Guest Blogging- Bloggest Loser

Today, I am guest posting over at Bloggest Loser. Not Fat...Just "Plus-Sized"...Right? Writing this post really was an eye opener to me to see that I really had gained weight. I joined Bloggest Loser, and found a group of women, that are having thesame problems losing weight. They really are a great group of ladies, so hop on over there and show them so love.


Thanks to all that are supportive of me, & my quest to lose weight. :)

Wordless Wednesday ♥ Best Friends.

OMG! OMG! OMG!

JUSTIN GOT A JOBBBBBBB!!!!!!!!!




You cannot even begin to understand how freaking excited I am about this! Beyond overjoyed. My husband has been out of work for quite awhile..like uh..almost a year. It has been so stressful, and really it is the only thing that he and I fight about. I hated going to work & leaving him still laying there. I have really wanted to just kick him and wake him up when I left. I didn't ever, but boy have I wanted to lately. Oh man; I am excited!




Yessssssss!
JUMPING FOR JOY!!!



I really should blog today.

Buttt... I don't really have much to say. I have a busy week this week. Something going on every single night this week. Which is very strange for me. I worked yesterday til 4:15, then met J for an early dinner, went to Mil & Eric's and J shot his bow, then we went and I bought some birthday cards for my girls, and rented a couple movies & then we were home & in bed watching movies by 9:30pm. lol. :)

I set my alarm for 5:15pm..so this morning at 6:40 when Ellie was whining to be let outside, I realized I had over slept and had better hustle to be to work on time, I was early..but I didn't look as hot as usual. haha. :) I have a birthday party for a friend tonight, so when I get off work, I am going to run home, get ready, go to my sister's and get her, and then go celebrate one of my besties birthday's. I cannot wait. She and I have been friends since kindergarten.

Tomorrow; I have an eye appt after work, which I am so excited about. I havn't had glasses in so long, I am might do contacts also, because I love contacts, and I am blind as a bat. :)

Thursday: I have a Lia Sophia jewerly party to go to, & I cannot wait. Wahoooo. I love the jewerly. :)

Friday: J has class and something planned for us..but he is not saying what. Lol.


Today. I am tirrrred. I really would like to go sleep.
I do not want to go out really late tonight, but I have
to make an apperance at my friends birthday, or she will
kiiiiillll me dead. :)

Monday, Monday, oh how I loathe Mondays.

This weekend was errrghhhhmaaaazzzing! Really, J and I had the best weekend, and it was pretty low key, which is always good. It really started Thursday when we went out for drinks with a really fun group of people. I love my besties & our friends. Then Friday, V and a guy named Chris, J and I all went out in Eugene. It was quite fun, and we were home pretty early, which was uber nice. Me..really excited over cake..
:)


My best best best friend.
Cavewife.


Not feeling very good.
hehe. That's what he
get's for drinking the rest
of my drink. I told him
it was good. ;)
Two of my best girls

Thee birthday girl. :)


Saturday, J and I slept late & hung around the house. It was his sister's birthday [the one that had passed away in 1995] and so we went up to my SIL, to BBQ & shoot the bows. It was such a nice day, not raining at all, and warm. I even got to wear flip flops which was a wayyy happy moment for me. ;) We had some drinks, really good steaks. Eho, came up and hung out with us for awhile & it was so nice to get to see her. She and I are going to start walking..if I ever find the time. :) We ended up staying the night at Eric & Milly's and woke up Sunday pretty early.

J and Eric had a boys days & Milly and I took Christina to a movie and to lunch. It was really fun & we watched the best movie. The Bounty Hunter. It has Gerad Bulter & Jennifer Aniston in it, wayyy good. I loved it, it is definatly a movie I will buy. :)

We ate dinner with them on Sunday and I ended up going home by myself, cause J is helping Eric get everything ready for Easter weekend. They do a huge party at their house so they are trying to get ready for it.

Today has been a pretty good day at work, not to slow & pretty busy in the morning, which totally makes the day go by way faster. I have about 45 minutes left of work & then J and I are going to go to dinner & a movie. ;)

Yay!

FILL IN THE BLANNNNNKS.

