Small Teeth

I posted this on my facebook but it was just too funny not to blog about!

I was teaching Piano Lessons Tuesday night and was doing the younger sister "Little C", she asked me what Allegretto meant on the sheet music so we got into what I thought was a fascinating discussion about tempos and Allegro vs Allegretto.

I was really rolling along and she was concentrating and I just had this moment where I was like YES!! I am a PIANO TEACHER BABY!! This is what I was born for! I was really feeling it at that moment. Little C raised her hand and looks at me with the most serious expression. I leaned forward anticipating some great question about musicality, instead she said "Miss Charity? You have really small teeth!"

Um.. Excuse me?

"You have really small teeth.... Have you not noticed that?"

I was flabbergasted.

I asked her if it was a compliment and she did not know what a compliment was. So Big C, her older sister, and I taught her what a compliment was. Well then we also had to clarify what an insult was. After our English and Grammar discussion I turned back to Little C and asked her now knowing what both meant was that comment a Compliment or an Insult?

Dead silence.

Long. Painful Silence.

Finally she turns to me and says "Miss Charity? I'm just going to let you think it was a compliment."

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

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

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
