Updates!

So I decided to change my layout, this one is much easier to look at. The other one, which I thought was really cute, was also really complicated. I'm looking at my list of things to do and I'm finding a few things a problem:
As far as the Shape Ups go... I'm not crazy about that fad anymore. Plus I'm going to the gym on the regular and don't really feel the need to add shape up work on top of it all.
I was planning a wedding for my friend, and let's just say it fell through... And I don't have any more friends lined up to get married any time soon, so I don't know when THAT will happen. I may just go ahead and take the class instead. I hope to try to plan one in the next two years, but I don't have control over if it will happen or not.
I don't know anyone with a stick shift car... so learning to drive one might be difficult. I could test drive one... but I don't think they let you learn to drive stick during a test drive. Although I really want to learn someday, I don't want to feel pressured by having it on a list to accomplish in 2 years.

Ok here's how I feel about this list. Things in your life change, and therefore, your want/need to do things change as well. So instead of feeling like I'm 'giving up' on some of these, I just don't want to try to accomplish them as much as I'd like to try to accomplish other things.

I am booting 4 things off my list:
Stick shift
Shape up's
Arbonne Area Manager
Plan A Wedding

And adding 4 more:
Climb A Light House
Bring Scrapbooks Up To Date
Take Wedding Planning Class
Make A Scarf

Those are much better.
PS- My garden is growing really well! And I have alot of recipies I want to try. I'm in between 4 books right now... so when I get a minute to relax, I'll start wrapping them up. And I don't think getting a guitar and learning how to play it was on my list, BUT I GOT ONE. I love it. And I'm learning how to play it.

Happy Birthday to me!!

Tried some more wines!!


Chocolate Vino! It's a mix of chocolates and red wines. Let me tell you, this stuff is amazing. It's really strong. You think it's innocent because it looks like chocolate milk, but BAM. It's crazy. It's like Bailey's but not as thick. Totally an amazing after dinner buzz-worthy wine.
Oh yeah, and that's one of my birthday cakes... it's also chocolate, and they went really well together!!


Gallo White Merlot 2008- it's really sweet in a kool-aid way. It wasn't my favorite but it will go down easy if you don't like wine very much. It wasn't very dry, but it just didn't go well with the pasta we had.

"oh girl, it's yo brithday open wide, I know ya thirsty! Say ahh!"
