Wishful Wednesday

'I wish' .... I had the start-up funds to build that company I have always dreamt about, and it would be a....

Street Cafe

called

~Sassy Cafe~

A little store that is next to an alley so I can decorate it like this!
I would serve yummy sammies & treats
And possibly have a little gift shop inside. =)



I remember going to St.Maarten with my parents and sister back in the day, and we ate the the Kangaroo Court Cafe... it was in a little alley like this picture. And too this day I have not had a chicken salad sandwich that tasted better then theirs!



Happy Hump Day peeps!


~ciao bitches

breath of fresh air...

I am super excited!

After 2 years of my W-2 forms being screwed (thanks to an incompetent former employee who is no longer here) and only receiving $300 each year instead of over $1000 that I am use too. I am FINALLY back on track! And boy lemme tell you it feels GREAT!

Not that I am going to see any of that money, because it is going straight to my credit card! (yes, I know! I get an at'ta girl for being so responsible)

My 1st Resolution for the New Year to be debt free is only a month and a half away! And I am already starting to feel a great deal of relief!


Chris's shoulder is doing semi better. Thank you for all the well wishes for him! Just F.Y.I he is a big baby... how much could it possibly hurt to have a 2ND degree sprain?? (which he has) I mean seriously... suck it up buttercup!

Yesterday, afternoon he called to give me the results from the Doctor about his shoulder and he starts it off like this...

C: Well looks like I broke my shoulder

Me: What?

C: Yeah, the Doctor said I broke it, and I will be in a sling or 6 to 8 weeks

Me: Oh, babe I'm so sorry

C: So it looks like you'll have to wipe my booty when I use the restroom!

Me: Ummm... okay!

C: Just kidding babe, It's sprained... she taped me up real good I have to go back in three weeks to see her.

Me: Good cause I really wasn't looking forward to wiping your ass... I mean I would if it came down to it, but I wasn't looking forward to it.

Happy Tuesday ya'll

Snowshoe Recap

As I type this little blog... Chris is staring at himself in the mirror trying to see if he dislocated his shoulder from his "awesome snowboarding skills"! Ha ha ha ha..... and I'm not kidding.. he totally is. More on that later.



We had a great time even if it was freezing outside.

Here are some pictures from the weekend. Just a quick little snap shot of the condos we stayed at...

Highland House Condos, where we stayed....

Again another shot of the condos.... right smack dab on the slopes.....

Just thought this tree was cute...

Our friend Matt with "eye" cicles on his lashes and brows..

Chris and Cat.... we taught her how to snowboard, since her BF was a little impatient. =)

Just a picture of the view..

Christopher posing with his new board....

Cat & I .... figured I would take a picture with the board so it looked like I actually did something this weekend...

And a picture of Christopher and I....

So going on about Chris and his dislocated shoulder.... Chris is literally good at EVERYTHING.. (my serious face is on when I say that too) so for him to hurt his shoulder in the trick park is a BIG ego crusher for him!

Poor thing only had 8 runs in when he hurt his shoulder, so I think he was a little upset that he didn't get to spend the whole day on the slopes like he had planned.

This is what happened in his words...

"Babe I was doing so well.. I landed the trick 5 times before I hurt myself... I jumped up on the box and my board caught the end of it, and it through me off a little bit. But when I landed my shoulder caught my fall and I felt something pop out and then pop back in."

My response to him.....

1.) your name isn't Shawn White! 2.) your not 21 anymore crusty! 3.) apparently your not that nasty at boarding! =)

He only had a probably with the 3rd answer I gave him! =)

I hope everyone had a lovely weekend! I have tons of reading and catching up to do.

Happy Monday!

Motivational words from my sister and boyfriend

Last night while chit chatting with my Christopher and sister last night, I mentioned .. okay not really mentioned, but told him that I wanted a gym membership for either Valentines Day or my Birthday.
(But now thinking about it... I don't want to wait for a month or two.. I want it now)

I suuriously....... need to lose some weight.

And as I mentioned before, it is one of my NYE Resolutions (along with a billion other people).

I am sad to say that I need to lose a whopping 25 lbs. (And that's not just being harsh on myself.. that's gods honest truth)

So after Chris lecturing me about what I need to do when I go to the gym... blah blah blah.... what not to eat.... blah blah blah..... and how to burn the calories blah blah blah.....

I think I finally got it through his head that I was serious. And when he asked why (like he is oblivious to the cottage cheese on my legs, or my cafeteria lady arms (no offense if any of you work in a cafeteria))

Me: well.... ummm .... because I've gained 20lbs

C: you got a little to comfortable didn't you....

Me: thanks dick

My sister: can you see Carrie at the gym?! Chris wanna make a bet? I say she will only go 3 times!

C: I don't need to bet, cause I am sure that's what will happen!

Me: thanks you two.... both of you are dicks!

So I think that little NON - MOTIVATIONAL reassurance from both my boyfriend and my sister, makes me want to work even harder at it!

I WILL lose 15 lbs before my 30th Birthday on MARCH 9th!

Happy HuMp Day everyone!

Chris and I went pretty low key this year, which was nice since I was/am battling a cold.

I did take pictures, but I didn't like any of them, so I stole this from my girlfriend Kerri. =)

Have a fabulous Tuesday everyone!
