Dude Turns 24

I've celebrated three birthdays with Dude and with each one I get more and more excited! I have the mindset that every year you celebrate a birthday you have a very wonderful reason to celebrate. Each new year is a victory and a blessing. Now, when I'm a little older, I'm sure I'll start hiding my real age and do the whole Nanny Fine deal and be 29 for a very long time. However, right now I love birthdays!

Dude's birthday is actually today (Oct. 8) but one of his best friend's had a birthday on Oct. 5 so instead of a party at home, we hit up downtown for some night life. Normally I would have taken TONS of pictures but we were having too much fun! So this is why no blog happened Saturday.

Fun fact: Dude shares a birthday with his father who also is a twin. On his actual birthday we will be partying with the whole family! So, Dude got some presents early!

Another fun fact: Walmart has some pretty fun exercise shirts going on right now!

These two wonderful finds weren't the only presents I gave Dude. We're really into video games over here so (with Dude's new flat screen from his parents) I got him Borderlands 2! He was very excited and we immediately started to play.

In conclusion, we had a great weekend with very little picture evidence minus a few phone pictures. Sorry! I'll be better next time!

If you go to Walmart and find any more fun shirts, take a picture and send it this way! Or if you already have one of your own, don't hesitate!

Side note: I haven't had short hair in a very long time. Look at the madness when I curled it!

Crazy face!

Confounding Corners of Doom

I am the QUEEN of clutter. You think your tiny space has a lot going on? Probably can't compare to mine. Over the years I've squashed most of my pack rat urges but there are just some things I can't quite let go of. So I put random trinkets in plastic tubs, boxes or just let them roam freely throughout the apartment. A part of me is deeply ashamed at my lack of will power but some tendencies are too hard to let go of sometimes! (It also doesn't help that I live with Dude who doesn't believe in organization or, for the matter, laundry baskets.)

I probably could have continued to live my life as the Ruler of Unnecessary Clutter but since I work from home, I get a 24/7 view of messy clutter and I just can't take it anymore!

So, with one of the MANY To Do lists I've acquired, I've decided to tackle the confounding corners of doom that reside in my apartment. For all of you out there who live in tiny spaces but have a lot of things (whether unnecessary or not) you may have one or two of these.

What are CCDs?
