7 Quick Takes

1. Today I wore a light sweater and jeans. Its almost July and yet it was in the 60's?????!!!! I almost turned my heater on at work. ALMOST.

2. At this time next week I will be in IOWA!!!! Visiting MY NEPHEW!! Well, he'll be in bed when I get there, but minor detail! I am so excited that I've started having trouble getting to sleep at night!! I can't wait!!

3. I'm feeling better about my Sinus Surgery on the 6'th after talking to two people who had it done. Apparently the worst part of it will be the packing. Personally I'm concerned about how they remove it seeing as I'll be awake. Do whatever you want to when I'm knocked out. Not so much a fan of it when I'm awake.. :(

4. After our Bible Study, goodness, a few months ago now, when Whitney talked about being a lady and cleaning up our mouths. I've really been working on getting rid of slang, even if its not a "bad word" I want to avoid that. So now I say, Mercy!! Phooeey, And Sweet Nibbletts!! And my fave from Bryna... Oh nay nay.... the only downside is that now Isound like a 5 year old. :)

5. The daily emails and texts I get from Kim sometimes make me laugh so hard I almost have tears coming out of my eyes. Which only looks weird when you're alone at your desk and someone walks in. Not that that happened to me today or anything.............

6. I got to have lunch with my Katie Marie today and that was really nice!!! Sadly, the Taco Bell new item that we tried did not live up to our expectations. TB is sadly just losing its appeal to me. If only they would bring back the Chicken Ranchero Soft Taco. sniffles...

7. Gas is down to 3.38!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is 1.10 cheaper than it was about a month and a half ago! Not gonna lie, I sang some praise songs when I saw that sign!!!

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
