7 Quick Takes

1. It is a beautiful fall day outside! Overcast, very windy, and in the 60's, I have my balcony door open and am loving listening to the wind whip through the trees!

2. I have got to get back to a normal sleeping schedule. I have been staying up untill 11:30-Midnight and then I can't get to sleep for hours! SO I sleep in late and sometimes am so exhausted I have to take a nap, which only worsens the whole not getting to sleep at night!

3. Is it me or is Facebook seriously messed up today? Its giving me status updates from last night?!

4. So Happy for my friends who are welcoming their hubbys back from deployment! One just got in the US yesterday and the other is scheduled to arrive soon! Thank you Lord for keeping them safe!!

5. Seriously excited that Cindy found out she is having a baby girl! I would post a picture of her and the tiniest cutest baby bump EVAH, but I think she might just kill me. Can't wait till she has her baby and I am listening to the birth on the phone, just like she and I did years ago when we were at college together and her niece was born!

6. I am having this urge to buy all new fall clothing. It happens every fall, heck everytime the seasons change, I want an entire new wardrobe! Sadly, that isn't going to happen!!

7. I think I'm going to start going Grace in the Small things, once a week, probably on Sundays, and post all of my graces from the entire week. As you can tell I'm struggling doing it everyday!

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
