Are You Ready For Some {Randonmess}??

I would like to start off by saying that I always hear people talk about "how busy" they are during the summer months and are always on the go. Well, not until this summer did I get the

full understanding of what "busy" during the summer months meant.

Honestly this has been the first summer out of college that I have been a serious, dare I say it, ADULT! (fyi kids..not what it's all cracked up to be! Seriously...stay living with your parents until your like 40 or until they kick you out)

I am sure a lot of it has to do with our upcoming wedding and the fact that we have kicked it in

overdrive on the whole planning process....We are officially under the 4 month mark!!

And now for the RANDOMNESS:

So...Z and I were strolling through Central Market, we normally are like kids on Christmas morning in there, and I stumbled upon this. All my little eyes saw was CHOCOLATE and WINE. I automatically

reached for it to put in our basket. Like who is the GENIUS who invented this? It must be a woman due to the fact it's our two favorite food groups as one...chocolate and wine.

(disclosure - I could only take about two sips out of it due to how rich it is....bummer)

While buying groceries at Target this past week for the 50th time I came across these! I love Starbucks Fraps and at 100 calories it makes it that much better!

My new current obsession..crafts. Crafts and cooking to be exact. Like hey why not take on more crap in my house to do while planning a wedding...all of this sounded glorious in my head!

(these are cute bags I decorated for some special ladies)

My new outfit and hair - I got my outfit at Delia's, anyone remember this place? I used to get there magazines in mail all the time, when I was in HIGH SCHOOL. Yep I shop at teenager hot spots! However this teenager hot spot gave me a $10 gift card for just trying on jeans! I take that as a good deal!

Lastly my new hairstyle....what do you think?

Product Review {Doggy} Treats

Above is the light of my life as well as the biggest pain in my behind. He is a little on the hefty size,

however he is stocky and definitely never misses a meal. Sometimes he gets dinner twice because Z and I do not communicate. 

Really the only time he gets a treat is when he goes into his kennel. I try to praise him for getting in his kennel so its a positive experience for him. With this Texas heat I bought him this week at Target

some ice cream frosty treats just for dogs!

Needless to say he absolutely loves them and will do about anything you want him to

do....well almost!

Then one of his grandma's (Z's mom) got him this very loud squeaky donut from Bed Bath and Beyond. Ace is not really a big toy dog,  he normally only likes toys that other dogs

are playing with. However he loves loves this donut!

If you know of anything that will keep him from getting on my couch please share! I am willing to try anything, even possibly getting rid of the couch all together!

{Goals}

A couple of weeks ago I tweeted my goals thinking that if they were out there for

everyone to see it would be that much more motivation to complete them.

One of my fellow bloggers/dz sisters/tweeters/college friend started tweeting her goals

and we were each other's accountability partners over twitter. (yes I function

on twitter like I am having real life conversations with the person)

Seeing how well that helped me, Z and I decided to start writing our goals down on Sunday

and posting them to the refrigerator. (disclaimer: please don't judge for the off white 90's fridge.

Our new and improved stainless steel one should be here in a week!)

So far as of today I have been able to cross two things off my list and after Friday will have completed

everything except walk my dog every AM/PM of the week. (another disclaimer: the previous sentence

shows how "not ready" I am for children anytime soon)

Some of Z's goals are pretty sweet. Cook dinner one night this week and take the trash out when needed. One of my BIG pet peeves....not taking out the trash when it is overflowing and/or not

putting a new trash bag in the trash can!

My goals are more about things that I struggle with on a weekly basis. Examples...we pay for

me to workout and tan...I was probably using those oh I say around 2 times a week. Z

expressed his frustrations on why pay for something monthly if I don't use it. So needless

to say I have working out and tanning on my goal list.

So far it has really helped both of us keep each other accountable as well as ourselves. Anyone

else have any goals they are trying to meet daily, weekly, or monthly??

Thanks to Shayna and Amber for keeping me accountable on my goals!!!
