Oh, Monday

I am really not a fan of waking up to snow...only when I am in the mountains for snow skiing do I enjoy snow. In Oklahoma, where we had that blizzard last year and I was snowed in for a few days...I do not enjoy snow. 
Maybe if I got a snow day and could stay home, I might enjoy it more. 

I'm just a summer girl, though...I hope all you winter people enjoyed your snow day...and I guess I can't really complain because we have had a great winter, I mean...this really is the first "wintery" day we have had...so I'll stop complaining now.

Let me tell you about my oh so exciting weekend....it was spent...doing absolutely nothing...and I LOVED it.

I think everyone needs a weekend where they have no place to be at any certain time, just free to do whatever comes up or free to lay around in your comfies and watch movies and your dvr. Since I have been sick all week, I thought it would be best to just lay low and rest and get to feeling better.

It must have worked, because I feel 99.9% like myself. 

Being lazy allowed me to finish the Hunger Games series...and let me tell you, it was a little hard getting into the third book, Mocking jay, I was a little...actually a lot confused...but needless to say I am very happy with the ending. I won't give it away for all those who haven't read it yet, and if you haven't started the Hunger Games...OMG you totally should. I never got into Harry Potter or even the Twilight books, but this series is amazing. I can not wait for the movie. So excited!

It's true. Reading the Hunger games really makes you think, that if for some reason you were sent in to a game where you had to fight until the death or if you were just dropped on an island or something and had to survive, I am not sure I could. I like to think I can...but I don't know really.

This tells me, that A. I need to get in good shape...you know in case I need to outrun some mutts B. Brush up on my archery skills C. Get my little brother to show me how to skin animals and such and D. make sure to have a cute boy as an ally.

So, now that I am done with that series...what are some great books to read? 

Saturday night, I opted for a night in with my sweats, ice cream and watched, "He's just not that into you" It was on TV and I felt I need a refresher on how not to be a crazy single girl.

Sunday, went to church...where we heard a great sermon on Love and relationships...which I will be blogging about maybe tomorrow...in the spirit of Valentines day...it was definitely something I needed to hear..funny how God does that.

So sad to hear about Whitney Houston...that is a voice that is one of a kind....I feel heartbroken for her daughter and mother. I was very touched by the opening of the Grammy's when LL Cool J said a prayer, loved how he chose to do that.

Adam Levine is seriously hott.

Enough said.

Blake Shelton...always love him and Miranda...it makes me sad about Glen Campbell...Alzheimer's is just so heartbreaking...glad to see him up there singing.

All in all, may weekend may have been quite boring...but I think it's just what the doctored order. Now, I will be well rested to see my future husband this weekend...Jake Owen.

Have a good day loves

Getting out there

Hey y'all...welcome to my blog.

Neely is doing this awesome link up for everyone to find new blogs, and to get your own blog out there. I have been blogging for just over a year now and I absolutely love it. I never imagined that through blogging, that A. people actually want to know what is going on in my life and comment about it and B. That I would meet some amazingly wonderful friends, that I may never have met otherwise....and I am very glad I did

.

So, I am linking up in hopes to meet even more amazing people. I love reading about every ones life stories...and sharing my own....because it seems that no matter what I am going through or what I have experienced...there seems to be someone out there who is going through or experienced the same thing.

It's nice to know your not alone.
A little more about me....




I am a late 20 something single girl trying to find her prince, but in the mean time...I have no problem living it up, doing what single gals do. Spending time with some of my favorite people, my bff's...going on trips, wine nights, going back to our Alma Mater(Oklahoma State University) for football games and nights where we try to be college kids again, I enjoy decorating, shopping, I am little bit Real Housewives obsessed, a make-up junkie, a recently discovered Pinterest addict, Pioneer Woman wannabe(complete with my own Marlboro man, please), lover of all things girly, I love to fish(with my pink fishing pole, of course) and a future half-marathon runner(fingers crossed).






Ever hear of the Miranda Lambert song, "Airstream Trailer"? Well this is where the title of my blog comes from. Sometimes, I think we all have a little gypsy soul in us, and sometimes I think I would be perfectly content with being on a mountain, drinking from a stream instead of a fountain...but then I remember that through and through I was born a red dirt girl.

And in case you are wondering...Oklahoma, well..we have red dirt.

Friday confessions

I think Friday's are a good day for confessions, no?

So, I am linking up with Leslie over at A blonde Ambition..gotta love another fellow blonde hair poofer extraordinaire.


1. Since being sick this week and not really having an appetite and not being able to chew on the right side of my mouth...which is a lot harder than one would think...btw, I have been having oreos and milk for breakfast every morning...that is until I ran out. If it helps they were the reduced fat ones.

I think being sick means you can go off your diet a little bit, right?

2. I am so very excited that the Real Housewives of OC is back. I mean, they are the original housewives...and my favorite. I think this is going to be an interesting season, fo sho!

3. I just said fo sho.

4. My plans this weekend consist of doing nothing but trying to get better. It's not really a confession, more just like something I need to do...but I am very excited about a weekend of nothingness.

5. I am obsessed with the Hunger Games series. I mean, obsessed. I am on the third book, Monckingjay, and I admit I am so freaking confused. I am on like the third chapter, but I am so lost. Please tell me it will all start making sense soon.

6. I confess that I have no more confessions, I just can not end on an odd number.

As Usher says, "These are my confessions!"

Have a great weekend dolls!

Oh, how Pinteresting

With my serious addiction to Pinterest I have no idea why I've never done a link up before...so today, I am linking up with Michelle over at the Vintage Apple for...


So, I am really getting into this whole bright color blazer look...and I MUST have these outfits.

I'm thinking Orange blazers are perfect for some OSU Cowboy football this fall.

I'm loving colored skinny jeans...now I just have to get skinny...

love a pink jean

and bright colors

 love the colors

love this skirt and tank combo

coral

and a few just to make you laugh or think...

This reminds me so much of my dog bella...because if she could talk, I'm sure this is what she would say.

And now I finally now...makes total sense.

This should go in dictionary under optimism. :)

Amen.

The weekend

Just a few things this Tuesday morning...

Let's see yesterday my Monday was spent going to a special dentist...whatever that means...and getting a root canal on top of a crown..all while being sick.

Which brings me to today, I just got back from the doctor and I have RSV and bronchitis.

Awesome.

This is the time that I wish I was a kid again and can just stay home from school and have my mommy take care of me....oh, the joys of adulthood.

So, the Superbowl. I am not one for pro-football but I am very happy the Giants won, because I love me some Manning brothers. I was disappointed in the commercials though, I only liked a few. The M&M commercial was my favorite along with the two Dorito commercials the one where the dog buried the cat and the other one where the grandma sling shot the baby to get the Doritos.

Oh and if Clint Eastwood would like to run for President he has my vote...hands down. Loved that commercial. Love me some Clint Eastwood.

This weekend was all sorts of fun.

Friday night we went to see one of my all time favorite bands, Randy Rogers....


We had a great time, despite my phone dropping in the toilet...it's ok by the way after some prayers and some drying out.

We saw a guy with a satchel...beer satchel that is...


and then on Saturday...one of my very best friends got engaged!!

Congrats Sara and Travis!






All in all I would say it was a wonderful weekend...If I had to be sick, I'm glad I wasn't sick over the weekend.

Have a good day loves.
