Friday Favorites-Birthday Week Edition!


Look at me blogging several times in one week AND joining link ups! What is this craziness?!

Here are some Favorites of the past week and a little week wrap up if you will!



Last Friday it was super warm outside and just gorgeous! I had to teach so I couldn't be outside but the next best thing is teaching with the window open right next to me!
It was so nice to have some fresh air!

Sporting my favorite fake converse shoes and my skinny jeans that are about faded to death!


I started the Birthday countdown on my chalk board! Some of my students made fun of me for this, I did not care! I love my birthday and that is that!

Oh and then Saturday hit. Oh Saturday, you were just the best day EVER. It was a record high of 68 degrees!! IN INDIANA!! IN FEBRUARY!!! GLORIOUS!!!!!!!!!! I spent the entire afternoon outside, and ended up with some tan lines to show!
Sun! OH how I have missed you sun!!!



I love the sun but i don't play around when it comes to my face. Cherrybear doesn't need anymore sun damage on her face! A hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen is a must!!

The glare from my pasty white Casper legs is real. But man did wearing flip flops feel fabulous!!!
I also did some work outside, I finally got a second chair painted for my Kitchen. Two down, two to go!! I need more paint though before the other ones can get painted. 
I discovered I like painting flat and straight things. Those spindles on the back of the chair, NOT.SO.MUCH.
I got the CUTEST birthday surprise in the mail from my Apes.  A super sweet card...
That had a necklace attached to it! How cool is that?! I had never heard of such a thing but I thought it was awesome!
 Saturday Sunny and 68. Wednesday, a Blizzard and 7 inches of snow. Welcome to Indiana.
 I will say it did look pretty as it was falling from the sky.
 And the fact that I didn't have to go anywhere was nice!

 I actually ended up having a snow day off from teaching, which I used to be productive and clean. You know you're an adult when your unexpected free day finds you cleaning and working on projects. I scrubbed my entire Fridge. Not sure how the inside gets so dirty, but it is sparkling clean now!!
 That's right,  I also bought myself balloons. 
 Thankfully the snow started melting the next day, so I had less to clean off. It was a wet, thick and heavy snow. I got my big ol broom out and went to town!
 Needless to say my lower back is NOT happy today, but that's ok. I have a Chiropractic apt next week :)
 I did half of the driveway on the way down to the sidewalk and the sidewalk was basically a river of water disguised with a think layer of snow on top. By the time i finished cleaning it off my feet were wet and I was done. 
Besides, It's going to be in the 50's Saturday and Sunday so the snow will be gone soon. Again, Welcome to Indiana. Where you can have all 4 seasons in the span of just a few days.

That's it for my Friday Favorites!

Tomorrow is my BIRTHDAY! YAY!! Can't wait for the festivities to come!!

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
