Ahoy! Ya horn swollgin' swabbie!

(Hooray for talk like a pirate day!)

Good morning! Wow, what a busy week/ weekend.
Quick recap of last week...
I re-started a blog! (because I want to quit facebook) I will try to write more than once a week. ;)
I started boot camp with my sister! Clarence is great! If you are in the BR area check him out!
Started looking for a new job in the cosmetology industry. By Friday I had an interview at a hair salon. - It looked like a great place to work. However, I don't think it was the place for me.

My weekend started off bringht and early... at 6:30 in the morning (HIM was not a happy camper) with cleaning a house, as usual. The good and badabout that... The bad: My mom wasn't there to help me out this weekend becauseher mom and sister were in town from FL for a Scentsy Party. The good: I madeall the money and didn't have to share. :) and I got to see my grandmaw. <3
After cleaning the house I had to rush home and cook some lunch (beans andfranks!) and shower because HIM's parents were coming in town for the Scentsyparty. I barely had time to get out of the shower and throw a dress on beforethey were there. I dried my hair for all of 5 minutes (and when you have 2.5 feetof hair that isn't very long) and HIM's mom and I were off to my mom's for theparty. - I should probably interject here how much I dislike these parties. Ihate begging my friends to come to my house so they can be bombarded by a pushy sales person who is not only tryingto sell stuff, but also trying to make you become a sales person under them.With that being said... I am also a sucker to help out a friend/ family member.So I end up having/ going to lots of these parties. – The Scentsy party wentmuch better than expected. My aunt probably sold around $500. I of course hadto buy a ton of stuff including:
For the office: Chateau Mid-Size Scentsy Warmer

For my home: Graphite Mid-Size Scentsy Warmer
For Halloween!!: Jack O' Lantern Full-Size Scentsy Warmer
And because I am so indecisive... a ton of different scents. I hope I like them all.
This is my aunt Grace's Scentsy Site.

After all that smell good stuff, HIM's parents took us out to eat at Joe's Crab Shack. Then HIM and I returned home to crash and get ready for moving furniture on Bogalusa on Sunday.


My great aunt and uncle both died within the past year and my great (?)cousin recently sold their family home. So we volunteered to go down toBogalusa and pick up some of the family heirlooms and other knickknacks/ keepsakes we wanted before it was all sold in the estate sale. The one thing Ifound and could not live without… A broiling pan! I know you are thinking that’ssilly, broiling pans are a dime a dozen. NOT this pan, trust me. It is a pain Ihave been scouring the local Good Wills and Salvation Army’s for, for a longtime! And not too long ago I had actually found the top part but not the bottomso I had bought it… but now I have the complete pan! Oh the joys that will comefrom my kitchen now. - No worries I will take a picture of the pan and post it as soon as I think about it.

After all was said and done HIM and I relaxed on the couch and made a 90's play list on Spotify. - Which totally made my weekend awesome. I love when we can sit together and enjoy each others company.

Hope everyone had a great weekend!
