This Weekend Was [Cuddle] Perfect

~Friday~
I got to sleep in with Amazing Boyfriend, which is just wonderful in itself.  And to make it even better, he got up to make us breakfast!  -- egg burritos with bacon.
I laid in bed, watched some TV, and soaked in the laziness, while he got things ready.
I got up, we ate, and laid on the couch cuddling.
{There is just something about cuddling with your man that brings calmness and relaxation.}

We watched some shows and football games, and around two, he left to grab us some lunch.

After lunch, we cuddled some more, until around five, we both had to leave -- him to go coach his junior high hockey team and me to my massage.
I left before he did, and headed over to Massage Best Friend's house to get a wonderful massage.
Afterwards, I headed to the rink to watch his last game.

We both headed home when the game was done and I got to cooking our dinner --filet mignon with mashed potatoes and cooked veggies.
It was so delicious!  I had been marinating the meat in my special sauce for almost two days prior to cooking it.

After, we enjoyed a huge big bowl of ice cream and bought a movie on OnDemand called Trespass.
I've never heard of it before, but it had Nicholas Cage and Nicole Kidman in it.
The movie was INSANE!  Good, but insane.  I was clenching onto Amazing Boyfriend's hands the whole entire movie.  My stomach hurt quite a bit after.  Those types of movies that can really happen do that to me.
I took two Tums and we headed off to bed.

~Saturday~
I got to sleep in until about 10:30(!), which is so wonderful, since Fridays and Saturdays are my only sleep-in days.

I finally rolled out of bed around 11, brushed my teeth, washed my face, and strolled into the kitchen to warm me up some chocolate chip waffles.
It was freezing in my cute little apartment, so I put on some socks and a sweatshirt and settled down on the couch to watch some of my shows.

It was coming up on noon when I decided I should get off my lazy butt up and get started on my Saturday cleaning before I got too comfy.
I got to my cleaning and was done in about an hour/hour and a half.  I was very proud of myself, except for the fact that during my cleaning I dropped and broke our tooth brush holder, that comes in a set.  So I have to go Walmart today to see if I can find it sold separately, so I don't have to buy the whole set again online.
Cross your fingers!

I'm very hungry after I get done cleaning, vacuuming, and doing laundry.
I did a lot of shopping a few days ago, so our kitchen is very stocked up and a sandwich sounds delicious, since I have all the fixin's.

Amazing Boyfriend came home from work around 3ish and we cuddled on the couch, while he took a nap, and I watched TV.

Around 6, I got up to start dinner...something I had been craving for a while --burritos!
And OMG, they were so good!  I cooked up some Mexican rice to go along with it, and I made us some margaritas! Yum! 
We watched some football and ate our dinner, then got right back to cuddling up on the couch.
(I know, we're like pros at cuddling...but we never get to see each other with our work schedules, so when we do, we want to be as close together as possible.)

About 10 o'clock, we remembered to turn our clocks back, and headed to bed.  
(I didn't even have to change, because I, for once, got to stay in my pajamas ALL DAY!  Which was SO NICE!)
We turned on the TV in our room to watch before we fell asleep and found that Aladdin was on ABC Family.
After about 20 minutes, we were passed out...cuddling.

~Sunday~
With the time change and all the relaxing cuddling, I am feeling pretty good.
I got up at a descent time and got ready for church.
Got to church around 9ish and after, headed off to my parents for the day.

I've got to head to Walmart here pretty soon and hopefully Super Mom will be so kind as to do my hair for me, because my roots getting bad.

-------------------------------------------------------

I love my life, but this weekend was one of the best I've had in a long time.
Especially with all the cuddling!

How was your weekend?

I'm an ALL OVER THE PLACE blogger!


I've never blogged before, and a few months ago when I saw an old friend was blogging, I figured I'd give it a try.  I had no idea what I was going to blog about or if I'd even like it, but I had to try.  I started off talking about myself and my life, to talking about my family and delicious meals that I cook, to shopping and fashion.  Pretty much whatever came to my mind or what I was into/doing that day/week, I'd talk about it...and I'm addicted.  Blogging is now apart of my daily life and my blog posts are all over the place.  

I'm Sarah.

I'm a nanny who plans on becoming a first grade teacher.

I'm in LOVE with this man.

Shopping, fashion, health/beauty and makeup are some of my daily topics.
(she has a ton of 'how-to' videos)

I link up pretty much every day of the week.

Home Tour: Week Three

So after a week off for my vacation, I'm back for week three of my home tour!
www.thebargainblonde.blogspot.com
This week I'm showing off my living room.
My favorite.
Our cute little apartment doesn't have any storage closets,
so our vacuum and cleaning supplies 
I've tried to place nicely without looking odd.
(Like that hope chest below the window holds all our
toilet paper and paper towels.)

What I'm Loving Wednesday


I'm loving that Friday at this time I will be in a plane on my way to Florida!

I'm loving that I might have tomorrow off from work.

I'm not loving that a stranger was in my cute little apartment two days ago
and stole my makeup bag.
(and who knows what else, that I haven't noticed)

However, I'm loving that amazing boyfriend is setting up our
alarm system today so I can feel somewhat safe again.

I'm loving that I wore comfy clothes to work today.

I'm loving that I get to pick up my fixed necklace amazing boyfriend
gave me for christmas because it broke last week.

