Confessional Friday

Friday, March 7, 2014

Hello, everyone! I hope you all had a lovely week. Us over here in NWA were snowed in for the better half of the week but the sun is out and it is supposed to be in the 60's today so I am one happy gal. As usual, it's Friday and that means I'm linking up with Leslie at A Blonde Ambition so let's get started!

1. I confess that my life seems to have been an unorganized mess these past two months. Between all of the snow days, having to stay home with Carson when he gets sick, and getting sick myself I just can't seem to get into the routine that I desperately need to stay sane. I'm hoping March will be less chaotic and more calm!

2. I confess that I am trying not to buy makeup for all of March. I bought way too much in February and, honestly, I think I could go years without needing to buy another eyeshadow so it's probably time for a break!

3. I confess that I tried to make yet another video and I was not happy with it. I'm considering trying again today but without the right set up (lights, camera, etc.) it's hard for this perfectionist to be happy with the end result!

4. I confess that Carson may or may not have fallen in love with Cheetos. TJ went to the grocery store and brought some home and it didn't take long for Carson to discover that shiny bag full of delicious, empty carbs. Not my finest moment in parenting but I've learned that in parenting it is all about choosing your battles.

5. I confess that I am not good at getting things done if they are out of my routine. TJ's parents came down last Friday, got snowed in with us, and stayed till Monday. And let me tell you, those people get stuff done. They took care of all the things that needed to be done that I never have time to do, don't know how to do, or just plain forgot about. They hung up the curtains in Carson's room, cleaned our very unorganized guest room, cleaned out our refrigerator, hung up the mirror in the guest room that we've had for a year leaning against the wall not knowing what to do with, and put up our curtain holders in the living room. I couldn't be more thankful for all of their help and generosity! Did I mention they did all of this while I was still under the weather and Carson was horribly sick and only wanted to be held by his Nana and Papa? They are some productive people!

That is it for today, I hope you all have a lovely sunshine filled weekend! Talk to you soon!

  2. I look forward to your video. What lighting and camera do you use? I'm trying to step up my photo game ;)

    1. Oh I have the basic of all basic set up! I just tried to do it in front of a window for some good natural lighting. My first video I tried using Photobooth on my Macbook but when I uploaded it the audio was laggy, and then my second video I tried using a Sony cybershot but since I couldn't see what I looked like during filming it didn't turn out too well. I would LOVE a Canon Rebel T3i but I'm not ready to drop $500 on it!
