Hello y'all!
The DeShazo has pressured me into resurrecting this old blog once again. By "pressured", I mean that she mentioned it many times with her most persuasive face. So, I reckon that means we will share a blog topic once or twice a month, or something like that. A little background - this blog was started about 5 years ago (and Vic and The Deshazo did pressure me then!) to help keep me accountable for weight loss. It then just turned into something sort of fun.
I'm not quite certain what happened to the Martin house in this last year. It's been full of so many changes and a whirlwind. Things that haven't changed, however, are the obscene amounts of baked goods and candy corn that I can and have consumed. I just cannot stop. I've even started quizzing Liv on her spelling words before school and then rewarding her with candy corn at 7:30am so that I can grab an extra handful for myself as well. I just want her to be fully awake at school, right? #noshame
I've found a new fall cake and Martinez and I are pretty obsessed with it. Bring on the pumpkin spice bundt cake.
And because I cannot stop baking things, Martinez's wishes were granted and the homemade cinnamon rolls I normally only make in the winter were prepared.

For our 1st "Thoughtful Thursday", The DeShazo and I are answering some questions from a journal prompt we found.
1. Do you sleep with your closet doors open or closed?- Definitely closed. All the doors everywhere should be closed.
2. Do you take the shampoos and conditioner bottles from hotels? -Only if it's high quality...but as a general rule...Nope. That's just extra to unpack.
3. Do you sleep with your sheets tucked in or out? - Do people sleep with sheets tucked out???? Doesn't that defeat the purpose of "tucked"? Tuck those suckers in!
4. Have you stolen a street sign before?- Nope
5. Do you like to use post-it notes? - Heck, yes (at work)! My boss, on more than one occasion, as advised me of the cost per post it note and has suggested I begin using other options. It ain't happened yet. Grin. I won't be grinning when he reads this though. I'll probably come back to work with them all confiscated. But he doesn't know where I hide the backups.
6. Do you cut out coupons but then never use them? - I used to do that.
7. Would you rather be attacked by a big bear or a swarm of bees? - Bear. That story would make me sound so much interesting.
8. Do you have freckles? -Not that eye can see. Hehehehe. You got that right? Eye....instead of "I". Anyone??
9. Do you always smile for pictures? - Maybe?
10. What is your biggest pet peeve? - Lateness. Let's just be respectful and be on time.
11. Do you ever count your steps when you walk? - Nope
12. Have you peed in the woods? -Yep. I lived in the country in Arkansas for 20 years. It's kind of a requirement in my mind.
13. Have you ever pooped in the woods? - I don't think so... but ya know.... I wouldn't say for no for sure.
14. Do you ever dance even if there's no music playing? - Why yes, yes I do. I have been trying to perfect my twerk for The DeShazo for years in our office. There's rarely music when I make my attempts.
15. Do you chew your pens and pencils? - Yep
16. What is your least favorite movie? - Probably a toss up between some Indian Jones movie with skulls spinning in circles that Kevin made me sit through at the theater years ago and any Matrix movie. I just don't get them.
17. What size is your bed? -King
18. What is your song of the week? - I've listened to Anthem Lights- 10,000 Reasons/What a Beautiful Name on repeat this week. Oh, and let's not forget that I listen to Deeper Than The Holler by Randy Travis pretty frequently.
19. Is it ok for guys to wear pink? - Yep. Why does anyone care?
20. Do you still watch cartoons? - Yep....two little ones kinda force that on you.
