I am spending Halloween weekend like a grandma.


Halloween isn’t my favorite holiday of the year. I don’t dislike it, but I don’t love it. It’s just ok. Every year I am scrounging around last minute for a costume and let’s be real- none of them turn out that great. This year, none of that nonsense is taking place. Bocita is coming home tonight and we are having a relaxing weekend at home. He will be home late tonight, tomorrow he said we can do whatever I want to do.. so I need to give that some thought and Sunday he wants to play golf in the morning before he heads back to Louisisna. Funn stuff.

Why isn’t Bo home? He is a crane supervisor and work takes him several different places. Right now he is on a project in Louisiana that could last 2 months (time frames can always change). For the most part he will have weekends off so we can see each other. Last weekend I made the 5 hour drive and let me tell you, it was horrible. Driving that far for less than a 48 hour visit was exhausting. I had a few meltdowns on the way there and on the way home. I will invest in a flight next time, it is worth keeping my sanity.

Since I am on the subject of him working out of town, I will state that for the time being I am ok with it. For the first 6 months of this relationship (since April of this year) he was working in Houston which was perfect because he was home every night. This is the first time he will be out of town for longer than a week. And I will be honest, a week apart every once in a while, is not a bad thing. But 2 months, we shall see how this goes. Stay tuned…

Oh and ½ Marathon legit training starts next week. Tonight I plan on running 2 miles and Sunday I need to push for 3 to get a solid base under my belt. I need to download some good jams to get pumped because I just want to sit around and eat candy this weekend, but I will NOT.
 
Hope everyone has a Happy Halloween!!!

I am back.

I have great news for you guys/ whoever reads this gem of mine, I have time to blog again! We have hired more help at work so I am no longer everyone’s / for lack of better words/ bitch. It is just great.

This life of mine is turning out pretty great.. just some things to get you caught up.


Little sister started high school. She is just so grown up!
 Look at that transformation... and thank God our mother no longer dresses her. :) #bluejeanbaby
 Bo and I spent the weekend in New Orleans.


 

 Jillian and I went to the Katy Perry concert.



My Mom & Aaron got married... failed to get a pic of the groom... oops
 

"Nana" and great-grandma "Memaw"
 
I was in ANOTHER wedding...
 
 
That was pretty much a college reunion...
 

I moved into a new apartment with Bo-cita in September. Living together will be a post for another day. And I decided to just tell my father... oh the upcoming blog posts will be entertaining...


Bo turned 30! I got him some amazing TUMI luggage and buying luggage for someone is a sign of aging. It. Is. Sad.

Medium Trip Packing Case

“Fat & Happy” is in full effect so I signed up for a half marathon and bought new Brooks to get my butt motivated.


I am so excited to be back... I like having this portal to vent and document everything. I have missed it.

Hope everyone has a good Thursday!!
