It’s that time again…these are my monthly confessions for September!
Food Confessions
- Not gonna lie, the people who tell me they don’t like cake/sweets always make me a little uncomfortable. Don’t get me wrong, I’m all about balance, but sometimes you have to treat yourself otherwise, are you really living?
- I also don’t understand the ones who claim they were so busy they forgot to eat a meal. I plan my whole day around food, so I promise you that person will never be me.
Beautyย Confessions
- I try really hard not to but sometimes when I’m in meetings, I give people makeovers in my mind. I pick out a new hairstyle, outfit, makeup, the whole 9 yards. It’s a blessing and a curse really.
- I would 100% create Halloween makeup looks everyday if it were acceptable.
Random Confessions
- While shopping the other day, I totally went up to another vehicle (same make, same model) and couldn’t figure out for the life of me why the button on the side of the door wasn’t unlocking when I clicked it. I also started semi-freaking out whenย I noticed a huge scratch on the side of the door. I was about five seconds away from calling my husband in extreme panic when my boys pointed to the next row over and said, “Mom, isn’t that our car over there?”
- I completely blanked the other day when someone asked me how old I was. Fortunately I don’t think they expected an actual answer, but I couldn’t even muster up a response if I wanted to. It was like “Um, well I know I’m older than 21…and I think I had my 25th birthday..” lol. In case you’re wondering I’m 26, and it only took me about 2 minutes to remember. ๐
Pet Peeve of the Week
People who fail to signal irk me to no end. It’s like really, you’re that lazy that you can’t switch on the signal that’s right next to where your hand is anyways? If I could write them a ticket on the spot, I totally would. #copwifeprobs
Humor/Funnies
ย What funny things have happened to you lately? Share them with me in the comments!
Thanks for stopping by!-Cara
ย Linking up with ย What’s Happening Wednesday
I “blanked out” the other day. I was leaving a voicemail message at work. Despite saying our company’s phone number at least a dozen times every work day, I just drew a blank as to what it was. I hung up and then called back and left another message, pretending that our phone system was “giving us trouble”. I also hate when people don’t use their turn signals. Or when they STOP and THEN turn the signal on.
Oh I know..the ones who completely stop before turning.. don’t even get me started on them lol. Thanks for commenting! ๐
My pet peeves are also about driving. We have a new sign on the main road by my house that talks about not hogging two lanes. People think they can just ride down the middle because at the end of the road they merge together. SMH
Ugh how annoying is that?! I can imagine that gets old real fast…
I agree with literally every. single. one. of. these. Yes, on all of the food ones! I seriously always plan my day around food! And what good person doesn’t like sweets?! I love how you give makeovers in your head! All of these made me laugh!

Haha I try really hard not to, but sometimes I can’t help but want to give people a new hairstyle or something! ๐ Glad you enjoyed it!
I don’t understand people who forget to eat a meal.. like I plan my entire day around when I get to eat hahah!
http://www.amemoryofus.com
Me too girl! haha
Haha. I don’t trust people who don’t like sweets, either! Seriously, something is wrong there ๐
Exactly! Lol
Those funnies were just what I needed to today!! Haha love it
Happy to help! lol
I am in love with all those Memes! I totally agree with you on the people that “forgot to eat” like how?! I will be eating breakfast and already wondering where my next meal will come from haha
Thank-you! Haha I’m the same way!
Bahaha I love your comment about planning your whole day around food – I’m the same!
Thanks! lol food is an important aspect of the day!
These memes just made my day. LOL.
Oh, I don’t know why some people don’t like sweets. They’re missing half of their lives. ๐
Yeah really. It’s like clearly you’re not eating the sweets I eat, otherwise you’d be crazy not to like them! ๐
These are so good. I love sweets. How can you not like sweets? Lol.
Yeah really lol!
Today I was pretty much your bottom graphic lol. But I did find the energy to comment:)
Haha that’s been my life lately too! ๐
I’m totally with you on the no-signaling! It drives me absolutely crazy!
I know, it’s not hard!
Couldn’t agree with you more about people who don’t signal! It’s not hard! Awesome post as always, Cara!
Thanks Kiara!
Can I co-sign your food confessions? I will never understand how people forget to eat because I start to get hangry and not feel well. And the people who always skip the cake at the office birthday or any event in general always make me snicker. One slice or a few bites aren’t going to kill ya! Enjoy it, life is too short.
Green Fashionista
Yes definitely! My husband KNOWS when I’m hungry haha because I get so irritable. And exactly- enjoy a slice of cake! ๐
I don’t understand people who forget meals either! I wish I could do that.
Yeah I’d have to be really sick for that one to happen lol
Haha agreed on the pet peeve front! Those memes are perfection btw!! haha

Haha the last one describes my life most days perfectly. ๐
So funny! I feel the same way about meals and treats. I plan my day around yummy meals and seriously don’t get it when people say they don’t like sweets. I just assume they’ve never had good ones so they don’t know what they are missing out on ๐ I love your meeting makeover strategy! I’m sure that helps meetings to fly by and wouldn’t that make a great reality show?!?! Crashing meetings and giving makeovers – I’d watch that!
That’s an awesome idea for a show! I’ll reach out to TLC! ๐
Hahaha, the makeovers in my mind comment cracked me up!!
I try really hard not to, but sometimes you just can’t help it. Lol I work with a lot of “professionals” who could easily have been nominated for the show what not to wear.
I have actually gotten into the wrong car – twice. Both in the passenger side, once when someone was in the driver’s seat. HORRIFYING. LOL
Oh my gosh! What did you do?! Or what did they say, rather?! lol
Hey Cara! i hate getting behind people that just don’t know how to drive. You can ask your mommy and especially if they don’t know how to use a turn signal. The other day we saw a vehicle only going 5 miles an hour up the mountain and I told your mommy they are going to get somebody killed. I love eating sweets and by the way the candy you made was great. Your mommy can tell you about stories about getting in the wrong car or mistaking ours for somebody else. Love you
Haha it was funny. The kiddos had a good laugh at me over it.
