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.

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...

45/52

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 ...

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...
