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!

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...

Blue Monday!

Today's Festive Blue Monday outfit! I wore my tried and true trouser jeans, a short sleeved beaded top I got on clearance at Macy's of all places for 6 bucks!! And my awesome new jeweled flats! Sooo comfy and cute! Since it was in the 60's today I was able to get away with this warmer weather outfit! Beading on the top, I love it! Shoes, so ugly they are cute!!

45/52

This week was rather lackluster, because I came down with a sickness on Monday and was down for the count Monday and Tuesday. I was super annoyed, because I had not taken a sick day since May and I was really trying to make it to 2019 without that happening! Boo! My new coffee maker came in the mail, and it is so cute! It's like a miniature coffee maker, only makes 4 cups. It's adorable. My nephew's 4'th Birthday present came as well. And I was a little concerned at the size of the box. Thankfully it wasn't as large as it appeared, but still a decent size! Wednesday I rejoined life after being sick and ran out to get some free stix from Hotbox pizza and look what I saw!!!! A New DD is coming much closer to my house!! OH I was SO EXCITED!!!!!! That afternoon I was working on getting all of my Christmas tubs brought inside from the shed, so I could decorate on the weekend. Then I had some cancellations and decided to start. I got the Piano room ...

It's me, Charity
