Twas the night (night) before Christmas....

And all through my apt, all you can hear is the sound of sleet and freezing rain.

Its been wonderful weather in Indiana lately... Our high on Sunday was 4, with 40 mph winds, which resulted in a wind chill of -20. At that point I was wondering if PCC was hiring because going back to Florida was sounding like a better and better idea.

Thankfully we've had a HEAT WAVE and it was a whopping 22 yesterday!! WOOT!! Now we're dealing with ice, and sleet and freezing rain which is really fun. I barely made it to the parking garage today without killing myself an injuring my ankle worse.. I slipped and almost fell twice. Needless to say my ankle was a tad swollen when I got home. Lovely.

Tomorrow I have to work untill 5, yes I know, a travesty on Christmas eve!! And then I will make the trek home to my parents farm. That night will be busy with wrapping presents (i ran out of wrapping paper!) and cooking. Yes, I just said cooking. I am making a chocolate eclair dessert for christmas dinner and Mom and I are going to attempt to make these fabulous rolls that my boss had at our holiday luncheon last week. I swear, these rolls are to DIE FOR!! I think I could possibly live off of them alone. Can you tell I love bread???!!

Thankfully I have a lot of stuff to do at work tomorrow so hopefully the day should go by quickly. End of semester grades are supposed to be posted tonight but we're not sure how well it will go with the new system. So I'm slightly dreading all of the calls I wil be getting... We've had 9 calls in two days. Its been glorious! And 4 of those calls were from my co workers checking in on us.. :) I love them!!

I am looking forward to this week and next week. Four day weekends both weeks. Can't beat that!! I am spending New Years eve with Katie and her two little boys. SO that wll be alot of fun!! And after that weather permitting I will probably head to my parents again for a few days. I don't go home that much, especially in the winter so I want to spend as much time with them as possible.

IN other news I am seriously looking forward to my 27'th birthday!! As long as I forget the fact that i'm turning 27, that is.. :) Kim is coming for it that Weds night. Thursday we are going to Indy to shop, and we're meeting Zoie for dinner! YAYS!! Friday I don't know what we're doing other than going to see Confessions of a Shopaholic!! We both read the book, heck i have the whole series almost! So we're super excited to go see it together!! And then that night I'm going to get a group of my friends and we're going out for dinner to celebrate!! Soooo excited!! I love any chance to get all of my friends together!! SO I am really looking forward to that. I cannot wait to see Kim!!!

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
