Our Goals for 2018//WE'RE BACK!!!

Hi everybody! We're back! *shoots off giant confetti gun*



A New Posting Schedule:  
We'll be TRYING to post every Monday (and occasional Saturdays if we have over flow!) and while the first and last posts of the month will be dual narrated, we'll be alternating between Lia and I for the middle, so you should get at least one post by each of us (instead of Lia posting everything and me going missing.)

A New Monthly Theme!
Last year, we tried to have a religious theme for each month (Sacred Heart, Holy Souls, Etc) but this year we're going to shake things up and have a Marian theme for each month. We'll either pick a Marian title after a major feast day that month, something going on that month (Ex. Mother's Day) or a lesser known feast happening that month. This months theme will be Our Lady of Lourdes, since that feast day is on the 11th.



KAT'S GOALS:

• To actually get my posts up on time
• To go somewhere new
• To do something spontaneous every once and a while

LIA'S GOALS:

• To update posts in a timely matter so that Kat doesn't put words in my mouth 
• To not get so annoyed with Kat 
• To not wack Kat upside the head with something heavy   (too late-L)
• Hi, its actually Lia now. This might be actual goals of mine now. She knows what she did.
• Have a monthly posting schedule that I actually follow. 

What our stats are right now!

• 15 followers! WOW!
• Over 8k page views! 10k is creeping up on us pretty quick! (I wonder what we should do to celebrate?)
• So far, the U.S. is where most of our pageviews come from, but Russia is a close second. :D

Awkward and Awesome: No. 6

 Awkward

•  Trying to whine about how little you got done and people are impressed instead. No. No that's not what I meant. Hear me whine!
  
  And its not like you feel great about it because people are amazed. You just feel disappointed in yourself because you didn't meet all your goals and now you can't even whine about it.
   
• Accidentally making a loud noise....in the middle of the night.....when all your family is asleep.
   
• Making instant potatoes or a box cake for dinner because people are over and they compliment you on the delicious potatoes or the lovely cake.
  
  well.....thanks.
   
• Getting chicken pox after 17 years of avoiding it
   
• Walking back into a room when you've been gone for five minutes and hearing the four year old say "You know how things sometimes fall all by themselves?"  (It was my phone. -K)
    
• When a cute boy and you get up from the communion rail at the same time and you do that awkward 'who goes first' dance. *face palm*
   
• Never finishing your awkward and awesome post so it is filled with things that happened months ago.
   
• Snorting a little too loudly as you laugh at your now really, REALLY old Awkward and Awesome post

Awesome

• Making instant potatoes because people are over for dinner and you don't have time to peel a entire bag of potatoes. And you just hope nobody will notice... And then they compliment you on them. 
  
  And I just sat there like...I feel very smug and also slightly evil.
  
   
• I have also made box cakes for parties AT OUR OWN HOUSE because I was lazy/procrastinated/was busy getting other stuff ready and then that cake was the first thing that was eaten and the thing that everyone came back for seconds for.
  
  Granted, I have a secret when making box cakes to make them extra yummy and moist but I can't share it. Tis a secret it tis!
  
  [No, it's not. I was out of vegetable oil, so I used melted coconut oil with my chocolate box cake and it ended up moist with just a hint of coconut. Enough that people could recognized SOMETHING was there, but not enough for the coconut haters to find it.]
   
• Clean hair on a windy day. (When you're facing INTO the wind)
   
• When your in a great mood and dancing around your room like a crazy to whatever is on the radio
   
• Doing things with your friends
   
• A good game of truth or dare. Let the shame and secrets flow
   
• An AMAZING story
   
• Or a good movie
   
• Or a web story (Like Emma Approved)
   
• Or this song!!!

Awkward and Awesome: Besties

 

Awkward: 

• When she sends prank emails from your account
• When you live far away from each other
• Can't have a conversation without anyone eavesdropping
• When someone makes your friend sad, so you have to kill them and end up getting blood on your new shoes.*
  
  * Please note: This is hypothetical.
• Liking the same things DOES have disadvantages.
  Friend: Where did all the chocolate cake go?
  Me: *shrugs* No idea
  Second Friend: It's got crumbs on its jacket-sess!
  
• When one is the people person and the other one wants to hide in a corner at social gatherings and hiss at anyone who comes near them. But they want to spend time together, so....
•  Buying one of your best friends her graduation present..... three days before her graduation.#Procastination #WorstFriendOfTheYear

Awesome: 

• When you can fan girl to each other
• Spending time with each other
• Reading each other's journals (with permission, of course)
• Sleepovers!
• Looking at each other and being able to understand what we are thinking
• Which can lead to random burst of laughter (sometimes in church)
• Mostly in front of people who then think we are crazy (But everyone thinks we're crazy, so no biggie.)
• Singing along with musicals and screaming as soon as the villain in a period drama comes on screen.
  "You!"
  *Pillow hits screen*
  *TV falls off wall*
  Me: (smugly) Got 'em
• Rapid fire texts and google chats
• Might I just say "Period Drama movie marathons?" The ones where you all pile together like a stack of kittens and get all toasty and warm and your legs go to sleep, but you refuse to move?
