"It's OK" Thursday 2

I'm linking up with Amber and Neely again today!

It's OK to write my "It's OK" Thursday post on Wednesday night and just change the post options to actually post it on Thursday. I'm just planning in advance!


It's OK to check the Apple website EVERY DAY just incase they released the launch date for the iphone 5. Yeah...I'll admit...I'm obsessed.


It's OK to look up Louis Vuitton bags online for hours just to see which one you would buy if you could ever afford one. P.S. This is the one I would buy! The Speedy!

It's OK to have a little bit of pure hatred towards your mother for donating your REAL Louis Vuitton bag your great aunt got you when you were little because your mother didn't even know what Louis Vuitton was. (Yeah, not sure I can ever really forgive and forget that.)


It's OK to blare the radio and sing at the top of my lungs when the local radio station plays an 'N Sync song. 


It's OK to post a super short blog post because Big Brother just started and that is way more interesting than anything I have to say right now! :)

Loving Life

Right now I am loving life. I am finally feeling comfortable with my new job, getting more motivation to try new things, and just enjoying the time I get to spend with my husband and my puppy.

I had yesterday off so I decided to really enjoy the day. The first thing I did was I decided to take donuts to my husband and his employee's at work.

Daylight donuts are my favorite so I was happy to pick up a chocolate long john for myself when I got theirs. For those that do not know me ...Hello, my name is MaryBeth and I am a chocolate addict. Haha Roxy went with me and she was just as happy to accept the doggy treat they gave her. I have to admit I love places that give out doggy treats to my furbaby!

After that Roxy and I went shopping at PetsMart, Hobby Lobby, Payless Shoes, Sally Beauty Supply, and Shoe Carnival. I have decided that I want to do this fun craft on my next day off so I had to run by Hobby Lobby to look at supplies. If you haven't seen this on Pinterest this is the craft I want to do that I originally saw on the Miss Mommy blog.

The idea is to buy cheap frames and scrapbook paper. I want make it to fill the huge empty space above our headboard in our bedroom. My only frustration is that our bedroom furniture is black so I feel like the frames should be black and therefore the scrapbook paper will have to go well with the black frames. My next day off is Saturday so I'm hoping to find some cute scrapbook paper then so I can get started. I'll post a picture when I finish.

When we went to Sally Beauty Supply I picked up a few hair products and I have already fallen in love with one of them. It's a volume powder and it is amazing. My hair is crazy flat...like literally NO VOLUME! haha If you have this problem I highly suggest you try out Beyond the Zone.

It has been a great addition to my morning hair routine. The rest of the day was spent cleaning and doing chores around the apartment. Which was greatly needed and not a bad way to spend a relaxing day off. At the end of the night I was ready to go to bed and get to work today. The best part about today just started on TV though... season finale of Big Brother...So excited!

EXTRA NOTE!

Tuesday 10 - Things I Love

I'm linking up with Nicole again for the Tuesday 10. If you want to link up you can read her blog at Miss Mommy.

10 Things I Love

1. My Husband

My husband, Kevin, is definitely the number one thing I love! 

2. My Friends 

My friends are some of the most important people in my life! I have had some since freshman year of high school and others I made in college or this last year. It doesn't matter how long I have known them though. They will always be people I love! 

3. My Puppy

4.  Ted's Cafe Escondido 

This is my favorite restaurant of all time! If eating it every day wouldn't make me fat...I would eat it every day!! If you live in Oklahoma and have never been you need to!

5. Braum's Chocolate Ice Cream

6. Getting a mani- pedi

7. Being a Graduate of Oklahoma State University

Go Cowboys!

8. My New Kitchen Table

I know this sounds stupid to many of you but I have not had a real kitchen table since I lived with my parents. Kevin and I were going crazy not having one...well I was going crazy! haha

9. Going to the Movies

10. Shopping!

Our Make-up Weekend

With Kevin and me both having jobs that require us to work over the weekends we don't really get to have the normal two days off. It isn't terrible because we still usually get two days off just not always Saturday and Sunday. And we don't always get the same days off. I'm so excited though because tomorrow we both have off and I can't wait to spend the day together. When we first moved here we got two free tickets to the Zoo so I think we are going to go tomorrow. Today the weather was so nice, I just hope it is as cool tomorrow! 

Kevin and I love going to the Zoo. I know it is kinda cheesy but it is fun to just spend a couple of hours just the two of us. I'm really excited for tomorrow too because we have not been to the Tulsa Zoo before.  This is a picture of Kevin and me at the Oklahoma City Zoo on our honeymoon.

Our wedding was Friday night and our plane to Punta Cana didn't leave until Sunday morning so we spent our first day as husband and wife at the Zoo. I am excited to go tomorrow to the Tulsa Zoo for the first time and to spend the day with my best friend. I have been trying to get Kevin to go to the Aquarium too but I think that will have to wait for another day. 

ABC's of Me

"It's OK" Thursday

Today I am linking up with Amber and Neely. 

It's OK to trip and spill chocolate milk all over the kitchen walls and floors. 

It's OK to spew chocolate milk out your nose while running to the kitchen sink when your husband says something funny RIGHT AFTER you just mopped and scrubbed the floors and walls in the kitchen from the last chocolate milk incident. (Yes, this happened to me last night)

It's OK to spend 8 hours on Netflix in one day watching your favorite new TV series. (What can I say...It's addictive! lol)

It's OK to eat only ice cream for dinner. (My family always did this at least one night on our family vacations. We LOVE our ice cream!)

It's OK to buy a cute new jacket when it won't be cool enough to wear it for another month.

It's OK to have a beautiful bedspread and pillows yet only see them once a month because that's how often you make your bed. 

It's OK to have a Netflix movie sit next to your TV for over a month without opening it. (That's what we pay $10 a month for right...no late fee's!)

It's OK to treat yourself by buying a candy bar at the register after you just spent an hour walking the crazy busy isles at Walmart.

This was a fun post! Link up and tell us why it's an OK Tuesday for you.
