7/52

 Oh what a week it was! Here goes the Recap!

Monday I counted down 14 days until my Birthday! In honor of Valentine's Day I wore a cute heart scarf!
 A sibling set of students brought me the cutest chocolate chip cookies!! They had HEART SPRINKLES in them!! SO cute and SO yummy!!!!!!!
 Tuesday I celebrated Valentine's Day by going Grocery shopping and taking a nice long hot shower and pampering myself. And of course, Netflix. I also worked on redecorating my sofa table and made a light up cherry blossom tree to go beside it.

 Wednesday I attempted to go Valentine's day 50% shopping, but kind of struck out. At least my hair looked good!


 I did find these cute felt, glitter hearts at DG.
 So Cute!!
 And while Dollar Tree had NOTHING Valentine's Day, I am ready for St Patricks day! How cute are those scarves??!!!
 I might have also got myself a pair of huge sunglasses there as well. Dollar Tree is a great place for cheap sunglasses! I always end up breaking mine somehow, so cheap is best!

 Thursday we were down to 11 days on the Birthday countdown..
 And I was on Day 2 of fancy hair. It really is SOOOOO much quicker to get ready in the morning when you don't have to wash, air dry, and then blowdry your hair!!
 In honor of #TBT I posted these gems in IG.

 And my Birthday Sephora Gift Arrived!!! YAY!!
 Thursday I was wearing my slipper booties.....
 And getting in a work out Teaching on Skype with my stand up "table"
 I found these old pictures of my brother and I as children, when I was randomly going through a memory book.
 I mean, we were cute kids!!
 Friday dawned bright,early, and warm! And despite having my morning cup of coffee I was STRUGGLING. I took myself to Igloo for the largest Vanilla Marshmallow Coke they had. And apparently I wasn't the only one who thought that was a good idea.
 I drank all of this.. And I was STILL tired!!
 Last day of double digits!!
 It majorly warmed up on Friday and I had bare feet....


 And the windows open to teach!! I LOVE it when I can teach with the windows open!!
 This is my, I love teaching with the windows open, but how many times will I have to tell my students to focus and quit looking out the window- face. Spoiler alert, it was a LOT.
 Saturday. Oh Saturday. It was lovely. Until a certain point. I was outside sunning my legs and arms and reading in the near record breaking heat for two glorious hours. then I came inside and took a shower. I started a load of laundry, and baked some chicken nuggets. and in the time it took me to eat said nuggets and watch some netflix, my house FLOODED. ..... AGAIN!! I seriously, looked over to the kitchen and saw standing water and I nearly wept. I was sitting on the opposite side of my couch, right next to the window, or I would have probably noticed it sooner.

Anyways, it was a nightmare. It took me over an hour to clear up the standing water with my carpet cleaner. I quit counting how many times I dumped it after 40... I can't tell you how bad my back and shoulders hurt now!! It's Now Monday afternoon and I am still waiting for the sewer line to have the tree roots dug out.....

After being up a few times over night checking to see if I had any new floods, Church did not happen on Sunday. I needed some things at the store, which I had planned to do after church. So I threw on some non pj's, and put my hair in pig tails and threw a hat over that and hoped I didn't run into anyone I knew. Thankfully, I did not!!

Not a great end to the week. Praying this one is better!!

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