Lauren does fill in the blank friday. every friday, and
it's really fun, do it, and don't forget to link up. :)

Fridaaaaayyyy OH-EM-GEEEEEEEEEE! I am so excited that today is friday. I loooove the weekends. It's payday. I have the whole weekend off. My hair is going a little crazy, but cute &&& I am trying to convince J to go to the beach with me..and take all three dogs. :)


1. Today I am wearing, jeans, a pink & white striped shirt, a gray cardigan and a pair of uggs. :)
2. My favorite childhood food was laffy taffy or lasagna [my mom's recipe] and my favorite food now is..My lasagna, much like my mothers,only better and different. :)
3. A day that I am too busy to have any free time to myself is a day that I am too busy.
4. The last movie I saw was some movie J put in the dvd player. lol. I don't know the name of it, some Stephen Stegall movie. :) And the next movie I want to see is Bounty Hunter, with Gerald Butler & Jennifer Aniston. Win-Win. :)

5. My favorite smell is my perfume, JLO still or Justin fresh out of the shower because, it just puts a smile on my face.
6. A weird little quirk I have is I roll my straw wrapper into a tight little line, then swirl into a circle and give it to Justin, all shaped like a spring, anytime we go out to eat. He always says "Thanks." It's cute. He's crazy.
7. When I take personality quizzes they always say I'm uh..I don't think I have taken any personality quizzes lately. lol. :)

grumpy gills.

As Justin would say; "You're being a grumpy gills". I do not know what a gill is..
but I am assuming that it is, not something nice. lol.
I decided to write some letters today..to see if I
couldn't clear this jumbled mess that is in my head..
enjoy.
xo, shelby
Dear Little Red Car,
You are such a trooper, and
I know that it probablly really hurt when
the other car smashed into you, because
it's driver was an idiot and didn't look
before pulling out onto the road way.
I am doing everything in my power to
fix you as soon as possible.
I love you, and please keep running
as smoothly as you have been
until I can afford to buy you a new
brother or sister. It's not that I want
to replace you, I fully intend to keep you
around, I just want to give you a rest.
Thanks for being awesome-
♥ your loyal driver.
Dear People at work;
Sorry for being such an
asshole lately. I am stressed.
I don't have an outlet for it.
I am working on my attitude.
♥ The grumpy girl in the Lab.
Dear Ellie ♥
I get that I work all the time.
I understand that you miss me.
I know that I need to spend more
time with you when I get home,
and that is the only reason that you
are constantly under my feet from
the moment I walk in the door to
the moment we head to bed. I am
going to work on not telling you to
get out of my way, and telling you
to get out of the kitchen. I have this
weekend off & I fully plan on taking you
and your brothers to the beach & not
doing anything but spending time at
home and with you and your two
brothers.
♥ your mom & snuggle partner.
Dear Coffee;
Thank you for the lift.
You tasted really good.
Even after you burnt my
t o n g u e.
♥ your follower.
Dear Justi-wusti,
I love you. I love you more
than I let on..I just am starting
to have a mild meltdown with
you not working. It has been
sooo long. And I hate coming
home and feeling jealous that
you just got to hang out all
day with the dogs, vegging out.
Cooking dinner & getting to watch
movies and tv. I will work on
being a nicer person. I promise.
♥ your wife, that really
loves your cooking.
Dear Sisters;
Oh how I miss getting to
spend time with you girls.
I get that you don't care for
my husband, but couldn't you
honestly put your thoughts and
feelings to the side, long enough
for us to go to dinner, or a movie
or anywhere, and not have to talk
about your hatred for him?
It makes me not want to be around
you guys. And I know that it is
not all the time, but it is enough
of the time, that it pisses me off.
Please just treat me as
your sister and not a stranger.
♥ mom & emeli's favorite. :)
Dear Self;
Mellow the F out!
Life is stressful.
It's always been stressful.
It will always be stressful.
Get over it. Let go. Relax.
Smile, because you really
do have a pretty face, and
people talk to you when you
smile at them. So show off
those pearly whites, [that you
spend a ridiculous amount of
money on toothpaste, to maintain
the whiteness & if your not going
to smile- I am going to quit buying
the expensive stuff.]
You're beautiful.
♥ Yourself.
My lovely followers & people that comment;
I love you. Thank you for all the advice,
and kind words to me. You are awesome
& I love reading your blogs. I try to comment
as much as possible, I just sometimes slack.
You are all beautiful talented women.
♥ me.
