Long Weekend, Tired Blonde

Holy cannoli, am I one tired girl?!
This weekend is the last busy weekend at work so I worked my bum off! Exhausted as can be! My sweetheart is headed home tomorrow after a week of working hard! Cannot wait to snuggle up! Gag me, right? Ha! No shame in our game! 
Our Holiday Photos! (my brunette days, I don't miss it!)
So, Friday night consisted of a glass of pinot and a lot of bleach! I decided to tone with more of the ice blonde than anticipated but I believe it came out well! That will be a separate posts with all of those details tomorrow!

One thing I have reflected on this weekend was dealing with various personalities and what people expect of you. Whether it is an acquaintance, friend or family, personalities can cause any situation to be laid back or wound like a top! A lovely lady that I work with (also a fellow blogger) and I have become very close; she dealt with my crazy family and I at Disney on Saturday night! I am very blessed to have her! She met my brother and his two children at Epcot then she and I ventured to Magic Kingdom to enjoy their animation on the castle and a couple rides! Benefits of living in Orlando is definitely a "relaxing" night watching fireworks at Disney! 


I have come to enjoy Miss Maddie's company and realize that adult relationships are so different from when we were in our teens or early twenties. I look forward to creating relationships with people that I can grow with.
More photos of my silver/blonde hair to follow! For now, enjoy a little Disney! 
That darn castle never gets old!

Macaroons and Memories

We didn't know we were making memories, we just knew we were having fun In the last two weeks, I've gone back to my hometown for appointments and family events. It is always interesting going back. When I'm at home in O-town, I always feel like I'm missing "back home" and want to return. Then I return and am reminded why we left; there is nothing wrong with where I am from, I just love where I am going! Centennial Park in Downtown Fort Myers My sister arranged with her photographer friend to have some family photos taken. My mom has been dying for them so we appeased her. After all, you never know when you'll have the chance again! We color-coordinated our crazy bunch and they will hopefully be great! The photog sent over some sneak peeks after and they look great so we are looking forward to seeing the rest! My sister and I My mama and her girls Since we live in the theme park capital of the world, we have annual passes to most of the par...

We Don't Talk About That...

Mental health has never been a "hot topic" or a common dinner conversation, it is usually dusted under the rug and left to fester til another day. Honestly, I'm writing this for my own mental health, rather my sanity. Since this virus took over our lives, being forced to live completely out of the norm has made mental health become a little bit more of a subject but not by much. Being bored and forced to be in the same house almost 24/7 can cause you to focus on things you wouldn't normally think about. This is also true for myself. Up until now, I haven't really discussed with anyone but close friends and family what I have struggled with for a long time. To me, you talk about it and everyone will think you're looney. Well, I'm over it and tired of hiding it so here goes! When I lived in Orlando, I had extremely high anxiety for the first time. I was basically alone full time miles away from my hometown. I tried so desperately to avoid facing what I...

I'm Made of Glitter, Water, and Anxiety

So over the last few years I have struggled with admitting and treating my own personal demon of anxiety. I have many friends who have a similar struggle and agree that prior to becoming it's prey, we thought anxiety was a total joke. I mean, when I would witness an anxiety attack I would just think, 'come on, pull it together sister!'. But now that I tend to deal with it on the daily, it is a very real monster. To have your own brain betray you as such is a difficult thing to grasp. Going from a perfectly rational person to trying to prevent anything and everything that could possibly happen, you look at yourself and think 'jeez! What a nutcase!'. Treating my anxiety wasn't an easy task, especially since I began treating mine at the end of a relationship and while being completely alone. It was a daily struggle and I really didn't feel like anyone would understand without being judgemental. I also used substances as my release, we all know I love my wine....
