It's Beginning to Look a lot like..

Fall! It has felt soo good outside the past two days! And guess what that means? Christmas is right around the corner!!!

85 Days until Christmas!

The countdown has begun!

I don't have too much to blog about today, I woke up early this morning to take care of some business. I officially have an Alabama insurance license. I also got power and cable set up in my apartment! And then I proceeded to bake a Chanel purse cake. If you did not know, I have been baking cakes all summer long and absolutely love it!! It's soo much fun; if I could do just that everyday and make money I would! Unfortunately, I don't think that there is much money in the cake baking business! Here are a few that I have done, and I couldn't upload photos tonight so the Chanel cake is just a picture of what I made :)

The bottom cake of course is missing two layers, I didn't want to be wasteful :)

Guess What??

I FINALLY found an apartment and I will be moving next Wednesday!! I absolutely could not be more excited! I have lots to do between now and then, but I am absolutely thrilled! It is so nice to know exactly what date I will be moving and have everything set in stone. Reality has still not set in just yet; I am assuming that it will probably hit me in the head as soon as I move! But none the less, I am absolutely ecstatic to know that everything is beginning to work out!

Simply Amazing..

Two posts in one day! This is definitely a first!

Well, well, I have BIG news that I forgot to share..

I can talk to my car, and guess what...it talks right back!! Yes, this is correct I finally learned how to pair my bluetooth from my phone to my car. So with one push of a button I can tell my car to do all sorts of stuff!! I was absolutely amazed! If I tell it to dial one of my friends, he dials right away. It has been the most amazing thing..if I receive a phone call instead of my phone ringing, my radio pauses and says that I have an incoming call; it even shows who is calling me! I then have the option of answering the call or declining it (all through my radio of course). It is all handsfree, so if you see me driving down the road I promise I'm not talking to myself..just talking to my car!! I mean I've only had my car for two years and am just now figuring this little piece of technology out, but I absolutely LOVE it! It just made my day :) You should all give me a call next time you see me driving around town! And for those people driving around that do not know about my new little secret, they probably think I am absolutely insane driving around talking to myself!

Tomorrow, Tomorrow..

Well, well, well..I have been trying to get everything done before the big move. I have been on the phone all day trying to transfer my insurance license and all of that fun stuff! I am going back to Birmingham tomorrow to look at apartments..hopefully by the end of the day tomorrow Sophie and I will have a place to live! Things are starting to come together, although I still don't have training dates :( I am afraid that is just a matter of time!

I have been completely lost over the past few days, I had to send my laptop back to get fixed. Hopefully I will get it back very soon, and fingers crossed it may be a new one!! I really don't care to see my old one ever again! It was a good computer, but gosh I can type so much faster when I don't have to copy and paste my "g" and "h" keys! And of course most importantly, my crops have been withering..in Farmville that is, and my restaurant..well it is almost non-existant at this point. I have been unable to keep them both up since I don't have a computer haha! I mean, that's important stuff people!! My family and friends make so much fun of me for playing those games on Facebook..it is so unlike me on a normal day to do anything of that nature; normally I am too busy to even notice them. But hey, unemployment has reached a new high! I am an entrepreneur...on the internet of course! If only I could make that much money in real life :)

While I was out of the blogging world for a little while, I missed a very important birthday! Happy late birthday Riley!! For those of you who are not fortunate enough to have ever met my cousin, Riley, she is absolutely AMAZING!! Happy late birthday Riles and I hope it was the best one yet :)

Riles used to come to make the annual Mayer family beach trip each summer and unfortunately since the wedding she has not been able to make it, but we absolutely could not be more excited about seeing her and Matt at Thanksgiving!!

I Miss..

1. Starkville

2. Living in the Cotton District

3. Living in the same city as my friends

4. Living with my friends

5. Did I mention my best friends??

I NEVER thought I would say this, but since I have moved home I am beginning to appreciate the tiny town of Starkville a little bit more than I used to. Granted, Starkville is very small but I really do miss so much of it.

Well, I arrived in Starkville on Thursday night and had dinner with my roommate from last year. I then met up with my friends and headed out for a night on the town. I woke up the next morning and went to lunch with my roommate from two years ago, and then went to Bulldog Bash later that night. Saturday, I proceeded to tailgate in the junction all afternoon and went out with friends Saturday night. This morning I woke up, had lunch with some friends and headed back to Meridian.

Needless to say, I did not go into the game; however, it was an awesome game. I just wish that the outcome had been a bit better!

All in all, this weekend was amazing and I hope that there are many more to come in the future. Being back in the sorority house for three nights made me feel as if I lived there again. Did I mention that the room I lived in my sophomore year is the room that my sister has now? She picked the room not knowing that was the exact room that I had! Being back in the house brought back soo many fun memories!

I NEVER thought I would say this, but sometimes...I wish I were still in college..minus the studying of course :)

What a day, what a day..

And Im so glad it is over! I am headed to Starkville tomorrow and could not be any more excited about it!! I have lunch and dinner plans with my friends tomorrow and Friday!! Bulldog Bash is Friday night and then the LSU game is on Saturday!! I am really hoping it does not rain!! I have to think of one more dish to make for the tailgate..any suggestions??

On another note, I have to send my computer back to Dell over the weekend, so hopefully it will not be gone for too long! My letter "h" and "g" are still not working so I am hoping that they will both be working when I get it back! You dont realize how much you miss them until they are gone!! I am still copying and pasting them when I have to use them...which is A LOT!! Did I mention I was also missing an apostraphe and a quotation mark? It makes for some really bad gramatical errors on a good day!! I cannot wait to get them all back and working correctly!! I hope that everyone has a good weekend!!

Exciting News!

Well, fall has arrived! I absolutely cannot believe that it is almost October!! Where has this year gone?? Well, after much deliberation I have decided that I will be moving to Birmingham!! I took a job with a health benefits company and I will be selling medicare supplements. I was in Birmingham last Tuesday and Wednesday looking for apartments and I will be heading back next week to look again. I found a few that I really like but I have to narrow it down! I still feel as if I am on summer vacation. I continuously try to write July as the current date and I consistently have to remind myself that it gets dark so early now because it is September, almost October, and not July!! Reality has yet set in..I continue to think that I will shortly be reunited with friends in Starkville. I am afraid reality is going to hit me in the head when I move to Birmingham. I must admit that on a good day unemployment is amazing, but there are many days in which I feel unproductive and bored.

What have I been doing with all of this free time you ask? Well, my creative juices have been flowing!! I have baked NUMEROUS cakes and painted many paintings, and just recently I have been making fall wreaths! I need to start uploading pictures of everything that I make! Well, I am headed to Starkville this weekend for Bulldog Bash and I could not be more excited! I miss seeing my friends everyday!! We have started our own tailgate and I am currently trying to decide what I will be making this week! Any suggestions would be appreciated!! I may go up on Thursday and make it a long weekend!!

And as for little Sophie..
She is getting SOO big!! I think it may be time for her to go on a slight diet :) She is now leash trained and she has the bark of a doberman! She has become quite the guard dog! But she is still just as sweet as she has ever been!

Plans for October:

1-My dads 50th Birthday!!
2-Moving to Birmingham
3-Aunt and Uncle coming to visit

I absolutely cannot wait! And I am going to try and update you more often..I know you must just be killing over in anticipation for each new post :) I hope all is well!
