List 21

I'm keeping up with the lists now!!

List 21 in the 30 Days of Lists challenge is Things To Do This Summer (it was Spring but Spring is almost over now!)


All are pretty self explanatory. I love warm weather activities. After being cooped up from the cold winter and quarantined from all the pollen of the Spring, I can finally get outside and enjoy nature once it's Summer!

Thanks for popping by dears!

List 20

List 20 in the 30 Days of Lists challenge: Celebrity Crushes



In case you can't read them all the list is as follows

Johnny Depp (first thing I saw him in was Cry Baby and it was love at first sight)
Brad Pitt (only when he's dirty like in Fight Club and Snatch, I do not like pretty boy Brad Pitt)
Edward Norton
Trent Reznor
Paul Newman (in the movies, not on the salad dressing LOL)
Elijah Wood
Scott Weiland
Charlie Hunnam

I'm sure I forgot a few but these are the major ones and most of them have been since I was a teenager!

Have a great weekend friends!

List 19

List 19 in the 30 Days of Lists challenge: Recipes to Try

How perfectly timed is this list since I keep complaining that I haven't been cooking enough meals lately!?! All of these recipes are pretty simple, a few are from AllRecipes and a few are from these awesome 1970's cookbooks I thrifted.


Oh and I wrote Mangia at the end. I was a waitress in a family owned Italian restaurant for a few years and that word was always said. If you don't know what it is, it's pronounced Mon-ja and it basically means Eat, Enjoy, etc.

I hope everyone is having a great Friday!

Lists 17 & 18

List 17 - Places to See in Allentown
I've only actually been to 4 of these places. The museum, Dorney Park, Lights in the Parkway (you drive through this huge set up of Christmas lights) and the fair.


List 18 - Words that are hard to spell.
I like to think I'm a pretty good speller but there are some words that I ALWAYS mess up!!

Lists 15 & 16

Holy Moly it's been a month since I did any new lists for the 30 Lists Project!! So let's get back to it!

List 15 - Things I love about...
Since I'm such a sap I chose to write about Jeremy.


List 16 - Shopping List



I really missed doing these lists, I'm so glad I got back to it!

Lists 12 & 13

Hey my lovlies, how was your weekend?!

List 12 - Weekly Rituals


List 13 - DIYs I want to try. I only added a few because I know there are many more but totally had a brain fart while writing this list!



What are your go to websites and blogs for awesome DIYs?!

Lists 10 & 11

Happy Friday!

Here are two more lists from the 30 Days of Lists challenge.

#10 On my Wishlist


Pretty self explanitory. Oh except the "real bed" part. I have a futon. My apartment is a studio so I needed something that could convert to seating when I have company. It's alright but my hips don't like it much! If I sleep on the middle part (it's hard since that's where it bends into a couch) I wake up very sore and stiff. I can't wait to have a real bed again!

#11 Date Night Ideas


Again...pretty obvious! On the Border is a Mexican restaurant, it's a chain but it is soo good! Plus most of these things we already do or have done but I'd like to do again. Except shooting guns, I've never done that and I really want to!! Oh and we've never hiked together and we live right by the Appalachian Trail so that's kind of sad that we haven't.
I forgot to put bowling on here. Jeremy loves bowling, he's in leagues and goes once a week. We go together or with friends sometimes and always have fun. The last time we went just the two of us, about a month ago we had such a good time. I honestly felt like we were on a first date or something <3

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!!

Lists 8 & 9

List number 8 is the always fun "What's in your bag?" Mine is full of pretty much all essential stuff for me.

Number 9 is a list of my favorite websites. I could have added blogs but there are just too many!

So those are my lists, I'm all caught up!

On a side note I blew a fuse so all the lights on the one side of my apartment are out. It's really annoying because it is in the living/bedroom, where I always am! The fuse box is in the basement but only the guy in the 1st floor apartment can get into the basement. The landlord was going to email him because apparently he doesn't have a phone, awesome... I really hope he does it today! Ahh the joys of apartment living!

Lists 6 & 7

More Listy Lists! List # 6 - Least Favorite Words

I didn't want to make this page very pretty or anything. I wanted to keep it unappealing since it is about my least favorite words. The first 3 all pretty self explanitory I think. Panties, Moist and Puss...those words just make my skin crawl for some reason! Now on to a nicer looking page! #7 Blog Goals. Would you believe I don't have internet at home?! I don't!! I do all this either at work or at the library on my laptop. Yes, I have a laptop but no internet. It's totally backwards I realize!!

Sometime I'm affraid my true personality doesn't come through on my blog. I edit myself a bit. I curse a lot in real life, I even type my posts with all the curses in it but then I delete them so I don't offend anyone. Also, I'm ridiculously sarcastic. I mean to the point that people who don't know me just think I'm a bitch! I don't really show you guys that side either.

I want a new blog design. The owls are cute but I don't like that it is a template that anybody can also have. Plus, it's a tad too cutsey for me. I do like owls but I like creepy, dark, halloweeny ones, not really cute ones. It's to bright also, I'm more into dark, monochromatic colors like black and grey with maybe a splash of color.

I just started making a list (oh the irony) of blog posts I want to do for about the next 2 weeks! I'm pretty stoked and feel a slight weight off my shoulders. Not that blogging is at all stressful for me but I just like to have things planned out. So now I can use the scheduling feature a lot more! Also on a happy side note, my camera is fixed!! I took the batteries out for a few hours, put em back in and WaLa!

