If..

If you really knew me
 you would know..

*I've been obsessed with pink my ENTIRE life, I even once had a bubble gum pink room
* I once had a lazy eye until I was 19 and I had eye surgery
*I'm VERY caring to the point of OCD, if your sick, injured etc I will bug the heck out of you
to make sure you are ok
*I suffer from anxiety and depression, don't worry guys it's totally under control now
*I have no patience, which I contribute to being 3 months early, I couldn't even stay in the womb
*I hoped to be married with children at 25, EPIC fail
*I'm a home body
*In fact I hate busy weekends, weekends are for relaxing
*i lost my vcard at 19 to my first love,  I don't regret it one bit.

Sometimes and Always#15

Linking up with the wonderful Megan @ Mackey Madness




Sometimes I wish my parents did certain things when I was little (ie braces, eye surgery)

Always, I'm thankful to be able to correct these things now. I JUST got invisalign today and let me tell you I am HURTING! Holy cow!!! Said eye surgery, I had at 19 which was thankfully covered by insurance.

Sometimes I wonder why I can't stay on my step mom's fabulous health insurance forever.

Always I'm blessed to work for a company that has health insurance (that I'm eligble for)

Sometimes I just want to buy a bunch of stuff. IE new Marc Jacobs Grayson, new sony camera, new work clothes.

Always I try to be thankful for what I have currently and try to become better at saving and planning for the future.


To anyone whose wondering my grandfather is doing much better, day by day he's getting back to his old personality, cracking jokes and becoming more active.

Ah,  I really wanted to post a update but I'm in quite a bit of pain, I think at 7pm I'm going to bed.

Sometimes and Always V 01.24




Sometimes.. I think I need to work out more, who am I kidding.  I think I need to work out PERIOD because I'm a lil chunky.
Always.. I go back to not working out (except this last week, I've be working out in the am via strength training ala pinterest)



Sometimes, I miss my mom more then words can imagine.

Always, I'm greatful to have had an amazing women as her raise me.  Pictures are on my desk at work of me and mom, me and my wonderful friend becca and the whole family at my dads wedding.  Did I mention they're in sparkle frames?


Sometimes, I think too much and analyze too much.

Always, I can find a quote that says exactly how I feel.




Sometimes, I take pictures of the sunrise from my wonderful view at work at 715 AM.
Always, my favorite part of the day is driving home and over the bridge looking at the sunset and the water. It's calming and my guilt pleasure.


Sometimes, to destress I search pinterest.
Always, I look for funny things.  You see at work we send out funny pics with a lot of the emails we send to teammates (20+ people) to make things a little bit less structured.  I'm always looking for something new and different to use.




Sometimes, I forget to take a breath.

Always, I look down at my ring (a remembrance of my mom, it's an aquamarine(her birthstone) eternity band that says mom and the date she passed away)
