The Ten Year Challenge

So. Curiosity killed the cat and I did a little “10 year challenge” (or whatever it’s called that all the cool kids are posting) justttt to see what 2012 Alicia evolved into….. And. Ummm. What happened from there was grossly unexpected. Before we get too deep into this, let me clearly disclaim a couple ofContinue reading “The Ten Year Challenge”

I cried at dinner tonight

Expensive Easter

Easter is expensive……..
Just some random Easter thoughts that go along with me wearing my Easter dress anyway. Easter isn’t canceled and neither are Easter outfits 🙂 I hope you’re wearing yours anyway (and sharing it for us to see!)

Change is in the air…..

Whew, this one turned out to be longer than intended. It’s worth it (or I think it is), to hang in there…….take a bathroom break, do some stretches…..whatever you need to, but hang in there with me! 🙂 I really want to avoid the word “resolution” or any variation of “New Year’s resolution”.

Sometimes and Always

Sometimes you sleep so hard (and didn’t have to get up to pee – YAY!), that you actually hit the 9 hour sleep mark and end up over sleeping a bit. Sometimes you wake up with the worst allergy headache (even though you have never dealt with allergies before) Sometimes your dog is a jerkContinue reading “Sometimes and Always”

Fancy’s Swimsuit Edition…..Wearing Whatever the Flip I want……..

Well. Here goes…the Fancy Pants swimsuit edition is now posted. And I’m actually pretty proud and excited about it. Check out my fabulous swimsuit finds, how much I love the way they hug my body, some little girls that helped me face the fear of posting this, AND how very little I care what the internet thinks about it!

I’m cooler than you on Father’s Day…..

(I’ll get back to funny soon – there are some GREAT dating stories in store) I am cooler! And I’ll tell you why in just a sec (and it’s not just because of how cute I was as a baby – look at that face!). First, I have to say Happy Father’s day to allContinue reading “I’m cooler than you on Father’s Day…..”

Raw and Uncut…ex-boyfriends,triggers and hurts…..

I wasn’t going to say anything. I knew what was happening and I knew how I was trying to handle it was not going to work. But, I let too much “noise” get in my head and tell me that nobody wants to hear it. Or, that it’s been long enough that I should beContinue reading “Raw and Uncut…ex-boyfriends,triggers and hurts…..”
