I saw a few of my blogger friends participate in A Day in the Life hosted by Kelly. You can check her blog out here

So I thought I would share what a typical day for me looks like.

4:45-5:15 Alarm goes off and I hit snooze a variety of times before finally getting up

5:15 change into work out clothes and hit the gym

5:45-6:45 Depending on the day I either do a spin class or do some cardio and weight lifting

7:00-8:00 Home to get ready for work

8:00-8:50 Drive out to a client's school. Yes it is an hour away

11:00-11:50 Drive back home

12:00-12:45 Grab a quick lunch at home, let the dogs out and head back to work

1:00-2:30 A 1:1 home session with a kiddo

2:30-3:00 Drive to another client's house

3:00-5:00 A 1:1 home session with another kiddo

5:30-6:30 And another in home visit with a kiddo

7:00 Finally arrive home!!

7:10 Time to start dinner and change into comfy clothes

7:30-10 Time to eat dinner, clean a little, do some homework and finally relax with the hubs . Usually I try to blog at this time and catch up on some of my blog reading. I have been known to skip cleaning and homework and just blog!!!

As you can see I spend alot of time in my car!! I love my job however and don't mind the traveling. It's so nice to get outta Fayetteville sometimes!

Happy Friday everyone

Keep me away from Forever 21

Before I got married I was a total shopaholic! I was obsessed with shoes, dresses, purses, tops, jeans, you name it. And since I always worked a billion jobs and didn't have many bills to worry about I was able to support my shopping habit.

However once I was married reality set in. My student loans started coming, we had a wedding to pay off, rent, internet, cable, and other bills. So my shoppings days have diminished. I will admit, I may shop more often than I should but compared to how much I used to shop I have made major improvements.

Forever 21 is my down fall. I just love this store. I can't go in it without spending a fortune. The good thing about shopping there though is the cheap prices. I get alot of clothes for the money I spend. M bought me a gift card there for my bday and the next day I had to go there. However, they are in that in between stage where they have mostly sale items, winter clothes and only a few spring clothes so I didn't buy anything. I did however look on their website to see what they had and fell in love with this dress



I just love it. It's a mini version of my wedding dress. I want to buy it so bad!!! I know I probably wouldnt have any place to wear it. I work with kids so it's not like I ever would have to wear a dress to work, M's unit isn't having a military ball since everyone is deployed and I do have a wedding to go to this summer but you can't wear a white dress to some one else's wedding. I do want it because I want M and I to take couples pics when he gets back and I'm also planning on doing a boudoir photo shoot and thought I could incorporate the dress into both of those some how. Hmmm

Now the question is, too buy or not too buy? Help!!!

K & M-Our Story

1. What are your middle names? Mine is Anne and M doesn't have one

2. How long have you been together? A little over two years

3. How long did you know each other before you started dating? Hmm well we met online and talked for about a month and a half before officially meeting. You could say we started dating right away

4. Who asked who out? Well M and I met on myspace when he was deployed. I was friend's with his sister who had asked me to create an account for her so that she could keep in contact with her bro who was deployed. Since we were her only friends we added each other as a joke. Then her and I planned a trip to vegas and she asked if her brother could join us since he would be home by then. How could I say no. So then we started talking more since we knew we would be going on a trip together. So we talked for about a month and a half online before he came on for thanksgiving where we hung out all weekend and then he went back to nc. After that weekend it was a given we would see alot of each other before our vegas trip that December.So I guess you could say it was mutual

5. How old are each of you? I'm 26 and M is 30

6. Did you go to the same school? No but our schools were nearby. M even dated someone from my high school


7. Are you from the same home town? Yes we are. We even went to the same college although three years apart. When I was a freshman he had just joined the army

8. Who is the smartest? M says I am but he knows alot of random facts and can tell you anything history related

9. Who majored in what? I majored in criminal justice and am now back in school obtaining my certification in Applied Behavioral Analysis. M was majoring in history and political science before dropping out of college right after 9/11 and joining the military. He has yet to finish his degree

10. Who is the most sensitive? Def Me. Anything and everything makes me cry. Especially leading up to a deployment. I am uber sensitive and am constantly asking M what's wrong, are you mad at me, are you going to miss me, do you love me. Crazy, I know

11. Where is the furthest you two have traveled together as a couple? We have been all over. We went to Las Vegas on our first trip, traveled to Key West Florida, got married in Key West and went on our honeymoon to the Dominican Republic

12. Who has the worst temper? Probably me. I tend to blow up and get angry but get over it really fast. M holds a grudge and can ignore someone for days. It drives me insane

13. How many children do you want? I want three, M says two. We will see who wins that one

14. Who does the cooking? Umm that would be me.Gotta love crock pots

15. Who is more social? Again that would be me. M can be anti-social at times and I'll have to drag him out of the house and make him go do something.

16. Who is the neat freak? It used to be M but lately it has been me. I'm always cleaning and he's leaving the mess

17. Who is the most stubborn? M!! As I mentioned before he carries a grudge for days. Even if he knows he is in the wrong he won't budge on his opinion or the things he had said.

18. Who wakes up earlier? Me. You would think that with him being in the army that he would. Nope,I get up to go to the gym every morning at 4:45

19. Where was your first date? Ha at this little hole in the wall bar called the Scuttle Butt. I was out for my bro's 21st bday and M and his sister came to join us.

20. Who has the bigger family? Well we each have on sibling but M has more aunts and uncle's than I do. Also most of his cousins have kid's so that makes his family a little bigger than mine

21. Do you get flowers often? No, never. Though when he was deployed he sent flowers a lot.

22. How do you spend the holidays? This year was the first year we were able to celebrate them together. We also went home to WI to celebrate with our families though thanksgiving was just the two of us and easter I will be by myself

23. Who is more jealous? It's a tie. It depends on the situation
