9/52

Last week we kicked off the week with 1!! day until my birthday! It was also my Grandma's birthday, In heaven, and I spent the day thinking about her a lot.
I got several tops from my parents for my birthday so I wore one of them on Monday.
I got a special package in the mail from my former piano teacher, Dr. E. and I was so excited!!!! I love his care packages of piano books!!
I had to snap a picture and send to my friend Cindy. This was one of our favorite songs in college. (Definitely NOT PCC Approved!) She wanted to hear it so I happily obliged and played a little bit of it on a video for her.
 Nothing like sitting by some festive birthday balloons while one teaches!

 There are no pictures of me on my birthday because I did not shower or put makeup on. and it was kind of wonderful! It was really nice outside so I had the windows open all day long. I got to have a special birthday phone date with Audra and talk to Addie bear! It was wonderful!!

The next day I added a new countdown to my chalkboard.

HA!
 My selfie game as a 36 year old is strong.

 It was still somewhat warm outside, I ran errands and got my allergy shot in the morning and had to come back home and put on a lighter top and sandals. Love the warm burst of weather!

Wednesday also marked 4 years since my Grandma went to Heaven. I spent the day thinking about her, and thanking God that she is healed from the cancer. I played the song I played at her memorial service (It is well) several times that day.

 Sporting another new birthday top!

 One of my students brought me two cookies, unbaked. It was a genius idea. They put the info on how to bake them on the baggie and I could make them then, or put them in the freezer for later. Saturday afternoon I was needing some chocolate so I made them and SWEET MERCY THEY WERE DELICIOUS!! I am still dreaming about those cookies.
 Sunday I was looking like a pirate in another new top. It had really funky sleeves that I never got a great picture of. But it was cute! I also have funky eye liner because I was doing my makeup and my hand slipped and I did an accidental cat eye on one eye. Well. then I had to decide if i should wipe it off or try to do a matching one on the other eye. Y'all. I thought I was possibly going to be late to church fixing my stupid eye. I never fully got it and that's just fine. I was on time to church!
 Sunday afternoon I was getting stuff DONE!! I worked on painting my new shelf I got for my birthday. Its Wednesday night as i'm writing this post and I finally finished the last coat!
Painting is relaxing.

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...

Blue Monday!

Today's Festive Blue Monday outfit! I wore my tried and true trouser jeans, a short sleeved beaded top I got on clearance at Macy's of all places for 6 bucks!! And my awesome new jeweled flats! Sooo comfy and cute! Since it was in the 60's today I was able to get away with this warmer weather outfit! Beading on the top, I love it! Shoes, so ugly they are cute!!

New Bedroom Decor!

 Every Year my SIL outdoes herself with the gifts she gave us the year before. This year was no exception! She made this amazing picture for me. If you look close all of the pieces of the heart are small pictures of me and my friends! I was amazed! I still can't get over it! I just love it so much!  So I decided to hang it above my bed. I don't have a headboard and I have really felt like my room was lacking something to pull it together. I think this picture does it nicely! And yes, I sleep with a stuffed animal. I'm single, don't judge! I also sleep with 5 pillows. I tend to fall out of bed. They are like my bumpers! HA! Seriously though I just love it and it's so neat to look at all the pics of different friends and stages in my life and remember all of the fun memories! Thanks Liz!!
