Sweet NIbbletts, I found an old Diary!!

In preparation of my upcoming move I am deep cleaning my apt. Tonight I found a journal that I started in 1998!! (ack how am I that old??!!) and at the back of it was a lovely list of important standards that I felt my future husband should adhere to. So I'm copying word for awkward word, what I wrote back then.

1. A solid walk with God. Well we start off well at least!
2. A love of children.
3. Music lover, but not opera or metal!
4. Must be sensitive and be able to cry.
5. Must have short nails. Pet Peeve, I still can't deal with men having any whites on their nails.
6. Has to wear decent clothes to church (i.e. no jeans) Ohhh how the mighty have fallen..
7. Has to have a steady job. One would think this would be oh, maybe #3??
8. Has to have an active part and interest in church.
9. Can't have slicked back, greased up hair.
10. Good table manners.
11. Must be cute (to me) and half an inch taller (at least!)
12. Cannot snore!
13. Has to have a good personality.
14. Short hair! (no chin length cuts for my man!)
15. A GREAT sense of humor.
16. Has to put up with my weird spells.
17. Has to be as weird and crazy as me! (no normal, boring guys need apply!) Not sure this is possible?!
18. Can't wear too tight, or too baggy jeans! Ye-Uck!
19. Clean shaven, no goatee, or mustache or beard or anything. This has changed. Partially since I had to put up with a full beard for 4 months with the last dude.
20. Tender yet tough.
21. A late sleeper. Clearly I have my priorities in order!
22. A Basketball fan. Can you tell I'm a Hoosier?
23. Someone who will sing to me. We Kiss in the Shadows? Anyone?
24. Someone who will protect me.

This is hilarious! I love reading old journals and notes from my younger years. Always good for a laugh.

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

It's me, Charity
