Ohio State

I just watched Ohio State's perfect season ellude them. They were ranked number one and had a 24-0 season so far this year. They just lost to Wisconsin. :(    71-67  Well, at least it was a close game. I guess we'll find out who will now be ranked number one next week.





I used to like watching basketball when I was younger. We are talking ten years old or so. I remember watching the Charlotte Hornets ALL the time. Remember when STARTER jackets were cool? I inherited a Michigan STARTER jacket from my older brother. How my father allowed anything Michigan in our house I'll never know.  Did you or your friends have STARTER jackets? And what team were you supporting?



I loved the Bulls and loved watching the greats like Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen. I wonder what they are doing now.....besides being the spokesperson for Hanes underwear and undershirts.






I have really started getting back into basketball (only took me about fifteen years) and I really want to go see an OKC Thunder game. I think it would be fun. Maybe I can plan a time when I and my friends can caravan to a Thunder game. I think that would be exciting. Go THUNDER!






But college sports is really what I like to watch. Football and basketball are my favorites. And of course, I watch the Buckeyes! How can you not like a mascot like Brutus? He's great!


How people don't like Brutus the Buckeye, I'll never know

Anyway, Go OHIO STATE! Go Sooners! Go Cowboys! Even though the Bucks lost, I wish the rest well!

February Break?

With all of this time off from work I find myself looking at pretty things online. My friend Colleen texted me today and said her cabin fever was pushing her towards online shopping. I completely understand! If I had unlimited funds, I think I would go crazy.

I found these shoes from anthropologie and I am in love! Come on summer! I am ready to wear these!



These other wedges are from aldo.


Can you tell I love summer? I really dislike wintertime. I hate the cold weather and the snow! Especially this year. I know everyone is going to think I'm crazy, but I honestly would rather be at work right now. At this rate, especially with more snow on the way later this week, we'll be going to school until July! Ugh!


Here's to looking at some fun summertime things online today!

Can't Resist

I think everyone should have a beautiful necklace. I think this necklace from JCREW is beautiful.

Snow Fun

Here are some pictures of the fun Sarah had outside today. It was a heatwave today! 35 degrees! I shoveled our driveway to try and get my car out and I wore a short sleeve shirt.


The beginning of the snowman





Sarah and her snow(woman). Sarah is almost 5'10" so this snowman is tall!

Our neighbors had really long cool icicles. We had none.  :(




Squeaker had the right idea. He took full advantage of the warm spot from the sun.





Junk Food Get Out Of Here

Oklahoma had a record breaking week with the blizzard that blew through Tuesday. On top of the 14-15" of snow Tulsa got Tuesday, it snowed another 4 or 5 inches Friday.

I have some sweet neighbors, Ashley and Ryan Daly, who let me and my roommates borrow their snow shovel. They are such generous and kind people. :)

My poor little car hasn't moved from it's spot since Monday evening. By Wednesday, my roommate Jessica and I were kicking ourselves for not buying junk food and chowing down with our time off from work. Out to Wal-Mart we went! What an adventure. The roads in the neighborhood were not good, especially right where our neighborhood street and the main street instersected. We got stuck. I had to get out and help push. A nice man who came out of nowhere also helped. He even fell down because I think he was pushing so hard. We got unstuck and the man simply disappeared. He was nice to help us, two girls stuck in the car. Thank you sir! Whoever you are!

Jessica and I finally made it to Wal-Mart and we bought our things. Junk food galore! There were people there buying all the necessities they had run out of, eggs, milk, etc. Nope, we bought junk food and now I am regretting it. Of course I'm still going to eat all of it but I definitely noticed a difference in my workouts this week. I was huffing and puffing much more than I normally do with a healthier diet. I'm getting back on track on Monday! So here's to stuffing my face this weekend to get rid of all my junk food!

This is my first post ever, so I will attempt to post some pictures when I figure out how.
