Confessions of a blogger…

My Life

FacebookTweetPin
6 Jul
confession blog post (800x800)

Confession… Whenever I cook I bring out a lot of random food to snack on while I’m ‘cooking’. I use the term ‘cooking’ loosely though – because I do this when I’m making PB toast or just throwing together a salad. It’s a bad habit.

Confession… I just shove things out of the way to make room to eat. It works.

Confession… I recently had my condo painted because it really needed it. But now I’m thinking about moving so I don’t want to put anything up on the walls. It’s kinda bugging me since now I feel like I’m unsettled. It’s weighing on my mind all the time and I just want to figure it out so I can make wherever feel like home.

confession blog 1 (442x589)

Confession… I got distracted by email this morning and didn’t run until after 8am. It’s too hot to get into that habit Monican!

confession blog 2 (442x589)

Confession… this chocolate fell out of the freezer when I was refilling the ice tray last night so I ate it. I’m glad it wasn’t a bag of frozen veggies…

Okay, 2 fell out. And I grabbed a 3rd for fun.

Confession… Running is cheaper than therapy, but I need both. (This is the view from my therapist’s office that’s changing next week so I had to get one last picture.)

confession blog 12 (785x589)

Confession… The super awesome thick cranberry bread that I had been eyeing for a year was on manager’s special and I finally bought it a few days ago. One slice is as thick as 3 slices of ‘normal’ bread. The confession part of this is – I was expecting it to be sweet like a cinnamon roll or something and it wasn’t – so I put maple syrup on it. I should have just made french toast with it.

Confession…It’s not okay for Vegas to lay on my clean clothes but I had to get a picture of him before kicking him outta there.

Confession… I haven’t been going to church every weekend recently but have discovered the Bible App on my phone has a lot of bible studies and programs.

But I went this weekend and kinda love the picture on the front of the bulletin…. it’s a track and says ‘Get Going’. Boom.

Confession… These Whole Cuts ‘chips’ are cut like a french fry so they’re supposed to be like fries but with the crunch of a chip.

My favorite french fries are the crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside but not burnt ones… so I was curious about these and bought ‘em. Well, I love them. I dipped them in ketchup and they were like having fries. They’re not healthier than french fries – they’re still fried potatoes, but they are good.

Confession… this is what it looked like when I got up from the couch last night. I was eating popcorn. Busted!

confession blog 9 (785x589)

Confession… I take pictures of toilets. (Not every time, but it’s still a little weird to have pictures of toilets on your phone, right?) In my defense, this toilet was at a random foot massage place and had a bunny on it that I thought was kinda funny.

Question: What do you have to confess?

    Hello,
    I do the same putting food out and eating it while I’m making the real meal. By the time I’m done, I’m usually not hungry.
    Thanks

    Confession: I am currently in Switzerland where I bought a bag of chocolate to take home to my team at work. I already cracked it open and ate all of the dark and white chocolate ones. So all they’ll get are the milk chocolate ones. I don’t even feel bad about it; it was so good!

    Confession – I go through the whole bag of Boom Chicka Pop sea salt popcorn in two days. So basically I eat half the bag in one sitting. Is that bad?

    I have no plans to move, ever, but i have a fear of putting holes in walls. Check out all the Command Strip options for hanging pictures – they are endless! I use them all the time!!!! And so far nothing has fallen off the wall…..

    I love this post! So much fun to read. Speaking of toilets, we were away last weekend and my husband came out of a restaurant bathroom and said “If you were ever gonna take a picture of a urinal, that’s one that should be photographed.” lol! I guess it was somehow a keg or in the shape of a keg. I really wanted to go in and photograph it but they wouldn’t let me and they wouldn’t do it for me! lol!

    In the middle of the night my peanut butter jar calls me, and I always answer.

    My cat also likes laying on my “basket” clothes. I put a towel on top so she doesn’t get hair all over everything I wear. There’s no way to keep her out of the basket, so I make it so she still has a cozy spot….

    Confessions…I love to eat Nestle Quick with a little bit of milk stirred in so it’s like a chocolate paste. It’s like candy and I love it. I also love a tablespoon of peanut butter with chocolate sauce drizzled over it. It’s like a home made Reese’s treat.

    Not a confession, but an idea for you – once your paint has cured (like a week max? IDK, I’m not a pro) you can use Command hangers to put up your wall decor and remove it without hurting your walls afterward.

      Thank you! I actually bought a bunch of them but have been too scared to use them, but I really need to.

    I re-used a plate from breakfast for my lunch…..but said plate had been licked clean after breakfast by my dog and I sorta forgot but sorta remembered and just used it anyway. So now I might get kennel cough or some other doggie cooties i suppose 🙂

      Haha I’ve done things like that. Forget my cat may have touched a utensil until said utensil has wound up in my mouth… I tell ya, pet people are going to contract something inexplicable one day.
