Almost there!


Well it's almost here! I am going to celebrate New Years at home with my beau Dave and a bottle of champagne, maybe two! I'm looking forward to the New Year, I feel so blessed to have the things that I do. I just have a feeling better things are coming! I wish you all the best and may all of your dreams come true!

New Years Resolutions


Maybe it is considered silly or a waste of time to make New Years resolutions? But on the other hand it helps to better oneself to acheive goals and step back and look at your life and see how you can improve it as well. So here they are:
1. Get healthy by eating better and working out regularly.(no goal weight nor size just smaller!)
2. Spend more time with friends and family.(especially with my mom)
3. Save more money.(for a vacation!)
4. Dress up more. (might as well enjoy my youth!)
5. Be a better person. (to others and to myself)
I think these resolutions are realistic and very possible!

Friday night Tantulum!

I can't get enough martinis! I'm not an lush or anything but they are so yummy!My favorite is of course the cosmo but I'm willing to try new flavors.


So on friday night Iris, Toni, Arnold, Scott and myself went to Tantulum restaurant for some cocktails. And let me tell you they were sooooo good. Iris and I had the Asian Peartini to begin with. Toni had a beer. Then I tried the Pink Elephantini it was bubblegum flavored vodka flavored with a cute little lollipop in it to stir it. Iris had a X-rated pomegrantetini. It was good too and it had a pretty orchid in it. It was a great time!

My pal Iris.


Boy, where to begin with my friend Iris....we met in 3rd grade I was in Ms. Kendall's class and she was in the next class over I forgot her teachers name? Was it Ms. Newman? We've been in a few classes together let's see: 4th grade (Ms. Bates), 6th grade (Ms.Duncan), 7th grade (Ms. Tatum) and (Ms. Atwood). After that I can't really remember plus I wasn't in school much...I was a major ditcher! Badd....anyway she's been my friend through all of life's challenges. We had some good times and some bad too but she's the only "girl" I can trust because she has a good heart and she knows where I'm coming from. I hope that we stay friends till our we're two little old ladies.  So cheers to old friends and new for that matter!

Christmas is a comin...

Well Christmas is just around the corner. Dave and I are going to Vegas to visit his mom for Christmas. It's been a while we've seen her so it's going to be nice. Shes going to make tamales! We're going to the strip of course to see all of the X-mas decorations and maybe gamble a bit. I like the 5 cent slots. I could sit there for a while and play. Hopefully they'll have some X-mas cocktails to drink at the bars. I'm looking forward to it! These pics are from Bellagio.

Mama said they'll be days like this.

I'm getting off to a bad start today. I couldn't wake up early enough to go to the gym. Even though I went to bed super early I could not get up this morning! What gives? Then I get to work late only 5 minutes but still, no breakfast and I'm running around...then all these things are going wrong at work. Last night I had a run-in with this girl who lost her phone and she wanted me to look through all of our bins for it. People don't realize how much crap is lost in buses and we have hundreds of stuff. So anyway I'm gonna try to be optimistic and have good thoughts! HA! I'd rather be here....
