Weekend Shenanigans (a day late)

Hey y'all,

So the computer is completely out of commission. Thursday night I tried to set it back to factory settings but it would not allow it to go to start Windows normally without making the blue screen of death appear, and Safe Mode will not re-set it up. It is really sad but after 5+ years and a few drops in my various dorm rooms, that computer has lasted through a lot. Now is the great computer search. So if I have spotty blog posts, you guys know why.

Now this weekend was filled with exciting things. First, Friday for lunch I tried out Tru deli. For those of you who have not been in the Chapel Hill area for a while, it is where P.T's Grille used to reside. It was really good and I loved the atmosphere, I would recommend you check it out. Friday night meant a relaxing night in. After a few trips to Target to check out some things (and scoring some sports bras for under $5 a piece) it was time to head home. I had been so busy lately and I definitely needed the rest so after I went to go check on the Chihuahua I was dog sitting I settled in for a night of Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders: Making the Team, I Found the Gown,  and SYTTD. It was pure bliss.

Saturday morning came and I got up to do a few chores (dishes) and then began getting ready for the UNC/ECU game. LC arrived and since she was looking adorable I dressed up. After some awful game day traffic we were able to head to the game and meet up with her parent's in their season ticket seats. While the game was not what I had hoped, there was ample amounts of people watching and I am sorry but there are some shades of blue that are not under the Carolina Blue umbrella #sorrynotsorry. After the game, I enjoyed a night in again with the book I am reading, On Folly Beach, and catching up on the Big Bang Theory, HIMYM & Elementary.

Sunday. Sunday was a hard day, to say the least. I have been babysitting two super sweet boys for months now and it was my last week with the family last Sunday and this Sunday I began working with another family in the same church. It was super difficult since my original two guys were both in the nursery with me as usual but they have now moved to MONTANA. Yep. They are gone. It was really tough hugging the little guys and saying goodbye. After that tough morning I ran off to the Verizon store to get my iPhone. Y'all, I had been living with an LG Chocolate for almost 4 years (yes I upgraded and then less than 6 months later my phone was lost in the library during my Senior year of undergrad). Since I was being kicked off my parent's plan I splurged for the iPhone 4s. 

After two hours in that store, yes two. Waiting on the list then having to be put back on after my parent's okayed my exit from their plan, I was seen by a manager with great customer service. Then it was checking on the puppy and an Officer Meeting with PBX. After a great conversation with the best guy friend it was time to go to bed. 

Now for your delight....

And, the kittens are here! My parent's kittens are visiting for the week and I am so excited, if you have begun to follow me on Instagram, I am sorry but it will be cat photos for the next week....

Guest Posting @ Monograms & Margaritas!

Hey y'all,

Sorry for the hiatus but I AM OFFICIALLY PACKED! I finished off the last box last night while watching Gilmore Girls (the episode where Logan is in the hospital thanks to the cliff dive in Costa Rica) and tomorrow I get my keys!!! So with all that exciting news my parent's had to text me last night that there is another member of the family. 

Welcome Home, Lily!

Now with all that exciting news, I have written a post on some great summer reads over on Ashley's blog since she is away enjoying her vacation! So go read it and tell me some books that you think should have made the list!

Meet Max: Crazy Cat Lady

Hey y'all,

Last weekend while I was home for the holidays I got to meet the newest member of my family. My parents adopted astray kitten at the beginning of the month. Long story short my parent's put down our family dog back in April and since then we have all wanted a new four-legged friend. However, it didn't work out well with my grandparents. So this winter we were all thinking my parent's would get a chocolate lab puppy since that was what my Dad wanted. But, a lady my mother volunteers with found this kitten and had been feeding him but he didn't get along with her cat so she asked my Mom if she wanted him. My dad is actually allergic to cats and has been on allergy shots for years but so far he has been fine with the new little guy. So here is Max!

Well I hope that everyone is getting ready for a safe New Year's Eve!
