I love my awful beautiful life!!

Well I was sitting here trying to think of something super exciting to talk about. And I'm still thinking. 45 mins later...

Not many exciting things have been going on in the life of Cherryber... I'm continuing to work every 5 days a week and and looking into joining the co-rec at Purdue next semester and joining some pilates classes.

Its gotten extremely cold here in Indiana, yesterday morning it was in the 20's as I was walking to work. I cannot STAND the cold, and with the time changing its getting dark when I'm leaving work every evening. It makes me want to go home, curl up in a ball and sleep!! My days of staying up past 10 pm on weeknights are gone untill next summer I believe.

Even though it is mind numbingly cold outside I am embracing winter. With it comes two of my favorite holidays, thanksgiving and Christmas!! Both will be spent on my parents farm with my parents, bro and sil. I am very much looking forward to both!!

Kim will not be joining us for Christmas, instead she will be coming for my 27'th Birthday on Feb 27!!! :) I am excited about that. It stretches out the fun and we have spent almost every birthday together for the past 6 years so its kind of our tradition!

I can hardly believe that Thanksgiving is three weeks from tomorrow. I can't wait to go home (I haven't been home since Labor Day!) And sleep in past 6:30 for FOUR STRAIGHT DAYS!! not to mention my mom's home cooking and their cozy, warm fire burning stove!!

Next week is my 90 days here at Purdue. I have yet to hear when my review will be, my boss said she has heard only positive things about me so that is pretty awesome! I am hoping for a raise. When I started they said they had to start me out at a certain point since thats what everyone else starts out as but they could give me a raise at my 90 day. So I am praying thats what happens. Having alittle extra income has been nice and even a dollar more would make a huge difference!!

What I really love is my Flexible Spending account. I can get all the money back that I spend on medicine, dr visits even contact solution! They have a really fast turn around too which is nice.

Needless to say Purdue's insurance is stinking awesome!!!!!!! I love it!! What I don't love is having to find another dentist because mine isn't covered under stupid Delta Dental. Dental insurance is an additive and we just have that so it kind of stinks.

I'm pretty sure this is the most boring blog post ever. Sorry. Hopefully this weekend I will do something fun and fabulous to write about..

Untill then!!

JESUS IS COOL!!!

January Recap

  Tap, Tap, Tap. Is this thing on? No, your eyes aren't deceiving you, I'm back blogging after almost a year of not posting anything. I did a month long Prayer and Fasting with my church and abstained from Social Media (more about that to come) and during that time I realized I really missed blogging! So here I am! Clearly I'm rusty at this because I managed to upload my pictures in the opposite order, and I'm too lazy to go through and move each and every one of them, so we are going to look back at the month of January from the end to the start! Let's go! The Last day of January was a busy one. Well for me at least, after spending most of 2022 on my parents couch, inbetween surgeries, doing anything is busy for me. I had a piano tuning for Old faithful, my new to me baby grand, so I hung out in my bedroom while my tuner was there, and worked on my laptop. Before that I had my 1 year Brow touch up with Marissa at Lafayette Microblading. It had actually been over a

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t

Frugal Friday- (Some) Tips and Tricks on how I get the most bang for my buck

(Shoutout to Ollies for the perfect Picture for this blog post) Remember when it was January and I said I was going to blog more this year? Well, it's now December, and I haven't blogged since January so clearly that goal went out the window.  BUT! I am here blogging today to share something I'm passionate about! And that is SAVING MONEY! And spending the least amount of money on things. Listen, the lower the price of something is, the more I like it.  I was waxing poetic about this subject to a friend on Marco Polo this week and decided that I felt the need to share it with the world. So, world, (or the three people who read my blog) You're Welcome. Sidenote: These are just some of the ways I stretch my dollars and get money back from purchases. Some of these have referral codes that if you join from them I get some sort of a reward, and some don't have codes, or I'm just not cool enough to know where to find them. Use the code, don't use the code, but plea
