Christmas Weekend
| My Sunday morning breakfast of champions! |
Does anyone else still feel like they’re in a Christmas coma?!
Christmas was very good to me. I got everything on my list and then some! I also got the best gift: 3 days of laying on the couch! #solazy
Speaking of lazy: Saturday, my husband and I discovered Once Upon A Time on Netflix and watched like 8 episodes back to back. We’re hooked!
Aaand to end this blog post on a hilarious note, here’s a #selfie of my cat, Cobalt. I love the front facing camera option!

Wedding
This picture is legendary for so many reasons:
- Gretchen, who is the one with her hand up.
- Kyle, her brother, who is dancing with her and has his tongue out.
- Chris, the mother of Kyle, Gretchen and the groom back there. She’s the one with the crazy look on her face.
- The bride and groom, completely oblivious to the awesomeness that is going on right in front of them.
As you can probably tell, we went to a wedding this weekend. It was awesome.
The wedding DJs are my heroes. They played “John Deere Greene” and “Tik Tok” back to back. They even played “Ice Ice Baby”. I also may have found out the hard way that the “Macarena” could be my personal field sobriety test. If my soberness is ever in question, just ask me to do the “Macarena”. If I can do it, I’m sober.
The wedding was all kinds of fun and we were home by 8:30PM! That’s totally my kind of night!

4th of July Weekend
Happy Tuesday!
I had an awesome 4th of July weekend!
Friday, I went with my husband and parents to Roger’s Market. It was my first time there, and it was the best. There were so many vendors there and so many customers! We were there mostly all day and didn’t even see everything.
At Roger’s, there was a guy playing an accordion! I wish I had gotten his name. Missed connections, anyone? I want to know more about him. Does he play professionally? Does he have a band? He was kick ass on the accordion!
After Roger’s, we came home for about 5 minutes to switch cars and then went to the Dustin Lynch concert at Conneaut Lake Park. My husband and I just went. Obviously, my parents weren’t lustin’ for Dustin! There were other bands there as well, which made the time go by really fast. The other bands were Rick Ramsey, Mayflower Hill, and Country Redford. They were all so great. Dustin’s set was so cool because he played a lot of covers. My favorites were the Garth Brooks covers. I’m such a huge fan of Garth and obviously Dustin is too. I look forward to going to future concerts at Conneaut Lake Park.
Saturday was relaxing. We just mowed the yard and relaxed most of the day.
Sunday, it was back to work for me, and after that, my family and I baled hay. That’s always a fun time! We don’t put up a lot of hay so it’s not really overwhelming.
I would say that it was a great Independence Day weekend!

This Is What Happened
Aaaand I'm back! It's been way too long!
I'm enjoying a lovely staycation this week where I've been watching "Sons of Anarchy" and "Lie to Me".
First up, "Sons of Anarchy". How did I avoid this show for so long?! It's so great! "Lie to Me": I love it! I'm such a huge fan of crime dramas anyway so this show is right up my alley. Can we also talk about "The Walking Dead"? I wasn't a huge fan this season, but with the midseason premiere, I'm hooked again! I feel like I've been through so much with this group. Can you tell I become way too involved with fictional characters?
Also, this happened:
I turned 27 on Monday. I'm not sure I want to talk about that number. I think I may have finally reached the age where I'm dreading my birthday. There's so much that I feel like I should have accomplished by now and one of these years, I'm going to have to face the whole "having kids" thing. Maybe I'm old enough now that people are going to stop asking? Probably not.
Also, that cake? Completely cracked and lopsided. Thanks, mom! No, really, my mom is a great cook. I don't know what happened there. She used to be the go to person for cake making/decorating. It tasted great, though, and that's all that matters.
In country music news, I just want to give a little shout out to The Dusty Armadillo for hosting Eric Church this Thursday for one of his album release concerts. Eric is going to put on shows in six cities in two days to promote his latest album, "The Outsiders". It sounds like it's going to be a fun time for everyone involved and I think it's so cool that Eric is putting on these shows. I saw him on the Jägermeister tour (with my boys Josh Thompson, Sean Patrick McGraw and Rick Monroe) a few years ago and he puts on a good show. I even saw him before the show from afar and waved to him and his wife and they waved back! I was so star struck! I also have to add that Chris Cavanaugh is opening for Eric. I've seen him live before and he's great! He also tweets me sometimes, which is really cool!

