End of the Month Phone Dump

 i.e. if I don't blog them now I never will!

I went to Menards a few weeks ago and they are now selling hair care. HAIR CARE PEOPLE. At Menards!!! Why they didn't sell cool stuff like this when I was growing up I will never know. Everytime we would come to town I would stay in the van and read my Archie comic books when my Mom went into Menards. Had they sold the cool things they do now I would have went in happily!!
 Despite the fact that it's still warm outside I have been transitioning the studio and my home into Fall. I love my little pumpkin lights!! And my other little pumpkin, Farmer Snugglemuffin :)
 Are they not the cutest??!
 By my front door I put up this sign and little box, which miraculously holds my sunglasses and lip gloss! You might have noticed by the mirror hanging by my door I always slap on lipstick/gloss on the way out. Or as I'm standing waiting for a student. I loved that I could clean them up with this decorative little scarecrow box!
 The Piano. Two different kinds of hand sanitizer has still not kept me from getting sick. I am currently sounding like a Man Frog with a super fun cold that I have had all.weekend.long. not a fan!
 I love this little box that I picked up at Gordman's! It has a hinge and opens. Inside I have my Pumpkin Play it Again slips. My students LOVE being able to pull out a pumpkin (with their eyes closed of course!) that tells them how to play their song again, often in a silly or fun way. Bonus, they have no idea they are learning!!
 I really wanted to put them in my super cute pumpkin jar with handle, but after searching high and low I have come to the conclusion that I left it in the fall decorations at my old job! sadness.
and finally, a sneak peek of my new dresser!!!! It was delivered on the same day that I started getting sick. Needless to say my bedroom has looked like mass chaos ever since. Ok my whole upstairs, has looked like mass chaos because I used to have a huge armoire right in this spot, so It was moved to the spare room and is currently just sitting far enough inside for the door to shut :) I promise I will have a complete blog post soon dedicated to my dumpster diving find!!

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
