So Many Amazing...

... SHOES. What else? This close to the holidays definitely has everyone looking for a sale here or a bargain there. And I swear, Amazon is where it's at. I think I about fell in love with half of what I found today. I love a good deal, so I picked my size, and set the price limit to $25, and look what I found!!


I love purple! And these are only $10.99!

These are only $21.79!
 
I love the combination of colors here! $18.99!

These are a great holiday shoe, the color and wave design would compliment any LBD! $16.97!
And I am not usually a fan of the wedge, but these are pretty awesome. $14.99!
 
 
 
All these shoes are about 8 dollars in shipping, each. And that's not bad, unless you wanted to buy them ALL, which I do. :) If you want to go looking for them, they are on Amazon, they are Sheik Shoe brand. And I Loooooove them!!

And I'm Still Here..

I was just looking back all my old posts, and the most recent one gets me. I stayed in my hometown. Never went back to Georgia. I guess I'm fickle like that.

Lauren is almost two. It's less than 4 months away, and I am terrified. She is growing up too fast, I'm not ready. Soon she'll be in college, then I will be a grandma. Too much.. :)

I'm getting ahead of myself. Two isn't that old, yet.


I'm spending all my free time reading. Every book I can get my hands on. I must be making the people at Amazon incredibly rich. Whoever invented the Kindle is a freaking GENIUS.

The rest of my time is spent in a whirlwind of blocks and rubber ducks, baths and dirty diapers, naps and bottles of milk, and work. Work is definitely my least favorite.

And with that being said. I have a long day ahead of me tomorrow, and Lauren is asleep. That's where I am headed, finally. Goodnight, Moon.

And All These Years Go By So Fast...

Home sweet Norwich. It's a strange feeling sitting in my childhood home kitchen. All I can remember are all the reasons I left. Yet at the same time I can't help but want to stay. Luckily I already bought my plane ticket to go home.

I suppose she is the reason we are here. I wouldn't change it for anything. She's my world. <3

Tell me why we're talking when we dance so good?

So I haven't been on here in over a year. How insane is that?! So much has happened and changed. I left Saint Louis, moved to the Atlanta area. Two years after I said I was going to. I got married, had a baby girl. Her name is Lauren, she was born March 9th, 2011 at 5.18pm, 7lbs 3 oz, 20in long. She is amazing. Funny, and smart. And probably the best crawler of all time.


She looks super guilty here, because she stole the dog bone. But she's cute as pie so it's ok.

As for the marriage, that didn't exactly work out the way I wanted it to. My husband ended up going back to Mexico to see his sick brother, and no we are pretty sure he isn't coming back. He has been gone 7 months, so as much as it sucks, and I hate to say it, we both basically moved on. But at least we still talk.

I am working in a Mexican Restaurant (La Hacienda) in Newnan, Georgia. And it's insane. Every day is a trip. Someone's car got stolen from the parking lot Sunday. People keep getting fired left and right. I just don't understand it at all. The rules change every day for no reason, but at least for now I am on their favorites list. I do my work and I leave, and they gave me the exact schedule that I want, basically, and I am working on getting that completely kink free too. I love getting special treatment.

So, here in Georgia, I am living with my sister and her family. And it's a little rough at times. You know how family is. We fight, we're better in a few hours. But my oh my what I wouldn't give to have my own place again. I miss living alone so much it's ridiculous. Too bad we aren't neighbors. Or we had a split level or something.

Anyway, that's my life update at the moment. And now I will continue on to my fabulous and much missed fashion blogging!! Woooo hooo. <3

I will DEFINITELY update this tonight, and get you updated on the insanity that has been my life the last few months. Like the new boyfriend. Starting school. Getting a new place. And an even bigger shock!

Until then. ttfn

High School Angst

So I was digging through a box of old school stuff, and I found this old poem I wrote my senior year for a poetry slam in English class. I have to share this with the world since it is so not who I am anymore.

I sit in my room Dark and Cold
With the stereo blasting and the door locked
I close my eyes and think of the world
Of the poor lonely insignificant people
Who put others down to make themselves feel better
The ones who say they’re happy
But they go home at night and cry
The ones who say they’ve seen the world
But the furthest they’ve gotten in Atlantic City
Where they go and throw their money away
On Keno and games of  High Low Poker with stacked decks
But that’s what the world is
A deck of cards stacked against you
No one can win
And everyone loses
Come one come all
To the biggest game that can never be won
But that wouldn’t be any fun
We feed on the pain and hurt of the world
We love the suffering and the hate of Society
That’s what my music tells me
“Let the bodies hit the floor”
Because this is a world where we are all born losers
Condemned to a life of hatred and terrorism
I guess we’re just lucky like that
A place like this is what kids dreams are made of
Bubblegum Sugarplums and School Shootings
It’s everywhere
The hate and ignorance of society is what keeps us in chains
We live day to day trying to survive
Asking ourselves is this the day we die
Is this the end?
Did we remember to kiss our Mommy and Daddy goodbye
Tell them we love them?
But we’re too young to die
So we deal with what is going on in the world
And we can’t make a change
We’re too young
We don’t know
We didn’t go to Nam
Or have to walk fifteen miles to school
In the snow
Barefoot
Uphill
BOTHWAYS
But no, we don’t know
We don’t see how we will ever win
We don’t thing that we will ever win
And we’re right
So underestimated and do under appreciated
We watch this everyday
And I see the shallow
The superficial
Them with their Prada bags
Their Gucci dresses
Giorgio Armani suits
Their 6 carat pink diamond
On a white gold band from Tiffany Co.
And it makes me sick
In this world where there is terror and hunger everywhere
They still treasure their 400 dollar purse
So I turn my music up louder
And close my eyes tighter
And slip from this world
To a place where I can be me

Ok, so if you know me, you know that I am the Tiffany ring Prada purse toting girl, now. It makes me smile when I think about it.
