Week in Review

This is kind of a jumbled together throw it all in post, but I thought since I have some new reader and people actually commenting! YAYS!! HIiiiiii!!! *waves* I had better start posting a little more often!

So this week has went by slowly for some reason. I am proud to say that after STAR moved to Elliot I have successfully led the group of people to MTW every day this week WITHOUT getting lost. Or taking them to the basement of Elliot. I will however admit that on Monday I did have a brief moment of confusion on which sidewalk to take and started praying furiously for a sign, I looked up and voila University's steeple!! Thank you Purdue for putting a steeple on that building so I know which direction to head. I owe you.

Sadly I have not mastered the art of walking backwards while talking and leading my group. I have three more days to get that down before STAR ends. I am determined DETERMINED to do it. But maybe not tomorrow. We have a huge group and if i fall or trip, i really dont' want to do it in front of 100 people..

I have been faithfully exercising this week. I am back on the wagon!! Tonight I cardio biked 30 miles, which took a little over an hour, and i burned 1301 calories! WOOT! GO ME!! Sadly about 1/3 of those calories were from the Starbucks that Mary and I got this afternoon.

We took a walk to the union for a Starbucks run and the oh so helpful cashier dude (i say this sarcastically) could not tell me the difference between a mocha frauppucino and a blended creme double chocolatey chip frauppucino but he did have the helpful tip of "eat it slowly" rubs belly "it has 1300 calories in it!!" might i mention he gave me a rather POINTED look when he said that. I about slapped him. Thankfully for my sake I didn't like the drink and drank 1/3 of it. If that. Last time I'm adventerous. Seriously that is why I am so routine and always get the same thing when I go places. Anytime I try something different i don't like it!

I know. Tales of my Starbucks experience are pretty darned thrilling. But if you're here reading my blog you're probably not looking for anything that would classify for a pulitzer prize. and if you are. well.. sorry.

And now my dear readers I think I am going to head to bed early. I don't feel that great, haven't all day and the crappy fraup didnt help. Another big day of STAR is upon us tomorrow and then, blessedly, the weekend. Sleep. I am coming. I love you Sleep!!

What a disgrace to Starbucks, the guy couldn't tell you the difference between a mocha and a was was previously known as "java chip." If I remember correctly, one has expresso and one does not-BIG Difference! For shame!

Book Review: The moments you were mine by LJ Evans

  Once again I was lucky enough to be on the ARC team for another book by LJ Evans. Since I have discovered LJ she has become one of my top 5 must read authors. LJ’s books are like Christmas Day. Or your birthday if you’re like me and obnoxiously celebrate both. :) You count down the days until it happens with great expectation and excitement and then it gets there and you almost don’t want it to be there because then it will be over and you have to wait another 364 days for the magic to come by again. Thankfully for all of us LJ writes more than one book a year so we are all #blessed in that aspect. I’m always super excited to get and read her books, but it’s a mixed feeling of not wanting to start reading it because then it will be over, and I can’t wait to read it and see what happens. Oh the struggle of being a book lover! I had some FEELINGS over Parker and Fallon. I felt like they were real people and at several points I wished they were real people so I could take t...

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...

45/52

This week was rather lackluster, because I came down with a sickness on Monday and was down for the count Monday and Tuesday. I was super annoyed, because I had not taken a sick day since May and I was really trying to make it to 2019 without that happening! Boo!  My new coffee maker came in the mail, and it is so cute! It's like a miniature coffee maker, only makes 4 cups. It's adorable.  My nephew's 4'th Birthday present came as well. And I was a little concerned at the size of the box. Thankfully it wasn't as large as it appeared, but still a decent size!  Wednesday I rejoined life after being sick and ran out to get some free stix from Hotbox pizza and look what I saw!!!! A New DD is coming much closer to my house!! OH I was SO EXCITED!!!!!!  That afternoon I was working on getting all of my Christmas tubs brought inside from the shed, so I could decorate on the weekend. Then I had some cancellations and decided to start. I got the Piano room ...
