I'm Melting

The last 3 weeks of my life have been extremely exhausting; hence, my complete disappearance and shut down this weekend. I haven't slept in or been at home for that matter the previous 2 weekends due to me helping my mom sell crap like this to strangers:
Seriously, I made someone pay 5 bucks for this... forgive me lord.

I am a sleeper. I love to sleep and I run the best off of 8-9 hours a night. Well, hubs thinks I'm a wimp and sleeping my life away because he only logs in probably 4-7 on average. I told him the other day, "What do you want from me? Do you want to see bags under my eyes in a few days because I will get ugly if I don't sleep! I NEED SLEEP DAMNIT!" I feel no guilt in admitting that and I think he is insane for calling me weak. Bastard.

This weekend I actually got to stay home (insert happy dance) and actually sleep in and then got to go to the gym so I was back to my normal routine again. It was just what I needed. I don't feel exhausted, I feel good about getting to work out more, (I've only been getting to the gym 3 times a week for the last two when I normally go 5!) and I'm ready for this next week and CK's Birthday Extravaganzzzzza next weekend. My honeybunchesofoats will be 29 on Saturday... (what an old fart) so before he hits the dirty 30 as Cassie would say we are going to celebrate in style. Well, we will really probably just get drunk and go swimming. Hey, he likes to swim what can I say.

Previous weekend Catchup time!!!

Last weekend Chad had another gig at good ole Brady's in Jackson on Friday night and Haley and I decided to have a mini photo shoot:


Doesn't her hair look like lioness like Rawr!

There are more pictures but the wench won't send them to me. BOOO Haley. Anyways, after the gig I stayed in Jackson and the hubs went home because he had to work the next AM. Bright and Early after only 3 hours of sleep Friday night I woke up Saturday morning to help my mom with another garage sale. Haley did buck up and come help at 6am (BEST FRIEND EVER) and the day was pretty fun. It started to rain about 1pm right as we were getting everything inside from the yard so that was just great. Haley and I planned to go shopping that afternoon and we weren't going to let a little TON of rain stop us. My shoes were soaked and I chose to "borrow" a pair of my Grans (she has literally over a 1,000 throughout her house) So, I find a nice pair of Nine West tan flops and go to pick up Haley.

Dun Dun Dunnn.... did I mention is was POURING rain? It was, and we are idiots and didn't bring an umbrella. We had about 6 different stops to make so this was in and out of the car, running through the rain craziness. We did find an umbrella in my car after the first 2 stops but it was little and Haley and I clung to each other like Kate and Leo did on the Titanic which made us even slower running into the stores. I'm sure we were also pretty interesting to watch.

We were having a blast laughing at ourselves until we went to Kroger. I stepped out of my car into a pond full of rain water and my shoes fell apart. Literally they freaking MELTED. WTF! Now, I'm barefoot in a parking lot with no shoes, while its pouring down rain.

Haley is laughing at me and thank God there was a Rue 21 by the Kroger where they sell cheap clothes and CHEAP SHOES! So, I run across the parking lot and into the store barefoot and back to the flip flop wall. They are buy one get one free... we find a pair of black lightening bolt shoes (how appropriate) and buy them for each of us.
Notice the rain water and soaked feet.

We had a great Saturday. I love my crazy bestie.
PS. Get a blog loser.



Have your shoes ever fell apart on you?
What do you like to do for your Birthday?

My Music Monday's!!!

Music makes my world go round and round.


When I run, I’m listing to it.
When I dance, I’m listing to it.
When I drive, I’m listing to it.
When I’m hanging out, I’m usually listing to it.
When I’m at work, I’m listing to it.

I mean come on, I married a musician for God’s sake it’s a pretty big part of my life and I want to share it with you guys. So, I’ve decided to dedicate Monday’s to Music. Kinda like I jumped on the Triple Tangent Tuesday train (thanks to Krista) but this will be My Music Mondays. MMM I’m not sure if something like this already exists in the blog world but if it does let me know and I’ll gladly join up and give credit where credit is do.

Each Monday I plan on featuring an Artist that I am currently obsessed with. I’m going to work on a Button for this so those that are interested can Link up and join me. I love seeing what other people are listing to and what better way to hear about new music! I don’t know about you but I always need something new on my iPod. You can only run to DJ Irene’s techno for so long before something else has to be put in rotation.

Possible Button:
It's a work in progress

The first Artist on the roster will be:






Their new album is absolutely fantastic. I have been listing to the nonstop for the past week and every single song on there is outstanding. Well, except this one song (Paper Cuts) it gets on my nerves for some reason so I always skip it. However, totally go buy the CD or get it on ITunes immediately and you will be so happy you did. Talk about a great summer album perfect for jamming out to in your car or running at the gym. I love Reggae music and the way they mix it with rock, ska, and creamy vocals puts me in a mellow mood fa show.

