I really need to clean my room. I haven't cleaned it for a little bit. And it's really starting to show. I'm torn between should I work or clean this mess up before Jeremy gets home? I think I am leaning more towards cleaning up the mess and then working. Hopefully, it won't take too long to clean up this room. I really want to get as much work done as I can before Jeremy comes home. Cleaning the room will be my form of Apidexin! I really should be cleaning right now instead of posting and listening to my book. I should have really set an alarm to wake up a little earlier than what I did. Oh well. Should have could have would have. Isn't that how it goes?

Alright, I'll start cleaning now.

Has anyone seen this movie, Marley and Me? Well, I watched it yesterday. I knew I shouldn't have watched it. I knew it was going to make me cry. My sister warned me after she read the reviews. But, I just wanted to see it because I heard it was pretty funny. Until you got to the end. I think I cried for like 20 minutes straight. It was terrible! So sad! I won't watch that movie again.

A positive note to add, I watched the new Night At The Museum. Now that was a funny movie with no crying! I really enjoyed it. Too bad the movie didn't add anything about Westgate. But even without it, it was still good. Although, I think I enjoyed the first one more than the second one. I wouldn't mind watching it again.

Yes, those are the cookies I made a couple weeks ago. Sorry on my delay with posting them. These are called chocolate mint sandwich cookies. I got the recipe from my Martha Stewart Cookies. Oh man, these cookies were so good. The only problem I had was that I didn’t make enough of them! My family wanted more. They tasted just like girlscout cookies. I will have to make them again. Although, the next cookies I make are going to be caramel cookies. My sister said she was tired of me making just chocolate cookies. Haha. I can’t help, I love chocolate! They came out very well and were very easy to bake. You can get the recipe over at frosted fantasie. I guess after you're done looking at the cookies, you can look at some breeches!

Last week I turned 21. Yay. Okay, so to me it was just turning another number. It wasn't something I wanted to go out and get smashed. Just wasn't in me. But I did make margaritas and shared the time with my mother and sister. Which was a lot more fun than going out with friends and going to a bar or something typical like that. I enjoyed the night with my family. Before all that, my sister made me a cake, which was delicious. Here's a couple pictures of the festivities.


Trevor and I.


Blowing out my candles.


My mom smashed my face.


Me and my cake. Oh and Nick

That was a lot of fun. Almost as fun as looking at Kohler bathroom sinks!

The weather has been absolutely beautiful. Although, the past couple days have not been as hot as last week. Which I am not complaining about at all. I love when the weather is just right.

I have almost completed the first Twilight book. I'm having it read to me while I work. Well, the book is amazing. So, I watched the movie before I completed the book. And the movie was amazing too. I want to watch it again, it was so good. I'm almost done with the book. I think there is only one chapter left to be read to me. I am very excited to read all the other books. Well, have them read to me. It sure does help pass the time while I work. I'll start where I've left at and next thing I know, I'm almost done working! It goes by so fast. I love it.

I almost love it as much as I love Outer Banks foreclosures. Okay, maybe not that much.