Haha! I totally plan my day around what I’m going to eat too. Skipping meals just doesn’t exist for me. I’ve def walked up to the car in a parking lot thinking it was mine…on more than one occasion. Also…it drives me freakin nuts when people turn without using their blinkers!
Yeah me neither. If I have to live life hungry, I might as well not be here. lol
I love this post! I also, will make people over when I’m supposed to be concentrating on other things. And I can’t stand when people don’t use their signals!
Thank-you! And then it’s like how do you politely tell someone you would look amazing if you cut three inches off your hair! haha I have politely suggested colors for people to wear that would look good on them.. ๐
The car incident…has happened to me a couple of times! Thankfully no one witnessed it. LOL! The meme with the apple and Reese’s cracked me up!
xo, Lily
Beauty With Lily๏ปฟ
Haha yeah I was thankful nobody was around. And haven’t we all had those times where we change our mine in the checkout line? lol
I agree with you on planning my day around food. I only skip a meal if I am feeling sick to my stomach. Other than that…bring on the food. I too hate when people do not use their turn signals. Texas drivers are the worst at not using their turn signals. So you literally have to stay a good bit behind the person in front of you due to that reason. Ugh!
VA drivers must be similar, they’re horrible for not signaling. I get so agitated lol
Yes! I have been waiting for this post! With the first 3 confessions, I swore you were describing me! haha! I also agree with the pet peeve! My husband is lazy when it comes to clicking a signal, and it drives me bananas when I ride with him!
Haha yes, I’m like just signal! It’s not hard!
Haha, I’ve done that with my car before. I can’t stand when people don’t use signals either! It’s really not that hard and it’s what your supposed to do! I’m cracking up at your funnies ๐ Beautifully Candid
Glad you enjoyed them! ๐
Oh my gosh, I totally plan my day around food and I’m not ashamed about it at all. As we’re eating lunch I always ask my husband what he wants for dinner and it drives him crazy hahaha. I blank on my age all the time these days. I genuinely forget how old I am because I stopped counting a long time ago hahaha. Hope you are having a great week! XO -Kim
I’m the same way and it bugs my husband too! haha Too funny! I mean food is an important part of the day! ๐
haha – my husband has done that with our car. I just stood back & watched how long it took for him to realize it wasn’t ours.
I ALWAYS am forgetting how old I am. I have to do math a lot of times.
Lol, that’s funny that you just let him figure it out… I was seriously so embarrassed yet glad no one was around to witness it except my two kiddos. I’m pretty sure they thought I was nuts. ๐
Hi! When you said you have to live a little I totally agree! Life is too short never to treat yourself. I have also done the same thing with my car (your not alone.) The lion with coconut oil was fab. Happy Wednesday. K.
Lol that one cracked me up too! Thank-you!
Whenever someone tells me that they don’t like sweets, I’m always like really?? How can you not love cake? I don’t get it at all. Yeah, I never forget to eat and it totally shows. haha Food is always on my brain.
Lol, it’s one of the mysteries of the world for me.. Like a. how do you forget to eat and b. how do you not like sweets? Thanks for commenting! ๐
forget to eat? i’m thinking about my next meal as i’m eating my current one LOL
Yeah me too! Haha and probably already thinking about what I’ll have/fix tomorrow.
SAME with people who say that they forgot to eat. Like…HOW?
Haha I plan my whole day out according to what I’ll eat and when..
I don’t believe anyone who says they don’t like cake either. Or the ones that scratch off the frosting in disgust, because they are the ones that eat only the frosting at home.
I can’t stand it when someone doesn’t signal, why is it so hard to show me where you are headed?
Love the pics below, especially the “Decisions have been made”!
Very fun post! Thank you
Haha glad you enjoyed it! I’m pretty sure we’ve all changed our minds once or twice in the checkout line! ๐
lol, I had a whole year that I went on saying I was a year older than I really was. And then I actually turned that age and thought: darn, I’m going to be 27 two years in a row ๐
Haha then you wonder if some people think you are stretching the truth! ๐ Lol oh well it happens!
I’m one of those people who can forget to eat. It makes me THE WORST to be with because people don’t understand or worse yet feel like it’s intentional! I took my staff to a conference two weeks and had to tell them to remind me to feed them!
Oh no! Ya gotta make time to eat! ๐
Haha I’ve totally forgotten how old I am before. I try not to say my age out loud too often (even though it doesn’t bother me at all) so I always forget! And yes to signals. SO annoying!! <3, Pamela Sequins & Sea Breezes
Now I don’t feel as bad. haha You get asked all the time when you’re younger and are in school but as an adult it’s not something that comes up very often! ๐
It’s funny because I forget how old I am all the time. Like the same kind of deal, someone will ask me and I will just blank. I really enjoy your blog! Looks so great!
Haha happy to hear I’m not the only one! Thank-you! ๐
I came into the world hungry and I will go out hungry. Throw out an age. Gets to point it doesn’t matter.
Haha you have to enjoy life while you’re here! ๐
I don’t trust people that say they don’t like sweets either! It is one thing to be avoiding them because you are trying to lose weight or some health reason….but to flat out say you never crave them or want them? Yeah, no. Not buying it. And I have totally walked up to the wrong car before!!! To the point of trying to put the key in the door wondering why my remote wasn’t working either. hahaha. It happens!
Lol, I was so glad that the owner and/or nobody else was in the parking lot to see that occur, though. I was pretty happy that it wasn’t my scratched up door haha. ๐
