Happy Cyber Monday!

I just had the best four days anyone could ask for! 

I skipped the annual what I'm thankful post because I just wanted to spend my time off of work and school soaking up the things I'm thankful for!

And man did I ever do that. 

I got to spend time with (most of) of the people I love! Including a shopping trip with my oldest cousin on Thanksgiving day, and a cupcake date with another cousin (one that just turned 16 and drove himself there) (crazy!) Lots of lounging with the boy of course. I missed my Mom, and my Brother, and I really really really missed my sister! I wish she would have been here to cook and shop with me! 

The food this year was awesome! I'll post what I made tomorrow. Everything was a big hit! (I just love that!)

Other than Thanksgiving day with the family I had no plans, and that is my very favorite thing! I didn't have tests to study for or projects to complete I just did what I wanted to do! glorious!

I spent lots of time relaxing on the couch, mostly watching football and doing some online shopping!

I didn't step foot into a store and got a ton of great deals! I'm not against Black Friday shopping sometimes it's fun, but I just wasn't feeling it this year, so online was great for me!

We got things accomplished around the house lots of things marked off the to-do list!

And went to the last home SOONER game! It was cold and wet and just an overall nasty game, but we won and I guess that's what's most important. 

You know what I didn't do...take one single picture...I'll try to do better the rest of the season!

I had a hard time getting out of bed this morning but it will be nice getting back into my normal routine! 

and maybe do a little more shopping! (have you seen any good cyber Monday deals?)

I hope you all had a wonderful holiday!

Today I wore jeans to work and I didn't wash my hair....

I'm such a rebel.

Actually I just thought no one would be the wiser.

Some days (most actually) I don't see a soul my entire work day. I thought today would be one of those days, until my boss walked in around 2:00.

Oh well.

Truth be told I went home at lunch and put the jeans on because I just wasn't very comfortable.

Tomorrow I'll try a little harder...maybe.

THANKSGIVING BREAK I AM SO FREAKING THANKFUL FOR YOU!

What's the deal with the baby pjs for grownups??

Have you seen these?

They've been at Target for awhile...

and that's okay because it's Target right?

Then I noticed them in my Land's End Canvas catalog (without feet)...and I thought that was kind of weird.

But then yesterday I noticed them at J.CREW....

Really is this for real?

Is this the new trend for pajamas?

I will not be participating, can you even imagine? I mean look at that jcrew models ass, that is not flattering can you even imagine what they would look like on a normal person?

I'm pretty sure if I were a guy I'd have it written into my wedding vows no weird one piece pjs. ever. Maybe guys think they are hot though...I'll have to check with G when I get home...but I'm just not seeing it...

I'd admit I am far from the most fashionable or trendy person (there is a reason you'll never see outfit of the day posts around here) but I just don't get the function or the excitement of these. I sure wouldn't spend $80 on them!

Do you own one piece pjs?

Are they on your Christmas list this year?

Please tell me the appeal!

November Fail. And Swaps!

I didn't make it posting every day in November...dang it.

The 3-day took so much out of me both physically and mentally that I've been going to bed at ridiculously early hours.

Every night riiiight before I fall asleep I think about how I didn't blog but the goal doesn't seem worth dragging my sleepy self out of bed and turning on the computer. So, I've just accepted the fact that this isn't my month for every day posting. Maybe I'll try again next month?

I'm so excited to share pictures from the 3Day and to write about my experience but you'll have to wait at least another day. :)

In other news...I can't help but sign up for all the blog swaps during this time of the year! I seriously love  getting things in the mail and I may take my job of putting together the perfect swap present a little too seriously!

Here are some good ones I've signed up for!

Laura at Luckiest in Love had the ornament swap last year and it was so much fun I can't wait to participate again! Who doesn't love new Christmas ornaments?

Then there are three fun lady's hosting a Secret Santa Swap! I love a good surprise so I think this one should be exciting! Head on over to Everyday AEM to learn more about it!

Are there any more fun swaps I'm missing out on??

HOME!

I know these short posts should hardly even count for NaBloPoMo but...they are all I can manage right now since I didn't schedule anything for yesterday or today, I just wasn't sure what would be swirling through my head while I was on the walk.

I'm still not sure that I have processed the magnitude of it all.

But, I did it. I walked 60 miles in 3 days and it was hard. and amazing.

get ready because the posts and the pictures will be coming...

Day 2

Oh the blisters I'm in medical hoping to get them taken care of but the line is insane. At least I'm sitting down can't wait to write about this experience.

Here goes nothing....

Abbi and I have been planning this walk since February and it is finally here.... 

Today is the first day. 

We will arrive at Collin Creek Mall between 6:00-7:00am, listen to the opening ceremony and then start walking...

The anticipation has been building and my ability to sleep has been weakening. I said to Garrett I feel like a little kid who gets to go to Disney World and their Mom keeps telling them to go back to sleep. I just want to be up!

"Ya but this is more like boot camp than Disney World" was his reply, he's probably right.

I hope it lays somewhere in between, boot camp and a good life changing adventure. 

And as always I hope I don't get blisters!
