Friday Confessions

Ahh, we made it! Finally to Friday! The first of the New Year (minus New Year's Day). I tried to mentally calculate how many more Fridays there are until next Christmas, and then I tried to Google it instead when that didn't work and found I didn't even have the brain cells to accomplish that, so I for one am super PUMPED that it's the weekend because my brain be FRIED!

I can't even think straight, much less put together anything that makes sense at this point, which is why the following sentences are random:

~~Sometimes~~ Usually when I lay on my side and am reading or on my phone, my eye will leak and it looks like I'm crying but I'm really not. I'm just leaky

Post First Monday inspiration hit hardcore Saturday night. Probably the main cause for our pecan dinner as well. Can't wait to see finished product!

I received a onesie for Christmas and legit spent all of New Year's Day (and then some) in it already. I highly recommend for those too lazy to get dressed bc it's too cold and pajamas aren't enough!

My personal email (and all social media log ins) is still my old email address, but my work email/log in is my updated name, which makes for a frustrating mind every time I try to log into anywhere. I really need to update my personal email-9 months later is not too late, right?

My January resolution is to not eat candy. I've been binging since October. The struggle is real, and so far I've failed the past 8 days. #winning

And one for good luck:

After about 4 years I am finally giving up and taking out my cartilage piercing. My ears have been bothering me lately when sleeping, so I've been taking it out at night and a couple of days ago I just stopped putting it back in. Whoops.

Happy Friday!

Hair today, gone tomorrow!

Well. I did it. Took the plunge. Jumped off the band wagon. And I feel....about 8-9 inches lighter! And the not so pretty before photo (just looked at all that fried straw!): #shorthairdontcare

Wedding Invites: DIY

During my wedding planning, one of the things that I was most "sticker shocked" on was how much wedding invitations cost! I looked everywhere (and I'm talking everywhere: Etsy, Michaels, Target, Pinterest, any online shop, etc.) for ones that I liked that were cute, not too elaborate, and at a reasonable price (meaning not $300-600). I mean, it's a sheet of paper, envelope, stamp, and RSVP basically. It wasn't until I found this DIY that I finally had a possibility for what we were wanting to use for our invites, and I think they turned out great (for a DIY). 2 Invites could be made from 1 sheet of paper. I printed the actual invite on Vellum paper, and then put it over the card stock. Here's what you need: FREE Template 1 pack of 100 sheet Card Stock Paper-I got mine from Michaels because it was shimmery but not too blingy 1 pack of white vellum paper (I got mine at Staples) Ribbon in color of your choice Hole Puncher Scissors Half

Winter is Coming..so is a Wedding!

Burrrr! Today is a balmy 40 degrees outside-and I'm definitely not ready for it despite my scarf-wearing, boot shopping fashion choices since September, hoping to "force" Fall to actually happening, but now that it's here: go away! Or at least just get a liiiitle bit warmer, so I can still have fun in my dozens of scarves and boots, but not freeze my ass off. Ka-peesh? My parents like to kindly remind me of what's to come in December, since we are going to the Army-Navy football game in Baltimore. Last year in Philly was just awful (and by awful I mean freezing, rainy, icy, cold, hungry, wet, sweaty, repeat) but a blasty blast being in a new city and living through new memories being made. Any hoo-Even though I'm not snuggled up at home on this festive Veteran's Day (thank you to everyone who has served!), warm in my bed, I still wanted to touch on some wedding related topics: vendors. This could also be fun to read AFTER the wedding in April, to loo
