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 week was rather lackluster, because I came down with a sickness on Monday and was down for the count Monday and Tuesday. I was super annoyed, because I had not taken a sick day since May and I was really trying to make it to 2019 without that happening! Boo!  My new coffee maker came in the mail, and it is so cute! It's like a miniature coffee maker, only makes 4 cups. It's adorable.  My nephew's 4'th Birthday present came as well. And I was a little concerned at the size of the box. Thankfully it wasn't as large as it appeared, but still a decent size!  Wednesday I rejoined life after being sick and ran out to get some free stix from Hotbox pizza and look what I saw!!!! A New DD is coming much closer to my house!! OH I was SO EXCITED!!!!!!  That afternoon I was working on getting all of my Christmas tubs brought inside from the shed, so I could decorate on the weekend. Then I had some cancellations and decided to start. I got the Piano room ...

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!!

Book Review: The Last Dance you Saved by LJ Evans

  Buckle Up Buttercup, because Sadie Hatley is finally getting her story!!!! And it did not disappoint at all! The only thing I didn't like about this book is that it ended. I could have kept reading for 1000 more pages.  L.J. Evans is a Masterclass in how to write Romantic Suspense (that's not so scary you can't sleep at night) with witty banter, heroines who kick butt (figuratively and literally). Her books are full of real people with real problems. And I think that's one of the things I appreciate the most about her writing. Yes, her books are an escape for me, but they also show that whatever you're going through in life, everyone else is also going through something.  In the case of Sadie and Rafe alot of those issues they contained to themselves and kept the hurt and pain inside of them, in order to be strong for others and what they thought they needed to be. But L.J. shows us that not only is it okay to let people in, but the beauty and redemption that come...
