Apple Apps Obsession

I have not posted in such a long time, I know. I have just been so addicted to this show called "Grey's Anatomy" and I think I have mentioned it in a post or two before. I have also been crazy addiction to these few apps that I have installed on my iPhone. Let me share them with you and if you have yet to ever try them, try them!

Small Street

The first one is called "Small Street." Basically you manage and create a street by stocking and hiring residents. You build town homes and these little people move into them and you hire them in a business you have built. You earn money from taxi driving and your little people working. I know it may sound a little dumb but trust me it is so much fun. I can not even describe all of the fun I have with this app.
So if you have a iPhone, install this snazzy app and get addicted to it with me.

Restaurant Story

This one I have tried before and was very addicted to. I ended up getting a little carried away with it and losing interests because I played it constantly. There are different types of story games but I found that this one was the most fun. You build a restaurant and make food for your customers. The food is on a timer meaning it takes a little awhile to prepare and it all varies. You just expand and expand your restaurant as it grows. It is just a blast and pretty addicting beyond belief. This is another grab. It is also available on Android.

Vinted & Threadflip

These apps are not games but they are also pretty addicting. You can buy, sell and swap your closet. Have any clothes, shoes, purses or even jewelry that you just do not want but do not want to throw away? Well Vinted and Threadflip are the way to go! I have actually sold a few things so far. But I still need to dig into my closet and post them. I swear I have too many clothes that I just will never touch again. They are both the game but have different ways about them. Install them both and I swear it is a life saver!

High School Story

This app is very similar to Restaurant story. I think it may actually be from the same creators of Restaurant story. But you build a high school and you can even customize the students on campus. You level them up with the books you buy and yada yada. It is a lot to explain but it is a loud of fun as well.

So if you have a iPhone or even an Android try these! Because I swear they are just too darn addicting.

You can thank me later!

Weekly Wednesday

I meant to do this Wednesday but so much came up. If I have yet to describe this before then I will do so now. Every Wednesday I will post pictures I took out through the week kind of like what people do on Fridays. The "Friday Favorites" thingy except mine will be "Weekly Wednesday." Get it? Because through out the week... weekly. Well I thought it was cute. Give me a break, I am not creative whatsoever. So for me to come up with something like this I deserve a little pat on the back! Here we go.. My husband bought me the iPhone 5 for Valentines and I am IN LOVE with the camera. I swear though switching my android to apple is like switching from Windows to Mac. So complicated. I just wanted to see what all of the heap was about the iphone and I am assuming it is the camera because it is quite amazing.
I shall prove it.

Tattoos are beauty. Not trash.

This handy app has given me a couple minutes of breathing time. Keeps him entertained. 

The fact that he makes messes as soon as I clean up has last ones.

His sweet face is what carries me out through the day.

I prefer fake trees over real plants. Simply because I suck at caring for real plants.

I wore makeup today. More makeup than usual. Because usually all I wear is mascara. Buuuuut. I am going back to just wearing mascara.

This dog has been through with my husband and I through thick and thin.

College books = money pit

PS4. That is all.

I could not help but to take this. He loves this dog and hugs him constantly. Sadly the dog is a tad bit jealous of him and prefers to keep his distance from him.

Thank you readers! Share and enjoy!

Dorrian John;

I know I have posted so many times about how worn out I am. But I am. I am so worn out. My husband works constantly, so basically I am a single mother. At least I feel that way. I know the mother is the main care taker and all, but I do wish I had a little help every now and then when needed. My son looks up to me as his best friend, and knowing that warms my heart. But the fact that he knows I am his best friends he also rebels against me. He refuses to listen to me and cries when I do not want him messing with something. Simply because he knows I will cave in because I hate seeing his tears. I created this child with my own body. I fed him with my nutrients and molded him into this perfect little being. There is truly nothing stronger than a mother's love for her son. I love this child and love doesn't even seem like a strong enough word to cover my feelings for him. 

Today he refused to take a nap. Today he did something he has yet to do in a very long time. I went to lay him down and he would cry and cry. I went to pick him up and try again and he would cry. So I finally gave up and caved in like he knew I would eventually. Usually his bed time is around 8 or 8:30. Tonight around 6 we decided to watch Elmo youtube videos together because it is the only thing I can do to get his attention long enough to be close to him. During the video I replayed 6 times he fell asleep. Whenever I looked down at him to see that he was asleep my heart melted. I know it may sound a little weird. But all the stress he put on me that afternoon from his fits because he was tired but did not want to nap -- was gone. I smiled and thought to myself how thankful I am to have such a beautiful son sitting next to me. A son that looks like me and loves me for me. He loves me for the person I am and does not even notice my flaws. Even when I am crying or angry he is there to look at me with his smile and make it go away. He is just simply my other half. 

