SO WHAT! Wednesday!


This week I'm saying SO WHAT! If:
  • We're going back to Disney only 3 months after our last trip!
  • I think Hubs and I are more excited about said trip than the Tot.
  • We've already started planning and making reservations.
  • I just cannot get my mind into this work out thing....the more I think about it, the more I'd rather throw up in my mouth...lol!
  • Eating healthy is just going to have to work for me....because that's about all I can muster up. 
  • I have an obsession with writing utensils....I just spend like $20 last week on pens and fine tipped markers. Ouch!
  • I paid $.99 on the Beautiful Mess app yesterday. Yep!
  • I'm thinking I'll have to buy Chloe her spring/summer clothing early this year since we're going to FL in April....hmm...SHOPPING SPREE!
  • I have nothing else to say SO WHAT! To....

SO WHAT! Wednesday!


This week I'm saying SO WHAT! If:
  • I didn't make any New Years Resolutions.
  • My Only "Vow" to myself is to be better at being healthy in 2014. 
  • We've been gone for over a week....and our house is a mess....
  • Today is our last day off work and we have to clean, put clothes away and grocery shop....Happy New Years to us!
  • I made an order online at Kohls before we left for FL anticipating it to be delivered to FL....well, it was delivered to our house, and it's all summer clothes. AWESOME!
  • Today will be full of me cleaning and organizing and grocery shopping while Hubs watching the Winter Classic on TV....Yay! #sarcasmfont
  • I have a mini heart attack every time Chloe undresses her new princess barbies.....GAH! OCD in me wants to glue every single little piece on every one of them.
I think that's it for me this week...must get up and shower so I can get all this cleaning and shopping done today. Head on over to Shannon's page and tell us what you are saying SO WHAT! to this week.

SO WHAT! Wednesday!

This week I'm saying SO WHAT! If:
  • I'm sick....but I'm actually ok with it, because this means I won't be sick in 10 days when we leave for Florida.
  • I have a new blog design in the works....and I'm OH so exited!!!
  • I bought Chloe's Christmas Jams for FL in a size S instead of 4T because they didn't have 4T.....gah....she will be swimming in them, but ya know what...they will fit her NEXT year TOO!
  • I've become addicted to another store. It's called Simple Addication and it's amazing! Cheap, and super cute stuff!
  • I will pack Chloe's bags for FL this weekend, if I have the time.
  • We've slowly been giving Chloe Christmas presents here and there....oh well. It's amazing seeing her face light up.
  • Chloe is still addicted to Monster's Inc...like, hasn't shown an interest in Monster's University. LOL!
  • I made Hubs spend $20 on an Ugly Christmas Sweater that I will only wear once a year....if that.
  • I cannot wait to get in the car and drive for 2 days. Like, seriously, jokes aside, because that means, end result is warm and sun....and no work for 9 days!
  • I got MORE coffee cups for Christmas from my Secret Santa! YES!!!!!!!
That's all for me this week! Head over to Shannon's blog and tell us what you are saying SO WHAT! to this week!

SO WHAT! Wednesday!


Life After I Dew

This week I'm saying SO WHAT! If:
  • We bought Chloe Monsters University for Christmas, but instead of waiting, we just had to give it to her, only because we couldn't stand to watch Monster's Inc ONE MORE TIME!
  • I bought myself a pair of boots from Kohls.com 2 days after I went to the store and purchased another pair of boots....hey! I had $30 Kohls cash, and I got the 2nd pair for $8!! AND Free shipping!!
  • I don't own an Ugly Christmas Sweater....but I'm considering buying one because we're having an Ugly Christmas Sweater contest at work next Wednesday.
  • The Christmas lights on our second floor probably won't make it up this year....oh well...at least the rest are done and the tree is up.
  • I seriously want to make EVERY SINGLE thing on the Emeals Low Fat plan this week....EVERYTHING! And you could too...if you signed up! Still 30% off right now!!
  • I forgot to move Peach the Elf last night...so I had to wait until Chloe and Hubs left this morning to move her....she will get a nice surprise when she gets home :-)
  • I'm planning to put half of the bonus (that I MIGHT get) toward paying off my credit card...how sad is that? Ugh...wish I could take it ALL to Florida, but no....I have to be a grown up and pay bills first...lol!
  • I'm pretty certain that Hubs wants an Xbox for Christmas....but I refuse to spend the money....so I'm pretty sure he's going to buy it for himself...UGH!
  • I asked for a Dutch Oven, a food processor, and a Shark Steam Mop for Christmas from Andy's Dad...yea, boring  house stuff...
  • We're getting a Dishwasher from Andy's Mom for Christmas....call me crazy, but I AM pretty excited about that! Ours is a piece!!
Well, that's about it for me this week! Go over to Shannon's page and tell us what you are saing SO WHAT! to this week!

