Craft Night @ Cherry's!

Apes and I had a girls movie night/craft night on Saturday!! She brought over some yummy spaghetti which we enjoyed for dinner and then we attempted to watch a chick flick. I say attempted because we made it 10 mins in and she looked at me and said, Do you want to go get ice cream? I replied, and ditch this horrible movie? um, YES!! I had a clue when there weren't any previews on the DVD that might be a bad sign. Indeed it was!!

So we went to DQ and got some ice cream and sat outside and talked for about two hours untill it got dark. It was SO relaxing!! It was a beautiful evening with a perfect breeze, ice cream and good friends, really what more can you want? Finally around 9 pm we came back to my place and got our craft on!!

Apes took a plain picture frame she had and added beads, rhinestones and a heart with ribbon to accentuate her beautiful bridal shot!! SO pretty!
While I made the most sparkly headbands you can ever imagine!! I made a light blue one for me and a dark blue one for Apes! We both wore them to work today and we call them our Tiara's!!
I made a skinnier silver and sparkly one as well.
The fruits of our labor!!

It was so much fun!! I told my Mom about it and she told me to watch out I was becoming crafty! I think I am!! I like creating things, its the musician in me!! I"m creative! I can't wait to get more headbands and sparkly stuff and go to town!!

The only bad part of this was that I massively burned my thumb with my hot glue gun. I was on the third headband, APES, and I glue onto the stone and went to place the stone on the headband and it slipped from my left hand and fell onto my right thumb. I screamed bloody murder. And yelled out "Rats, Cats and Dirty EYEBALLS!! THAT HURTS!!!!"

Yes, that is my new saying. Anyways, I've got one poor injured thumb. Which I keep reminding Apes of. The sacrifice of my love! :)

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
