles Cavalier. I just can't decide!!!

             

Finally, pirates. Ok....is it just me or has everyone noticed over the past couple of months the amount of REAL pirates on the news?!?! What is up with these people? Were they low class/high class criminals sitting at home watching Pirates of the Caribbean and decided that's what they wanted to do? I think they were criminals who just had too much time on their hands. I mean really who becomes a pirate? Get a job or at least become a house burglar. There's no need to be going around on a boat terrorizing cruise ships and holding people hostage for ransoms....boo.

I hope everyone has a Happy Easter!!! Good Friday my friends!
