Linking up with Jenna for 'The last thing Thursday'

Teen Mom. Yes I watch it, it's a guilty pleasure show :)



{Wanted to paint my nails like}


Love the color

{Obsessed Over}

I really want one of these but they are so exspensive! It would be perfect for work though!

{Wanted to DIY}


Found this on Pinterest. You buy a cheap $1 mug at the Dollar Store. Then in magic marker you write whatever you want. Put it in the oven at 350 degrees for 30 mins.

{Wanted to splurge on}





Owl cookie jar from Pier One, but its $40!

(Miranda this makes me think of you ;)

It finally arrived!

My Eric Condren Address book finally arrived today!

Yes this is now in my possession!

However I got it in black and it says 'The Kasbergers'

I would show it but for some reason my picture down loader isn't working.

I have a ton of papers with peoples addresses on it, now for once I can be organized and actually put them in an address book. It was a little pricey but it's something that I will have for a long time so I figured it was worth it!

It seemed like a "normal" Saturday night at the jail...

I picked up a shift early at the jail on Saturday. I was in booking. It was slow and seemed like it was going to be a nice 'easy' shift but as a Corrections Officer I must expect the unexpected.

I got a phone call from my Sgt. that the female who was on second floor who was 5 months pregnant and with drawling from Heroin needed to go to the hospital.

Now my husband and I have been trying to conceive for over 2 years now. In the back of my mind I thought...am I the best person to go along? But it didn't matter, I had to put my feelings aside.

I took the female to the hospital who was experiencing cramping and spotting. She had taken heroin 2 days before she came to the jail and was going through withdrawal. She knew she was 5 months along but said she couldn't stop because she was addicted.

Not once had she been to see a Dr. while being pregnant. She didn't know what she was having. The Dr. ran tests and did blood draws on her. They also wanted to do a ultrasound on the baby. The babies heart beat was perfect. She wasn't having any contractions.

I asked her if she knew the sex of her baby and she said no. We were about to find out. I could anticipation in my stomach as we were about to find out. I was excited for her. She was going to have a baby girl! Her reaction when she found out was 'cool'. I could feel tears forming in the back of my eyes. 5 fingers, 5 toes, spine was good. I needed to gain control of myself. I kept thinking to myself, why aren't you excited? You did this to your body and yet somehow through the grace of God your baby is ok!

She asked if her baby was going to go through withdrawal, the ultrasound tech said they weren't sure until her baby was actually born but that she should stop all extra curricular activities...

We then left and headed back to the jail. When we got back I had to run to the bathroom and cry. I don't understand....why can she conceive and not care and my husband and I pay thousand and thousand of dollars for a child?

It's ok though, we will have a child some day. It will happen. I refuse to give up hope.

Strawberries!!

Yes it's that time of year again! Strawberry season!

I am super excited! There is a strawberry farm called Glendales that I go to every year with my Mom and pick a flat. I can't wait! Nothing beats fresh strawberries! Getting them from the store just isn't the same (though I bought some yesterday because they had some on sale for 2/$4)

Look at all the wonderful things you can make with them!!

(This year my Mom is going to teach me how to make strawberry jam)

Happy Strawberry Season everyone!!
