OMG- The Bachelorette- Part 2

Okay, there was more drama for your Momma in this episode then in the entire Bachelorette history, I swear! I think my blood pressure may have even went up because I was so nervous and sick to my stomach (yeah, I'm weird).

First a few quotes from Jillian's mouth:

"Maybe I'm just in La La Land." YES JILL, YOU ARE!

"It was all banana's" Yep, you keeping WES is BANANA's!!!!!

And Jillian your squealing is getting down right annoying! (my own quote)

The good things about tonight's episode:

The hometown dates were awesome (except for Wes's but I'm just not even counting him anymore!)

I loved all the families and that is rare for the hometown dates, usually you get some strange ones, but everyone seemed very cool and down to earth and NORMAL! Well, except for maybe Kyptin's Mom, but she wasn't too bad.

Jake came back to tell Jillian the dirt on Wes, which I actually thought was pretty commendable, even though she didn't listen. (again, Jill, you are going to kick yourself later) I would want someone to tell me, but it looks like you need to learn the hard way.

And the BEST thing that happened tonight.........

MY BOY ED CAME BACK!!!! ( I must say it helps that he shares the name of another fabulous boy- Edward Cullen) :)

The bad things about tonight's episode:

Jillian sent Michael home instead of WES!!!

Michael- you are so darn cute and funny and your family seemed fabulous! Some girl is really going to be so lucky to be with you! I wanted to cry right along with you tonight and the things you said about Jillian were so sweet. But don't you worry, you are going to have some fabulous girls knocking on your door. I guarantee it!

And the biggest downer of them all- WES is still around for at least one more episode. BARF! I don't even want to give him the time of day to write about him. I am just going to say that I hope his CD flops and that he never makes it in Nashville.

I did also feel bad that Jesse went home, but I knew he would most likely be packing his bags tonight so that wasn't a huge shocker.

Thank goodness Ed is back!!!!

And that is my two cents!

RIP Michael Jackson

Thriller was my very first album.

And I still rock out to Billie Jean!

It makes me sad that he seemed so unhappy in his own skin, but he sure was a very talented man. I hope that now he is in peace.

RIP Michael....

Extreme Makeover: Me Edition

It's that time again, EM:ME, if you want to join in, or read about other bloggers EM:ME posts, head over to Amber's blog at: aefilkins

This weeks questions is:

"Who is your biggest supporter/motivator in your weight loss? Do you have anyone around you that tries to sabotage you by "talking" you in to eating the not so good stuff?"

This question is easy for me, and the answer is:

ME!

I am my biggest supporter and also the one that likes to sabotage myself. Weird, but true. I know what to eat, how to exercise etc. but I also love food and not because I am trying to use it to cover something up in my past or anything like that. I just love the taste of food, I love getting together with friends and going out to eat, I love everything about it, and I also DO NOT have that thing in my brain that says, "hello, you're stuffed, quit eating." No I don't have that, so when I am stuffed I can still continue to eat until I practically need a stretcher to carry me out.

Luckily right now I am being my biggest supporter because I am sick of my sabotaging self (no, I do not have multiple personalities!) :)

Today is Day 7 of the Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred (I take weekends off) and also day 9 of getting up at 6 a.m. (and day 9 of the Love Dare.)

Surprisingly, it is getting easier to get up at 6:00 a.m. and even though I have been sick (which I blame on my new early rising ways) I do feel much better getting the most important things of my day done first thing in the morning (Bible study and exercising) plus I think my Husband likes me getting up at the same time as him and sending him off to work.

I think they say it takes 30 days or something like that to start a habit, so I have aboat (in my best Canadian, Jillian from the Bachelorette accent!) 20 more days to go until this is all a habit and second nature.

Wish me luck! ;)

OMG- The Bachelorette

Seriously, I have no words......

WHAT IS SHE THINKING?????

Don't get me wrong, I still like some of the guys that are there, but come on all ready.

WES- HAS GOT TO GO! If she doesn't send him home next week I swear to you that I will boycott this show and this will be my last blog on the Bachelorette. (I have said this before, but somehow I always get sucked back in.) I was horrified that no one pulled her aside to tell her everything about Wes, but was so happy to see Jake in the previews for next week, coming back to tell her. He is doing the right thing, and I'm sorry Jill, but you let the wrong one go home! Jake is a stellar guy and he is going to make one woman VERY HAPPY!

To me Jillian didn't seem really into anyone on last nights episode, I really think she was totally into Ed, and I am still keeping my fingers crossed that he may just come back. (wishful thinking, but a girl can hope!)

The one thing that Jillian did do right was send Tanner home, FINALLY!!! Sorry Tanner, but you really creaped me out with the whole foot fetish thing.

And can I just say that I am so looking forward to the reunion show. What is Wes going to do when they show a video montage of him stating on camera that he is only there for the air time to promote his music career. BARF! And his quote from last nights episode that he has Jillian wrapped around his finger. Pa leeeeeeaaaasssseee!

