Computer Problems and Martini's

It's funny I had a co-worker (my muse, Katie!!) film me making my awesome new candy inspired Martini for the contest that I am going to in ten more days!! (Weezer tickle break! So, if I go into some random topic you know why!) But my computer was serviced and now my flip program doesn't work. I have to call them again!! It really annoys me when computers don't do what you want them to!! I am so... so... so EXCITED for this martini contest! Last year I won the big prize! I got the title "Master Mixologist"!!! So, this year I probably wont win, but I know what to expect, so I can just have a blast!! And my boss is buying all of us a room and letting most of the staff that is old enough attend and support me!! This year I get friends and family to have my back! My drinks name is "Pink Secret" and it has alot to keep a secret about! OOH! LA LA! And it is pink and blue and I am doing a sexy display! I know a guy wouldn't order a pink drink willingly, but maybe the the "sexy" will win them over!! The pictures are of martini's, but not mine because I can't get my flip to work. Hopefully, in the next couple days I will figure it out so you can see the sexy-ness!! LOL!

Wow!

I was bartending last week and a guest came in and he likes to drink alot when he does come in. He doesn't come in very often, but when he does he comes in to spend a lot of money! And I like him! He is a complete smart@!# and I love people that can keep up with my dryer sense of humor! And throw it back at me! So... He walks in and as I was gearing up for a night of bantering, he suprised me! He looked at me and said, "You look happy!(in a very loud voice!) Your so much hotter!" Yeah, the hot part made me feel good, but that isn't how Iview myself. I am not hot and I don't care to be. I am me! But he wouldn't let it go. He kept telling me this all night long. And then it hit me... I am happy! I am excited for my Martini Contest(in 15 more days!) and my wonderful fiance and I are doing good, planning things and gearing up for summer! And we are just corny and I love that!! The other day we were driving home(Matt, Weezer and I) and we were just dancing and having a good time (see what I mean when I say corny!) It's awesome to be totally comfortable with someone! Then with Weezer doing so good, even though he tends to get sick alot! But I really couldn't ask for a better son! Life is GOOD! For once I feel like it couldn't get any better! And I am not saying perfect, but the bad things are what keeps things interesting! No one is perfect and why would you want to be! Now that I got alittle inspirational speaker on ya I think its time to get ready for work! I hope I didn't bore you to much! I just had a realization!!

Infatuations and Fevers!

I have been really into youtube lately and I have been seeing these girls with gorgeous hair and wishing I had hair like theirs! I have always had really thin hair that is limp and lifeless! And then I started to watch their tutorial and some of them had clip-in hair extensions!! Well...I looked up on how to make these wonderful hair extensions!! It turned out to be really inexpensive and really easy!! So in the pictures above, on the right is me with the clip-ins in my hair! And then the one next to it was Weezer copying me in one of the other pictures I didn't think turned out so well (I'm a dork!). But he turned out so CUTE! And then me without the extensions in and another one of Weezer!

But this morning, Weezer came in and woke me up saying that he wasn't feeling good and that he needed to go see a doctor to fix, because he was broken. And he has been sick none stop with the sniffles, but tonight we got home and he felt hot. I took his temp and it was up to 102. Of course I start freaking out!! And I got it to go down, but my poor little man is just so sick!! Off to the doctors tomorrow!!

Lactose, Almond Milk and The Asylum

So, I have been having the hardest time this winter with my health! I keep catching colds and the flu!! I really can't stand being sick and this is driving me nuts!! So, this last time I went to the doctor and was perscribed some medication and while I was taking it...it made me really sensitive to things and I think it might have made an allergy alittle more noticable! I think I might be allergic to dairy!! (Crying!) But so on to the next thing, I decided to cut all dairy out. So, I bought some almond milk. And it really is pretty good! But the second morning of having it, My little weezer decided to wake up and not wake me up right away. Naughty, Naughty little boy! But he thought it was choca milk... Well he woke saying that he was scared! And so of course I console my precious baby boy and cuddle and watch cartoons with him in bed, because he was really insistant that we stay in bed (first clue! but the blonde didn't get it!). And then since I did just wake up I said that I really had to get out of bed( I had to pee. Sorry to much info but it's part of the story) I go in the bathroom and there is no toilet paper (second clue. Still didn't get it!) So, I walk into the kitchen to get some more from the cupboard and I notice a big wet mark in the floor. Then I notice the toilet paper in the middle of it and then the carton of almond milk laid on it side... open! To say the least I saw red! Deep red with fumes coming from my ears. So, I turn on my heels and to my surprise Weezer is right behind me with tears in his eyes. He looked up at me and says..."I sorry Mommy...please don't mad... I sorry!" And the tears start flowing. *frustrated sigh!!* And my heart melted!! I just told him to go to his room and think about what he did. So I cleaned it up and then let him out of his room. Poor Baby knew what he had done wrong. But looking back at it I can't help but laugh!
Oh! I am so excited for the Artini Festival!! I am entering in to the Martini Contest again this year!! If you are in Cody Wyoming April 16th and are of age to drink. You should come and check out his competition!! I won Judges choice last year and I think I have an awesome drink this year! I am calling it an Asylum!! Kind of Dangerous sounding but so so yummy! Well, I had lots to talk about! Sorry I haven't blogged in a long time, But hopefully I can get back into this again!!
Love, Laugh and Drink Up!

Thanksgiving!

I love Thanksgiving! It's a time for family! When I was younger we would spend everyother holiday with both sides of the family. The women cooking and the guys doing what they do and us kids doing everything possible to sneak some food or pie! When I was alittle older my whole family would go to my parents house and it was wonderful! My parents would cook along with my grandma. Then it was time to eat and almost 20 of us would sit at the tables lined up in the living room. Then after dinner came the pies! Oh! So many pies! Then we would sit there and talk for hours. And now we will still go up to my parents and do the same thing, just not as many of us, but that isn't a bad thing in the least! There is nothing like family and I am always thankful for my family!

Long Time No See!

So, it has been a very long time since I have blogged! Lots of things have been going on!! My summer has been none stop! I am now head bartender at work! Yay! Finally I am being rewarded for my efforts!

I have been dating this amazing man named Matt (aka Matty to Gunnar). And he has been keeping me plenty busy! We took a trip up to Great Falls and several to Billings Montana!

And I have started to make purses and sell them! Hopefully soon I can get an Etsy shop started if I could get some time to get some extra purses made! Right now I have four purses to make! I made my first one for me, because I wanted something I could use as a purse and a diaper bag. I love it so much!! And it is so satisfying to make something!

Then that sweet guy of mine got me a suprise a few days ago!!! I came home to an 8th month old Dog! She is a border collie/ setter/ heeler mix. And her name is Martini!! Juno has warmed up to the idea of having a sister finally!!

And that is the short version of my summer! Hopefully I will find more time to write more blogs!!

Love, Laugh, and Drink Up!!
