Girl with the Pink Toolbelt

So in all the craziness that is Super Bowl- my pretty Girl with the Pink Toolbelt blog turned one year old!!! How awesome is that?!?!

So.  Yes.  The Patriots lost.  Ugh.  Major disappointment.  And I didn't get to molest my future baby daddy Rob Gronkowski.  Even bigger disappointment.  But there were tons of other fabulous things happening the last 3 weeks that kinda sorta not really  made up for it. As you all have probably heard me talk about- there were serious problems with Super Bowl last year in Dallas.  Well this year I was going to make it my mission to not have one issue with seating and tickets.  I literally walked every day for almost 2 and 1/2 weeks every single seat, row, and section in my stadium.  My body is STILL recovering from all of the climbing and walking.  I checked them , rechecked them, kicked a bunch of fuckers out of them and then rechecked them again.  And then I left the building for 11 days. I headed over to the convention center to run the NFL Experience.  I have experience working that event since I've previously ...

So after all of the great food and visiting with my family and having THREE Christmas dinners I was able to spend some time with some fantastic ladies!  I love being able to come home and pick up with friends that you haven't seen since the last Christmas trip and it be just like you saw them last week. I headed to lunch with someone that I've been friends with literally since kindergarten.  We had a great lunch and gabbed and told stories from the past year and made each other laugh just a teenie tiny bit while we were at it.  She is seriously like the energizer bunny- always on the go.  She exhausts me sometimes just hearing about everything that she does on a daily basis.  And I'm just sitting on the couch most of the time.  Although typing hilarious blogs is seriously exhausting in it's own way too I guess.  We lost touch a while back and I missed out on some huge life experiences she had and I'll probably regret that for a long time not being t...

I can’t believe that it’s been 25 days since I’ve last posted!! I’ve been crazy busy and out of town and just enjoying some time off with family and friends. Hope you all had a wonderful holiday and New Year! Didya get hammered?? I left Indy on Dec 22 nd and drove overnight to Connecticut with my dear friend Lauren and her cat that I like to call STOPCLAWINGMYLEGSYOUFUCKER  Kitty. I had a Colts game that night so we assumed that we’d be leaving around 10pm. My boss all along had said that she was planning on letting me out early- which to me meant that I’d leave at the beginning of halftime instead of the beginning of the third quarter. At about 11am, she asked if I finished checking the seats out in the stadium yet (because yes-I have to check all of the seats for every event here- FUN!) and I thought to myself, “Self, why the hell would I check them so early? The game’s not until 8pm.” So I told her that I was planning on doing that in the afternoon. So she’s lik...

I mentioned in the last post that I went shopping with Miss Wendy and picked out my birthday gift from my mamacita.  Man, do I love me some gift cards.  They are seriously the best gift anyone can get. HINT HINT- it's getting to be gift giving time. I've actually been pricing these out at Lowe's and HD and they've been ridiculously expensive.  And I'm sure that this isn't top of the line by any means.  But I still wanted it. Plus its also the same brand as the fixtures already installed. So here goes.  Lame ass shower before shot: Don't mind the soap scum.  God I hate that shower.  It's so small.  Like I literally turn around and smack into a wall.  And that tile?  Ew.  Hate it.  When I finally have some decent money to spend, the bathroom is getting stripped of the cheapest tile in the world and getting a major upgrade.  But the thing that I'm referring to when I say "LAME" is the shower head.  The nozzle do...

Well this one came out a little bit more successful than the last one   seen here but I wouldn't say that I'm in luuuuuuuurv with it. I got home from a LONG ass work week this afternoon and called up Miss Wendy to be my shopping buddy.  I stopped first at Goodwill in search of a XXL men's cable knit sweater which they had ONE and I snatched that bitch up before the smelly lady next to me could!  It cost all of $4.59- breaking the bank here people.  Although I did feel bad that some Blob of a man might be shivering with his cold man boobs this winter because I took the one and only and planned on cutting it to pieces.  I then went over to Wendy's house to pick her up.  We headed over to Michael's and Bed Bath and Beyond where I had an idea in mind for my newest Christmas wreath.  I found some supplies all at 50% off (thank you Michael and your wonderful store full of crafty things).

Today was my first day sleeping in in what feels like for-EVA.  For- eva-eva.  Ahhhh it was so nice to not roll over until after 11:30am.  I know all you guys with kids and pets say that your life is soooooooo fulfilled with said kids and pets and how can I not want/have them?  Well, I'll tell you what.  When is the last time YOU got to sleep in until 11:30am?  That's what I thought.  Remember that next time you ask me when I'm going to get me some brats. So when I FINALLY dragged my ass out of bed and went downstairs I got a little itch for being crafty.  I had been cutting out pics from magazine and seeing different pictures on Pinterest lately of Christmas ball wreaths.  I really only have one wreath so far and it's got more of a fall vibe going on.  This is what I made last year. Ooooh sooooo pretty.   As I was walking through the aisles the other day and the Xmas ornaments were ALREADY out (UGH) it got me to thinking. So...
