To my Seester

“I smile because you are my sister, I laugh because there is nothing you can do about it!”


Today my beautiful little sister turns 24 !

 


 {my sis and her bf-these two crack me up}

We haven't always been the best of friends. We have had some blow out-brawl-fights...Once upon a time, I threatened to cut off her finger. Why are girl fights the worst?? Thankfully we can laugh about them today! Love you!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Tail Wagging Tuesday

Hi friends!!! Today I am linking up with CMae for Tail Wagging Tuesday!


 
*Your pet's favorite toy*
 
Well Jax LOVES to chew on things so I always buy him chew toys. I have to get him the "indestructable" ones. I have yet to find one that he can't completely destroy, though. I try to play ball with him, but the tennis balls are taken apart within minutes.
 
KONG and Nylabone have some of the toughest toys. I got him a new KONG bone yesterday. He LOVES it. He is like a child when he gets new toys. He prances around with it in his mouth, showing it off to my parents' dog Shadow, and then will chew it for hours keeping him occupied, which is hard to do.
 
Jax and I had a photo sesh yesterday:

Guess What?!

I am slowly coming back from my blogging hiatus! It hit me yesterday, that I am ready to come back to blogging, but at a slow pace because I am still very busy. I graduate June 3rd! Holla! So, please bare with me!

Warning: Random Post

First and foremost... thanks to all who have kept me in their prayers, sent me emails, comments and tweets. Love y'all so much! You are all so dear to my heart.

Michabella's Cupcakery is getting some business here and there, but is at a standstill until I can find the money to rent a kitchen in order to get my mobile vendors permit/license to take my cupcakes to farmer's markets.

Well as y'all know I've been a wreck the past couple of months. I really drifted away from God, because I have just been so disappointed and sad/mad at what I have had to go through (losing friends, having few friends, heart break after heart break, loss of hope). I have felt so numb and so hopeless. I skipped church for awhile. I was mad at Him. I am still not where I should be in my relationship with Him, but it's getting better. I am just really trying to live in the moment and be HAPPY! I have actually found myself laughing hysterically on a couple of recent dates I went on. Laughter is so good and was so needed. The men...not so much.

The other day, I found out "the ex" was dating someone. STAB.IN.THE.HEART. I baked that day to keep my thoughts somewhere else and from breaking down. Then I heard this song, Chris Young-Tomorrow.
It's just perfect. Music and I have this connection. Songs help me get through certain times and trials in my life, that's the beauty of music. Music is a part of me.
"Baby when we're good, you know we're great..."

"We're like fire and gasoline
I'm no good for you, you're no good for me
We only bring each other tears and sorrow..."

I finally found closure. I can finally move on and I wish him happiness, I really do.
 
Back to cupcakes...I have been messin' around with how to ship my cupcakes. It's frustrating when you dont have the resources or money like the big wigs. I think I am going to ship them in jars...ya know, like cupcake in a jar. The jar will have two cupcakes in it. I am thinking of charging $5 plus the price to ship it out. It will be cheap because I am going to use a priority mail box from USPS. The cupcake will hold it's tastiness longer since it's in a jar. I am going to try and get the supplies this weekend to ship out next week! I will probably do a blog post about it on Monday, so if you are interested...stay tuned!
 
Have a lovely Thursday friends!
