I let it break me

I love to plan parties. It's one of my favorite things to do. And I admit that I always go way over board.

This bridal shower however is a first for me. I have to plan it with six other people.

Hi my name is Katlin and I have OCD.

The one semi-good thing is that most of the girls have been MIA. However that puts a lot of the planning and prepping on my shoulders.


Most of the time I can handle it all but this weekend I broke.

I lost my ever loving mind on my husband, who by the way did NOT deserve it but he is always in my direct line of fire.


I had a full day of shower errands to run. I went to the florist and had a number in my head and then when it was almost double I froze and just paid it. Ahhhhhhhhh about half an hour later when talking to my momma I realized I can't pay that! So now today I have to call and change my order. That thought alone makes my anxiety a 20. I ordered the rest of the desserts, and finished paying the room rental fee. I have about $300 extra dollars of my own money out there until people pay.Which was supposed be due on Friday and three people have not paid yet!!!!


After a weekend from hell with me being a bitch and my husband not understanding what he did (read: he did nothing) we had a long talk last night and the thing is I just get overwhelmed sometimes.

I do it to myself. And then I blame it on him. He is amazing and I'm thankful that he still loves me despite my crazy ass ways.

So the shower is 13 days away. That means I only have 12 days left (including today) to get everything done. I have a list, a time line and a plan. I also have bottles of wine to get me through it.

Friday Favorites

Love that it's Friday Love that its Friday and we have a beautiful weekend ahead of us! Linking up with Andrea today! One These PJ's. When we first got married (and even before I was married really) I used to wear cute PJ's to bed and then I started to wear not so cute PJ's to bed so I ordered some new ones and OMG girls get these now. So so soft so so comfy and under $20.00! Plus they have pockets!   Two While your shopping at Kohls throw some of these picture frames in your cart! Just for fun! I love that they are easy to change out and have a distressed look! Plus they can sit on a shelf or be hung on the wall. Love! Three We have been swimming like crazy and that equals all the things that go with swimming like a million towels and swim suits. My bathroom was a mess. I usually never wash my swim suits I just rinse them out and hang dry they last a lot longer doing it that way and so I had things hanging every where! So I ord

A nice little sweet spot

The sweet spot…. We seem to have hit one. I feel like we have not been in a sweet spot since the twins were about 6 months old. You know before they were mobile and can get into a ton of mischief. When kids are 0-6 months they still like to be held they eat mostly bottles and they mostly just stay in one spot. No issues, you can go places and even though you have to pack up your whole house to be prepared you can relax. And if you are in my family someone is always willing to hold or feed or change a baby. 7-months to 2.5 years old is what I refer to as the lost years. You have so many things you have to do for them they are not potty trained and they are mobile and get into EVERYTHING. Going outside is more work than its worth and with twins they scatter in opposite directions. Three on one is so hard handle in big open spaces. I would often find myself skipping outside time because the work was just too much for me. When the twins turned 3 and Grayson was 6 it felt like we had a

Home Schooling

Ah home schooling something that all of the country was thrown into. March 13 th was the last day that Grayson went to school and Charlotte and Marshalls last day was March 12 th . We got the call on March 15 th that school was closed for 2 weeks and that a pick up for at home materials would be on Tuesday. It was not required just suggested and so we loosely did school work. A worksheet here, spelling words here, some math problems ya know simple things. We truly believed that 2 weeks and they would be back in the classroom that is what the district presented as happening and so the distance learning was just to occupy time not to really learn anything new. Everything we were given was review.  Then we got the notification March 30 th we were closed again for another 2 weeks. Again, we were being loose with the learning because I was now working from home all but one day a week and had all three kids home and lets be honest it was a lot. Michael was still working 4-5 days a wee