He may drive me nuts and I may just want to pull my hair out time to time. But the fact is, God gave me this little being. He allowed me to create this child and have something... finally. My son has given me courage in myself, Confidence and faith that I can achieve things. For that, I love him for. Which is one of the unlimited reasons why I do love him.

I have been in the middle of trying to study for my A&P lecture test. It is my first test in this class and I am so nervous. I HAVE to pass this class. If I do not I owe financial aid and I will not be accepted into the RN program unless I retake it. Which just cannot happen. I will be busy the rest of the week. Sadly but I will. But hey, maybe this good ol' Texas weather where it snows in the middle of February will come in handy. Maybe it will snow and cancel class for the week. So that I can put more... a lot more effort into my studying. We can't call that procrastinating or anything, it's Texas's fault.

God is Great, God is Good

The title says it all. The title needs no detail because the title can mean a thousand+ things. God is great, god is real. Sometimes people find God by being in a deep pit or by being raised around God in their families. I found him by life just taking turns and me struggling to go on by myself. God helped me. Recently, God helped my family too. Since moving here we have been sort of stressed financially because my husband is the only one with income so that I can be a mother and a full-time student. We were having a hard time because our bills are way more than expected and so as of right now we are planning on us both going to school half-time and getting jobs to support living here. The other day was very stressful for us both. My husband was in a stress coma for days and that one particular day he was in this coma all morning. I was trying to get him out of it but he was just so stressed financially that we were both just in a pit of misunderstanding what to do. He left for work and two hours into it he received a promotion as a front desk manager. If I have yet to tell you before my husband was a front desk agent at our Holiday Inn Express here. He was hired a month and a half ago and received a promotion. He is outstanding at his job and sadly the last hotel he worked at did not see that and lost him. Which was causing problems in our marriage because of that job he had. Which is a totally different story. The point being... God heard us and gave my husband a promotion. He saw we were struggling and was needing his guidance and gave us his hand. For that I am thankful for. As I said before God is great, God is real.

Lately, I have become obsessed with this series on Netflix called "Grey's Anatomy." It is simply just amazing. It helped make me realize I want to go medical school. I do. I do. I do. Hopefully I will. But having a kid makes that so very difficult and out of reach, almost. I have been depressed lately because I feel as though I will not be able to follow what I want in life. I want to be successful. I want to be one of the women that can say I am successful and I do something many people can not do. But I also realized that I can do whatever I want to do. It will just be a little laggy than most. People that use their kids as obstacles in life is shameful. Because you can do just about anything you truly want to do. Kid or no kid. You can, and I am a strong believer in that. My moral to life is "You can do anything you set your mind to." My husband seems to argue with me about this because he believes you can't. He believes you can do to your potential but there is a limit. I do not understand his thinking. But it is his opinion. So as of right now, I am getting my associates in Registered nursing. Afterwards, get a job as a RN and after a few years go and get my Bachelors then go off the medical school and see where it takes me. That is my goal, my dream. I will do anything in my power to pursue it. Nobody will stop me.

I took this picture a few days ago while I was sitting in the car at Dollar General. I took this because of all the litter. I was shocked but at the same time I was disgusted. I am not a "tree hugger" but I do care about this world. I do not believe that it is bad for the nature and blah blah. But I think people should care about the earth and people should take care of it. There are people in this world that have a job having to walk five feet to throw something in the trash can. I can not tell you how many times I have seen used diapers in the parking lot because a mother/father could not throw the diaper away. I just hate the laziness in this world. Beer bottles, fast food cups and there is no telling what else just thrown on the ground. It just simply drives me crazy. Which is why I volunteer in the adopt a highway service when available. I enjoy doing it. 

 So my son before bed thought that he needed a bag of cookies. So what did he do? He went and got his bag of cookies out of the cabinet and ate them in front of me. I just love how much he is growing but at the same time hate it because he is becoming less of a baby and more of a big boy. But like you always hear he will always be my baby. I know one day my big "NO" will not stop him from doing something he shouldn't. But I hope I will raise him to be a respectful man. Although I hate having to raise him in this world because of all the mess going on in it. But I will raise him to be respectful and a man of God. By that he will be one amazing man. I know it is hard to raise a kid the way you want them because after awhile they realize they have a mind of their own. All I give is my love and affection as well as my advice. He has a amazing father, a respectful father which he will look up to. For the years to come I will be a mother and the best mother I can be.

Did The Groundhog See His Shadow?

