Days of Pretty Street Love 1-5


Jumping right off of my last post.

When I was trying to reflect on the things that happened last year, I only remember about five great things...maybe.  That's pretty freaking sad when you think about it.  I know, for a fact, that I breathed in and lived out some beautiful events.  So much shenanigans, but none of it means anything if I can't remember them.  These are memories that may have made the difference between a smile and a tear...or an embarrassing story.

Here's what I do remember...

I went sky diving and survived.

I left a job that I loved, to work somewhere that promoted mental health.  I was afraid to leave my job and the clients that I served, but I've developed a new love and passion for my current clients.

With in this new job,  I've met some awesome people and I'm working to develop some new friendships!


I went to New Orleans- I'll have to write about that one day.

My Husband turned 30!

My Husband and I celebrated another year of a loving marriage.

That's it. That's 2013 in a nutshell, and yet, I know that there were so many wonderful things that happened.  Realizing that I've lost time, and precious moments, makes me feel like I didn't value those events.  Which, for the record, is not true.  I just suck at memory games.

Oh wait!   My brother got engaged!!  How could I forget that?  I've waited years for him to find "The One."  Years!!

So for 2014, I am going to make it a point to notice all the pretty things that are going on around me.  From nature to random acts of kindness.  From awesome outfits to little quotes of greatness.  From hang outs to spectacular nights in...I am going to notice.  I am going to write it down.  And I am going to remember it. So prepare yourself for some journal style writing (drawn out stories that are probably irrelevant to you, but hopefully still interesting enough to read)

It is now January 15, which means that 15 days of this year have already gone by.  I have some catching up to do. I'll break this up a bit, since it can get lengthy...and because I am all out of snarky and witty things to say. Shall we get this ball Rollin or what?!

1. Rang in the new year with money in my pocket, love in my heart and champagne in my glass!

2. Celebrated my 10 year anniversary with my husband!  Granted, we haven't been married for 10 years, but we try to do something small to acknowledge the milestones.  We relished in the day that he asked me to be his girlfriend...and that was awesome!

3.Had a little happy hour social with my bestie and mom right before I drove the bestie to the airport to catch her flight to the Dominican Republic!  Love those ladies.

4. No anniversary dinner for this girl, just the Playoffs at Buffalo Wild Wings!!!  And that was my choice!  Yea, I am THAT wife who is THAT cool.  I love the playoffs because that means there is football on Saturday AND Sunday!  Plus the waitress at BWW messed up our order, so the hubs and I got 20 wings, French fries and fried pickles for free!!  No, we didn't eat it all.  Dont judge.  Trust me, we tried.  We just washed it down with some seasonal Drafts!  Can't complain.

5. More Football!  The Niners beat the Packers and the world was put back in order!  Woo, that game was so good, stressful and tense, but good none the less!  Needless to say, we are Niner fans (we also love the Broncos when they arent playing the Niners) in this house and that game made us scream and shout!  On to those kitties (panthers).  On another note, my bestie turned 30!  I wasn't there to celebrate it with her, but I know that she was having a blast!

Still with me?
