I had a rough morning today.....

Today did not start out on a good note. I got about 4-5 hours of sleep thanks to the massive storms we had last night. Well really it was like one storm because it felt like it never quit. Half the town is flooded, its really kind of freaky. More about that in a minute.

So I was without a good nights sleep but functioning this morning. Until I walked into my kitchen to make my carnation breakfast blend to take with me to work. (I prefer the rich milk chocolate version in case you are wondering) I walked by my fridge and before I knew what was happening my feet were in the air and I was falling. I tried to grab a hold of a chair from the table to stop my fall, but I only succeeded in stabbing myself with the leg of the chair.

No bueno.

My first thoughts as I laid on the floor were as follows.

1. My skirt had better not be ripped or soaked with this water that I'm laying in, I do not have time to change.

2. I had better not have broken anything because I do not have time to go to the hospital.

Luckily my skirt was only half wet so I decided it was staying on, and I did not break anything. However right now it seriously hurts. Very sore and I'm pretty sure my left thigh is all of the colors of the rainbow!!

So I hobbled off to my truck whimpering all the way. Luckily I did not get chased by my neighbors dog this morning like I did Monday am.

I attempted to make my way to work. Slight problem. The road was flooded. As in flooded so badly there are policemen with flashing lights directing traffic and having people back up.

Fabulous.

So pulled a u-ey and turned around and tried another road. Got a little ways down the second road only to see a familiar sight. Water. Police car. Flashing lights. CRAP!

Another U-ey was pulled and I turned back around wondering exactly how I was supposed to get to work and if God was trying to tell me to stay home. I decided if God wanted me to stay home he'd have to tell my Boss. :) So I struck out on road number three and luckily made it JUST PAST another blockage. Lovely.

I pulled into work at 8:58 and I was exhausted.

Thankfully that was the last of my injuries and stress for the day. But I did whine for a bit about my poor thigh.

So the moral to this story is... I hate water. in all forms. the end.

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
