My Monday Afternoon/Evening

My Monday afternoon into evening was spent with several hundred of my closest friends in a hot, sweaty, hot, jammed, hot hallway. Did I mention it was hot?

About 4:40 right after Apes had left the tornado sirens went off. I am used to weird noises in our hallway and I assumed that the Resp Lab was doing work on their dummies. I peeked over my desk and saw that the lab was shut and dark. Hmm... And the the announcement came over the loud speaker to go to our safe spot. Mike Prangley would have been proud!!

So I got to spend over an hour with this long hallway of people. What cracked me up was how each dept and their students all stood together!! The funniest thing was that at 5:25, 10 mins after the tornado warning expired, I got one of our Text Alerts that I should seek shelter. Um.. really?

And as a tag line to this story, because this just made me laugh so hard that I want to preserve it here... Here is the emails that went back and forth this morning from my "Little Brother" Tyler and I. (p.s. he's getting married June 26!! stay tuned!!)

T-So, I got stuck in Ivy Hall for over an hour because of the tornadoes… didn’t even get to finish what I was on campus to do. I have to return to get my id badge…

C-I wondered if you were still here! I should have texted you to see! I was at the end of the hall by the grand hallway and merciful heavens was it HOTT!! I didn’t think things could get any worse until Yoder showed up and started bothering me. I was praying for the tornado to take me or the second coming!!! :)

T-I was down the hallway a little bit sitting with my neighbor from home. I did see Yoder walking up and down the hall and I’m very sorry I wasn’t around to be “all over you” to give him the hint. haha

C-Ewwww.. I think I just threw up in my mouth a little bit!!

T-Throw up every day when he makes “googly eyes” at you or be awkward for 5 minutes? Pick your poison…

C- Valid Point.

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

It's me, Charity
