whoa now.

Holy slacking!!

Talk about ridiculousness.
I haven't posted since September and that is just completely unacceptable.
Time has completely gotten away from me.

It's a new year so I figured it was time to start getting back on track.
((Yes, I realize it's almost a month into the new year... but better late than never right?))

So today I'm here to share with you some of the things that have been stealing my time.
((Don't be hatin on them..))

First and main distraction:
I met this aaahhh-mazing hunk of a guy:
This was taken on our first date.
November 19, 2011
Yup... he set the standards high from the very beginning.
Notre Dame football.
Our Irish kicked some major &#* that game against Boston College.
I'm expecting big things for Valentine's Day y'all.
((JK... I'm perfectly content with some snuggle time...))
The main thing you need to know about him?
He's absolutely wonderful and I'm falling hard and fast for this guy...
He motivates me.
He takes care of me.
He pushes me to be the best version of me.
He's just simply... the best.

Second distraction:
This is now the other man in my life.
He's a big baby and demands much of my attention when I'm at home.
Especially for giving kisses.
Good thing he's flippin adorable.
So ladies and gents, meet Duke ((aka Dookers)).
He will be glad to give you lots and lots of kisses.

Third distraction:
My chillins.
Abby Rae and I had a tiny bit of fun playin with PhotoBooth one day after school.
There were just a few giggles along the way........
Now obviously Abby isn't the only one taking up my time.
I have 20 other wonderfully, amazing students that I love spending time with on a daily basis.
Not to mention the other 31 children in our school who love to come in my room any chance they get.
Cause apparently I'm the coolest teacher around.
((not to brag or anything.....))

Fourth distraction:
This has probably been one of the biggest distractions too.
Working out.
That's right folks.
I have finally faced my fears of working out in front of people.
The ahhhh-mazing hunk of a man I mentioned up yonder?
Yea... he's so ahhhh-mazing that he added me to his gym membership.
And since I'm not one who likes to waste money,
I have made dang sure that I'm taking advantage of that gift.
I have made an effort to go to the gym everyday.
Unless I'm sick (such as I am this week), or literally don't have time, I go to the gym.
Over Christmas break,
I went twice a day.
BOOM.
I am officially down 4 pant sizes!!
Maybe one of these days I'll get enough courage to post before and after pictures.
((However, I have lots of time before I've lost enough for that anyway.))
I just owe it all to the ahhhh-mazing man in my life.
He's the source of all my motivation and he pushes me to do my best.
Best thing?
He goes to the gym with me AND eats the same healthy dinners with me.
((most days... haha))
Have I mentioned how ahhhh-mazing he is?!?!

Fifth distraction:
The lovely thing that is distracting probably 90% of America.
My source of all motivation, creativity, and inspiration.
Need motivation to workout? Check Pinterest.
I found tons of inspiring pictures as well as lots of workout ideas to keep things changing!!
Need food ideas?
Now obviously this isn't the healthiest option :( but it looks and sounds flipping delicious!!
The boyfriend is planning on making some new purchases this spring to redo the living room so this is one of the ideas I have of sprucing up the space.
We've been talking about ways to fix up the house.
Obviously I've been hoarding ideas on here for awhile now.
His first question:
"How much will this cost me?"
Well lucky for you baby, I'm all about DIY and saving money!!
Not only do I have sources to get awesome curtains made,
I'm all about clearance and simplicity.
((Especially when there's a high probability of boys getting rowdy during a football game and breaking things...))
Found this one the other day.
I absolutely love it.
It's sorta becoming my mantra for the year.
I will be FIERCE this year!!

So between these 5 distractions + time with family and friends...
I've been pretty busy.
BUT.
I intend to step it up a little bit.
((It helps that I can kidnap the boyfriends computer occasionally since mine decided it needed to end its life... highly inconvenient))
It may be slow at first... but give me time..
I'm tryin!!
Promise!!

So until next time:
Peace out yos.
