Feeling Accomplished

March 3, 2016 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

I’m taking my first official vacation for the year. This weekend is jam packed and I figured I’d take a day or so off to relax before it began.

I realized having Rizzo in my life has made me less lazy in the sense of sleeping. No matter what time I go to bed, I’ll always wake up no later than 7 am because he has to do his business.

There are four pups in the house at the moment and not having to go to work and cuddling with them instead was joyous. Best decision ever. Then I had a lovely shower before getting ready to head out to work on my side stuff with a drink in my hand.

Cocohodo | Katy, Texas | Ice Blended Green Tea Latte

I sat sitting in Cocohodo for a good hour and a half trying to fix my DNS issues all because my laptop decided to do an update last night. After much research on YouTube videos, because no other web pages worked, I found a great one that fixed my issue! Ugh … jerks for having updates that fudge people’s day.

But anyway, we’re all good now and my tummy is full from Cocohodo. I got a lot done which wouldn’t happen if I didn’t leave the house. I would have stayed longer if I didn’t get kicked out of my seat for a big group of ladies where the table I moved to was a dead spot for Wi-Fi.

Back to checking things off my list. I love when things get completed especially when it’s still super early!

Happy Thursday, poops!

PS4, Dentists, and a Fuller House

February 26, 2016 by Mellie Dee 2 Comments

PlayStation 4 Uncharted

I finally unboxed my PS4 and downloaded everything last night. Afterward I spent almost three hours playing Helldivers with BIL. When he had to go to bed I played Uncharted for a short while. I forgot how bad I suck at video games but hopefully practice makes perfect. Or makes me wanna shoot myself in the face and never play again. Everyone tells me it’s an easy game but hey, when you’re new at this, everything is hard. I’ll get there though. I like that I can die and come back to life with no consequences on this game. haha

Scary Dentist Meme | The Meta Picture

After what felt like forever to beat two levels, I switched to Grey’s Anatomy until four in the morning. I ended up only sleeping an hour before I had to wake up for my dentist appointment where I found out I had my first cavity. 🙁 But I already knew that would happen. I still have all of my wisdom teeth and that area is always hard to clean. Luckily only one cavity. I’ve already set an appointment to get them extracted. First major surgery for me. Eeeps.

Can we just talk about how scary going to the dentist is? Thankfully there was no scary clown tooth hanging in the corner at my dentist’s office. And I was glad I had the first appointment because the dentist had more time with me. Or maybe this office is different. It was my first time there so I don’t know. All the other places I’ve ever been always made me feel uncomfortable and I never went back. Hopefully this means I’ve found my dentist! Plus after our talks, we realized we both suck at PS4, he has a twin brother, and he knew people I knew back in high school even though we went to different high schools and he’s like four years older than me.

Fuller House Premiere Postervia

If you’re a 90’s kid, you most likely grew up on Full House and today Fuller House premiered. You don’t know how excited I was for this. I love being able to see how the cast grew up and changed. And the fact that they brought the real Nicky and Alex back was something I never would of expected. I’m sad Michelle is missing because of their prior engagements and when they asked the other Olsen sister, she declined. Ugh … but we make do, right?

I am making it a thing to watch it with Mum and June. More with Mum because when we were younger, after watching Full House and Family Matters, we’d go outside and walk or ride our bikes before eating dinner. It was a routine which gave me a lot of memories so I wanted to share this with her.

So far, we’ve watched four episodes and to hear them bring up the past, and for them to joke about things that are actually real life makes me smile. I don’t think younger kids would love it as much as the ones that grew up on this because it’s more clean than other shows that are out now.

Okay, not it makes me want to go and buy the complete series of Full House. Catch y’all later!

PlayStation 4 Noob

February 25, 2016 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

Thursday is finally here. This week was definitely too long! So long that, I went and drank a few last night and realized I’ve become a lightweight. Maybe it has to do with the fact I’ve lost weight and now cannot contain as much alcohol as I use to or maybe it’s because I don’t drink like I did when I was with this one guy. It’s a whole new thing for me and I’m not use to it. I can’t hang. Waahhhhh.

PS4 Uncharted Bundle

via

Yesterday, I went and picked up my PS4 and could hear my money emptying my account. Like the sound you hear on video games. Mum says I already have too many hobbies so I shouldn’t add another one but .. I do what I want! Just kidding. Hopefully buying one pays off in the end and it doesn’t just sit there and collect dust.

The one and only reason I decided to buy a PlayStation is to spend time with my family (and friends that don’t mind a super duper beginner doofus) and decided on the Uncharted bundle for when they aren’t available. haha Justifiable, right?

Debating now if I should continue using my PSN account or create a new one. I’m not a big fan of the one I am currently using but I’m also not sure what I want the new one to be since you cannot change once you have it. Dang it, Sony, change that policy already because people are willing to pay a few bucks to do so!

John made a joke but I’m 95% sure he was being serious.

You bought a new car AND a PlayStation BEFORE you get laid off?!

Because you know … oil companies aren’t doing so swell at the moment so we joke around and ask each other if we’ve been laid off yet at least once a week. And truthfully, he’s right. I shouldn’t be throwing down dolla dolla bills at this time. But I’m a cautious person and never do anything like this and thought … eff it. Because if I didn’t, I’ll never do anything.

So tonight, it’ll be the unboxing of my new toy … after I take care of more insurance stuff.

Thankful Thursday

February 18, 2016 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

Gaming & Blogging

Thankful for my family and video games. Being able to play video games with Sissy, BIL, and my cousins has brought us a bit closer. I’ve been contemplating getting a PS4 to join the boys when I am home. But then I could also just drive out to BIL and play with him physically and link up there. I don’t know. Still up in the air. But I cherish these moments we get to share together even if it’s just “stupid” video games.

Danica - Mellie Dee

Thankful I was privileged to hold another life in my arms. Meet Danica. She’s exactly one week old yesterday. She looks like a doll and I kept getting asked if she was even real. She is so freaking light and she didn’t cry at all. She did yawn and stretch a few times and even opened her pretty little eyes, stared at me for a little bit, then went back to sleep.

Sissy sent me a link last night where adoption agency needs volunteers to help cuddle and nurture newborns awaiting adoption. I would totally be down for it if I didn’t work 9+ hours a day because who’s going to take care of the bundle of joy while I’m at work? Sigh … so adorable. Would be a good test run for people wanting one I guess. haha But I guess it’s a good thing I can’t volunteer because I’m still on that let-me-give-you-this-back mode.
