Target, You're Dead To Me

Dear Target,

I know that I've been a faithful consumer since my toddlerhood, and I know that you think you're doing the right thing, but you're WRONG. I can't submit my sons to potential assault or even rape just to appease the less than 1% of the United States Population. I'd rather shop at Walmart. And I greatly dislike Walmart.

You're officially dead to me.

Love, Mackenzie

UPDATE 5/25/16----Josh just told me about a statement made by the CEO of Target, a company who is suffering great financial losses due to the ridiculous bathroom policies, who claims the loss in profit is not based on the blatant disregard for human safety but climate change.
CLIMATE CHANGE?!
Are you KIDDING me???
This, ladies and gentleman, is the face of an idiot.

YouTube Channel

I've decided that once this little blog is done, I'm going to start a new YouTube channel! I'm going to spend the next nine months or so planning things for it. I've been thinking of what to name it, but I don't know what to call it... I struggle with naming things, but I know I'll figure it out. I'll post the name of my YouTube channel info next February 15th!
I know it might not be popular, but I'm going to do it anyway.


Love, Mackenzie

Midnight Snackin'

When Josh and I were first married, my favorite midnight snack was peanut butter and jelly sandwich with a small cup of milk. When I had kids, my favorite was cereal, more specifically corn flakes and rice krispies. Lately, I've been loving half a quesadilla, with chili powder, garlic powder and salt sprinkled on it. YUM is all I can say.
And if you weren't supposed to eat midnight snacks, why is there a light in the fridge???

Trying To Organize

I've suddenly had the desire to organize everything in sight at my house. We have so much junk, its taking over our lives!

We've been slowly working on the garage in hopes that it'll help, and we've been using refinishing our dining table as an excuse to work on it. It's only a one car and we've needed things to get off the floor and into a DI box or put on a shelf or just plainly thrown out to make room. 

Once that's done, we'll work on reorganizing the upstairs closets. All four of them have been crazy unorganized since we moved in and I've had ENOUGH. I function so much better when everything has it's place and I know that when it's all done, I'll feel so much better, but it's challenging to get the motivation at the end of the day to work on something like that. 

I didn't think it would be that hard until we started on the garage... It looks worse than it did, but we've actually gotten rid of a lot of stuff that was taking up valuable storage bucket space, so I guess we are making progress there.

Hopefully we can get this sorted out soon before it really flies out of control.

Happy Mother's Day!

Mother's day at the Packer house is interesting. Josh thinks that a bouquet is a waste since the flowers are dying as we speak, he thinks that chocolates are more reasonable since they provide some sort of nourishment, so generally he asks me if I want any special snacks that I normally don't buy. I chose Flamin' Hot Cheetos and strawberry Pocky. YUM.


But anyway, I'd like to give a shoutout to the two mom's in my life, my mother Laurel and my mother-in-law Mary Ann. I love having women like you in my life supporting and loving me!

Love, Mackenzie
