Let's Confess

Have I mentioned yet how excited I am to have a confessions link-up again? Because I'm excited. Thank you to Melissa for hosting, whom I found through Nadine! Also linking up with Bella! Thanks ladies!

- I've already had to use white-out in my 2015 planner. ::sad face:: I really need to remember to buy some mini post-its next time I'm at the store.

- I totally cheated on my eating plan with Chili's on Monday night because Hello, College Football National Championship. Must watch, and we don't have cable, so Chili's it is. Yes, I am aware I could have ordered a lean protein and veggie and had water instead of Dr. Pepper and Quesadillas. Shut up.

(Why do spell check and auto-correct keep trying to tell me that Quesadillas is not a word?? I mean I get that it's technically another language, but come on, if we can add "selfie" to our dictionary, we can add Quesadillas.)

- I may have just taken our Christmas tree and other decorations down this past weekend. But I can neither confirm nor deny this.

- I also may not have even noticed until he told me on Saturday that Adam had taken the lights down off the house the week before. I'm real observant like that.

- Other than checking in with my 21 Day Fix group I haven't been on Facebook in a week now and I really don't miss it. I'm just kind of over it. I found myself getting easily annoyed with pretty much everything people were posting, so I decided I needed a little break. I'm trying to decide how to proceed because it is a good way to keep up with people, but should I try to keep up with people more by, I don't know, talking to them instead?? (And no, I did not announce that I was leaving Facebook and make a big deal out of it)

- Is it bad that it's only two weeks into the new year and I already want to take a day off of work?

- I'm starting to get the itch for cake decorating again. It started with Christmas and realizing I was actually enjoying the baking I did for the neighbors. Now I'm starting to look at pictures of pretty cakes again and my brain automatically starts dissecting the design and figuring out how they did it. From here it's probably only a short step to volunteering to making a cake for someone just so I can practice some new decorating technique I saw on Pinterest.

Confessions in memes:

Confessions

1. I'm kind of geeking out about the fact that I have 12 Bloglovin' followers. 12! I know, I'm a cute little baby blogger.

2. I'm having a serious vacation hangover this week. Like, it's bad! And I don't even drink alcohol! Although I did eat A LOT of carbs last week...maybe it's a massive carb coma. I'm just feeling so out of it and my mind is elsewhere. I'll probably snap out of it about the time the weekend rolls around again, so that's convenient.

3. We have a wedding cake to do this weekend and there is nothing I would like to do less right now. My heart's just not in the cake business these days. We've pretty much stopped taking jobs and are just finishing up the jobs we already had scheduled. It's kind of sad because it used to be a passion of mine, but I got SO burned out. I think I just need a break from it and maybe someday I will want to do it again.

4. We FINALLY got a Trader Joe's here!!! And all I want to do is go buy everything, but I'm kind of afraid to for my wallet's sake. But Amanda posted about the pumpkin cornbread croutons so now I have to. Also, THIS STUFF RIGHT HERE:

Butter that is made of cookies?! This can only be good.

5. The radio station I listen to in the mornings is doing their pledge drive thing this week so I've pretty much tuned out until next week. I know that probably makes me a bad person but they play about a quarter of the music they usually play, and instead of their usual morning banter which is fun, they are talking about pledges the whole time and it gets old real fast! I mean I get that they need support and I do appreciate them but I can only take so much of that!

6. I LOVE decorating for Fall but I still haven't really done anything decorating-wise to the house. Since we just got back from vacation AND our house it's kind of a disaster right now (we're still in the process of organizing and going through all of the stuff from our cake shop that we closed last year, but that's a story for another day), so it's hard to be motivated to decorate when everything is everywhere. It's kind of like being in the middle of a move to a new place, except we're not and we just have a ton of crap with not enough to space to fit it in.

7. I made a Facebook page for the blog a couple of weeks ago, pretty much just so I could link to it on that sidebar thingy I made (Thanks to Sarah at VTIM for her fabulous tutorial on that!!) and have done absolutely NOTHING with it. I should really post something or...something.

8. Last week in the hotel room after we got back from the parks we watched episode after episode of this show called Forensic Files which is one of those crime story shows where they show you what happened and how they figured it out and all that. Those shows are seriously addictive to me, and I'm not sure why but it's a little scary how much I like them.

9. We also watched Mean Girls and though I've seen it probably a jillion times (yes, a JILLION 'cause that's a real number) I laughed just as hard as the first time I saw it. That movie never gets old.

10. Wow, I always start these posts thinking "What am I going to confess about this week, I've got nothing because I'm pretty boring" and then I end up with a pretty long list of stuff (which let's face it, is still pretty boring I'm sure). It's like therapy.

You should link up with us, 'cause it's the cool thing to do.

It's confession time!

So it's Wednesday, time to confess stuff!

•  I went to the chiropractor yesterday to get my back adjusted (Hallelu!), so I should be able to start working out normally again in a day or two. Part of me is genuinely like "Yay, I can work out again!" and the other part of me is like "Actually I was kind of enjoying taking it easy..."

• I've pretty much mentally checked out at work at this point because all I can think about is the 3-day weekend coming up and our anniversary trip!

•  I'm really excited about fall for many reasons- one of them is being able to wear pants, long dresses, and boots all the time, 'cause let's face it, shaving your legs everyday gets old real fast.

•  I have such a love/hate relationship with Facebook going on right now. I love being able to stay connected and keep up with family and friends, but if I'm on it too much I start to get irrationally angry at a lot of the posts because I'm like "Why does everyone have to express their opinion on everything?" Plus it's just a gigantic time vacuum.

•  I seriously have banned myself from WebMD and pretty much any googling of symptoms, sickness, etc. because I always manage to convince myself that I have some heinous disease.

• I won't be super sad if the really super skinny jeans go out of style because I have too much hips and butt for them and I straight up look like Tweedledee and Tweedledum when I try them on. Not cute. 

This is therapeutic! Thanks for listening! :)
