This weekend has been a whirlwind, namely because I’ve under the influence of a completely awful head cold. I went to the pharmacist and told the lady “please take my driver’s license number down, because I need the proper sudafed”. Then I found these babies..do you remember the Ludens cherry cough drops growing up? Man, …
Oh man…I daily get asked “how’s the wedding planning going?” “Ugh… I’d rather poke my eyes out with a dull pencil” I reply. Most people have NO idea how to circumvent my complete dislike of wedding planning…so they usually smile awkwardly and then say something polite and positive like “oh, but you’ll love it soon …
People…can I just tell you..that’s it’s cold in Australia. I’m not even kidding you…I woke up this morning and it was 39F/4C..and THAT’S COLD!!! In fact, yesterday I decided that I’d go running around 4:30pm..the sun was out..but it was a liar. It was freezing cold. I was rugged up with two layers and gloves …
There’s A LOT of backstory to how Andrew and I got engaged. When we went to American in September I drug him to my most favourite jewelers there and said to him that it would mean a lot to me if he could some how purchase and/or design a ring from them. He listened to …
Hi there, For some reason, about three years ago, I quit blogging at my successful blog. I think it all became too much and I needed a break. I thought that MishMarieG was gonna be THE blog that I’d stay at. Then I had a hair-brained idea to re-kindle my romance with EatingJourney. It feels … Continue reading
I know this is a long post..and I’m sorry. But it has just been weighing on my heart and mind all day. —— I’m not even sure how to write this post, because there are SO many angles, topics, thoughts on this topic. Woman, femininity, sex, careers, life. I didn’t even think of writing this … Continue reading
So..I haven’t exactly been Paleo this week…all the time. I mean how can you turn down an American Flag Cake? More so..I think it hit me this week..that I’m GETTING MARRIED! I don’t know what it is, but the idea of being a WIFE is much more profound and larger than being a girlfriend or … Continue reading
I really want a dog. Like, I’m serious about this. I ask Andrew every.single.day if I can get a dog. I go through the petrescue website at least once a day. I feel like this girl..but she got her dog. I’m still waiting. So, to appease my desire to get a dog..we got a chicken. … Continue reading
I’m going to blog..consistently throughout July. Why? Because it’s winter in Australia and it was freezing this morning..well not exactly freezing…come on people the low was 43F…I’m just getting soft. I have talked about how I don’t want to bet against myself, but I’ve decided to join this DietBet. Apparently I have a 35% chance … Continue reading
Today I needed a funk buster. I have these awesome cupcakes in the fridge and 10:45am my funk-monster was wanting to have more than it’s fair share. I whipped on my new attire (hello, I have seven year old sports bras) and hit the pavement. Sometimes you just need a bit of sun, fresh air, … Continue reading
I remember when I first watched Good Will Hunting I also remember how much my wallet cries when I buy almond butter at the shops. It’s about 10.00 a jar here in Australia. People, I spent 72.00 filling up my Ford Focus today. It’s expensive here (one of the only major downfalls of Australia). So … Continue reading
When I eat gluten I become a hot emotional bit–y mess. Ask Andrew. He’ll agree and then sneakily say “are you sure it’s just the gluten?” Cheeky bugger! Anyways, I have thought A LOT about what foods do to me and what foods keep me on the straight and narrow in life. Foods that keep … Continue reading
…Bible Passages: 2 Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters,[a] whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. 4 Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. 5 If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who … Continue reading
Andrew and I got back from the engagement party with a suitcase full of card, generous gifts and a book that I was dying to get into. I think that it’s easy, in any relationship, to get caught up in a self-ish angle. “Why isn’t he helping around the house?” “How many bloody times … Continue reading
