Sometimes and Always #18

Sometimes: Stuff like taxes, deductibles, bills and insurance confuses me.

Always: I'm so glad that my parents are both CPAs and understand it all. 

Sometimes: I keep buying nail polish even though I have way too many already.

Always: I get so excited when I find a new color that I love.

Wet n Wild "I Need a Refresh-Mint"

Sometimes: I freak out when I think about all the germs on the buggy I'm pushing.

Always: My hand sanitizer comes out frequently. 

Sometimes: I get nervous buying stuff from Etsy. 

Always: It turns out better than I expected and I love what I bought.

In memory of our sweet baby. Shop here

Sometimes: I desperately want to be able to hang out with my blog friends in real life.

Always: I think we all need to chip in and buy a blog-plane. Let's do it. 

Sometimes: My hubby has to wear his "fancy" uniform at work.

Always: I think it's my favorite part of his job. Rawr. : )


Grab the button on my sidebar and link up...and then go over to Fran's blog and read my guest post about how we basically got stuck in Jamaica. Good times.

Your bracelet is so sweet! Etsy is the best place for things like that, I think! And I am so jealous your parents are CPAs...I am such an idiot about that kind of stuff!

Lauren said...

I'm so like that with nail polish too haha :-)

Lani @ Its My Life said...

I could have copy and pasted this entire post, except my parents aren't CPA which makes all the first stuff really confusing. I think we might be kindred spirits;) Hope you are having a great day!

Stormy said...

I just painted my nails Mint too and I'm loving it!

The Presutti's said...

Count me in for the blog plane! :)

Jazmine said...

Taxes, deductible etc... confuse me. Half the time I have to ask my parents because they're older and have more experience on it. But ugh where's the easy button?? lol

Sarah said...

I love that nail polish color! I'm the same way. I have a bag full of colors and I STILL go out and buy new ones! haha but I don't think you can have too many. And I was totally confused when you said buggy....I think you mean cart ;) hahaha

lovebug said...

I ALWAYS buy Essie which is $7 a bottle, I can't help it!

Kristin said...

Blog plane? Genius. My husband does the tax stuff because I don't like it either. Have a great day, Megan!

Michelle said...

Your guest post made my day, because I seriously had almost the same experience in Jamaica! My husband and I went on our honeymoon there in May, and had a nightmare travelling (delayed planes, overbooked flights, etc). We went to the Sandals in Ocho Rios and had an awesome time. But once we arrived at the airport to leave, we were told the air traffic controllers were on strike and there would be no flights in or out of the country for several days. The airline refused to help us and we were told we were "on our own" until flights opened up. It was a hot mess, but we found a hotel that gave us a discount and left 2 days later :)

Neely said...

I wanna hang with my blog friends in real life too wahhhhh!

Michaela said...

Great nail color! Blog plan...yes. I'll get right on that :)

Kimberly said...

I am dying to meet all of my blog friends! I am hoping a big conference comes to the NY area soon OR that I attend/arrange a meet up this summer.

poptartyogini said...

I love your sometimes/always. They're so creative. I like coming up with one to leave in the comments. Sometimes I wish some one else would take my tax docs to my accountant. Always I end up doing it. My brother and sister are both accountants for heaven's sake and they don't know how to do my taxes?!

MzJessicaxo said...

Just found your blog, I love it!
I love the "Sometimes and Always"
I did it on my blog as well, and put your link up :)

Ashley Canfield said...

Oh my goodness I love the bracelet from Etsy! I just purchased my first item from Etsy, and I was super nervous too! It was an adorable print I sent to my best friend as a bday present. It turned out great but I was really scared it wouldn't (especially since I sent it straight to her and didn't get to see it first!).

Happiness Is... said...

I love the bracelet you chose - gorgeous.

Amanda said...

tara said...

Natalie said...

I need to borrow some nail polish from you...I don't have many at all!

Bethany said...

I had to double check, but I picked up that same exact nail polish at CVS last week! It is perfect for spring :)

Beth Ann said...

Blog plane...please, invite me! I kind of have airplane phobia but I will try to get over it! ;)

Rachel Larson said...

1. I completely agree on the blog plane idea!!
2. I'm still a college student and so nervous to get out into the real world and have to take care of taxes, bills, and all that finance stuff. I know NOTHING! I'm just thankful right now my mom does all of it! haha :)
3. You and your husband are so darn cute and I love your memorium bracelet that you purchased! :)

Ana F. said...

I hate taxes too. Good thing the husband knows it all :-) I had to make a point of not buying nail polish anymore! I have way too many!

And I say... Let's buy the blog plane!!

Stephanie said...

Every year during open enrollment for insurance I always call my mom and ask her what we should do! :)

Emily w/Amazing Grapes said...

Have to say..when G-man is all up in his uniform, I love it. That's every day, which makes it so great..and when he's in his khaki's, its even greater..I have yet to see him all fancified in his whites (chokers, as he calls them) and his dress mess (which I guess is all out fancy shmancy) but i hope to one day. *cough..wedding cough cough*

any way, I ALSO have to say that I came thisclose to licking my fingers after pumping gas, when a germaphobe was insistent on me using the sanitizer after..since I kept refusing. Just to prove how much I didn't care - I didn't lick them though. haha

Kristine said...

Girl, I dig the fact that you are rocking the camo in that pic. I'm a BIG believer in camo. Some might say I'm mildly obsessed with it. But hunting camo only... I can't get down with army camo :/

Holly said...

Love the blog plane idea, and the bracelet. :)

Also, what is a buggy...? It sounds germy. :O

AW said...

Omg, girl. I bought 4-5 new nail polish colors yesterday!!!!!! I can't even wear them on my finger nails for nursing school! But I HAVE to have color on my toenails. Today I have "sorbet" my Revlon --- doesn't that sound tasty??? I'd love to have the job that comes up with the names!!! Xoxoxo p.s. great bracelet for its purpose -- prayers to your family

Lindsey @ Running Down A Dream said...

I love buying new nail polishes! And I think it's hilarious that you didn't even include your husband's head in that picture! Ha! Point taken :)

Liz said...

Yeah... thankfulky the Hubs understands all that jazz because I couldn't care less about it!! Cute color I'm alwsys afraid to put colors like that on my toes... i don't want people to think I've got fungus!! Love that bracelet such a sweet way to remember. Umm blog plane yes!!!! Come visit me and bring your hubs so we can force them to be friends... I'm sure it wouldn't be hard!!

Cindy said...

Love that little bracelet! What do the charms stand for? I'm guessing the green is for the baby's due date. I hope you're doing ok! I've been thinking about you. Hang in there!

Holly said...

I'm totally on board with buying a blog plane. For reals.

Love that bracelet :)

Love you, friend!

Julie @ The Smitten Mintons said...

I adore that bracelet. And I adore you. The end! :)

Leisha said...
