Apes and Cherrybear Reunited Again!


Friday night Sherita and I met up with Apes in Champaign, IL for what is now our annual "date" at Olive Garden. I made the misfortune of drinking not a venti but the bigger sized drink at Starbucks before I hit the road for IL. Not my best choice. However I will say that the Very Berry Hibiscus is a very yummy drink! 

Anywho, I was happy to arrive at Olive Garden and even Happier to see my Apes and if possible even happier than that to eat! I had a very light lunch that day in preparation of our date and I was STARVING, or so it felt like when we arrived.

I wish my top hadn't been moved to the side in these pics, it really was a cute top! Anywho I had the Portabello Di Ravioli or something like that and it was beyond yummy! For the first time I think I cleared my plate at OG. That never happens! But like I said, I was STARVING!

We had a great dinner there and then moved to Barnes and Noble where Apes and Sherita showed me that I am a Winter and a Cool color on the color wheel. I am still not entirely sure what that means as they book they were showing me was from the 1980's and none of the ladies in it look like real life people today, but I digress!!

We finally arrived back home after 12:30 am. I didn't hit bed until after 1 am. Needless to say I spent most of Saturday sleeping. This poor 30 year old body just can't handle the late nights like I once used to! It was well worth it though to spend some wonderful time with my April! I am very happy we discovered this half way point for both of us!

I love Jesus & Sephora!!

 I am not a morning person. There are very few things I will get up early for. Friday morning I got up while it was still dark outside. My alarm went off at 6:45 am and let me tell you I have not seen that time for a very very long while! However, something really exciting was happening that morning! Sephora came to Tippecanoe Mall! THATS RIGHT FOLKS SEPHORA!!!!!!!! I love me some Sephora! Yes, it is expensive, but the quality is amazing, and in reality I spend less on Sephora products than trying to find something that works with my wacky skin at the drug store. I have been looking forward to this for weeks. I set my alarm early and ran out the door in a hurry! I got to the mall at 8:02 am. Sephora was opening at 10. I was not the first person there! I was about the 12'th person there and at first we were all smushed into this doorway which was really not comfortable at all. Thankfully the kind people at JcPenney let us inside the store so we could line up outside of Sephor...

Who needs a Knuckle anyway?!

 If you are squeamish and do not like pictures of fingers stitched up, now would be the time to close this post and come back another day!  I put this picture of my struggling get up for my shower first so that no one has to see the stitches if they don't want to. Call me kind :) Also, this get up did not work at keeping my finger dry.  So last night i was opening a box of books, and accidentally opened my knuckle as well. It's funny, it didn't really hurt at the moment. I felt it of course, but it wasn't horrible pain. Blood started gushing and I ran for the bathroom to get some tp on it and bandaids. I do NOT do well with blood and seeing all of it made me a tad bit light headed. I managed to find some gauze and tape and after looking at my finger and noticing that i could see INSIDE my finger and the knuckle skin was WIDE open, I almost passed out. hahahaha.. it was GROSS! I dr'd up my finger and tried to decide if it would heal on it's o...
