Adventures with GuyJack and down sizing

Guess what I did this weekend? I traveled. A lot. 

Wednesday I went to Oklahoma City with my mother for her annual conference, but I mainly went to take care of my nephews. Oscar is a total teenager now:( He is questioning everything and mouthy as all get out, but I love him anyway. GuyJack sure did love him some Carly! He was really sweet this past weekend. 3-year-olds are pretty darling.

This was Wednesday's, July 31, 2013 outfit. I have to brag a little bit on this. The dress that I am wearing was purchased when I was a sophomore... in HIGH SCHOOL! Most of you know, I have struggled with my weight my whole life and I have now taken some steps to get that under control. Also, this was the best hair day I have had in months and I decided to cut my hair this past weekend. I might be regretting it now:(

                                   

GuyJack was my lunch date Thursday and Friday. The food and conversation were both delightful.

Getting Fuzzed Up at Fuzzy's in Bricktown.

Best part about the hotel for GJ... THE POOL! Isn't he adorable with the towel around his waist?!?

Saturday, Manfriend and I took GJ to the Oklahoma Aquarium. Not sure who was more excited, Chance or GJ. We had a great time and GJ was very brave touching the different fish.

Sometimes my family doesn't think things through. Saturday night my mom met my brother and the rest of his family to watch the Monkees in concert. GJ was left with Chance and I. Needless to say, GJ basically got three milkshakes to get him happy. Manfriend was a champ.

This is a result of three milkshakes and being very sleepy: Carly with a baby.... in a coffee shop/bar at 10 pm. My aunt KK and my mom wanted to show my bother this coffee show (which was really cool) and we met them there after the concert. GJ was beyond exhausted.

Sunday morning, Chance and I went and got breakfast at Brookside By Day and might or might not have shared a pitcher of mimosas. After that we went shopping and spent the day looking for the best deals for tax free weekend. I needed tops, but all I got were pants. Story of my life.

I have been wearing an insane amount of blue lately. Check out those pants! and my new bangs:)

And this is today's, August 6, 2013, outfit. The dress is from Gap and the shoes are Sperry wedges. I do rock a lot of polka dots. BUT! The best part about this outfit is the size of the dress:)

Labor Day Weekend and My Gay Ex-Boyfriend

Well dahlings, a new week is upon us and I am still physical and mentally recovering from my loooooong weekend.

I had every good intention of posting my blog on Thursday, but in true cluster fuck fashion, that didn’t happen. Meetings, students, registrations, obligations, e-mails, and phone calls consumed my short day in the office. So today, much like the rest of the world on the Tuesday after Labor Day, I am playing catch up at work and on my blog. Here is just a snippet of the weekend.

Thursday, August 30

 

 

 

Ryan

I had to sport my NSU green as I was going to be traveling to Tahlequah for the first home football game. My former boss and I met up to enjoy tailgating and catching up on our lives. She is possibly one of the greatest women I have ever met and she was willing to claim me as her daughter to sneak me into the alumni room. (I was then told to get out my check book and join the alumni association by the Alumni Director but that was all in good fun.It was worth it for the air conditioning.) During half-time, I met up with my dear friend and ex-boyfriend, Ryan. Now, some might think our relationship is odd to be so close for having been in a "serious" relationship for close to two years; however, there were certain things I could not offer him... like a penis. Love him dearly and I think of him as one of my true and dear friends.

No pictures were taken because of extreme cases of confusing the Apple Genius and travel (safty first). I can tell you my outfit consisted of an over-sized T-shirt, norts and flops with a narly messy dirty bun. It is probably a good thing pictures were not taken. I got my haircut and then met up with manfriend and enjoyed dinner with some fabulous people.

MUTHA EFFIN' GAMEDAY!!!

 

Tyler, Carly, Chance(manfriend), Justin
This really happened.

 

 Holy Mother of Stillwater. Catching up with old friends, drinking, eating, sweating, and cheering on the Oklahoma State Cowboys.
In the land "where the wind comes sweeping down the plains," there was little to no wind during the day. That means it was hot.
 

 This was my koozie for the day----------->
Notice the boby pins on the bottom. I am always prepared.






Below is our view of the game.

Sunday, August 2

Waking up from a hard day of tailgating is rough. Lunch with friends and then a trip to Oklahoma City to do a little shopping and seeing my brother and his family was my Sunday afternoon. The manfriend is always up for an adventure.

Monday, August 3

Total cluster. Between my car and buying paint, I was an emotional mess. Plus, leaving the manfriend is always torture. Made it home just to crawl into bed. Slept like a baby and I mean, waking up every two hours. Horrible.

Tuesday, August 4-------------------------------------------------->
Busy. Wearing Lilly.
Happy Note! My Lilly Pulitzer shipment should be waiting for me at home and volleyball is about to start back up. That means a lot of trash talk and sand in unwanted places.



Moving update. Paint colors were picked out by the manfriend and myself. Painting should start tomorrow and moving on Friday evening or Saturday morning. The sooner, the better.