SO WHAT! Wednesday!

Life After I Dew
This week I'm saying SO WHAT! If:
  • Andy took himself to the ER for the second time in about 2 months last night.....yea
  • I'd rather it be busy at work today then slow just so the day goes by fast...but that's not going to happen.
  • I'm undecided on which outfit Chloe will wear to which Thanksgiving dinner....she has 2 options, and I can't make my mind up.
  • Instead of trying to be good and lose a lb or 2 before the holiday, I've been being bad....really really bad....
  • I know I've said it before....quite a few times, but I'm loving Emeals!!!
  • I strategically picked my outfits for this week so that I could wear leggings and comfy cami with a flowy cardigan for Thanksgiving.
  • I'm considering maybe taking Chloe to see Santa this weekend so she can wear her Christmas dress from last year, one last time. Since we'll be in FL for Christmas, she won't be wearing a long sleeve, floor length dress.... :-(
  • I just painted my nails 2 days ago, but considering painting them again today so they are fresh for the festivities tomorrow...they are already chipped....
I think that's about all I'm going to say SO WHAT to this week! I hope everyone has an amazing Holiday! We shall see you next week :-) Head on over to Shannon's page and tell us what YOU are saying SO WHAT! to this week.

This week I'm saying SO WHAT! If:


  • We got Chloe's hair cut over a week ago, and I'm impatiently waiting for the growth spurt to start.
  • My hair grows way too fast, and it REALLY annoys me that I have to get it cut/highlighted every 5 weeks.
  • I'm not looking forward to driving to FL in a MONTH from now...I just want to poof myself there....
  • I could not wait to watch the Originals....then I recorded 5 episodes and watched them all this weekend, and now I'm addicted and I can't wait for the next episode!
  • I bought myself a pink North Face Oso Hoodie for Christmas....from Amazon, 2nd day shipping because I'm that impatient....and Yes, I will be wearing it as soon as I get it. I cannot wait until Christmas.
  • I'm tempted to start packing Chloe's Florida bags....I mean, why not, right? She won't be wearing any of her spring/summer stuff in Michigan right now, right?
  • I'm constantly looking for tutu's and new leotards for Chloe for dance class....aaahhhh, it's an obsession now!
  • Chloe needs....YES, NEEDS a cute little Ballet bag. Any suggestions on where to find one, and not TOO overly expensive?

SO WHAT! Wednesday!

Life After I Dew

This week I'm saying SO WHAT! If:


  • I was going to make my Halloween costume this year, but ended up buying the major piece off Etsy.
  • Chloe keeps telling Hubs that she wants him to be Superman for Halloween....guess he's gonna be wearing a cape. LOL!
  • Chloe has a drug allergy...we're trying to work through it.
  • I have eaten literally, nothing but veggies for snacks and lunch this week, and I still feel like a fat ass after eating dinner most night. What gives?
  • I don't like 1 of Chloe's teachers at day care.....She's just too old fashioned for me and she makes me feel like I'm a failure of a Mother.
  • I can't afford Erin Condren this year. So I ordered my first Maybook.....and I'm pretty stoked about it. The price point is perfect for me, and it's a lot smaller and more like a pocket book, so for me, I have a feeling this will be perfect. We shall see when I get it. I'll review it once I do.
  • It's taken us over a year to get into the basement and start the re-mod. We're turning it into a play room, and I couldn't be more excited! Hubs bought the paint. We're doing a toned down "banana yellow"!!
Well, that's all for me this time. Head over to Shannon's page and tell us what you're saying SO WHAT! to this week!

SO WHAT! Wednesday!

