If you really knew me
As soon as I get home from work it’s a mad dash to get out of my work clothes AS FAST AS POSSIBLE. Bring on the yoga pants. And no, I don’t do yoga. Ever.
I also wear said yoga pants covered in yogurt and cat hair out in public….and whenever I do I ALWAYS see someone I know.
95% of my photos are taken on my iphone…even though I have a nice DSLR.
I hate drying dishes and putting them away. I don’t mind washing them but drying them is the worst. Oddly enough, I don’t mind emptying the dishwasher. I’m complicated.
I see the best in people.
My hair doesn’t always look like this.
It usually looks like this.
My eyes change color from brown to dark olive green, depending on what I’m wearing. Or at least I like to think that they do.
My favorite season is fall. My least favorite season is the last two months of winter or whenever it gets above 80 degrees. 60-70 degrees is my jam.
I’m sensitive and my feelings get hurt easily.
When I clap my hands, I have to cross my pointer finger and middle finger on my right hand. I have no idea why I do this but I am certain if I stopped the world would end.

oh, I do the same thing with the yoga pants! run straight upstairs!! haha! and I'm sensitive too…sensitive girls unite! 😉
-
I immediately change into yoga pants or pajama pants too! I also have to take my bra off lol.
-
Werk those yoga pants… Werk em.
Also. I love you!
-
I am the same way about getting home from work and changing. As soon as I even change before I let my poor dogs out who are dying to get out. I can't stand being in work clothes one more minute!
-
Ditto on the yoga pants and voicemail – except I hate VM on my phone too. I usually delete my personal VM without listening to them.
-
Thumbs up: 60-70 degree weather!! Thumbs down: voicemails. Totally with you right there!
-
I get so cranky when it's above 80 especially being back in this awful humidity! I was the same wAy with yoga pants when I worked and now I just wear them all day! haha! love when you do these posts 🙂
-
I always change into sweats when we're home for the day after being out. I can't be comfortable while I clean or cook or play with O if I'm in pants or a skirt.
I hate wearing jeans — that's something most people I know know about me. I'll wear them when I have to or when I think they look better but I'd much rather wear something softer and loser!
-
Pretty sure I change into my pj's before I even say hello to my husband when I get home…get these work clothes OFF OF ME! And I wear make up maybe one day out of the week….maybe.
-
I hate voicemail on my work phone too! Hate it!!
-
I rock yoga pants 90% of the time.. dog hair or no dog hair at least I'm comfy!
-
I feel the same way about VM! Hubs always gets on me because mine is always full on my phone, I never ever check mine. My mom knows not even to leave them anymore! Also am right there with you on Fall, Yoga pants and being too sensitive!
-
Love it!
-
I love your transparency, and think I have to go out and buy a pair of those "yoga pants"…right up my alley covered with cat and dog fur. Why is it we always run into people when we head out with our pants in this condition and no make-up on? And the temperature…EZ and I are right with you on that one! And by the way, your little guy makes us smile every day!
-
I love voicemail but perSonal messages at home! Cool idea. This should be a link up.
Stop by and say hey http://www.itsagirlgirlworld.blogspot.com
-
Ditto on the voicemail. I'd straight up leave a message saying, "I'll never listen, so please don't bother." if it were socially acceptable.

Love this! Such a fun read! And amen to the yoga pants and hating drying dishes:)
-
I completed feel the same about voicemails!! Hate them at work but don't mind them on my phone! 😉
-
I think it's actually considered a sin to wear anything nicer than yoga pants in your own home! 😉 And your clapping thing–that's hilarious!
-
Yoga pants are the greatest.. whether they have stains or not! I feel like that on Sundays after church.. I rush to put on shorts. And the whole 60-70 degree weather thing.. yes!
-
Love this post! Girlfriend, this should definitely be the start to another link-up. 😉 I'd be all in.
-
Let's see…we are pretty much the same! I change INSTANTLY when I get home and I also HATE drying dishes. I too see the best in people and I'm very sensitive also (my husband thinks way too sensitive ;)) Glad to know a lil' bit more about you!
-
I'll widen the weather gap to 60-80. There I am happiest.
My hair is pretty much never styled and I'm currently typing while wearing pajama pants. At 1:30pm. But, I may change into my yoga's later. Livin large.
My husband's eyes change color depending on his mood. It's like a mood ring on his face. Pretty awesome. Super happy and laid back is bright and vibrant blue. Stressed out or not feeling well and they turn really light and grayish. Crazy!
-
This is great and I def agree with the weather part! haha Have a great day! xoxo
-
I absolutely DIE to get my bra off at the end of the day. Best feeling ever!!!
-
Let me just say… it's a good thing I have a job or else I would wear yoga/sweat pants all day everyday! My job keeps me looking decent LOL
If you really knew me….

