Conversation #163: Summer Fun song of the Week

So I did this little series the last couple of summers, and I decided it was about time for me to bring it back.  I have a little confession, I listen to sports talk radio most days at work - do you all still love me?!  I live in TX so sports are pretty major here, but I also grew up in a family (even though we were all girls) where sports were watched (not really participated in so much).  My mom and my dad are both big sports fans, and although the hubby wasn't so much when we started dating (I was probably more into sports than him), he became a major sports fan in college and sucked me in deep too!  It is fun to get to enjoy it together and especially when we get to cheer on our alma mater together.  Anyway, all of that to say I haven't listened to as much music lately, which is sad because I LOVE music.  So I decided to share my music likes with you - sorry if you don't like them (well, only a little, this is my blog after all)!

So most of you have probably heard of the group Karmin, but I just love them and they make me happy and that is what my Summer Fun song of the Week is all about; listening to tunes that make you want to roll down the window (unless it is blazing hot, like it is everywhere right now) and sing at the top of your lungs with the sun shining down.  There are so many songs that bring back happy summer memories for me so summer music has become something I look forward to each year.  It is usually lighter, poppier, and very catchy!

Okay, back to Karmin.  Love them.  The end.  Here are a couple of songs for you to enjoy (beware, they are a time suck for me on YouTube!)



*No frugal fashion today - I didn't do such a good job at outfit pics this week!

Conversation #32: Kitchen Design Help!

Okay, I don’t really know that too many people read this blog since I moved to a new address, but I’m begging if you do, please help me.  I am at a loss on what to do with part of my kitchen. Here is how I painted my kitchen 3 years ago: It was fun, bright, and I like it, but we decided it needed to be a bit more grown-up these days.  I knew we would have to paint it before we moved so we decided to just go ahead and do it now for a change.  We decided to go with a gray so that it would be neutral but not boring.  However, the gray had a strong blue tone to it on the walls and now I need to phase out my turquoise decor I think. Here are some afters (still putting it back together): Some of these are the same shots but with/without flash to show the colors.  I think I really like the new color, but the turquoise trim does not go anymore in my opinion.  I’m trying to figure out what to do with it, and I need help!!! ...

A Conversation about Absenteeism

Wow!  It has been too long.  I have still kept up on reading everyone’s blogs, but commenting and writing have been out the window for me.  I have thought often about blog topics, and I’ll try to get back on regular posts tomorrow. Basically, the last few weeks have been full of preparing for this past Saturday.  What was this past Saturday, you may ask?  My incredibly intelligent and amazing husband graduated from law school!!!!!!!!!  I can hardly contain my excitement.  I am proud beyond words, and now we just have one last hurdle: the bar exam.  I know the next two and half months will still be full of study, but it still doesn’t squash my excitement of no more late night classes, missed parties, or tension filled finals weeks.  We are done!  I only say “we” because it is definitely a path that affects both the student and family, but trust me, the hubby did ALL the work!  Needless to say though, we had lots of family in town...

Conversation #72: There's creativity and there's creativity

I think most of you know by now that I'm an engineer (still in training, I have to wait until December to apply to take the PE exam, but let's not talk about that - it kind of freaks me out).  Engineers are not generally considered creative, which I actually find sort of funny.  If you think about it, engineers have to be creative because we have to come up with solutions to problems, but I guess when it comes to artsy creative they tend to be lacking. I sort of think I fall in the middle.  I love creating and making things, but I'm sure I do it in an engineer/analytical sort of way.  Take quilting, for example, it is really about geometry in the basic sense.  You can take different basics shapes, and make endless quilts by changing up the fabric or the layout just slightly.  I love that. Anyway, I guess most of my colleagues still fall in the "not so creative" camp.  I had to create a sponsorship sign for a conference at the end of this week for m...
