Happy New Year!

 New Years eve I was once again privileged to spend with Katie Marie and her family! Originally I was going to babysit so her and the hubs could go out to dinner and then we'd have our movie night but Roberto wasn't feeling well so he stayed in bed and Katie and I had a girls night (with the bubbies) I thought my outfit was cute alo it's really dark in this pic. A blue striped sweater and skinny jeans!
 This year we have a new bubbie to the mix! Ben did great on his first new years and was a great cuddler with me! We had pizza hut, and then watched Made of Honor, one of our fave movies, a reality show on TLC which I just can't even go into. words can't express. seriously. And of course we switched over to Dick Clark's New Year's rockin eve.. This is prolly my fave part of our nye tradition because we make fun of everyone on there, hello lady gaga i'm talking to you! Since we both primarily listen to Christian Music and KLOVE we usually have NO CLUE who these ridiculous people are but it makes for great entertainment!

 By far the funniest thing this year was brought on by a report I saw on CNN earlier that afternoon. I had no clue that once people got to Time Square they went into shutes and were unable to USE THE BATHROOM for the rest of their time there untill midnight. Crazy. Just crazy. Well I had to share that with Katie and much hilarity ensued. Such as Katie's FABULOUS comment about what would happen after the ball dropped "The running of the bladders" oh I laughed and laughed and laughed some more. We were dying. And I will admit that during the 2 hours we watched the show we both went to the bathroom twice. I swear everytime i saw the crowds I just felt like i had to pee. poor poor people..
And don't even get me on Dick Clark. Bless his heart he was as tan as Snooki!

It was super fun and I love that Katie and I can just die laughing over one word or two. The power of a close and long friendship! I look forward to many more New Year's eve's with her!! Happy 2012!!

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