OMG. We might be the same person. HAHAHA! I HATE blueberries and love raspberries, hate grocery stores (that's why I grocery shop at Target!), only buy sale clothes for myself & love country music! 🙂
-
I love these types of posts, learning little facts about my favorite bloggers is always so much fun! I can completely understand how people hate the grocery store, but grocery shopping is actually my favorite chore. Strange, I know.
-
I too hate coffee but since becoming a mommy think it could really help me sometimes!
-
I think you already know everything about me! But you need to add to your list "if you really knew me. You'd be calling me smulie".
-
I'm so glad I'm not the only one who hates coffee! I wish I like it because my 6 AM work schedule would be much better with coffee.
-
Country is my favorite too!!! And I still despise coffee…I even tried liking it in those newborn days, but no way Jose!!!
-
I can't believe you hate coffee! I don't know what my "things" are! I can't think of any… I'd have to ask my husband, sister and friends. I am SURE I have some!
-
How funny, I've been drafting a post like this for quite some time. I'm actually learning alot about myself! I LOVE going grocery shopping, late at night when I'm the only one in the store, by myself, with a Starby's because I LOVE coffee! 😉
-
Loved learning more about you! I totally get the sunscreen thing. My husband is a redhead 🙂 And I too only buy clothes on sale, but if I see something cute for my niece. Forget about it. Lord help me when I have my own child! I'm going to be broke. I used to be a morning person, but now I'm turning into a night owl. It makes mornings difficult when I can't fall asleep – so that's why I am now a coffee drinker. Well, that and because I really like the creamer I use in my coffee 🙂
-
Oh I love this! I didn't drink coffee until college. Then about 5 years ago I gave it up for 2 years. When I started drinking coffee again I was a whole new person!! I think this is a grey idea and will be putting this on my too be published blog post ideas!!! Thanks!
You can find me blogging t "Life on the Parsons Farm" : atparsons.blogspot.com
-
I also worry about my boys and school! And I have ever since my oldest was a baby. Now that he is 3 I worry even more!
As for me, you would know I also hate coffee and I hate wine. I know, I hear the gasps now, but it's true, I think both are really bitter and never enjoy them.
-
I am not a coffee person either! Sometimes I think I am the only one!
-
I feel like we're twins…haha! I'm On A Boat is too fun not to know the words to!
-
Ha! Cute post…I am also a procrastinating queen. Eeeek! Also…totally obsessed with Target. THat place is my jam! Xx.
-
I'm On A Boat is hilarious! Such a guilty pleasure. I too believe that Target is as magical as Disney. Same philosophy on children's clothing too but I always look for a sale just in case so I can get more cute stuff than planned!
-
awesome post! fun reading and cute family pic.
-
I'm with you on so many of these things! I love country music and always listen in the car. And I love love love to shop for Mason! I try to shop on sale but if it's that cute, forget it, I don't need a sale! But myself, I won't buy anything unless it's on sale. I've gotten a lot more frugal with my own clothes since having a baby, which I guess is good? Haha. But I do have to disagree…I love coffee! More so the taste than the benefits but it has to be a fuffy drink because I hate hate hate the taste of black coffee!
-
Non-coffee drinker here too! Except for the occasional caramel macchiato. Mmmm 😉 Fun reading this post!

I agree with a ton of this. However, YUCK to blueberries … I love ALL berries. GIVE THEM ALL TO ME. I actually have two pints of strawberries, a pint of blueberries, and those two little containers of raspberries in the fridge as well as some kiwi! YUM 🙂
-
I try never to buy things for me unless they are on sale too! However with baby clothes I imagine that will go out the window!
-
I love I'm On A Boat! I listen to it non-stop when I am working from home!
-
Hmm, that I am dry and sarcastic(I try to avoid that in online life because it doesn't translate super well), that I always laugh when people fall, that I laugh when I get really nervous, that I cry a lot more than I used to since having a bebeh, and that I am a picky eater. you know, one of those who doesn't like her foods to touch.
Fun post!
-
Knowing these things about you now makes me even more certain that we are meant to be friends!:) I am not a coffee drinker either, and am definitely more of a morning person than a night owl. I love me some berries – yum! And I am a worry wart of the worst variety, and am pretty certain that becoming a parent has only made that side of me even worse!!!:) xoxo!
-
I never drink hot coffee from a filter/coffee pot or even the Keurig but I do like Iced Coffee in the cartons from grocery store. I work better under pressure too.
-
Costco is my Disneyland too! It's the only kind of "grocery shopping" I enjoy haha. And I'm becoming obsessive over sunscreen, especially since Elliott is so fair-skinned.
-
I love this and I'm totally stealing it next week!! I'm not a coffee person either!
-
This post is so fun! I did it as well…

