What's Happenin' Cherrybear??!

Well if you haven't noticed I've been going through a bit of a blogging slump lately. Things have been SO busy at work with Apes gone, and me being two people now, that by the time I get home I am done.

I have no words or no desire to sit down at a computer and type! Trying to do better at that! Plus really nothing exciting has happened lately. Just a lot of work and gearing up for the beginning of the school year and all that entails.

I've been practicing being the Adult that I am (and would rather not be!) lately and have been cooking some. Unfortunately I am still sticking with my life long issue of finding a food I like and eating it ALL.THE.TIME. This new food I'm eating. Tacos. Tacos with black beans and pinto beans. Leaf Lettuce from Dad's garden along with Tomatoes, sour cream and my new favorite condiment-Ortega's Taco Sauce. It's like a slice from heaven. I swear I could drown the entire taco with that sauce and be a happy camper!

And don't even get my started on my continuous summer love affair of cucumbers. yum.yum.yum.

Lest you think that all I've been doing is eat. Oh wait. hmmm....

I took a break writing this for a few hours and now my brain is back to fried mush!

I have been working on couponing more lately and trying to get better deals.

Unfortunately all the money I saved this week was spent today as I discovered ebay yesterday and am the proud owner of 3 new tags still on pairs of dress pants. This is actually good because I have one, count them ONE pair of dress pants that I can wear in the winter.

My two favorite pairs got holes in the legs so I had my Mom cut them off into capri's because 1.I'm cheap and 2. i hate shopping for dress pants. It annoys me. hopefully these fit. did I also mention that I hate trying clothes on? I think this is probably why I enjoy online shopping. that and no annoying people and crowds.

I don't know how much more I will ebay because the auction of the pants I REALLY REALLY REALLY wanted was today, and almost an hour before it ended someone tried to swoop in and outbid me. Jerk made me pay 2 more dollars than I had it set at! but still though 12.00 for a brand new pair of 40+ pants is a steal. It stressed me out though!! I don't know how much more of that I can take. Unfortunately or rather thankfully my shopping budget is done after today so no more ebaying for awhile. All I can say is that these darn pants had better fit and look good!!

On a totally unrelated note, why is it that when I am sitting at my computer, i.e. sitting on the left side of my couch with my laptop, someone always texts me, and my phone is by my overstuffed chair to the past the right side of my couch. I mean I do live in a one bedroom apt it's not like I'm miles away from it but still though. I think its a conspiracy. And I also think I am dead tired.

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
