but she got a tan and i got a sunburn

Hello! Welp this is the last week of summer. I cant believe school will be starting a week from today! It really flew by! Im ready for it though. I gotta powerthrough it in order to be done by christmas 2011. Its been a great few weeks since i last wrote here! Been spending most of my time with my best friend DW. Oh and the boys turned 1 on saturday! YAY! I also got a fabulous new SLR camera! Still trying to figure it all out still but i love taking pics with it!

Anyways besides working im trying to take it easy this week. Today i spent most of the day at the pool with Sobe!

loving my life =D

just for now

got my huuurrr done today. not sure how i feel about it. my family loves it. actually thats an understatement. my dad applauded me and said that i dont look like an alien anymore. whatever that means. haha. my mom and sister freaked out too. but you know though, hair is hair. the color will come out eventually. or i can fix it if i decide that i hate it. it honestly doesnt look all that different to me anyways.

so i met the most interesting old woman at the hair place today. she was full of the most random stories that went on for what seemed like ages. i barely got 2 words in. but i didnt mind. she kept me entertained. especially the story about how she got bit by a brown recluse spider on her boob. yep. not joking. i thought they were like super poisonous though? hmmm who knows. LOL

its been a good week so far. a ton better than the week before. im so glad i dont feel all depressed anymore. thats a relief. ha. saturday night me and dw went to the fair. it was fun! and sunday after taking charley to the park we went floating down the harpeth again. haha floating fail #2. lets review: 2/1/2 hours of floating. spilling our drink 2 minutes in. spider infested, low hanging tree. climbing an embankment. trekking through a horse farm. discovering that LT has major issues dealing with direction, time, and distance. PRICELESS. there are some fun things that money cant buy. im still laughing about it all. i know im gonna get made fun of for awhile, but thats ok. gotta love adventures. =D

im still reading eat pray love. ive decided its overall a great book, but there are some parts that seem to really drag on. all of my favorite parts of the book are the parts where she it feels like she is talking to me. parts that literally scream out "hey la this is meant for you. take it and learn from it." i had one of those moments yesterday. it was so...whats the word im looking for? enlightening? maybe thats it. i literally laughed out loud and thought to myself, o dang that is so true, and so dead on... anyways...

ahh school starts 3 weeks from today.

the twins turn 1 next week!

"It's that time of year. Leave all our hopelessnesses aside (if just for a little while). Tears stop right here. I know we've all had a bumpy ride (I’m secretly on your side)"

new angle

day 2 (getting happier and not letting my mood affect anyone anymore).

yesterday was a good day! ok semi good day but better night! the boys were easy and didnt put up a fight when i put them to bed, which was a relief for me. so i put on my favorite UT sweatpants (thanks dw!) and got comfy on the couch and finished "Charlie St. Cloud". let me just say that it was such a wonderful book! even the ending was a happy one! im so thankful it didnt turn out to be some sappy and sad love story! it was the kind of book with adventure and romance that made you never want to put it down but at the same time you wanted to stop and savor every minute of it because you knew it would eventually come to an end. i cant wait to see the movie. but judging from past experiences i bet i will like the book better. i really think that DW will like it! maybe this weekend we can go see it!

at borders today i found a new book that i think i will love just as much. since i seem to be reading books with major motion films to go along with it i chose the book "Eat Pray Love". so far-just like the last book i read- i am already 7 chapters in.

yay for good book finds!

o and yay for the people who are coming to fix our washer/dryer! i can finally start washing the dirty clothes 'mountain' that has been pilling up in the corner of my room for weeks now!

i think i may go to sonic in a bit and enjoy happy hour while reading my new book.

tonight i get to hang out with my best friend. possibly gettin some krispy kreme? who knows.

im really liking this whole live your life and be happy attitude thing. its working well for me. lets hope i can continue this way. =)

hahahahahahhaahahahahahah gahhhh i love old pictures. seriously my day just got made. i found old pics from my 21st birthday (not to mention the crap ton of hilarious videos we made), blakes party pics (AKA jimmys 'revenge' pics), summer ohhh 9 pics anddddd the first day i moved to the boro pics! i literally just laughed out loud for a good 10 minutes. i love laughing that hard. wow! im so glad i stumbled upon these. good timesss. i wish everyone could have seen how char char was looking at me while i was laughing. he had this look of "what in the world is wrong with her" which made me laugh even harder.

thank the good lord for laughter. what would i do without it?

"what in the world are you doing?... im talking to my twin brother justin bobby"

.bl-ah.

i wish i was on the beach right now.

i wish everyone (including myself) could be happy.

i wish summer would never end. (ok the heat can go)

I wish a lot of things. haha.

i fully intend on having a better week because im tired of going to bed and waking up miserable.
