Humpday Confessions - Snapchat

I had an awesome time last week posting about my Instagram confessions - so why don't we play a similar game and talk about my love for Snapchat?

If you're not up on Snapchat don't worry, there's still things for you and yours here in this confession (and maybe I can convert you and you'll add me??)



+ Once I accidentally added someone on snapchat because I assumed his instagram name was the same. I sent something creepy like "look who's stalking who, now!".

THEN the super creepy part was that this person confirmed they didn't have snapchat and later I got a message (that I took a screenshot of!) of a creepy guy I assumed to be high on drugs with a "Who dis be?"

+ I over-snap, not sorry.

+ Snapchat is the app where I take 99.9% of my photos from because I believe it has better lighting. This is also a reason why I over-snap because most of my photos are begging to be sent!

+ My "Best Friend" position is ironically taken by someone I don't snap anymore. And they won't. go. away. No, thank goodness this isn't the same guy I've been sober from (for 47 DAYS now), but it's someone who I purposefully don't send anything to first because I don't want him to get the wrong idea that I'm too clingy (see here)

+ Poor Kayla has had a couple of my accidental not-for-her snaps and she's quite the trooper. Thankfully nothing racy.

+ Yes, taking my phone into the restroom means I'm sending a potty snap to Brooke, Melissa and Kailyn (who else wants in?!?)

+ I won't look at snaps until I'm somewhat presentable in the morning so that I can reply back immediately. 

+ The above question is null and void if I have a sweaty selfie to share with my closest ladies.

+ When I share something to "my story" it means I don't want to scroll through my whole friends list. Please don't be offended that you didn't get the original copy.

+ I love snapchat videos.

+ I hate receiving snapchat videos at work when I can't watch them.

+ There NEEDS to be a group chat function so I can see who I'm supposed to reply-all to when I have a witty comeback or it's part of a conversation.

+ Just like instagram, I have more blog friends than real life friends in my snap-list. It's normal.

+ My blogger snap friends have a special folder in Bloglovin' and I'll read your blogs first!

So now that we've got that out of the way - if you snapchat and you want to play along, comment below and we can take our usernames offline! :)

Linking up with the always funny, always awesome Kathy

Things I Learned This Sunny Weekend

Happy Monday, friends! 

It's time for another fantastic round of "Things I Learned this Weekend" and I'm so extremely thrilled about it because it's now become an actual link up with miss Katie QuĂ©! 

I'm excited because I only just found her recently through Brooke and I'm already loving how she talks about one of my favorite dating and reading topics - "Ghosting". Also notably called the 'Slow Fade" and the "Phase Out" by some other wise souls, ghosting is when you are dating someone and all of a sudden they disappear. Poof - out of your life, no text message to ever be answered again, no instagram photo to ever be double tapped. I've done this several times and been the victim of it as well - let me tell you a story....

Wait, this post isn't about ghosting - it's about things I learned this weekend! Sorry, you'll have to wait for story time.





+ It's not weird to buy a deck chair and read in the sun in your driveway all weekend.


+ Meal prep is effective on Saturdays too.



+ Daily To-do lists are my new jam.



+ I'm great at keeping a food journal at work.
+ I'm horrible about it at home.
+ Positive energy attracts positive people. I'm thankful.
+ I drink more water when it's warm outside (I just called 65 degrees warm, deal with it).


+ Spring pedicures are more fun than winter pedicures.
+ I need better sunscreen if the weather is going to be like this again next weekend.
+ I described myself as an "outgoing introvert"and love how accurate that really is.
+ Wait, the Masters happened this weekend? Who won?
+ My blog game is more on-point than I though it was, take the test for yourself!

And that's a wrap, some pretty solid lessons right? Are you going to link up next week?
