42/52

10 Weeks until 2018! 

 Monday was cool and raining buckets, and I loved it! I love a good rainy day where I don't have to be anywhere! I was finally able to wear a new to me shirt that I got yard saleing this summer. I love the pale lavender! It's not a color that I really have much of anything in, but it's very pretty!

 I try to either make food ahead or put something in the crock pot on Mondays and Thursdays. Some cozy soup was perfect for the rainy coolness of monday.
 I also baked some cupcakes that afternoon. Funfetti with my new favorite from scratch chocolate icing. Soooooooooooo good!!
 Wednesday I was up two hours earlier than normal, for the first day of my fall Women's Bible Study! It was in the 40's and super chilly, so I dressed warm.
 I put my puffer vest on before leaving for church. It kept me nice and warm and I can't believe I have went this long in life without a puffer vest.
 I wore boots to church and when I got home I put my slipper boots on. If it's cold outside I am most likely wearing my slipper boots. 
 Thursday was a little bit warmer than Weds, but still chilly. So leggings, tunic, and my long cardigan were the outfit of the day.
 I had 5 students in a row. And I was prepared!!Two drinks, a snack if my blood sugar tanked, contact solution, contact case, and glasses in case my contacts got super dry. (Because my contacts are monthly contacts and I've been wearing them since August.. Contacts are expensive!)
 Annnnd the aftermath!! I kicked off my slippers, took off my cardigan because i was hot. Books strewn about the floor by my chair.
 To do pile on my chair, computer that I used for the last two Skype lessons..
 One drink empty, another drink half empty...
My next to last student came earlier in the day, hence the 5 lessons in a row. So I actually had some time for a decent dinner break and to get some things done before my last student of the day. So I put my NSYNC Holiday station on Pandora, and pulled up Finale Notepad to work on a song for a student.


 The weekend was spent huddled on the couch under a blanket, IT. WAS.COLD. I swear we skipped over fall and went right into winter. Anyways, I was bundled up and watched a lot of tv and read. It was nice! Saturday pm I wasn't feeling so great so I decided to stay home from church on Sunday.

Thankfully Sunday afternoon I was feeling better and working on my Halloween Costume. I had a great idea for a costume, but had the idea a little too late for it to be made. So I went with Plan B! And Plan B was free, so there's that!

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...

Book Review: The moments you were mine by LJ Evans

  Once again I was lucky enough to be on the ARC team for another book by LJ Evans. Since I have discovered LJ she has become one of my top 5 must read authors. LJ’s books are like Christmas Day. Or your birthday if you’re like me and obnoxiously celebrate both. :) You count down the days until it happens with great expectation and excitement and then it gets there and you almost don’t want it to be there because then it will be over and you have to wait another 364 days for the magic to come by again. Thankfully for all of us LJ writes more than one book a year so we are all #blessed in that aspect. I’m always super excited to get and read her books, but it’s a mixed feeling of not wanting to start reading it because then it will be over, and I can’t wait to read it and see what happens. Oh the struggle of being a book lover! I had some FEELINGS over Parker and Fallon. I felt like they were real people and at several points I wished they were real people so I could take t...

Life in Phone Pics

 Can I just say how much I appreciate the fact that my new phone takes so much better pictures than my old one?! I have been using my phone for almost all of my pics! And bonus, no purple hair! Above is a new dessert I made. A Smores Cookie Bar. It was yummy. I had some and then realized I would eat the entire thing if I kept it. So I gave 90% of it away to my students. This just cracked me up. Last weekend when I was elevating my feet I obviously had the lights off and yet my toes were so neon pink that you could still see them in the darkness!  My toes weren't the only thing pink on my body. My sunburn was of an epic proportion. now it has started to peel. Everywhere. Even my arms. yuck. I'll spare you from that! Oh well, at least my hair looked cute here!  Yes, I am really showing you a picture of my cabinet. Last night I decided to totally move all but one of my cabinets. Erm. or rather the insides of them. My dishes and glasses used to be in th...
