And now, in no particular order...

Is it Miss America that uses that phrase before announcing the top 10? Who knows! But for whatever reason, lack of caffeine possibly, that phrase is stuck in my mind. So now in no particular order here are some random snap shots of the past month!

 I love that my house has a large window in the living room. It makes for great people/neighborhood watching while I'm waiting for students. Remember this when you get to the bottom of this post.
 One day some stranger with straight hair stole my phone and took pictures of herself! Oh wait, that was me. I cut my hair too short and decided to straighten it so people would be distracted by that and not the shortness.
 Another day (before the hairs cutting) I  resembled a Duggar. Just call me Jarity!!
 One of my students went on vacation and gave me this ADORABLE little Cherrybear Cherry Honey!! Isn't that the cutest thing ever?! I about died! I mixed it with butter and it's sooo yummy on my toast and bagels!
 Sept 11. I basically looked like an American Flag, but I wanted to be loud and proud for my country on that day!
 I have been wearing my glasses quite frequently as of late. Between my allergies and being on my last pair of contacts, 4 eyes is where it's at!
 Cubbie came over one night for dinner! We weren't twins since my hair was straight, but I think he still loved me :)
 He brought his Mommy Audie with him as well!
 While I was finishing up dinner, Cubbie was looking out the kitchen door at my backyard and went CRAZY when he saw my huge unknown animal that has been lurking around. Audie and I both may have shrieked a little bit when it got a little too close to the patio for comfort! After some googling it was determined that I have a very LARGE Groundhog. not.a.fan. My Mom suggested sprinkling pepper around my shed and patio, as animals don't like pepper (gets in their eyes) so the next day that is exactly what I did!
 Earlier this week I had just gotten out of the shower and was sitting on my couch and I kept hearing a weird noise through my opened living room window, and out of the corner of my glasses i could see a flash of something. It was in the morning on a school day, so there shouldn't have been kids around. I finally skulked over to the door when i heard the noise and saw this HUGE bird out in the road, eating what I sincerely hope and pray was one of the bunnies that also terrorizes my back yard.
I tried to get a better picture of him, but he had excellent hearing! I snapped this as he was flying away. He hung out there all day long, and was still flying about when one of my evening students arrived for her lesson. Needless to say she BOOKED it out of my house and into her parents van!

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
