Obsessions?? Me??

I debated whether or not to even join this linky, I'm pretty sure if you follow along you already know my obsessions!!




Bonnie over at Living a Wonderful Life is having this obsession linky. She has a really sweet blog and came up with this fun party:)  I have really enjoyed reading everyones posts and all of their obsessions.  It makes me feel so happy I'm not the only one who obsesses over things. 

So what could I be obsessed with, along with all of these other lovely ladies?? Well your here reading my latest obsession!  Blogging. I don't even know how it happened... One day I had a Facebook obsession, which led to my Pinterest obession, which has led me here!!  I guess then it would really be a Social Media obsession!!


Okay next biggie...hmm...what could it be....maybe...surfing??? (Could you hear the Church Lady?)

I really only started surfing about 4 or 5 years ago and it has become more of an addiction, but let's call it an obsession.  I grew up in Colorado and dreamed about summer time and going to a far off tropical places.   Then one day I went and saw this movie:



I was in love with it and told myself someday I would attempt it. Well about 6 years later while living in California I met my significant other and guess what? He was a surfer!  We ended up moving here 10 years ago and everyone surfed...but me:(  I love the beach and hot days and water, but ....ssshhh...don't tell.... I was afraid of the ocean!!  I couldn't even snorkel when I got here! I would start to hyper-ventilate when I saw anything move under the water!!

So I had to teach myself to be comfortable in the water.  Once I got that down I went out and bought myself a surfboard





 and have never looked back!! (Well I guess I have now;)



My final obsession is shopping!!  Not just any shopping, I am a bargain hunter!! It started in highschool with my mother!  We used to spend our weekends scouring thrift stores, flea markets, garage sales for little treasures.  I get so excited when I find out about a new thrift shop or if there is a garage sale going on down the street.  I also love Ross for great buys and TJ Maxx just came to the island!! What do I buy?? Everything...but I am an accessory junkie!! Shoes, scarves, belts, jewelry, hats....I have to continually clean my closets to make room for all my new finds.  Now that I have kids I love it even more!!


Okay there you have it my Obsession Confession!! Head on over to Bonnie's and link up!
