The Last Target Tuesday


I'm linking up with Tara for her LAST Target Tuesday! I'm kind of sad by this as it was my first blog link up when I started writing!

This week I'm featuring puppy items in honor of our pup, Sir Licks a Lot. He was attacked by the same pit that bit him in the ear 2 1/2 months ago, this time in the back side. More on that later this week.

(because he's terrified of going outside right now!)

Target Tuesday


It's that time again to link up with Tara for Target Tuesday.

This week is all wedding items! I figure when Mac & I do get married, I want to elope. There can be video & pictures for everyone to share but a) I don't want to be the center of attention b) my mom & step mom cannot get along c) it's cheaper!  So here is my elopement wedding via Target LOL
Ps the elopement would be either at a local bed & breakfast or at the Atlantic City lighthouse

My Dress

My shoes

My jewelry. Simple

My Bff's dress
Her shoes (same as mine but in silver)

I like how everything is similar but not matchy matchy!

If you're not married, would you elope?
If you are married, do you ever wish you would of eloped? 
Please share!

Anniversary ideas

So in a little over 2 months, Mac & I will be celebrating our 7th anniversary! We want to do something nice, but not too expensive because we're 2 broke people in love LOL.  Here are my ideas for some local getaways

Going to the Chimney Hill Inn for a night.  I've had my eye on this place FOREVER.  I actually want to get married there one day.  They have intimate ceremony packages which is what I want, and it's in our price range. Or maybe we'll just elope! As long as there's pictures, I don't think anyone would even mind. It'll save us from all the drama! They even have Alpacas on the land!


A NYC dinner cruise. This is also something I've wanted to do for a while now. Plus gives me an excuse to go shopping for a dress!

Recreate our 1st date which includes a movie, sandwiches from QuickChek, and a walk in NJ overlooking the NYC skyline (we've recreated this several times, but I never get tired of it!)

Dolphin watching in Atlantic City! Plus it's in Atlantic City & what's not to love about that!

Which one would you chose?

Look I'm writing!!

I'm being summoned by my friend Nikki to write a blog so here I am! I really have no clue what to write about. This may be a random post, but it's better than no post at all right?


I think I'm going to write a list on what bothers me...sound good? Good...




  • Public Transit.  1st...why are there stops on the middle of the highway? Need an example? Here is my stop on my way home from work






X marks the spot where I stand. And I need to CROSS the road first in order to make it there. It's an accident waiting to happen! Luckily I only go there in daylight.
The next public transit thing that bothers me is their timing.  95% of the time they're late. Yesterday (or today as I'm writing this) I had to wait 10 minutes later for one bus & 15 for the other. Bus 1 was late so naturally I missed bus 2 & had to wait an hour! NJ transit better get it together! I know there's traffic & what not, but space your buses out better. Moving on...


The next thing that bothers me is how people are complaining on what Jessica Simpson named her baby. WHO CARES? Is Maxwell Drew odd for a girl? Yes, but once I read how it incorporates family members I thought it was nice.Plus they'll probably never call the baby by the full name anyway.I don't know why it bother people.   What about Apple or Frank Zappa's kids named  Moon Unit and Diva Thin Muffin. I think Maxwell Drew is just fine...If it doesn't affect you, leave the poor woman alone. Let her enjoy her new baby without the criticism. She's getting enough criticism about her weight.



No overtime at my job right now. When I started I worked between 10 & 15 hours of OT a week (if not more. Once I put in 65 hrs!)..LOVED it..and now that I need it, nothing. In fact, if they can they'll throw you out an hour or two early a week. Hoping it picks up soon before I need a new job!

So those are a few things that bother me....what about you, what bothers?






So everyone go & thank Nikki for making me write and follow her while you're there. She was my first blogger friend that I cannot wait to meet one of these days soon (hint hint)
