27/52

 Sliding in on a little recap of last week.

On Monday I was feeling tired by mid afternoon and still had several students to go. So I had a cherry coke and revelled in the knowledge that I had the next two days off and could have caffeine in the middle of the afternoon and not have to worry about when I fell asleep! 

 I have ZERO pictures from the 4'th of July because I spent them in comfy clothes inside in the air conditioning! It was the first two consecutive days I have had off with no plans, nowhere to be, and no one to wait on to arrive at my home. And it. was. GLORIOUS.  My days are very scheduled, I keep one eye on the piano and one eye on the clock during each lesson, not to mention waiting on people to show up, and making sure they leave on time. So to not have to look at a clock or have to wait on anyone or go anywhere was wonderful! It surprises some people, but I really am an introvert. I will be chatty and friendly when I'm with people, but I really need quiet time alone to recharge. Maybe it's a sign of my old age, but two days off with no plans was amazing. 

Thursday I was back to teaching and sporting one more patriotic outfit and some straight hair!

 I had a moment of brilliance while teaching one of my beginner students, and made a "box" for their right hand to go at middle c. It made it so much easier for them to figure out where their hand went after moving it around. I have since laminated the "box" and used it on some other beginner students with success! WHOO HOO!

Friday I woke up and my back was killing me, But thankfully I had another free massage scheduled for that afternoon! My masseuse worked me over and I was in much better shape when I left.
 I went straight to the library with my post massage straight hair pulled back sloppily, to pick up some books on hold and turn in my first sheet for the summer reading program. 140 hours- DONE! Onward to my next goal! I have until the end of July and I'm really trying to crack 200 hours this year.
Sunday it was Team Two's Turn to work Guest Services, so I was up early sporting my ever so attractive orange shirt. Not pictured is the delicious life giving Dunkin Donuts Frozen Mocha Coffee that helped me to be an effective or at least an awake leader. Probably just the latter, but hey!

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

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

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