I'm loving that Big Hearted Sister is coming over tonight
so we can catch up on our shows!

I'm loving this weather.

And I'm loving, again, that I'll be in Florida for a week on vacation!

Home Tour: Week Two

Last week, if you missed it, I started off week one with a tour of my bathroom.

Now it's on to the bedroom...
It's small, I know, and not very decorated...yet.
Kinda cluttered and the TV doesn't have cable, so we never use it. 
I really want to get a white head board.
Didn't really want the desk in the bedroom, so hopefully later on we'll
get a two bedroom so we can have an office.

Home Tour: Week One

I saw last week on Crazy Mommy's blog that she was following The Bargain Blonde with her 'Home Tour.'  I know I'll be doing this a few weeks late, but I figured I'd give it a try to show off my cute little apartment.
www.thebargainblonde.blogspot.com
I'll be posting as part of the home tour every Saturday (even though I know today's Sunday..I was busy yesterday), instead of Monday, since I do my weekly cleaning on Saturdays, and that's when everything will look pretty :)

The weekly showing will go as follows... (only five weeks, since I'm only in a one bedroom)
Week One: Powder Room (bathroom)
Week Two: Bedroom
Week Three: Living Room
Week Four: Dining Room & Kitchen
Week Five: Patio & Laundry Room

So here goes Week One...the powder room:
here it is!
(small, I know)
the towels to the left are "look but don't touch" towels
(yes, I have those kind haha)
 Well, there's the bathroom...stayed tuned next week for more...

What I'm Loving Wednesday


For starters, I'm loving Amazing Boyfriend.
I sliced open my foot last night,
and he took such good care of me :)

I'm loving getting to lay on the couch
and put my foot up...
while at work.

I'm loving that I just had cheese and crackers
for breakfast,
because the family I work for never has anything to eat.

I'm loving that tonight, Big Hearted Sister
is coming over to my cute little apartment
so we can watch the special reunion of 16 & Pregnant.

I'm loving that I still only have one follower
on my blog...

I'm loving that I'm watching Victorious right now.

I'm loving that I bought more of my
Wild Vines Strawberry Zinfandel
last night, so I can have it when I get home tonight.

I'm loving that I get Friday off of work this week.

I'm loving that I have to write yet another
psychology paper before Thursday night.

I'm loving that I can finally paint my nails tonight.

And I'm loving that when I get home tonight,
I get to go through the new clothes I got in the mail yesterday
from WetSeal :)
(I know...more shopping guilt)

Sisters From Other Misters

I have four sisters.  We're all between the ages of 17 and 22 (very close in age, I know).  We are all close with each other in our own individual ways.  Growing up, we have all had to share rooms with each other at one time or another, so we have loved and hated each other at different times, like any other sibling would.

(us about 5 years ago)
Closest in age to me is New Mommy Sister.  She's 21 and had her first baby about three months ago.  Yes, I'm an auntie!  She had a beautiful little girl and is turning out to be a great mom.  When New Mommy Sister first came to live with us, I didn't like her very much.  I think because being able to have my own room all my life, to all the sudden having to share a room with my cousin, um yah, didn't go over to well with me.  So for the first few years sharing a room together, we didn't have a very good relationship.  However, when we both got into high school, things changed.  We started hanging out with each other more because we had some of the same friends.  We hung out all the time and soon became inseparable.  When I got into college, we grew apart a little bit, but we're still really close, and are even in the same class at school.  So even though we both don't live at home anymore, we get to see each other every week in class.

(at her graduation)
Next, is Drama Queen Sister.  She's 19 and the "oldest" of the twins (by like 13 minutes).  Now she has always been a drama queen ever since I can remember.  If she didn't get her way, she would pout and tell you to "go-go" (as she would say when she was little).  As she got older though, she would tell you exactly how she felt, whether it was nice or not (she's even gotten into a few cat-fights).  When she isn't mad, she can be the sweetest girl ever.  A lot of people, when they meet her, think she is my twin because we look so much alike.  She does remind me a little bit of me, but more on the extreme side.  We get along pretty good, but since she's moved out of the house, we don't talk much anymore, and it kind of bums me out.

(aw, aren't we cute?)
Big Hearted Sister (the other twin) is also 19, of course, and currently working with special needs children.  She works for a company that calls her whenever a family with a special needs child needs to be taken care of (so, kind of like a special babysitter).  She doesn't know yet what she wants to do in the future, career-wise (she's changed it so many times), but she's still going to school.  Big Hearted Sister will do about anything for you, even if you haven't been so nice to her.  She loves all the fantasy and super hero type movies and doesn't care if you know it.  Her and I are pretty close now, and she comes over to my cute little apartment every Wednesday to watch our shows.  We make fun of each other all the time, but that's our way of showing that we love each other.

(walking at graduation)
Lastly, Smart Blonde Sister, is my little sister who graduated from high school last night.  She's 17 and I think smarter than all of us combined.  She may be very, very blonde, but was in AVID and took a lot of honor classes.  She keeps to herself for the most part, but once you start talking to her, she can really talk your ear off.  You can give her any topic and she can go on for hours about it (she's always been like that).  Now when I say that she's very blonde, I mean it.  She has her moments where you wonder about her sometimes and then just laugh your head off.  I can tell you a million stories from when she was little to now, but I won't get into them because I don't want to embarrass her too much.  Haha.

No matter what, I love all of my sisters...
