Love my TOYS!

So I finally got my Keurig Coffee Maker and I must say it is one of the best things ever created- for ME! I only like to drink flavored coffee and for the most part- ICED!. Nobody else in the house drinks flavored coffee. Nobody else likes to drink iced coffee either. My parents drink Decaf, so making coffee in the morning was pretty chaotic. Okay. Okay. It wasn’t that chaotic. It was just not that satisfying for me. Therefore, I rarely had a cup of coffee at home. I usually waited until we stepped out of the house and bought it somewhere. So enter my new Keurig obsession and we have solved everything. Everyone is happy with their coffee needs everyday and WE HAVE NOT bought a cup of coffee from anywhere since our purchase. It has pretty much paid for itself overnight. I ordered a whole bunch of different flavors for myself. Extra Bold for the hubby. Decaf for my parents. Tea for everyone. The best part is that everything is single serving. No coffee in the pot wasted. Everyone makes a cup of their liking. I have a different flavor every single day. I even have it twice a day sometimes. I can also have my lemon tea before I go to bed. It has also saved Dex and I money and time. We had to stop by McD’s or Dunkin D’s every morning to get our coffees before going to work. Now, we brew and go to work. Oh the simple pleasures in life that I do so love.

Another thing I have grown to love is my new MAC, and I am not talking about make-up. Although my eyes feel beaten up by the big 27 inch beauty that I am staring at, it is one of the best things ever created. I love it! I have a lot of pictures, and I must say that I may just have to say goodbye to my FLiCKR account. My new Mac functions just like it, if not better. I still have a lot of learning to do, but so far so good. I was a bit hesitant to get one before, but after countless visits to the Apple store, I was convinced that I had to get that “cool looking” thing not knowing anything about it. I have Jasmyne to thank for it for always wanting to go to that darn Apple store at Woodfield. Now,  I find myself excited to go home to get to know my Macky better each day. I am excited to go home to have a cup of lemon tea. HAHAHA. Okay. I think this means I need to stop blogging about my loser life. Have a good night everyone! I leave you a picture of my new baby and some of the goodies.


Happy New Year

My first post in a new decade… as I start off my new decade as well. My New Year was pretty rough. Tito Tom and family were over for the holidays, so we were pretty tired from sleeping in late almost every night. We also had to work the NYE/NYD holiday so we were pretty tired in general. Yesterday, we had a get together with Dexter’s cousins, which is turning out to be an annual thing. We didn’t plan it that way, but it is. We had lunch at Cheesecake Factory and hung out at Woodfield with Dar and Vida. To my great surprise, I lost weight during the holidays. I stepped off the scale and stepped back on three times just to make sure- and sure enough, it wasn’t lying to me. I don’t really have any resolutions this year. I’m just gonna do the dew- know what I mean jelly bean? If they happen, they happen and if they don’t then they don’t.

I have so many pictures I have to organize from the past two months. I have yet to build an album of any sort. I have loads and loads of pictures just hanging out in our computer. I need to make something out of all of ‘em. Dex got me my iMAC 27 inch for the holidays. I didn’t know whether I was going to keep it, despite my previous post on not returning any of his gifts. I just wish he’d one day give me a “normal” gift that I didn’t have to think about keeping. I DID decide to keep it though. We’ve always wanted our personal computer in our bedroom, so I am very excited to open it. YES! I haven’t opened it yet. I just decided today that I would keep it. I will let you all know how it goes! At least it may be the one thing I’m looking for to keep my photos and videos organized because iPHOTO is directly connected with FLiCKR. Yipppppie!!!!

Anyway, just stopping on by to wish everyone a happy new year! May it be everything you all wanted- and more.
