rambles of a sicko.

I have been sick, sinus infection, flu blah.

So my super duper fun Beach Bocce Ball Bistro Saturday I had planed was canceled or put off.

instead I have been a bum,
moping around,
being best friends with my mac book,
surfing the web for jobs oh
and watching a lot of netflix. to be specific.

Grey's Anatomy Season 5


I watched Grey's back in the good old days of 112 in college, but only up to season 4.
Even so several years later I still enjoyed season five.

It reminded my of another time in college when for a half of a day I decided I should be a doctor. ( I occasionally get slightly ahead of my self and forget about details). A few hours later when I started think about more of those details I decided maybe a nurse. Then it all ended when I got a paper cut and nearly passed out from not even full drop of blood.

Am I the only on that thinks like this? Example 2. I go on a lot of " I want to run a marathon" kicks. ( i hate running). Then after running my first mile in weeks I think, okay maybe a 1/2. Then two days later I am done with my running phase for awhile. Maybe the solution to this little problem of over thinking of mine is baby steps. That is why I am happy to announce that I have signed up to run  in the Beach to Bay Relay this May. It will be Ryan, me and two other couples each running 4 to 5 mile legs (i can totally do this). This is the first race I have ever done (besides high school track) so any tips will be appreciated!

ramble over.

these are a few of my favorite things

...in my bathroom. I have recently noticed the ratio of Whittney to Ryan things in the bathroom is a bit well ridiculous. Yes, I am a girl so I require a bit more but I think I just like cosmetics way too much.


my top 6 cant live without must have in stock at all times.

$2 miracle in a bottle. i use it when i don't feel like doing my hair or as needed.
when i use this i SWEAR my hair grows faster and healthier. it smells heavenly
this is a must have on all beach trips, swimming adventures and vacations.

hands down best chap stick ever.
all scents make you want to lick your lips all day long.
i could only ever find it a store called Habitat in Driggs/Victor ID
so image how happy i was to discover they carry it at the local Sun Harvest Market here.

for a girl that breaks out more in her 20's than her teens this is my number 1
its a preclease you wash your face with before your facewash
my dermatologist recommended it and my face has never felt so clean.

NARS blush color:orgasm (no i did not chose it for the name). this is a new love.
after the first use i can't believe I went my whole like with out it
sooo pretty.



i love color, in eyeshadow, lip stick and nail polish
i love having my my nails painted, current favorite
O.P.I ate berries in the canaries

the first Paul Mitchell's Thicken Up a must have for Idaho/ dry weather it thickens my thin hair.
the second Paul Mitchell's Super Skinny Serum must have in Texas/humid weather to control my fizz.

i LOVE love

I  love love. I love being in love. And I love celebrating love! Even the 20 years of being single on v-day before I met Ryan, I always have loved it! Valentines Day is another excuse to celebrate and I am ALWAYS looking for reasons to celebrate! Like Ryan's promotion this Thursday... celebrate! Me putting in my two weeks notice to carinos... CELEBRATE!!!


Valentines Day (well Sunday when we celebrated v-day) was perfect! Ryan had been out of town all weekend on a hunting trip so I had lots of time to my self to prep. I made Ryan's favorite roast, potatoes and corn (best sunday dinner ever) and my favorite asparagus and chocolate covered strawberry's mmmm. I went a little construction paper crazy and cut out tons of red and white hearts and used thread to string them down from the ceiling all around the dinning room table. Ryan's letter was also construction paper lots of shapes and sizes of colorful paper and stuck to my big magnet board. I had way to much fun making it. I got Ryan candy (and then ate it all opps) and Call of Duty Black Ops. If thats not love then I don't know what is! I just had it sitting on the table I was too lazy to wrap it but it took him sooo long to ever see it, then finally WHAT?!? Black Ops? hehe it was funny. Ryan got me well actually us tickets to go see CIRQUE DU SOLEIL: ALEGRIA that is going to be in Corpus this weekend. Whao I am so excited! I especially liked this gift because it extends the celebrating into this weekend! Ryan also wrote me the sweetest letter ever, he is so good at that. And my sweet parentals give me a adorable necklace and Ryan a giftcard, I love them and hate not being able to call them all the time right now. Actual v-day love was substituted for angry/ mean people, ya I worked. I can't believe how extra angry people were on such a happy day. Anyways pictures.





I hope you all had a LOVEly Valentines day!