Today I'm saying SO WHAT! If:

  • I'm already counting down the months and weeks and days till we leave for Fl....on December 21st. 
  • Hubs and I might be starting a Gluten Free diet soon....I'll keep you posted, and will most likely be asking questions if this does happen.
  • I am totally sick of Miley Cyrus....Buuuuut, I kind of like her new song Wrecking Ball (not her swinging naked on the wrecking ball in the video....just the song. LOL)
  • I'm wearing blue today.....We're having a team day at work. Based off how many years you've worked here, you wear a certain color. 1-5 years is green and 6-10 years is blue. My 6 year anniversary is October 1st, but I'm rocking my blue today. I don't care!
  • I want to go buy a whole new "leggings as pants wardrobe"
  • I'd rather have a Pumpkin drink from anywhere but Starbucks. Not sure why, but theirs in too spicy for me....weird, but true. Dunkin' has a BOMB one!
  • Trying to drink more water yesterday...goal is supposed to be a gallon a day. I made it to like 40 something ounces. UGH!
  • I'm eating a damn doughnut today!

So What! Wednesday!

I know it's been awhile since I posted a SWW, but I figured today is as good a day as any to get back in here, right? I mean, since it's Shannon's first day back, and all!
So, today I'm saying SO WHAT! If:

  • I am in love with the fact that Fall weather is right around the corner.
  • I haven't blogged in well over a month. Probably more. But we all need a break, right?
  • I believe that summer months is a reason in itself to not blog. Too busy enjoying my family.
  • I'm ready to start picking out colors and designs for my new blog design for fall. I do it every year, and this year won't be different. And I think a new design will help me to get back to blogging.
  • We're thinking about taking Chloe down to part time at her day care and putting her in a pre school part time. 
  • Hubs and I are doing a couples boudoir shoot....yep. October 6th....
  • I think Dunkin' Donuts Pumpkin Latte's are better then Starbucks. But I do like the Starbucks Salted Caramel Mocha.
  • I'm wearing leggings, a cardigan and boots with a tank top today....it's like Fall, but will be like summer....Not sure what else I could have worn. LOL!
  • We've been eating nothing but salads this week for dinner (and me for lunch) and I haven't budged in weight....UGH! WTF gives?! I need to get my stomach in photography shape in like 2 weeks....
Well, I think that's all for me today. Head over to Shannon's blog and tell us what YOU are saying SO WHAT! to this week!

So What Wednesday
This week I’m saying SO WHAT! If:

  • I really don’t need anymore makeup, I have some that I don’t even use….but when it comes to the Everlasting Mascara from Avon, I can’t help myself. It’s clearance right now, $3.99!! I got me 2 of them, and will be ordering more once I get paid! 
  • I’m scurred that I might have to stop selling Scentsy because it’s been slow for me, and if I don’t make $150 a month these next 2 months, I’m cancelled….this makes me SO sad! So, if you need anything, And I do mean ANYTHING! Please, help a sista out! www.cseed.scentsy.us 
  • Chloe slept in our bed last night….she woke up twice screaming and coughing, so it was just easier that way. We all got sleep….well…at least a few hours. Kind of. 
  • I HATE driving husbands car. Absolutely despise! His little V6 Journey does not compare to the power behind my V8 Explorer….so I cannot wait for my car to be out of the “hospital” today! I get her back and can drive her again tomorrow with new brakes and all fixed up! It took over $800 to get my Truck feeling better again. Oh well, she needed it. 
  • As broke as I’ve been, I’m still paying the $28 to get fresh organic food delivered to my door tomorrow. It’s that good, and I love getting that box on my porch every Thursday! Chloe loves the fruit, and I love that she’s eating Organic! So, thank you Door to Door Organics! 
  • I have talked my BFF Cassie into doing Zumba with me this Saturday morning since my MIL and SIL will be out of town. She’s excited and she knows it! 
  •  I went to the NKOTB concert along with 95% of the Metro Detroit area on Saturday, and Let me tell you, I had an effing blast! Words cannot express the love that I have for Donnie…still! Gosh, he’s hot! 
  • Last week and this week I’ve been doing my SWW post at work because Tuesdays have been just crazy for some reason, so I just don’t have the time at night to do it. That’s all for me this week.

SO WHAT! Wednesday!