I sure hope he did. At least at the little "ground hog festival" he did. But by the looks of my front yard I do not see how that is at all possible. My stair case is solid ice. I walked outside to ice pebbles falling from the sky and I could of sworn it was a war zone. Now let me tell you, I live in a small town in north Texas. Where it NEVER snows and you are lucky if you get a nice sunny day here. I can not really explain how the weather is here but if you have ever lived in the mid-west you will have a clue. I hate it. I truly hate living here because of this weather. One day it will be sunny and weather to go to the park the next day you are wrapped up in a blanket burrito drinking hot coco. Today was one of them days. Two days ago it was hot, it was actually weather where I could open the windows and enjoy the sunny day. Today I woke up to ice hitting my window and tip toeing down my stairs outside. How fun.

So yes, I love the fact that the groundhog saw his shadow. Not that I ever gave into those "conspiracy theories" as what I like to call it. It is supposed to resemble the say spring starts. I guess it is at all possible that there can be different seasons in different parts of the state. Wow I should really become a geology expert or a meteorologist. Because I think I just may have cracked something about this good ol' earth. I started this winter season excited. I grabbed up the sweaters in the stores and was ready for this sweater weather. Now I am sick of it, I want the thunderstorms and the sunny weather. So I sure hope it is coming. Because this is old.

I am stuck at my husband's job. Well actually I volunteered after his boss gave us the idea of me coming up here. Just in case this snow stuck and my husband ended up being trapped here. How sweet I know. But it didn't get too bad actually. Walmart was packed with people stocking up on food (and beer of course because of the drunks with the super bowl) because they thought ice age was coming. That is small towns for you, we all get dramatic because of a little ice thinking we will freeze over. Buuuuut once again we did not. Pretty disappointing. I was a little excited for a second there, I will not lie. But there were some HUGE snowflakes coming down it was almost scary to look out the window. -- Not that you can really tell from the picture. 

Mr. Groundhog now that you have seen your shadow can you please tell mother nature to quit smoking whatever she is smoking and make it sunny! Thanks.

I hope you all enjoyed your super bowl night as much as I did. In a hotel down the hall from a bunch of men consuming their weight in beer and cheetos screaming at a T.V. about two teams they hate; as a friend told me. As you have all enjoyed your cheese dip and wings. I ate left over greek bread which was amazing by the way! I hate football. The half naked women that really need some respect for themselves and are called "cheer leaders." How sad that they are so brainwashed into thinking they actually play a role. The beer advertisements that are just getting worse and worse. I am glad my husband has the same morals as I do about football. I guess this post was more of a rant. Can you blame me? I am stuck in a hotel room until 11pm. I am bored, tired and hungry. 

Anyways, I am rambling way too much. Goodnight. 

Focusing On The Past

Today I used my flash drive after not using for the longest time now. After browsing through it for a little while I found a label called, "new folder." I first thought that I should delete it because I did not think it had anything in it. But to my shock, there were a bunch of pictures. These pictures consist of me before I had a kid and before I married my husband. It brought tears to my eyes. Tears of happiness and guilty sadness. Sadness because life back then I did not think of the load I think of now. I was immature and irresponsible which I do sometimes miss because I am just so young. My life took a full 360 and I had a different plan for myself whenever I finished high school. Happiness because I am happy with my life now and God had brought so much to me now that I am so grateful for.

I found pictures of the day my husband and I first met. If you had read my post about meeting my husband than you will know that I met him on online. We met two weeks later in person on Christmas day. My father picked him up and brought him home to spend the holidays with us. I found the pictures of us whenever we met. I think back to that day. The feelings, the shyness and excitement. Now it's been two years and those feelings don't exist. They do but in a totally different way. Now it is strong love and there is no shyness about it. It just brought back a lot because I can picture the way I felt that day, my thoughts and the fact that we only saw each other if we were lucky once a week. I will post the pictures, but you can not laugh. I had a popsicle before I took these so I look a little hideous in them. I look like a four year old who got into their moms red lipstick. Mind you, I was very immature back then and going into that "teenage" phase.

I look horrible and you are probably thinking why didn't that guy run away whenever he saw her for the first time. I know "Heather that is not a good first impression on your part." He thought I was beautiful though. My hello kitty pajamas and all. In fact, he had bought me hello kitty earrings for the christmas present. So yes, he did love me. He still does too! He was a little chubby back then too. 

Consider those the before pictures of myself. Now for the after pictures. After I had a kid. After I got married. Such a dramatic transformation in my maturity and looks. Of course physically as well. Whenever Dorrian was a newborn and I was a mother. 

All of this in a year. Everything happened so fast that I did not even have the time to sit and think about it all until now. These pictures reflect on what that whole year brought and how it changed me. This is a story. A story that I lived and experienced. A story that changed me and matured me in ways I don't think anything else can. But life now is beautiful. I grew up depressed, suicidal and had problems mentally. I was almost put into a behavioral health clinic because of my problems. Now look at me I am a mature grown woman with the responsibility of being a mother and wife. I am the best mother and wife there is too. I was made by God to take on these titles. Thank you God, thank you for everything. Thank you readers for taking the time to read this post.