Songs on the Album:
  1. Panic - 2:24
  2. Only - 2:41
  3. Lovers Rock - 3:25
  4. Murdera - 4:26
  5. My World - 2:29
  6. Paper Cuts - 1:54
  7. PCH - 3:23
  8. Same Old Situation - 3:45
  9. Take It Or Leave It - 3:53
  10. You Better Listen - 3:21
  11. Spun - 3:27
  12. Can You Feel It (feat. Wiz Khalifa) - 3:38
The only complaint is: There should be MORE songs and take out #6. Ahhh I just can’t get enough.


Listen to this honey:


Now, I'm off to the gym - I've got to update my layout later & tell some stories from this past weekend!



Who is your latest MUSIC obsession!??

Feeling Funky.

Do you ever have one of those days were you just feel like what you're doing isn't good enough?

 I'm having one right now - well really it started at noon today when I went to the tanning bed. Okay, so most of you already know I'm trying to lose weight and get fit - well, I've been pretty happy with myself lately. My hubs even says I'm getting a little out of control with how hot I think I am but today I went to the tanning bed in my quest to be black and looked at myself naked in that mirror.

Well, Terri's not happy.


 I mean when I put on my clothes I feel good... I can SEE the difference and I think what I'm seeing looks pretty good; however, naked.... ehh I'm not digging it as much. I know, I know you're probably thinking WHOAAA TMI - well tuff stuff. Losing weight is just such a struggle and an up and down battle. I'm really enjoying my accomplishments but damn those days that slam you down and make you feel like shit SUCK.


I've cranked out 10 miles doing various cardio stuff the last 2 days but I just can't shake this crappy feeling.
 What do you do that gets you outta a funk?

Ode to Olive

When ones dog is a bigger prima donna than their owner this occurs...

"No Bitch, I am not in the mood for pictures right now"

"I'd rather look at the wall than gaze at that camera"

"I am to good for this petty picture taking"

"Your hair is in your face stupid human"

"Put me down right now or I will leave you"

And then she jumped down and sashayed off with her nose in the air.

What a little turd.

"These silly humans worship me"


I'm in love with my dog even though she trys to eat my food and pees on my floor. She's a fluffly little monster. 
How can you not love that little face?

Tell me about your pet and their personality....

Baby Lucas is here!!!

So, I didn't get to run today--- BUT one of my best friends Marley had a baby and we went to see him!

Happy Birthday Lucas Turner Parnell!
You are perfect 7lbs 5oz & 21inches long

Sweet baby with a big crying baby. AKA ME.


I swear I wasn't trying to scare him

Those little hands were coming out to say hi

Chad with baby = me melting

I will throw in this Jewel of a story - Chad totally asked Marley when the baby's eyes open for the first time hahahah I almost died. They aren't puppies honeybaby they are humans and their eyes work immediately.

Matt the proud papa!

& Marley the proud proud Momma!!!

Congrats to Marley and Matt you made a beautiful baby and we couldn't be happier for you two!

We did however, almost die coming back home from the hospital. Chad decided to drive down the ONE WAY road almost the entire way back to the interstate... oh and we saw a black guy on a horse riding down 5th Avenue in downtown Laurel on the way home at 9:40pm. Just another day in the life of Terri.
-------------------------------------------

Oh, and Since it is Tuesday...


Here's another fantastic round of, "3 random things about Terri!" 

1. I am obsessed with reality TV. I watch the following every week:

Real Housewives (EVERY SINGLE SEASON)
Nice 80s prom dress Lorrie and Gretch what the hell are you wearing?

I miss Bethenny and I'm just about hating everyone else

OH no you didn't!

The queens of Beverly Hills

Who gonna check me boo?

I need MORE of Miami!



The Voice

The Challenge




Mob Wives
I love Drita.


Teen Mom
Oh girl.. you a hot mess.

Hi, My name is Ryan and I am a seeker.

This show is cray cray.

Oh, la la there's nothing like a Traveler wedding.

2. I snap my fingers a lot. Like when I want something - I snap. When I'm ready to go - I snap. When I'm excited - I snap. I'm like Lil' Jon snappin my fingers and doing my step.

3. I played softball in high school and absolutely loved it and I miss it all the time. I played 3rd base and I'm going to put it out there that I was pretty good. I mean I probably wouldn't have made the USA team but hey... I'd beat your ass.