So What Wednesday

This week I’m saying SO WHAT! If:

  • I almost didn’t write this post….hence it’s lateness….I passed out last night and didn’t feel like doing anything.
  • I’ve been sick all week, went home early from work Monday, and didn’t do a damn thing last night.
  •  I’ve been sucking it up, but last night, I just couldn’t…..I was lazy and didn’t do anything. Hubs took Chloe for a bike ride, made her dinner, gave her a bath and put her to bed. I was so grateful for that.
  •  I’m going to the NKOTB, 98 degrees and Boyz to Men concert Saturday….nuff said.
  • After we do Chloe’s room, we’re done painting for awhile. That shit is expensive, and it’s starting to rack up….
  • It’s taking us as far as taking toys away from Chloe to get her to poo on the potty….and she still has accidents most of the time. But when we remind her, she does go. We just have to keep on her….
  • Chloe has a mind of her own, and I know we’ve had an angel up to this point, but I’m really not looking forward to her turning 3. I’m pretty sure it’s all going downhill at that point. Terrible 2’s did not grace us, but I think the Terrible 3’s will….Lord help us!
  • Chloe had her first dentist appt on Monday….and I’m thanking the teeth God’s that she won’t be needing braces!!! The dentist said her teeth look perfect and her spaces are right where they need to be! YAY!!!!
  • I did Zumba last Saturday and I was pretty much dead on Sunday. COULD NOT MOVE!

So What Wednesday
This week I'm saying SO WHAT! If:

  • We did NOTHING this Memorial Day.
  • Hubs helped his Mom and Sister do some yard work.
  • We got our Mulch and yard work done.
  • Chloe still has been having problems pooing on the potty...up until last night, she magically decided she wanted to. We shall see if that continues.
  • I got paid on Friday and I was broke on Friday....love that. Stupid sickies keeping me home 2 days the week before.
  • We literally tried EVERYTHING to bribe Chloe to poo on the potty....even went as far as not letting her watch MMCH Monday night....
  • The only blog post I wrote/posted last week was my SWW post....I know I've been bad lately, and I will get better. It's just hard for me to sit and write when it's nice outside.
  • I finally passed the level I was stuck on in Candy Crush, so I've been obsessed with it lately.
  • Since we lost a majority of our food when our Fridge broke last week, the weekly grocery trip basically was just to replenish that, and I didn't get much of anything to cook with this week....oh well. I'll manage until this week's grocery trip and try to keep it on the cheap side.
  • It makes me sad that I can't help Chloe when she wakes from a night terror/growing pains in the middle of the night....but most of the time, all she wants is her Daddy.

  • My allergies are so bad that I feel like tearing my eyes and my throat out of my head!
  • I've had pretty much no real relaxing alone time since Andy's been out of town.
  • I accidentally hit the premium gas button yesterday and paid $0.30 more for gas....I was PISSED!
  • We get super excited around here when Chloe poops on the potty! Come on people...she needs the encouragement!
  • My MIL just got her Mother's Day card last night because I forgot that it was in my purse....
  • I'm really looking forward to Andy coming home on Thursday....I miss him!
  • I've been walking around looking like I have pink eye, but really it's just allergies.....I HATE IT!

This week I'm saying SO WHAT! If:

  • We went to a Limp Bizkit concert last Saturday...yes, I said it! And, it was AmaZING!
  • Pretty sure I've fallen asleep on the couch before 10 every night this week.
  • I started using a door to door delivery service for organic produce last week and it's amazing! Door to Door Organics! If they deliver in your area, I suggest you give them a try!
  • I'm going to the NKOTB, Boyz to Men and 98 degrees concert in a few weeks, and I'm pretty stoked!
  • Our Mother's Day was pretty low key.....we didn't do much of anything, and I was fine with that.
  • Chloe has been on allergy medicine, eye drops, and now antibiotics in hopes of figuring out why her eyes are still red.....pretty sure it's still allergies, but because I had pink eye, and her eye lids are still red, we had to call and her pediatrician decided to try an antibiotic.
  • There is a plus to Chloe being on allergy medicine.....she PASSES out before 8:30 almost every night!
  • Now I either have a cold, or allergies....and I'm not sure which. Gah, this Michigan weather can suck it! Just stay warm for God Sake! It's freakin MAY!!!!!

