T…G…I…F….

Today is Friday and I have to work tonight, which I’m looking forward to.  Life has taken over and I’ve been busy living it.  With Spring now upon us, I’ve been enjoying lots of sunlight on my skin.  Though with Spring comes storms and lots of rain, the rain is very welcome but I hope the storms are mild.  Last weekend I was able to spend some quality time with a dear friend and I enjoyed it.  Tomorrow we have a mini girl’s day planned, going to the Women’s Expo and then we will be grabbing lunch.  Speaking of rain and storms, it just started raining and I can hear thunder.  Good thing that I got about thirty minutes in the sun earlier and now I feel energized for work tonight. My girly girl begins spring break today after school and we are planning on going camping some next week & weekend.  Just got to nail down the location and get everything together.  Though with work, there will be some camping with work mixed in with it.  Hope all is well in the world and everyone has a wonderful weekend.

M...I...A...

Wow…I’ve been missing in action…actually I’ve been super busy and haven’t had much time for myself.  After starting a new job, trying to get things in order with a new schedule; trying to find a balance has been hard.  My home life and work life are both fine and maybe sometime soon I’ll be back on track posting…please bear with me.  By the way, this month marked six months of being married to a man that I truly love…woohoo…go us!

My Brooms ARE Standing...

I have seen something about a broom standing for a couple of days now and finally saw a youtube video this morning.  After seeing a girl balance her broom and it standing, it peaked my interest and off I went to try it.

Not really sure why…but two of my brooms are standing…when normally I place them up against a wall and all they want to do is fall to the floor…thanks FaceBook for giving me something to wonder about…lol…Happy Hump Day.

First Table Tonight...

It’s been a week of trying to get adjusted, and I’m still trying to get a routine going.  Working at night has changed my sleeping habits & energy level.  I’m thankful to be working again and glad that I’m doing something I’ve not done in a long time, but I’ve got to get a routine down and fast.  Last night was my last night of training & tonight I get my own table which means I start getting tips. Needless to say I’m super excited and a little nervous also; I know I’ll do just fine.

Today...I Begin A New Adventure

It’s been a week with highs and lows; let’s just say hurt back and a new job.  I’m not sure what happened but I have had some severe back pains and been on the verge of sobbing.  It seems as though most of the pain is ending and now I’m just left with soreness & a few pains here than there.  With that said, my husband has been taking great care of me and has understood the pain I’ve been in.  I am glad and thankful that I’m on the recovering end.  Even with back pains, I put on my happy face and went for an interview at which I was hired.  I’m super excited about the new challenges that are ahead of me and I’m looking forward to my new job.  For the past ten years I’ve worked in an office and have sat behind a desk.  My new job is being a server at a busy restaurant, which I am extremely excited about.  The last time I worked tables was when I was in my early twenties, which means some things will come back quick and then I’ve also got a lot to learn.  One of the main things I’m looking forward to is that I’ll be up and moving instead of sitting behind a desk.  I know there will be long days and some aching feet, but I truly think this job will make me happy.  Since I’m a people person and like being in the center of attention, I feel as though I should excel at this job.  Plus I’ll still be able to have a life and do other things that I want to do.  I’m going for orientation today & can’t wait to start on my new adventure.

Ps…by the way…I love the knock off Clorox Cleaner that I mixed up…it works great!

Knock off Clorox Cleanup

Thanks to Pinterest, I found something that I just mixed up and going to try out.  It’s a knock off of Clorox Cleanup.  After doing some researching and knowing that the recipe needed to be tweaked, this is what I came up with.  Some recipes called for dish detergent to be mixed with bleach and most dish detergents have ammonia in them, therefore it can be lethal. There were some that called for laundry detergent, fabric softener, and hand soap.  I decided to go with laundry detergent since I knew it can be mixed with beach and since I love life, the mixture would not kill me. 

Knock off Clorox Cleanup

1 Empty Plastic Spray Bottle (I used my empty Clorox Cleanup Bottle)

1/4 Cup Bleach (I used Target Brand Bleach)

1 Teaspoon Laundry Detergent (I used Tide)

Fill the bottle the rest of the way with Water.

Shake Bottle each time before use...spray & clean away.

Love...Your Wife

Just a little note for my husband…nothing says I love you like red lipstick on the bathroom mirror…lol

Thanks to Instagram for capturing the moment.