• Being on the Bachelorette: priceless
• Having 30 guys swoon after you for weeks: priceless
• Letting ABC foot the bill for fabulous dates and trips around the world, not just on one show, but two: priceless.
• Seeing Jillian's face when she watches Wes's video montage at the reunion show and hearing his Lame -o excuses as to why he said and did what he did: I'd pay $100 bucks!

Have a fabulous day! :)

Flip Flop Exchange

I have entered a Flip Flop Exchange over at The Texas Darlings and it sounds like so much fun. I can't wait! If you are interested go check out her blog asap because I believe you have until the Sunday June 21st to enter.

I was a little nervous about this. One because I am giving my name and address to a complete stranger (Sara at Domestically Challenged will totally be thinking about axe murderers right now, and I have to say that did cross my mind, so Sara I am leaving you in charge, if you don't see me around blog world, start investigating!)

And two, because I can only wear these type of flip flops (anything fabric, doesn't matter the brand).

And I can't wear these type of flip flops (rubber or plastic, doesn't matter the brand) because they give me TERRIBLE blisters. I wish this wasn't the case, because I think some are so gosh darn cute.

But I decided to take the chance anyway and see what happens. I think just the experience alone is going to be fun (as long as I am not killed by an axe murderer.) And I am excited to see who I am paired with and even more excited to go find cute flippity flops for them.

Now on to a totally DIFFERENT topic!

- I finished reading the book, 'My Sisters Keeper' last night and........ I. CRIED. LIKE. A. BIG. BABY. I finished reading the last few chapters at the dinner table where I was playing cards with my husband, my Mom and my Sister. Let's just say, they were like, "what is WRONG WITH YOU!" because I was crying so much. Now I knew this book was going to be sad. I cried over the stinkin movie trailer, but I was not expecting the book to be as sad as it was, I mean seriously, SO SAD!!!!! I highly suggest the book, and if you are not going to read the book, go see the movie (I haven't seen it yet, but I am assuming it will be really good, I think it comes out June 26th in theaters) and have an ENTIRE box of Kleenex handy!

Have a FABULOUS day!

Day 3

Today is day #3 of:

• Waking up at 6:00 a.m.
• Doing my Bible Study - Currently Day 3 of the Love Dare - from the movie Fireproof (won this from my blogging friend Tanya at Miller Racing Family!
• Doing the Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred.

I have learned three things:

• That I am still not a morning person. Even though I have been getting up at 6:00 a.m. I am tired all day. It is 10:20 a.m. and I could go to sleep right now. I am hoping this will get easier as each day passes.
• That I am LOVING the Love Dare, it is only day three but I am already seeing the benefits of it.
• That Jillian Michaels is KICKING MY BUTT! I am so out of shape. The 30 day shred is only 20 mins. but I am sweating so bad when I am done and I am so sore that I can barely pick up my water glass (my fabulous Starbucks tumbler) because my arms are so sore, and when I am sitting and go to stand up, I can barely get up because my legs are so sore and this also goes for sitting back down. (this makes it very difficult to go to the bathroom every 15 mins. because I am drinking so much water these days) whew! I am thinking I am going to make the 30 day shred into a 3 month shred and do each level for 1 month because I am only on level 1 and I can't see myself going to level 2 anytime soon, let alone level 3. LOL.

Bachelorette Recap- Goodbye Ed (for now!)

So DISH TV FINALLY got channel 2 back (abc) (for like a year we were without and I was watching the Bachelorette online as soon as they posted it) and I thought my DVR was set up to record, but it didn't and I got home at 9:30 p.m. so I caught the last half hour. The part where ED has to tell her he is leaving.

:( :( :( :(
(that is me crying A LOT!)

I knew it was going to happen because I am way to obsessed with the message boards. Pretty much if you want to find out what is going to happen you can read them and know what the future is going to hold for Jillian. But as predicted (even though I was secretly hoping they were wrong) Ed left. But I am keeping my fingers crossed that it won't be the last we see of him. I totally understand why he left, I wouldn't want to lose my job either, especially in today's economy, but I am sad for Jill.

I didn't see the beginning of the show (I'll watch tomorrow online, and read all of my blogging buddies posts to see what I missed) but I think most of it will be how it has been week after week.

I still can't stand WES, and next week I am going to dislike him even more. I think if I were Jillian, I would have made it part of my contract with ABC that they had to tell me if any of the guys were there for the wrong reasons. Also, Jillian is going to hate herself when she watches the playbacks of the show, Wes is making her look like a fool.

WORDS OF WISDOM TO FUTURE BACHELORETTES:
if one of the guys is an actor or singer, they are NOT there for YOU. Haven't we already seen this in previous seasons? You'd think they would learn.

Okay, I'll stop rambling. Until next week! ;)