i just found your blog and i love it! i pick target everytime when i have to run to a store! and never buy things for myself full price – I LOVE clearance racks!
You are just too cute. And oh my goodness, I could not believe that was Taylor Swift! I've been {very} excited for her new CD. I heard this song on the radio and had no idea it was her. It is definitely a new vibe for her.
I loooooove me some making the team. I think I look forward to it every year! Although it terrifies me to think about what I'd look like in a uniform…
LOVED the Taylor Swift song/video! Can't wait for her next CD. Love her and hate all the hate she gets!
Your DVR looks so similar to mine…what is it with toddlers and Paw Patrol!? Thank goodness they're finally making toys for it.
My nails never happen either.
The Taylor Swift video makes me so happy too…I bought the song immediately.
And I cry at Toy Story 3 too. Every time.
love this post! When I read that you have Paw Patrol on your DVR I had to laugh. We watch Paw Patrol every day. It is almost exhausting. Yesterday when I was in the shower I heard my little guy screaming for help in the most horrific voice I have ever heard. With shampoo in my hair and soaking wet I ran into the living room. He was sitting perfectly fine in the recliner so I asked why he was screaming. He simply stated he was stuck on a mountain and he was yelling for Ryder and the Paw Patrol team to come rescue him. I couldn't believe it. The life of a boy mom! LOL
Those books are my all time favorite read list as well and I'd be lying if I said I didn't sit in my car in work parking lot for a few more minutes because the new Taylor song came on just as I was pulling in…#addicted.
So fun! I love when you do these. 🙂 I took nail polish off my toes two nights ago and still haven't painted them…who has time?! Haha!! DVR…man, do I miss ours! We are in a furnished rental with no DVR until after Christmas… #firstworldproblems
Happy Tuesday!!
I'm like that about getting my nails done at the nail place. Sometimes I put it off simply because I can't motivate myself to go. Ha! And I also love the Taylor Swift video/new song. Can't wait for her new album!
I hadn't seen that video yet… its funny to watch Taylor Swift grow up. She's so freaking TINY!!!!!
I never get my nails painted -& when they do – they last 24 hours IF I'm lucky
I love that video and the song — such a happy one 🙂 And I love that I'm not the only one who continuously cries at the end of Toy Story and that you never manage to get your nails painted either! xoxo
Your DVR sounds just like mine ;). Yes I'm in love with TSwift's new song and the video… So cute! We listen to her Red album whenever I rock Noah to sleep!
Right there with you on the books!! Love them!! Your son is adorable and your hubby is not far behind! 🙂
LOVE LOVE LOVE that video and song sooo much!!!
If you want a work around to painting your nails…check out Jamberry Nail Wraps! They are awesome! I sell them because I LOVE them also! Stick on and file off the end! So simple – no dry time and they last for weeks!!!
You will love them – promise!

Wow, I feel like we're better friends already. If you really knew me, you might know that Taylor Swift is a guilty pleasure of mine and I haven't heard that song before, and now I'm obsessed. Thanks for that. I think I'm going to go play a few more thousand times and make my day a little brighter. 😀

Oh I love making the team as well. It is always my Sunday afternoon guilty pleasure.
Winnie? Check. Despicable Me? Check. Toy Story? Double check. My nails are never painted (sigh). And I just heard that Taylor Swift song for the first time today and LOVED it. I wasn't the biggest Taylor fan for a while, but she nailed this one. And the video too – love that she's making fun of herself for being known as a wonky/white girl dancer!:) Also, I need her haircut stat. Dying.
I'm with you on the teenager books- I LOVE them! I've yet to get into the Divergent series, but that's next on my list 🙂 Love the pic of you and your hubby too.
tswift and her new music vid are totally my JAM and you're killing it in that pink dress!!
I didn't know you had half sisters – my hubby is mostly an only child with 3 half brothers but they the closest one is 14 years older than him so he's mostly an only child too. We just recorded Alladin too – how did Hudson do with it? Callie likes the signing but there's a lot of scary parts in that movie. I love it when you do these little posts – i really should do one myself!
If we were friends you would know that I can only eat Jiff peanut butter and now that they have the Whips…I am obsessed!
Young Adult books are my favorite!
I cry with Toy Story 3 every time too…it always makes me think of my favorite toys.
This Taylor Swift song must've just come out, right? Everyone's talking about it! This is the first time I've heard it anyway – it's very catchy!
Have a great weekend! -Jess @ Sweet Little Ones
