Weekend Wrap-up

Hold the fort and hold the phone! Not only am I doing my first ever Weekend Wrap-up but I'm blogging twice in a week for the first time in a looonnnggg time! Whoever said the Summer was a relaxed slow time was obviously not a Piano teacher! My summer schedule has been INSANE! Most days I barely know whether I am coming or going. Or WHO is coming and WHEN! Thankfully with my whiteboard and phone calendar I have not been caught unawares for any lessons. yet..

 Fridays have become crazy days for me, and this is now the standard, but I had something I was very much looking forward to on friday! One of my students was set up at a garage sale with a little snack shop! I told her I would come over during a teaching break, so I did and got so many yummy treats!
I'm not sure who was more excited, me or her! As it was I should have bought all of their carmel corn it was sooo good! The pink lemonade, amish cookies, brownies and kettle corn weren't too shabby either!

 I looked around while I was there and scored some great deals for my nephew and something for my SIL! I was pretty excited!

 After that fun I made a quick stop at Meijer to pick up my 4 free bottles of Langers Juice that I had coupons for. I was pretty excited to find out they made Pineapple juice. My family has a punch drink recipe that we like to have which includes pineapple juice, so i got 3 bottles of it.

 And then I came back home and taught until 8 pm.

 I'm not sure if it was the teaching late or what but Friday night I was not tired AT ALL. I was still wide awake at midnight watching Major Crimes. I finally made myself go to bed at 1:30. And glory of glory Saturday morning I slept in! Well, I woke up early and then forced myself to go back to sleep. It was amazing not to have to set an alarm or get up and figure out how much time i had free before i needed to get ready to teach. I spent the entire day in my pj's reading, and watching Crossing Jordan. That evening I made some super yummy burgers on my george forman grill.. mmm mmmm MMMM!!!!

 Sunday I was so happy to be back at my church! I have been at the Farm twice in the past month, and at a different church last week, so it was great to be back at my home church! After church I came home and had another one of my yummy hamburgers. I might have over done the fixins a bit...
Yet another way I am like my Dad :)

 After lunch I got hit by the cleaning bug and vacuumed my entire downstairs. I even broke out the attachments and cleaned my couch, and one of the air vents that I saw, along with some baseboards. My Mom would be proud!

 And now I plan on relaxing on my couch. I've got a killer headache for some reason. I actually saw my eye dr last Monday and found out that i was wearing too high of a prescription. So he lowered it a bit and that he tremendously helped with my having to squint to see things. (I thought I was going blind) it's helped with the headaches I've been getting as well, but not this one. Boo.

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
