Weekend of Fun!


Hi everyone!

If you are reading this, I clearly survived the first week of tests… I was so stressed out I almost cried yesterday. School had never made me feel this way before, but I think that now that I know that my future is at stake, I take my education extremely seriously and I was having a nervous breakdown. Until yesterday, I had completely underestimated four of the five psychology exams I took. I did well on most of them, but there is just test that I am not so sure about.

Dr. Anderson, if you ever read my blog, I would like to apologize for the poor writing skills on Wednesday’s test. I am so embarrassed to have turned in what I did; but I promise myself that I will do way better on the next two exams.

Lesson learned? I am not super woman and I do not have a photographic memory anymore. I need to study. Study, study, study…

Ok, enough about school; the doctor already gave me a prescription for a happy pill that should take care of that issue J #StillWinning! Oh, and Olivia Pope is back, bitches!!!

I am so excited for this weekend, I cannot wait to get out of work so I can head to the airport and get on a plane that will take me to what will hopefully be my new home: Albuquerque, New Mexico J Yes, the land of Walter White. Most importantly, the land of the man I love and I am soon to marry. Have I ever told you how super awesome this man is? He is super awesome and he makes me the happiest woman on earth every single day. I LOVE YOU, MICHAEL! Yesterday was a very special day, it was Mikey’s 32nd birthday. Happy Birthday Baby!! He flew out to ABQ yesterday so he could have a fabulous Friday with the boys playing golf, tailgating, and watching the Lobos’ game. Go Lobos! My plane lands tonight, so the party won’t start ‘til I walk in, of course J I can’t wait to get there so I can give him a hug and a ton of kisses; but also to celebrate my man’s birthday! We are getting together with our awesome group of friends at a local brewery and believe me when I say I just can’t wait to have a beer!

Now let’s get to the most important part of our trip: Santa Fe, NM.

 

Mike and I will spend Saturday in this magical place visiting two prospect venues to host our wedding reception. I am hoping we can decide on a place so we can finally set our wedding date and get the ball rolling on the rest of the wedding things, such as invitations, flowers, goodie bags, food, and wedding cake – my favorite part!

So, for now I will leave you with only that much info because that is all I know J There is so much more to talk about, but I won’t do that to ya J At least not now… ha ha ha J

Have a great weekend, I know mine will be so much fun!!

Go Lobos!

I'm Still Here, I Swear!

Woah! I just looked at my last post and realized it's been a long time... I'm still here and I think about updating my blog often, but then life kinda gets in the way, ya know? Since my last post, I've traveled twice - to Big Bear and New Orleans, started five (yes, five!) classes, adopted a puppy, Lolita, and continue to work 40 hours a week... Ugh, I just tired myself out thinking about it! Oh, but wait, that's not it. I also have the awesome ongoing task of planning my wedding :-) Now, if we could only set the final date, my life would be a little easier. But more about that later, maybe on a Bermudey Wedding post ;-)


Now, Lolita, oh my God! I am totally head over heels for that little firecracker, I mean puppy! Ha ha! We had the pleasure of welcoming her into our family thanks to the help of the amazing people from the French Bulldog Rescue Network. Lolita is an eleven month-old French Bulldog baby girl that was surrendered by her family in Norman, OK - Go Sooners! I am sure that taking her to FBRN was not an easy decision, but that little girl was meant to be ours. She and Bear Maximus look like twins. Bear adores her and I have never seen that crazy doggy be so gentle before, I keep saying he's in love... Oh, puppy love. Now I know what puppy love looks like. Anyway, she will be turning the big 1 on September 23, so I am planning her little birthday party. I guess I should also add that to the list above, huh? Ooophf!

Totally crazy for these two! Lolita Pomp & Bear Maximus

You like those pics, dontcha?!? :-)

In the midst of all things, I have also started five psychology classes: Cultural, Social, Stats, Cognition, and of Older Adults. I can't wait to be done with this semester; not because I don't like it, but because I will be going on a week-long cruise to the Caribbean as soon as I "walk out of school." Then, wait for it, wait for it, I will be in New Mexico for at least two weeks. We will be taking the pupsters, so it will be a road trip. Have I ever mentioned I love taking road trips!
So, I am still here... There is so many wonderful things going on in my life that I feel like the days are way too short leaving no time for many other activities I would like to do, such as frequent blogging. For now, please enjoy the pictures because I sure did have an awesome time while taking them!





 Hope you enjoyed the pics. Love y'all!
