— Here’s What I Have to Say —

This morning, when I looked out the window, I saw a gorgeous sunrise. This will make anyone's day start off right! The picture doesn't quite show how stunning the colors were, but you get the idea! Over the weekend we went to Chuck's sister and fiance's house for dinner. They have two very lazy kitties....

1. 2 whole weeks of GiST! I am so proud! 2. Finding out DQ sells mini Blizzards 3. My new red day lilies blooming 4. Being told “Thank You”. It can really go a long way! 5. Finding out that Firefox has a Twitter Add-On.

1. Finding a link to my blog on a big website! Gutsy Girls on (In)Courage 2. A visit from my mom 3. Getting things ready for school – all done with online orientation. It's a big step to go back, but I am very scared excited! 4. Organizing the garage. 5. My hubby fixes things!...

What an honor! I sent the last post I wrote to the people I had mentioned. I wanted them to know that they had touched me. Well, they responded! Check this out! I was floored when I went to the site to do my reading of recent posts and found this! Gutsy Girls on (In)Courage...

1. Sleeping in 2. Lazy days 3. Dinner and hanging out with family 4. Kitties 5. Thunderstorms

1. “Poker Face” by Chris Daughtry 2. Cinnamon Tic Tacs 3. Sitting on the porch with a magazine 4. Dinner and a movie with neighbors 5. Finding out the movie theater near us is quite nice.

For those of you that may be offended by religion and faith or talking about it, here is your warning. This might be a post you want to skip over. ******* *Edited to add*: After writing this, I found that this was a different side of me than I have ever written on here. A...

This was just another funny/cute little picture that popped up when I was trying to get into Twitter. It's not as cute as THIS picture, but it made me smile. Nothing overly exciting. 🙂 I just wanted to share. 🙂

I know my birthday isn't until November, but you can never start thinking about your birthday too early. I am usually thinking about the following year the day after shortly after Christmas! A friend posted a website for places that give you Birthday Freebies! That's right! Free things on your birthday. They will email or...

1. Getting a calculus problem right! (I checked it in the back of the book!) 2. Birthday Freebies 3. Being brave and wearing a skirt yesterday, and knee-length pants today and NOT bringing a sweater to work today. This is a big step for me…I am always cold. But it IS in the 90s outside!...

I know that is a terrible word – blogging – and it isn't really even a word. At least I don't know that Webster's has welcomed it into its family yet. I have spent time over the last year or more reading various blogs. Some personal, some for business, some craft related, some food related…and...

1. Caffeine when I am sleepy 2. Nature's Valley Apple Crisp Granola Bars 3. Sending “Thank You” cards 4. Remembering how much I love Crystal Light 5. Tacos! Hmm….there seems to be a trend beginning. Food appears to make me happy! 🙂

You really need to check out this site I recently came across! It is so funny! It's called Handmade Gone Wrong! I know all of us out there at one time or another have felt like their project was a complete disaster! But I bet they weren't as bad as some of the things found...

1. Evening swim after a nice bike ride. 2. Coming home to my hubby 3. The heater at my desk! 4. Having a sweater handy when I really needed it. 5. So many friendly neighbors!

Did you ever play the card game “Speed” growing up? I played it a lot with my grandma. Well, our friends brought this version of it over and it was so much fun! (Maybe even more fun because I won!) There were 6 of us and we all had a great time playing. Some had...

1. Bike rides at dusk 2. Lightning bugs 3. Ramen Noodles – Chili Flavor 4. The bus ride to work was shorter than I thought it was going to be. 5. Being able to go to a doctor's appointment over my lunch break. How convenient!

Yep. I am back to taking the bus to work. It feels so strange….and lonely. I will miss driving to work with Chuck every day, but I will get back in the groove. There aren't too many people on the bus in the morning, so I'll have to see how many people there are in...

We got ourselves a new TV for our bedroom. It's a flat one and we are going to mount it on the wall. It also has a DVD player in it. I love it! That is all! 🙂

1. New TV 2. Perpetual Commotion 3. Hula Hoops 4. Tile Shopping 5. Lazy Sundays with my hubby watching the “DEA” marathon.

1. Urgent care (I felt like I had a razor blade in my eye and they were all very nice and helpful.) 2. Numbing eye drops – Sweet sweet drops! 3. Naps 4. Having people over for dinner 5. Secret ingredient: Strawberries (we're having an Iron Chef themed dinner!)
