Snow on the coast

What's good with all this snow in the south? The Hampton Roads area had 7 inches of snow last night. It's not supposed to snow here! I left PA to get away from the snow and it seems to have followed me. 

Of course VA Beach has yet to plow anything other than the major roads. It's sad that this area doesn't know how to prepare for inclement weather. We have a limited amount of snow plows which makes it very difficult to go anywhere because the roads are covered with snow.

Since I'm from the Poconos where it snows all the time, I will share some of my top tips for dealing with the snow

Rule #1: Start plowing and salting the roads as soon as the snow begins to stick. Duh!

Rule #2: Do not go out unless it is an emergency. And if you do decide to drive, put your car in a lower gear. The brakes are nonexistent when there's snow and ice on the roads.

Rule #3: Dress in layers, below freezing temperatures are not good for your skin!

Smoothie Fail

My boyfriend wants us to start this "juicing" diet for 10 days. After watching the documentary, "Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead," I decided that I was down. So in order to prepare myself, I decided to start a smoothie diet. It is not in my budget to buy Tropical Smoothie everyday so I figured I would research how to make my own.

After buying some fruits from Walmart, I attempted to make a smoothie. I put milk, strawberries, limes, and ice in a blender. Not only was my smoothie disgusting, but it was also pretty watery. Apparently, you're supposed to put juice in it  to add sweetness? Fail.

TGIF

So it's Friday night and what am I doing? Sitting at home on my laptop listening to "R&B Love Songs" on Jango Radio. Why, may you ask? Because I'm actually off for once but my man had to go home this weekend. So here I am stuck at home with NO plans. I'm not mad, I understand that family comes first. I just thought that I would be able to see him today. It's been a few days. So pardon me for being a little upset. He likes to say that I go crazy if I haven't seen him for a couple of days. But hey, at least he considers that to be one of my cute qualities. 

But instead of sitting here wallowing in my misery, I am going to continue to take advantage of this night off and RELAX. I don't do much of that. 

I love this t-shirt by the way.

Happy New Year!

Here I go neglecting my blog again lol. But in my defense, I currently have three jobs, I just moved a few days ago, and I just got into a new relationship. So pardon me if I'm a little busy these days lol.

Luckily, one of those three jobs is a seasonal position and ends tomorrow.

But let's talk about this recent move. First of all, my family needs to have a TV show because when we're all together, it's like watching a comedy. The move was predicted to take four hours and ended up taking over six. Yes, we have a lot of stuff, but the majority of it includes my mother's wardrobe of clothes, purses, coats, etc. We still have A LOT of unpacking to do but at least the hardest part is over.

And about my relationship. Just know that he's a Taurus and I adore him :-)