List #5

The original prompt was Weekend Goals but since it is Sunday I changed it to be This Weeks Goals.

I used colored pencils again to make it look like a lined piece of paper. It totally reminds me of my notebooks in school so I decided to doodle all over it like I would have back then =D

I have to finish the book before Sunday for our Book Club meeting. It's a really good book but it's 566 pages, whew!!

We have overtime available at work right now, allegedly for the next 3 weeks. I'm not so sure it will last that long so I'm going to suck it up as much as I can for now! I need to save for Florida!

I have to clean out my closet. I have two closets, one is small and I keep all my linens, kitchen cleaning stuff and other odds and ends I can't fit anywhere else. I have a normal sized one that I have clothes hanging in, all my shoes, laundry basket, air conditioner, christmas decorations, extra blankets, etc. I just need to clean out what I don't wear or need anymore to make space! It's a disaster!

I want to go to Joanns to get some nice springy fabric to make some buntings (one that you could possibly win!!) and I want to dye these lace curtains I got a few weeks ago. They're just white but it's so boring!

I also need to go to the mall to get another pair of jeans and some undies!

Oh and most importantly...enjoy all the time I do get to spend with Jeremy. I see him every Thursday and Saturday. Not much else because he works so much =(

I hope you lovelies are enjoying your weekend!

List #4

Today's Playlist



Totally lame but I didn't really listen to any music yesterday. Only on the way home and this is all I remember.
Also, that is some sheet music from an old newspaper, 1948 to be exact!

List #3

I'm so happy I took this project on. I totally look forward to it every day now!! I did laundry last night and then dishes and had no desire to work on any of my WIP crafts BUT THEN I remembered the lists!! This was a quick easy, peasy one!

The red is felt with a design sort of stamped onto it. I bought it over the holidays wanting to make little felt ornaments but I never did =/
Things I am looking forward to...

Florida Vacation in August. Jeremy's mom bought a time share last year and invited us to go down to Daytona Beach the first week of August. Although the sun and I don't generally get along because I am white as a ghost, I do love to just lay on the beach under a giant umbrella and listen to the ocean. I've been looking up fun things to do like a deep sea fishing trip (I probably won't fish, I'll just hang out on the boat while he does), Parasailing, Jet Skiing (I'm sort of scared of this) and a airboat ride to look for alligators!!

Camping at the Cabin. A friend of mine invited us up to her familys cabin in the Poconos next month! They own half a mountain and we are going to camp all weekend! I looove camping! We've always just done normal tent camping in the woods. Growing up that was our vacations and then as I got older I like to go with friends. There's something so refreshing about hanging out in the woods, swimming in lakes, hiking around, drinking and cooking over a fire, sleeping under the stars and waking up with the sun. Amazing!!

I still have to get my car fixed...it's being a jerk!

Rib Tattoo! I'm waiting to hear back from the artist right now but I am sooo stoked. I've been wanting this tattoo for almost 3 years now and FINALLY have the loot to spare!

Finding out about my job. So remember when I was hoping to get laid off and work part time and start my crafty biz. Well I'm not getting laid off, I was offered another position in the company but I have NO details as to when that will start, what my shift will be, etc. It's very annoying!!

Sunshine!! Holy shit I am sick of snow and ice and cold weather!!!!

Finishing my Granny Square Afghan. I've been slacking on it but I know I'll finish it soon!

Going down the shore. Just another fun summer activity. Walking along the boardwalk and laying under a big umbrella on the beach.

So that's some of what I'm looking foward to right now!

List #2

I'm loving the 30 Days of Lists project. It brings just a little creativity into my day. I haven't been feeling very crafty lately so this will hopefully recharge my batteries so to speak!

Things I'm Good At...



I love the sticker on the bottom, it's supposed to be like a spooky fence. It came in a pack of Halloween stickers. The white one on top is just the backing from the sticker =D
Also I can't find my glue stick!!! It's driving me crazy so I've been just using elmer's glue. Which I don't mind but isn't very good for paper because sometimes it gets wrinkley, ya know?! I have to make a Joanns run this weekend for fabric (spring bunting in the future!!) and I HAVE to remember to get a new one!

I woke up to snow today. Terrible. I'm over snow, I want sunshine and warm weather! I totally have the winter blues and just want to get outside already!
Have a good day my lovelies!

30 Days of Lists!

Last month Nicole told me about this awesome 30 Days of Lists projects but I was so stressed out about my job and what not that I just didn't want to take on anything that required any kind of committment.
A few weeks later and I am feeling better, well not totally better. I'm in a bit of a rut and I need some inspiration and I loooove lists so much I just decided to jump in!

Here is my title page which I really like a lot. I've never used these chipboard letters before but they are super cute!

And here is my first list! A few things about me...



In case you can't read my handwriting it says

I love to craft...it might be a problem!

I am a good friend.

I am the happiest I have ever been!

I am a procrastinator.

I am far more domesticated than I or anyone else ever imagined!

I have a lot of scars but I love them.

I love him more than I ever thought was possible!

So...that's just a few things about me. I used a colored pencil to make the blank page look like lined paper and I really like how it turned out!