  • Chloe still needs to poop in a diaper. I don't care. We've mastered the peeing.....one step at a time!
  • Chloe's 3rd Birthday is in 3 months and I've yet to make ANY kind of plans....
  • I stayed home with Chloe on Monday to take her to the Dr after we already took her to Urgent Care on Sunday only to hear the same thing from her Pedi.
  • I've been a giddy Momma in the mornings now getting Chloe dressed in all her spring/summer clothes!
  • We've had to give Chloe allergy medicine and she's been sleepy at night....which makes me happy!
  • I'm happy to go to talk to my manager today and tell her I need to miss our mandatory meeting in June for Andy's graduation ceremony!
  • Somehow, someway I managed to gain like 2 lbs over the weekend....good Lord, what is wrong with me?!
  • I always seem to get a little nervous about people babysitting Chloe while we go out for the night...no matter who it is. Not sure why. But once about an hour passes and I don't get a phone call, I feel a lot better....and I have alcohol in me. That helps too! LOL

  • I just can't stop watching the train wreck that is Jenelle Evans on Teen Mom 2....
  • I might just go bat shit crazy if I have to clean shit out of one more pair of underwear. 
  • Chloe just doesn't get the concept of going poo in the toilet. But she's woken up the past few days dry, and she pees on the potty no problem at all....what gives?!
  • Hubs and I went out last weekend with my work girls and I got drunk with my boss. It was AWESOME!
  • I might just be a tad bit obsessed with food and trying new recipes now. But it's been all healthy, for the most part, so that's good.

SO WHAT! Wednesday!

So What Wednesday
This week I'm saying SO WHAT! If:

  • I have an obsession with meal planning....I literally get a high from having dinner written down in my planner like 2-3 weeks out.
  • I'm sitting in the dark, TV paused writing this right now while hubs puts Chloe down to bed....and I'm really enjoying just listening to the keyboard keys clicking.
  • I can't wait to place my Scentsy order at the end of the month so I can try the new Spring/Summer scents! Who wants some?!
  • I'm never actually hungry after I eat dinner, but nights when I know I can't eat....like tonight, because I have a physical tomorrow and I have to fast, yea...I'm starving right now. WHY?!?!
  • We have an orange bathroom, and I love it.
  • Chloe's room will be pink and white with black trim! I cannot wait! Next on the list to buy for her room will be a zebra lamp, and a name decal for her wall.
  • I always say that I'm going to use coupons when I go grocery shopping...but I still haven't.
  • Hubs kept Chloe home from school on Monday because she had a really bad diaper rash and cried to him that she didn't want to go to school because her butt hurt...lol! What a good daddy!
  • We're going to try potty training cold turkey at school next week.....jumping right in, head first! Teachers said that they have had good luck with it doing it this way, so we're going to try it! Most of the kids in Chloe's class are wearing undies to school now, so it's time!
  • Chloe stays dry when she's in a diaper and knows that she needs to potty, but when we put undies on her, she pees AND poops....I think she does it on purpose. Just to mess with me.
  • I'm starting to think about what I can get Chloe to wear on her birthday! Must be something good with tulle from Etsy, I think! Yep!
Alright, that's all for me! Head over to Shannon's page and tell us what you're saying SO WHAT! to this week....
And wish me luck that I make it without coffee till my Physical is done today. Appt is at 8:30 :-( I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to get a Venti from Starbucks on my way back into work :-/

So What Wednesday
This week I'm saying SO WHAT! If:

  • It took me a whole week to get back to eating right and healthy enough to lose a little bit of my vacation weight. Yes, I only gained 3 lbs, but I know it's going to take me at least a month to lose it...
  • I'm loving the fact that I can now ask (demand) the hubs to take Chloe up to bed now that he doesn't have homework to do all the time....oh I love that he's done with school!!!
  • I'm desperate for some orders, so here it goes. Guys, As you know, I sell Scentsy, and I have to make a goal of $150 a month now, and if I don't within 3 months, I'm cancelled on the 1st of the 4th month....so, please! If you need/want ANYTHING Scentsy, I'm your girl!!! www.cseed.scentsy.us
  • Chloe's 2.5 years old, and she's JUST now starting to like to eat what Mommy and Daddy eat for dinner. Thank you sweet Jesus!!
  • Our downstairs bathroom is now orange, and I'm in love with it!
  • I'm feverishly scouring Pinterest now because I'm in major home reno mood!!!! I want to change and fix EVERYTHING!
  • I can't wait to get Chloe's room painted....and get stuff decorated! I'm going to make it her Big Girl room and it's going to look so good!
  • Chloe shit on the floor last Friday. Yep, I said it.
  • Chloe's been off and on with potty training.....it's annoying, but we have our successful days, so it's ok.
