A heart full of blessed

Its been a rough few weeks around Cherry Land. I feel like I have been on an emotional rollercoaster, especially the last week.

When you're going through a rough time it is so easy to feel like you are alone and that no one cares, or knows what you are going through.

I feel like this past week especially I have been overwhelmed with love by people in my life, and even those who don't know me that well but know my family. I have been covered in prayers, and I appreciate it SO MUCH. I would have never made it through without the many many people who have been praying for me.

Its almost been overwhelming to see how much my family loves and cares about me. My poor parents were in Iowa visiting my bro and sil while some really bad things happened to me and pretty much ruined their vacation, but yet they loved me and took care of me from afar. I can't tell you how much it meant to me to get all of their encouraging emails telling me how much I was loved, not only by them but by God. My Mom has been a huge rock to me. She is always there to encourage me and lift me up in prayer and also to tell me to SNAP OUT OF IT and Focus on your blessings and think of all the good things in your life.

I was laying in bed last night praying and thinking of all my blessings and wondered how on earth I got so lucky to be born into this wonderful family who loves me no matter what and loves me even when I am un loveable. I am truly blessed SO MUCH.

I love you Mom, Dad, Grams, Kev and Liz!! <3

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
