Just a normal Monday.....

 We had a bit of excitement at work on Monday. I was back in my hole, which is what I call my office, when  I happened to see a news alert about a vehicle going into a pond. Lo and behold the location was right by our building. I hadn't heard any sirens, as I can't hear the outside world from my hole, so I wandered up front.
 My boss and I decided to go check it out. Along with 100+ other people. Still not sure how this person got into the pond...... But two guys eating at steak and shake had to jump into the water and break his window with a crow bar to pull him out and rescue him!!!
 We showed up right as the ambulence was leaving. But the best part was yet to come. that truck had to come out of the water somehow!!! Now I will say I was not thinking Jim's Garage was going to pull this off but I was impressed! Jim's Garage is no joke!!! The little tiny thing in the middle of the picture above. that's the submerged truck.
 And here it comes out of the water! WLFI is filming it close up as you can see.
 And out it went! Again, Jim's Garage.. no joke!!
Here we have Mr Scuba Man with his arm on one of the rescuer's. The rescuer dude actually stood by us watching them get the truck out so we got to hear the first hand recount which was pretty cool.

We still have no clue how you can be driving by Meijer one second and in the pond the next. We're looking forward to more answers on the news tonight and hopefully seeing ourselves! Yes, it doesn't take much for us!!

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!!

9/52

So I'm doing my best to get these weekly wrap up's done on Monday each week. Today has been a DOOZY. It's 9 pm and I am just now sitting down to check email and such. So if this post isn't the most well written, you'll understand once you read next week's wrap up about today!  In happier news we started off last week with my BIIIIRRRTTHHHDAAAYYYYY!!! And nothing says your Birthday like watching One Tree Hill and eating a piece of ice cream cake with lunch. Spoiler alert, I had a piece of Ice Cream cake every single day last week.  The chalkboard was updated, but sadly none of my pictures with said chalkboard looked decent.  I rocked my Be-You-Tiful shirt and a new necklace my Mom had given me.  And then I had a little photo session in the piano room with my balloons. Because, it was my birthday. and I was alone. So why not!  This is pretty much me in a nutshell... :)  Normally, I try to get work done before students arrive...
