sunglasses

A few months ago I purchased a pair of sunglasses I had been eyeing for a while. They went on sale below $20, so I was excited. The other day I sat on them and I broke them. Then I was telling Michael how I was frustrated because the more I spend on sunglasses the faster they break. I remembered receiving a pair for Christmas and they were probably the most expensive pair I've owned, but still under $50, and they broke within the first month. I was showing him the sunglasses I got in Vegas that I paid $3 for and they are still in great condition. Then he pointed out how the pair that has lasted the longest was the pair I FOUND 5 years ago... So if you want great luck with not breaking your sunglasses, spend less... I definitely don't think we will be splurging on a pair anytime soon.

$50 pair- less than a month
$15 pair- a few months
$3 pair- 1 year and counting
FREE- 5 years and counting

I tried doing a "follow by e-mail" thing and I don't think it is working. SO for those who would like to be e-mailed when I do a new post, please let me know and I will add you myself. Then you won't have to miss any new blog posts because I know when blogs go private people often stop reading them because they don't come up on your blogger feed anymore. So comment below if you'd like to get an e-mail whenever I make a new post.

burnt food

I woke up this morning to the sickest smell. After I got up I realized it was a big pot of seriously burnt oatmeal. Michael must have put it on then went and took a shower while it was cooking on accident. YUCK, it's making my stomach feel sick.

It reminds me of a time in high school that my friends still make fun of me for. My mom decided to cook up some hamburger first thing in the morning before we all left the house, so it was ready to make spaghetti in the evening, but she burnt it. I don't know if you smelled SERIOUSLY burnt hamburger but it was SICK. My bedroom was in the basement so I was only upstairs for a couple minutes before leaving the house in the morning. Everywhere I went at school I was turning heads. I had someone near me in the halls comment that something smelled like "fish" (obviously they don't know what they are talking about, haha), and many others kept wondering what "that smell" was. It was so embarrassing for me that I called my mom and made her come get me at lunch so I could go home and shower. Now my friends and I talk about it and laugh, and lets be honest, it is kind of funny.

So that's what I'm flashing back to today...

Homeowners

We bought a house!!!!!!! We are so so soooo excited about it. We take possession April 1 which gives us enough time to do a bit of updating before the baby comes. It's got pink walls and pink carpet, but we are excited to make the changes to it. We will post before and after photos once we are in and have updated it a little bit! These next two months are going to be insane for us. Along with the move, I am a bridesmaid for my best friend Nikki's wedding at the end of this month, and then a few short weeks after that we are welcoming son #2. Wish us luck!
