Currently Right Now in the Moment


We all know that I am recently a shitty blogger. I just do it when I can. That's what it's all about. I don't ever want it to be a chore and I won't let it get that way. Hope ya'll have a good day and already had a good day! Peace, love, and chicken grease!
 
 
 
 
Reading: I don’t really read a lot of books. The last series that I read was Twilight. I loved it, but it takes a good bit of time to read so I choose to use it in other ways.

Listening to: iHeart Radio. That’s my thing. Especially at work to break up the silence!

Wearing: Black khakis and a dolman sweater with flip flops. Ha! I’m a rule breaker! Business casual with flops! 
 
 
Looking Forward To: The freakin weekend first and foremost! Week days are busy and crazy right now, but I hope with the fall that it will come to a slow speed. Starting the gym soon! I have to have a wellness check first before I can start, but as soon as I start, I will tell you about it! That way you can hold me accountable! I am also looking forward to date night with the hubs Saturday!


Cooking/Baking: We’ve been cooking more at home and not going out. I miss it, just because I like to be out of the house. I also think this will help me be more conscious of what I am eating so that I can get better eating habits.

Wishing: That things would work out in our favor. There’s one thing we’ve been waiting for a conclusion and they’ve made a decision, we just haven’t been told what it is yet.
 
Thinking about: How I really want to get all of my fall decoration out. By George I’m going to this weekend!
 
Loving: The cooler weather around here. It’s been nice to just sit outside and not sweat! Ha!
 
Funny Seasonal Ecard: And now I will attempt to convince you that leaving windows open is as satisfying as air conditioning.
 
Hating: The unknown, but doesn’t everyone?
 
Thankful:  I can never be thankful enough for my family. That’s so cliché but it’s true. I wouldn’t b e where I am without them. My husband especially. I take him for granted most days even though I know he does SO much for Zane and me. I’m also thankful for my old friends and new friends alike!
 
Wanting: I’ve been wanting a crossbody purse that is brown and leather, but I can’t find that perfect one that doesn’t look cheap. I want something durable and cute. Is there such?!? I also want some more jeans from Maurice’s but I will have to wait until after we get new furniture! Yes, eventually in the next few weeks we will be getting new living room furniture because what we have right now is ‘bo-bo’ ( a hotmess for those of you who don’t know what that means) and broken. We have one partically working recliner and half a couch that’s comfy. Yeah it’s gotten bad at the Smith’s house.
 
What's new with you?

WHAT DAY IS IT?



 
 
 
So yeah, things have been a little off the normal for me and my family. I’ve obviously fell off the blogger wagon, but I’m trying to catch it again. I just have to make time now, because my time is tight now. Well at work it is anyway. My new job is great! I can’t really elaborate but it is an administrative/records type job. It’s easy and challenging. Just what I needed! It keeps me on my toes and it is always something different.
 
 
I’m adjusting to a different routine and starting to acclimate. I’ve been wanting to get all my fall decorations out and put the house back in order, but on the weekends, all I want to do is spend time with my guys. That’s exactly what I’ve done. Dishes and laundry is the only chore I’ve kept up in the last few weeks and it is starting to show. It stresses me out just thinking about all the crap I’ve let go! Can someone send me a house keeper please?
 
 
It is finally starting to cool off around here and I hope that it stays this way! I love this time of year! If you been around my blog a while, you know I love fall! Spring and Fall are my seasons! It’s the in between that I love. The weather is not too hot and not too cold! If it would stay around the breezy 70s, I’d be happy! We can’t have it all can we?
 
 
I’m going to leave you in pictures that we’ve taken on the weekends. Most of these are from this past weekend when we went up to Dillard, GA and Highlands, NC.

LIKE FATHER LIKE SON- HE CAN'T DENY THIS KID!

Maybe. Maybe Not.



Miss me yet?
I bet not. Okay. Maybe you do!
 
 
Things have been absolutely crazy in my life. From adjusting to a new job that is a whole ‘nother world to me, getting into a new schedule, and getting Zane adjusted to school. It has all been chores in itself. So please excuse the part time blogging that has been going on. If you even want to call it that!

Don’t fret; I’ve been having fun in between all this craziness that has been going on! I even met up with a blogger and her hubby for Labor Day weekend! I didn’t take lots of pictures, but I do have some! It was a nice chill weekend! We played at the beach, shopped, and ate some good food! Who did we meet up with? Why it was Pamela and her hubs! Pamela and I met through blogging last year and we met up for the first time at the Color Run in Charlotte last November! She's such a sweet heart! We also met them this summer while on vacation we stopped and had dinner with them! Now we can say we vacationed together! I'm sure that we will do that again!
 
Saturday night we went out to Myrtle Beach and walked on the boardwalk and rode the Sky Wheel. It was a big feat for Pamela. She is terribly afraid of heights. She swallowed her fear for the ride and did so good! With the help of her sweet hubby keeping her calm. We all know my hubs was dying to act crazy! I'm glad he didn't do anything that would have got him punched! haha!



 
Pamela and Bryant,
I'm so glad that you two came and stayed with us for Labor Day weekend! I hope that you had a great time! We enjoyed your company! You both are welcome to hang out with us anytime! Hopefully we see you two soon for the corn maze! Love y'all!
