No Games This Time

I'm not going to pretend like I have forgotten about you again. 

I have not. 

In fact, every time I get on the computer, the little Blogger bookmark stares me in the face. It looks at me and says "come write!" 

But I don't know what to write about. I see that blinking cursor and I freeze up. Every intelligent thought goes out of my head, and I get anxious even thinking about trying to write. Nothing is good enough for this little blog of mine. 

I don't know what this blog is, or what it's meant to be. I originally wanted something to do all day when I was at home and out of work. I wanted to try and make a little extra money on the side, and make some new friends. 

Don't get me wrong, I have done these things.

But at the same time, so much has changed. 

I don't even look like my display picture here anymore. 

I don't even feel like y'all every got to know me. 

So in the dawn of a new age for this blog (and potentially a new name and layout), I'm going to let you get to know me.

Howdy, I'm Heather.

I have teal hair. For now.

I scream when I like things or people tell me things that they like that I also like. 

I work at Wegmans as a dishwasher.

I am a history major and yes, I will drag you to that boring historical place you don't want to go.

I am very random and my thoughts (and conversations) are all over the place.

I love my family.

I'm obsessed with: corgis, mason jars, iced tea, the color teal, pugs, tumbler cups, books, makeup, and stationary.

I forget things really easily.

I have a few favorite places: Ocean City, NJ; Washington, D.C.; Red Bank Battlefield Park; Philadelphia; and anywhere I can go with my boyfriend, Bill.

I love to write.

I love to make things with my hands.

I don't know what I want to be when I grow up.

I'm miserable at being an adult.

I buy too many books and spend too much time on the internet or at Target.

I turn into a giant mushball when I see any sort of dog, and they are all puppies to me.

I also enjoy taking pictures.

So there you have it. That's a look in to me. I hope to, in the coming weeks, redesign this blog and give it a new name. To breath new life into it. To not worry so much about what it is.

What you can expect next:

A little bit of everything...

Day trips.

History stuff.

Short story blips.

Makeup.

Everyday life? 

Who knows! It'll be a Pandora's box of a blog, I suppose.

Until next time, my friends...

College Life

*blows the dust off of the blog*
Well, hello all! It's been a while since I've actually had time to sit down and do a post. I had planned to do a post about depotting Bath and Body Works candles (or really, any candle, but these have the best jars), but of course, now that I want the candle to burn down a lot, it is burning so slowly! I still plan to do that post, I just have to wait until this candle gets to that point. In case anyone was wondering, the candle is "Apple Crumble." So good! I hit up BBW today to find the candle I wanted, Pumpkin Caramel Latte, but they were sold out, and only sell them online for now :(

Anyway, since I have made some college posts before, I thought I would give guys a little update on how that's going.

I won't lie, I'm a little over it.

{PREVIEW} The Humble Beginnings of a Homely (in a good way) Housewife

Howdy, y'all! Here's a preview of my post for Cattails & Cardigans!

If you were to take a poll today and ask how many people would want to be a house wife, you most likely wouldn’t get very many answers. Not many people dream of spending their days at home while their man is out all day working. I guess that’s what makes me an anomaly.

Currently, I’m only a housewife in the interim, while I try and find work.  But in the meantime, I’m living it up cooking and cleaning! And while that doesn’t sounds very fun, to me, it is. I’m weird. I love to do the dishes. I spend my days cleaning one room a day (more on that later), dancing around the house to Pandora radio, and working on my internet presence. I’ve found the only way to get things done online (as well as around the house) is to treat whatever you’re doing like a job.
