Friday Brain Dump

Now that Jamie is eating real food, every night I make sure to fix him a well balanced meal with all the appropriate food groups. Then I eat PB&J.

I don't get Pinterest.  Or Twitter.  But I've found myself wanting to sign up just to see what all the fuss is about.

So many of you have commented how much you're looking forward to all our Vegas pictures.  I have a confession.  There aren't many.  I'm horrible about taking pictures on vacation.

I came *this* close to getting a tattoo in Vegas, but I chickened out.  Twice. My first 2 tattoos have personal meaning. They weren't just some random design. I always said I would never get a tattoo if I didn't have something in mind. One that meant something. All I know is I want something girly on my foot. Something colorful.  Something just for me. Since I didn't have anything concrete in mind, I couldn't do it. Would have been a cool souvenir in honor of the big 3-0 and now I'm kicking myself for not doing it.

If I had gotten a tattoo the hubs wanted to get one either on his wedding band finger or on the underside of his wrist. I nixed the ring finger idea. While I like the romantic sentiment of it all, and I don't want to sound like I love hater.....you never know what the future holds and that's pretty permanent. I told him if in 50 years he still wants it, ok.

My cell phone has been acting all kinds of crazy.  Part me hopes it's broken so I can get a new one.  The other part me hopes it's fixable because all the texts my mom sent me are saved on there and once the phone is gone, they're lost as well.

I saw a fabulous Coach purse on our trip.  The print was gorgeous.  Lucky for my bank account they were sold out in everything but the wallet.  Now it's all I can think about.

I'm thinking about making the ole blog private.  I blog for me.  No one else.  I'm not trying to make money off of it or become the next Pioneer Woman.  It's just a journal of my life.  Somewhere to share my thoughts.  All the friends I've made along the way were an unexpected bonus.  Lately I just feel I need to take a little more control over who reads it.  A girl has to have some privacy right?

This is the only weekend in a 6 week period that we will be at home.  I'm sooooo looking forward to catching up around the house and taking a trip up to our neighborhood pool!

Happy Friday!

I want to get a tatoo on my foot also. But I have a reason and meaning behind mine. When you decide what you want we should go together!!!!

After this week I wouldn't blame you if you want private. I would still read!!!

And you should call your cell phone carrier to see if there is a way to archive those text messages. I bet you they have a way.

**hangs head in shame** I just purchased a new Coach. I know it isn't the one you wanted because mine isn't patterned but I still can't believe I spent the money. I need help.

Have a wonderful weekend at home my friend!

Yep I actually have read that Nora Roberts series. I liked the 1st two books, the 2nd two in the series I didn't think were as good but still quick, easy reads.

If I got a tattoo I would get it on my foot as well.

Dang it - I wrote a big long comment and then it said there was an error. Grrrrr.

I went private once before on my old blog. But soon decided to bring it back. I've been making a bit of money on my blog now for the first time and it feels good. But only because I want to be a writer and being paid for my writing feels amazing! I have no idea where it will lead but I'm going with the flow.

p.s. I hope you do join twitter and pinterest. They are so fun. The more people you follow on both the better!

I just recently fell victim to the whole pinterest/twitter thing - I actually enjoy it more than I thought I would!! I hope they are either able to fix your cell or find a way to save those messages:) Happy Friday!!

I think Twitter is fun, but I don't get in to it as much as some people do. I DO love Pinterest though! It is the biggest time suck I've come across in years...it's ridiculous!

I love pinterest, but twitter...I'm still getting use to. I don't know the rules or the point sometimes, but I'm giving it a whirl anyways.

I haven't gotten into those sites either. If you find out why they are so cool let me know haha =)

I've been thinking about the inside of my wrist for my next tattoo as well. Hmmm...too bad I don't know what I want.

Maybe you can save and print all the texts from your mom so you'll have them. What was the Coach pattern? I love their bags!
