Why do I love JEANS so much?


Yes, I'm the one on the left, yes those are overalls, yes I wish they were still appropriate to wear...
Every day I wake up for work and have to decide what I’m going to wear...  Slacks, skirt, dress, crop pants, which top / Tucked in, not tucked in / Should I wear a jacket or a cardigan or just the blouse by itself / Heels or flats / open –toe or closed-toe?? The options seem to be endless, but there is one thing lacking from my list JEANS!

Oh the coveted jeans…

You see, I have to dress up every day at work, which really isn’t as bad as it sounds, I actually don’t mind it at all.  There’s just something about wearing jeans to work that I love…

A dress? Yes, most comfortable thing you could possibly wear it’s basically like wearing a nightgown in public – much more comfortable than jeans!

Skirt and a top? Easy, almost as comfortable as a dress, but not quite

Dress Pants – LOVE! They are so cottony and comfortable, they don’t chaffe my legs or suffocate the bottom of my ankles- definitely more comfortable than jeans…
So, what is it that I LOVE about these things called Jeans??

Denim – depending on if it’s stretchy or not isn’t ALWAYS the most comfortable thing in the world

Maybe it’s that fact that you can wear denim so many different ways…
  • Dacket (Denim Jacket)
  • Jorts (Jean Shorts)
  • Jirt (aka chambray aka Jean shirt)
  • Japris (Jean capris)
  • Dirt (Denim Skirt)
  • Doveralls (Denim overalls, DUH)
I mean you can’t take a pair of slacks, cut them off and wear them as shorts… ( You COULD, but the real question is SHOULD YOU??)

You can’t take a dress and wear it as a chambray top.

So, what is it about Jeans that makes me love them so much??

Is it the versatility of the material that I’m so fond of??  Maybe it’s the fact that Americans have been wearing jeans since the 18th century and I love “being a part of history” (NOT)? Maybe it’s the fact that you can make jeans look country or classy?

I don’t know what it is about jeans that I love so much, but the fact is I LOVE JEANS! I've been wearing them since the 1980's and I'm going to continue wearing them until my muffin top won't fit in a pair anymore.

And with that I'll leave you with an entire family photo of Jeans:

Why I should be a Real Housewife


I love drinking Champs and by Champs I mean Andre Dry Sparkling Champagne.  Ya know the kind that’s $4.99 a bottle, yeah I like that.  Maybe I would switch to Rose if I was a housewife, I dunno the jury’s out on that one…

I’m VERY opinionated.  90% of the time I actually say what I’m thinking, I would definitely get in some cat fights...



I was born to be a Stay at Home Wife.  I think I would do an excellent job being in charge of maids, kitchen staff, pool boys, nannies etc. I would lounge by the pool all day with Champs in hand and a Bud Light in the other.

I have long blonde hair, isn't that a requirement for the RHOC?

I’m very flexible, I would have no problem going on impromptu vacations to Costa Rica, Vegas, Paris, you name it, I’ll be there!

I am perfectly fine with Day drinking, all day everyday...


I could totally design my own line of something.  Hmm… Alcohol, purses, perfume, makeup, clothing, personal toys, the possibilities are endless….  I think I would design my own lipstick line infused with alcohol.  Somehow when you apply it, you get a little shot of Alcohol. Yeah that’s it Alcohol Infused Lip Plump.  The Flavors would be: Sex on the beach, Cosmopolitan, Daiquiri, Margarita, Natural Light (for the redneck woman) – what do you think, would you buy this?

I could be a news anchor; I mean seriously I would HAVE to be better than Alexis. That was just plain embarrassing! She claims that she quit, but I guarantee she was asked to leave…


Instead of an All White Party I would host an All Pink Party, OBVIOUSLY!  This would Include pink panthers, flamingos, girls with their body painted in different shades of pink.  Everyone would HAVE to wear pink. Piece of cake!

Could you be a Real Housewife??

Tip-toe or Jump??



You might be wondering what the title of the post means, can you take a guess?

Jeopardy music plays…

Doo doo doo do do do do doo doo doo doo do DO dodododo wahhh wahh wahhh….



Seriously, did I just type do-do over and over again, why yes I did… You get the point and you’re probably humming the jeopardy song right now!

With the recent increase in temperatures I made it a point to go to the pool this weekend! Our neighborhood just built an all adult pool and it is GLORIOUS!  Don’t worry I don’t have anything against kids, it’s just nice to have a relaxing place at the pool away from them.  You’re not getting splashed, kicked, jumped on, etc…. You can imagine!


I wasn’t planning on getting in, but I thought WHY NOT!? I mean you only live once and in TX the water temperature will be like bath water by the beginning of June! 

I stuck my little toe in and immediately decided it was too cold.

Then I thought oh what the heck just jump!

Do it!

Just JUMP IN….



It’s not that cold... (atleast that's what I was telling myself...)


So there I went barreling my whole body into the very cold pool and enjoyed every second of it.
I even had the opportunity to get splash my friend while she was just trying to ease herself into the water.  Yeah, I’m THAT person!

Sorry, my friend has her eyes closed, it was REALLY bright!!!
Did you go swimming this weekend?
PS - Sorry for all the GIF's I just couldn't stop myself

Let me Introduce You...

I haven't posted anything since last Thursday and I'm getting the blogging bug.  Therefore since I have absolutely nothing planned for the day I'm going to break my cardinal of blogging things you already posted on Instagram!  Shoot, I never should have made that rule for myself, that was stupid...

Anywho, I organized my closet last weekend and discovered my plethora of clothes that had been hiding from me for the last 6 months, so I decided I needed some new shoes to go with all my newly found clothing!

Let me introduce you to:


Goldilocks (yes I just named my shoes)
$20


And Blue Spike
Wow, glad I didn't work too hard getting creative on that name....

$30

What do you think of my new shoes?

90 Miles in 90 Days


Today I want to Publicly Shame myself for not working out.  There I said it, I’ve been slacking (like a lot)…  Last week I only went to the gym once and the week before I only went once, LOSER!



This week I’ve done better:
Tuesday: 1 hour Body Combat

Wednesday: 30 Minutes CX Worx (If you go to 24 hour, you should try this class, it was AWESOME) / Ran 1 mile on the treadmill AKA Dreadmill

Thursday: My plan is 1 hour of Body Combat, if someone tempts me with Happy Hour I’m sure I will do that instead...


By March 21st I had 32 miles, I totally beat my 30 miles in 30 days challenge and decided to challenge myself to 90 miles in 90 days. Now I’m realizing that was almost a MONTH ago, seriously where does the time go???

Here’s what I’ve done since then –
3/23 – 3.28 miles on treadmill
3/24 – 4 miles on treadmill
3/25 5 miles on treadmill
3/30 4.25 miles on treadmill
4/1 5 miles on treadmill
4/17 – 1 mile on treadmill

My total so far is 50 Miles!!! (Not as Bad as I thought)

I worked really hard in the beginning, then slacked and now I’m back on it, back on track for 90 miles in 90 days!  40 miles to go in the next 43 days, I can do this, because I don't want to feel like this anymore...