This is my life
Aaaand this is my Saturday afternoon:
A cold drink and some TV. Love.
I'm like this only because this is going on outside:
Can someone just come and get me when winter is over?

It's Just Me
You guys! How is it Thursday already?! We're about to embark on another weekend & I haven't even told you about last weekend! It was so awesome too! Here's some highlights:
Friday
We went to visit my uncle in the hospital. He's doing a lot better. He still has a long road to recovery, but he's really lucky. Here's the text my cousin got from her mom yesterday:
& she just posted this one of her dad at home:
----------
We went to the mall where we blocked in by another car:
We're the Subaru.
Confession time: I'm a terrible driver. I mean, seriously. The. Worst. But I have never purposely blocked another car in a parking spot. When Red Car finally got out there to move her vehicle, she was mad at us! In what world is that our fault?
----------
Saturday
Concert time! We went to see Josh Thompson at The Dusty Armadillo in Rootstown, Ohio. I absolutely adore Josh & try to see him live as much as possible. I also adore The Dusty Armadillo & the Rootstown area in general. It's just far enough away from home to feel like a vacation, yet close enough to feel like home. Does that make sense?
The concert was so great. Sydney Hutchko opened the show. She was awesome. She sang some originals & did some awesome covers of "Hell on Heels", "Mama's Broken Heart" & "These Boots Are Made For Walkin'" where she did a spot on Jessica Simpson impersonation! It was hilarious!
Josh was great as always. He sang a bunch of new songs from his forthcoming album. It was great to hear the new stuff. He also played his hits from his album "Way Out Here". He really knows how to get the crowd going. His band also participates with the audience, which is really cool. He did a great cover of "Modern Day Bonnie & Clyde".
I wish I had more photos, but I misplaced my camera cord so all I have are cell phone pictures! I don't have any phone pics of Sydney Hutchko, either, but check out her site. She's gorgeous!
We left immediately after the concert. I was absolutely exhausted because I was awake since 5am! I work mornings, so I'm awake that early even on my days off! We got back to the hotel at about midnight & fell right asleep. I slept really good, which is unusual for me anymore. We hit up the free hotel breakfast on Sunday morning & were back home by 10:30AM. It was awesome!
--------
This week has been flying by. It's the same routine: Work. Quick Dinner. TV. Sleep. Repeat! I'm off work tomorrow, so that's nice! It's also Snow City out my way, so not having to drive in it absolutely rocks. Have a wonderful weekend. :)

Weekend Recap
My weekend was a fairly lazy one.
Friday, I watched the first season of "Breaking Bad". Holy cow! Where has this show been all my life? I knew I wanted to watch it for some time so I've tried to avoid any spoilers. I didn't realize it would be so deep. I'm definitely hooked!
Saturday, I went over to my parents' for pizza and a movie. We watched "The Last Stand". It was so good.
Also on Saturday, my family received some tragic news. My uncle was in a vehicle accident in his water truck at work and is currently in the ICU. He was just moved to the ICU this afternoon when the doctors found out that he has pneumonia. He has a long road of recovery ahead. Any good thoughts/prayers would be appreciated.

Weekend Shenanigans
The weekend was a
pretty uneventful one for me.
Saturday, I stayed in all day. I watched two movies on Netflix: "Devil's Pass" and "Me Again". They were both fairly decent movies. Even though I'm not a religious person, for some reason I really get into those religious kind of movies.
With that being said, I also spent a ton of time playing Grand Theft Auto V over the weekend. Let me tell you, "Grand Theft" and I go way back. I was introduced to the series by my high school boyfriend. He played GTA3 on his PlayStation 2. I wanted to play the game, but I only had the original PlayStation, so I went to the game store and found a Grand Theft Auto compatible with my system: GTA2. Holy boxy cars, Batman! I eventually got GTA3, but GTA2 holds a special place in my heart. Can we talk about GTA V for a sec, though?! It's so crazy! And there's a dog that I can hang out with!
Both the game and I have come a long way since the days of the box looking car!
I always work on Sundays so I don't really consider it part of my weekend. I just worked & then went to the new Dunkin Donuts in town. I just can't say no to doughnuts!
