Chic Boutique Bow Winner Announced + School Update

Alright everyone, I hope you are all as excited to find out the winner of an adorable Chic Boutique Bow as I am, so I've reposted the widget below.  It seems like the giveaway post kind of got lost in among all of my Influenster challenge posts, for which I genuinely apologize for those of you who visited The Air Force Wife and were like "What the heck is going on, where is RACHEL!?  Buried some place under one of these review posts!??"  Not to start off on a bunny trail this early in the morning, but in addition to sending out VoxBoxes for review, Influenster also does brand challenges where you promote a brand in a few particular ways and can qualify to earn free products from the brands you promote...I'm really keeping my fingers crossed for the Hawaiian Tropic sunscreen - love that stuff!

Anyways, it wouldn't be right for me to simply post the winner...you guys need a little bit of edge-of-your-seat, intense suspense in your lives, and guess what?  You're in luck.  I'm going to ramble.  And stall.  And perhapsy just ramble some more (if you're feeling that lucky).  Can you tell I'm tired?  Like dead tired?  If your answer is no, maybe it's because you can't see me.  I really should record me typing up a post with my webcam sometime so you all can see this wonderful process.  Typically I will get up, get distracted, come back half an hour later, finish typing, reread, reread again, check for spelling/grammar issues, preview, reread one last time, and then submit.  Well, this morning I'm literally just sitting here like a freaking lump on a log.  I may or may not tip over, fall off of my spinny office chair,  and instantaneously fall asleep when I hit the carpet.  Hubs has been getting me up before he leaves for work every day.  Did I mention that he is done with being on wash crew so he goes in at 0700 instead of 0800 now?  We also live an hour from the base.  That puts him leaving here at around 5:30.  I usually feel pretty peppy and accomplished if I'm even up before 0900.  But I have got to get school finished guys.  I am down to the wire now, and in all honesty, I'm probably going to have to purchase an extension *insert super duper sluper cooper pooper any other rhyming words sad face here*.  Not that I should be complaining - I mean MyCAA did completely cover the cost of my course, I have just been so caught up with everything but school that I am now finding myself with only 50 days of access left to the course and 246 projected hours until completion.  Plus the final exam.  But, I am in luck because there is currently a military spouse promotion going on over at Career Step where I can purchase a 4-month extension for $50 less than it normally is.  All of that to say that I have been getting up at the flipping butt crack of dawn, drinking 10+ cups of coffee per day, and working on school from before the sun is even up in the morning until the sun is down at night.  It sucks!  So please forgive me for being kind of negligent in regards to The Air Force Wife...

Dear Real Life,
Is it really necessary for you to get in the way of my blogging, Tweeting, Facebooking fantasy land?  Why you gotta do me like that??

Anyways, I don't have anything else to use as a staller topic, so here is the winner:



Congrats, Kristina!
