Wish Lists

Summer is here and that means I get to spend countless hours at the house. This brings along plenty of day dreaming, which brings along a wish list of things I would like to do around the house before big changes take place (more on that later on). 

On the list:

• Change all the doors so that they match. Right now we have 4 doors that are the same and 1 that's the odd man out. I like the odd man out and want all the other ones to match.
• Replace the toilet in the guest bathroom. We, aka the hubs, has done everything he possibly could to fix this stupid toilet. But no matter what, we've replaced everything, it still runs constantly. I'm so tired of jiggling the stupid handle!
• Move the laundry room to the main floor. I hate, hate having it in the basement. I'm done lugging load after load up and down the stairs. Stupid laundry room in the basement that will probably always remain in the basement.
• Repaint. Hahaha. The hubs would kill me if I repainted. 
• New front door. Our front door is ugly! I want one with a window in it. Something that will let in some light in that dark corner. Or at least something with a peephole in it. Now whenever someone comes to the door I have to try to peek out the window without being seen. Yeah. It's not fun.

This is just the short list. Will any of it get done? Of course not! That's why I'm calling this a "wish list." Something for me to dream about and play around with, but not something that I ever expect to really get done.

My Guilty Pleasure

The Bachelorette. This week was rather entertaining. The whole Scotland thing in Croatia. Come on, if you wanted to play the highland games, actually do it in Scotland! It's not like it wouldn't be hard. Did anybody else find that a little odd? I know I did.

I can honestly say I am glad to see Ryan go. At first I liked him. Then I got a little worried. The more he spoke, the more worried I became. The whole "trophy wife" thing killed it for me. And I think it killed it for Emily as well.

I'm really starting to like Emily though. The way she stood up to Kalon/Chopper/whatever his name was last week sealed the deal for me. I didn't mind watching her go all "backwoods West Virginia" on his behind. 

Apparently there's drama next week involving Arie. Not too worried there. I'm pretty sure he's the one she ends up with. That whole racing thing just ties them together. Of course I wouldn't mind if she chose Sean. I really like him. He seems like a really good and decent guy. I don't know. Those are my top two. We'll see who she goes for. I'm trying my best not to go searching for spoilers. I will make it through this season. Last season I had to go and see who won Ben's heart. This time I will last. I must.

Send Something Good

My package arrived the day before we left for Disney. I was so excited to receive it! Thank you so much Shelby @ Sweetness In Starlight! You did well!! Let me just say, I LOVE Chicago. My father is from there and it's been years since I've gotten to go to the windy city. I hope to go back one day! Those gluten free cookies were amazing! I tried not to eat them all at once, but boy was it hard! They were so good! 

For my Something Good partner I had Deona @ http://abcs-123s.tumblr.com/. My photography skills lacked before I shipped her package and therefore I don't have pictures. Life was crazy! Life is crazy! But that's for another post at another time ;) 

I'm back

School's out! Summer is here! Beach here I come! Beach I wish I was coming to you!

But now I'm back to the blogging world. Sorry for my hiatus. It's been a crazy few weeks! But don't worry, I'm back and will be sharing my Disney Adventures with everyone shortly! 

Why my work is cooler than yours...

Today we were visited by...

Her name is Bayroo (short for baby kangaroo) and she is 6 months old.

I call him Llama Llama and he is my friend.

Hello Camel, cheese for the camera.

And my favorite...

Meet Mary Jane, the Spider Monkey. She likes me. We're bffs.

Yeah. I'd say my work is cooler than yours. At least today it was.

Time for a Guest Blogger!

Meet Leta. My "second mom" and business partner in this amazing journey that is Rodan + Fields Dermatology. I've asked her to guest post on here and share about the business.

I have to chime in on this blog.  I am Alli's partner in Rodan+Fields Dermatologists and I am very excited about it.  Her enthusiasm and fresh ideas inspire me to work on being the best partner I can be.  We have an amazing opportunity at hand with Rodan+Fields Dermatologists.  Just like Proactiv, we will be on most bathroom counters throughout the world sooner than later.  My partnership with these two amazing doctors has caused me to have many sleepless nights as we expand across the country.  Sleepless because of the excitement and growth that we are in the midst of.  I have been a consultant for a year and a half and I am telling you, my life is changing for the positive and my skin has surely changed.  I've actually been accused of having had work done on my face.  I LOVE THAT!  Our anti-age regimen (wash, toner, day cream and night cream), used in conjunction with our AMP MD Roller (200 micro, surgical steele needles), Literally pierces the skin and allows our medicine based products to go under the skin, boosts collagen and fills in those lines and wrinkles.  There is a lot of anti-aging products out there, but none of them include this amazing roller and has the name, Rodan+Fields, on them.  These products are guaranteed to create results and I am proof that they work!

I am beyond excited at what the future holds for Alli and me because of Rodan+Fields Dermatologists.  Alli plans to stay at home w/her sweet babies once they start their family and I am sooooo excited to help her reach that goal!  btw, you can help her too.  Go to her website, {awood.myrandf.com} click on the "Solution Tool", follow the prompts and determine which product is best for you.   Alli will receive an e-mail telling her that you have been on her website and which regimen was referred.  She can follow up with you and tell you how to get a discount and FREE shipping!  Check it out now.

Finally...

Finally, I get to sit still for two seconds and breathe.

Finally, I get to catch up on life online (not the kind of online life that I can only see at work).

Finally, we're down to single digits in the Disney trip countdown (7 days baby!).

Finally, we're in the last month of school.

It's been a whirlwind two weeks. Last week I made the trip to South Carolina to visit my grandparents and get my teeth cleaned, my {Eric's} grandmother was in the hospital {no worries, she just has bronchitis, better safe than sorry when it comes to her and respiratory infections}, we had a principals brunch that I was in charge of decorating, some co-workers and I through a baby shower for a former co-worker {the same one I took pictures for two weeks ago}, I had two photography sessions this past Saturday, I worked at church Sunday, yesterday I had to take my car to the shop, and today I had to pick up said car and get the oil changed in the Tahoe. It's been a crazy past two weeks and I don't know if I've sat still long enough to gather my thoughts. On top of it all, we've got a wedding shower for another co-worker tomorrow and the last part of CRCT testing {which I'm proctoring} tomorrow. It's insane.

As you can tell by the random ramblings of my brain. I don't know if I'm capable of putting two coherent sentences together. 

The inside of my grandparent's farm house. I love this place.

The hubs and I got married on top of that hill.

My future home aka my grandparent's farmhouse. 

The centerpieces I did for the luncheon. Unfortunately I forgot my camera and had to settle with phone pictures.
