The Long and Winding Road....

Alright...I honestly don't know where to start.  I haven't been on here in over a week, maybe two.  What's been going on in my personal life is exactly that.  Personal.  But I love blogging to tell people, who read, about my daily life.  So I will share a little to give you an insight as to why I have been absent from here.  As most of you readers know, Timmy lives with me.  We are living at my parents until we find our own place.  We have found a few, and are waiting on calls to set up times to check em out.  But there were words between my dad and timmy that caused a problem.  Timmy packed all of his stuff and left.  It was scary for me because he had always told me if he left, he was taking me with him, and this time he wasn't.  He went to a friends house and I followed suit the next day.  I don't want to go into detail about what exactly happened, because it's personal.  So being away from home, and living out of a bag for a week wasn't too bad...but kept me from blogging.  That and I needed time away.  Topics for blogs are hard for me to come by sometimes.  Anyhow... I would like to thank Walt for letting both Timmy and I stay at his place for a week.  Thank you so very much for giving up your bedroom so that He had a place to sleep.  And thank you for letting me stay there for that time as well.  I am extremely grateful that he has a friend like You that will help him out with no questions asked.  You didn't have to let me stay, but you did and I honestly can't thank you enough.  Hey when we get our own place You are welcome anytime!  And so is any of our other friends that ever need anything.  So there ya go.  I will  be back to my old blogging self next week.  I promise :]

I've been absent from here for a little over a week now.  It's a personal issue and I hope to be back blogging soon.

The Magnetic Fields " Nothing Matters When We're Dancing"

Deal Me In played Court House Co-Op last night.  It was an early show.  Fresh Flesh,a new local band, played first.  They were soooo good.  Music I love and  get really into. Deal Me In were also amazing.  They played a few new songs.  I'm getting really excited because they are fairly new and the buzz about them is already sooo freakin up there, and their music is already changing and getting better and better!  They have a show in Jackson,MS next sunday and another out of town show April 14th in Tuscaloosa, AL! Which is really exciting because my little brother from another mother goes to school at University of Alabama and is coming out to the show, and it's been a good 3 years if not more since I've seen him!  So that's exciting.  I have really missed my other family.  I'm really going to have to make a trip down to the gulf to visit this summer.  Oh Timothy and I ventured to the Zoo yesterday before he went to practice.  We were on short time so we walked pretty fast through there.  Thank Goodness I had 2 half off tickets, so it didn't cost a freakin arm and a leg to get in.  The thing that sucked though is that you have to pay for evvvvverything.  I just wanted to feed the Giraffes...not pay 10 bucks for us to do it.  You would think if you paid so much to get in, they would let you feed something ya know!  Anyhow after that we grabbed lunch, and he went to practice.  I however watched my show on netflix...I will not disclose what show on account of the embarrassing it is, and took a short but needed nap.  Exciting huh!   Then I got up, cleaned and made myself a mixed drink.  See there was two cups in my room, once was Timmy's and the other mine.  I poured a concoction into one and I must have picked up the other without even realizing it.  Because when I started drinking it I was amazing at how it tasted like I put NOTHING in it....that's because I didn't.  I drank the whole cup and was wondering why I didn't feel anything at all.  It wasn't until later after the show, when we got home and Timmy was thirsty so he picked up his cup from earlier, and took a big gulp, then proceeded to gag!  He was a little mad haha, and so was I for wasting all that booze!   Also a picture I thought to be destroyed was put on facebook for the fb world to see.  A rather embarrassing photo of myself dressed up like little wayne, making a horrendous face. Of course peeps would ask me to see it. But it was all in good fun so I didn't mind.  Well readers! Until next time xoxoxo

I'm really warming up to these "What I Wore" posts!  Here is an outfit I adore.  I haven't worn it in foooorever!  And of course...it's from Target.  I sometimes sit there and realize how much money I spend at that store.  And realize that I have gotten several dresses from there.  As well as Cardigans and flats. Please forgive me for my awkward stance and messy hair, it's a teeny bit humid out and my hair doesn't like humidity... Anyhow Here ya Go!

Red Wine Lips

This post is Straight to the point! RED WINE!  Since I have worked at the liquor store I have been trying lots and lots of different wines.  I usually stuck only with Moscato's...but I decided I needed to branch out and experience different varieties.  So far I have found 3 red wines that I am obsessed with.   

First is San Antonio Cardinale.  It's not too sweet.  It has the perfect amount of sweetness and a tad bitterness, so the bitter red wine lovers should like this one!

Second is Barefoot Red Moscato...oh my goodness.....sososososo good!  And I know I said I was trying to branch out from the Moscato's, but we just got this one in and I sampled it and fell in LOVE! It has the prettiest floral scent. Soft and Sweet and tastes even better.

Third is Sweet Walter Red Wine.  Now is this kind of right in the middle of San Antonio and Barefoot on the sweetness level.  It's really really good and If you want a soft sweet red wine, then this is the one for you!

Lisa Mitchell - "Red Wine Lips"

Ayyiyi...ok so I got so confused today.  I don't usually work on thursdays, so working today feels like a friday sans paycheck.  I was about to post a friday favorites post until i remembered! and thank goodness i did!  Anyhow The DMI boys got a show in Jackson,MS two weeks from now.  I am attending and am very much exciiiited!  It's their FIRST out of town show! Oh boy I am going to take lots and lots of pictures!  I'm slackin I know! But works calls!  xoxoxo

Ok so I have been trying to blog every single day...tryyying haha.  I do miss a day here and there but I'm trying.  I've been getting back into the groove of things and once I'm in it I keep going.  And also it's been a little difficult finding things to blog about so most of my posts are really last minute thoughts.  I've been wanting to do more "What I Wore" posts, but my wardrobe is so blah and nearly empty...I need new clothes so bad, but everytime I go anywhere to get some I end up putting them back.  Clothes have just gotten so expensive and I have bills and too many other things to buy and save for.  That and I can't find any freakin stores with clothes that I actually really like.  Target used to be my go to store....not anymore... Their clothes are just getting more and more awful.  All the other stores I like only cater to size 0.  I'm a curvvy gal. haha.  Anyhow I have decided I'm going to do a post once a week about Cocktails.  Since I started working at a liquor store I have learned sooooo much about what goes good with what, how to properly taste things.  I have learned a lot about wines.  And I have been trying to broaden my tastes.  I stick to the sweeter wines a la Riesling and Sweet White/Reds...but I'm slowly getting into merlo's and cabs.  My liquor drink of choice is Vodka.. I prefer the clears to the browns.  And I prefer Potato vodkas to grain.  Make the most significant difference in smoothness and taste.  So done rambling, but I am going to start making different Mixed Drinks and showing you guys how to make them yourself!  Well.. I'm off for now! Gotta get back to work!
