Fill in the Blank Friday

The Little Things We Do Link-Up

1.  When I wake up in the morning, the first thing I do is, feed my cats--lol. They won't let me do ANYTHING until I feed them, so its automatic now.

2.   I can hardly wait for   the new house!.

3.  The quickest way to my heart is   listening to me    because   ....I don't know...I have a complex?

4. A little known fact about me is that    I used to play the drums!! But primarily I suppose I'm more a piano player---I taught myself when I was little. I've been told I have a "piano player's hands" meaning I have looooong fingers.

5. The best part about my job is    I get to help people and they are thankful for it and don't have a sense of entitlement (like they did in my last job)

6. Something I just couldn't live without is    eye liner. BLACK.

7.  Something useful that I wish I knew how to do is  dance. I'm awful. Okay, I apparently have a complex about a lot of things!

Linking up with "the little things we do" this week:

1.  The highlight of my week was  winning/(using today) a FREE paid time off day!

2.   If I had to classify my interior design aesthetic it would be   well depends on my mood--how about modern country chic?

3.  My first vehicle was   a turquoise Chevy Beretta--can't remember the year. The whole car shook like a bowl full of jelly if you went over 50 mph.

4. An item I need to have in my day in order to function is coffee and FiberOne cereal bars.

5. My favorite way to waste time is  by reading different blogs start to finish :) I know, creepy, right?

6. Right now I could really go for   a mango smoothie.

7.  This weekend I will be  cleaning and organizing probably!

What I'm Loving Wednesday!

YAY HUMP DAY!!! 

Linking up with Jamie for this weekly ritual:

 

This cute little golf bag birdhouse my parents got the hubby for his birthday:

These adorable little birdies I picked up at Dollar General today for $2 each:

Welch's Grape Juice. I LOVE grape juice. Could drink it all day. LOVE communion hah :)

Special K Blueberry Crisps---these things are soooo good and addicting. They remind me of blueberry poptarts. 

Tea infuser

Finally used my tea infuser for the first time! I've had this cute little kit for quite some time (got it from the beyond amazing World Market) but have just been plain lazy with my tea and using tea bags. Yes, I am BOTH a coffee AND tea person. Yum. I had a period of time last year where my doctor restricted me because he thought there was something wrong with my heart. So in between that day and the day about a MONTH later when I saw my heart specialist I could not have any caffeine (which includes chocolate), alcohol, limit stress and limit exercise. It.was.awful. Mostly because I didn't know what was going to happen, though. Honestly, I'm still not entirely sure what the deal is, but my "issues" have been minimal since that time and the heart specialist told me to go ahead and get back to my life and just let him know if "other" things happened. So ANYWHO....

Look! Ain't it cute?????!

Just another lovely Ice Storm...

We had another ice storm here last night. Luckily, it was nothing near like the ice storm we had last year, but its still pretty bad. Our roads are just caked in ice. So pretty though! We didn't have to go out in it at all last night but I guess for those who did, some were stranded for up to five hours on the roads and many out-of-towners had to find a place to stay in town overnight. Now, my town isn't the largest in the world, but its not itty-bitty (like my hometown of 300, lol) either. I think there's maybe 15,000 people? I dunno, but anyway, the state police was saying this morning that there were literally hundreds of accidents last night in and around our town, due to the weather. Yikes! I'm so happy I stayed in and watched Teen Mom 2 on Netflix last night haha!

This is one of the roads that surrounds our house--and no, that is NOT water. Pure ice, baby!

Welp, I think I am off to bake some muffins! :)

What I'm Loving Wednesday!

Okay well, my first time doing this so hopefully I didn't goof it up, lol!

What I'm loving today......

This CD--ya know, the song from the movie Fireproof? Check 'er out!

 That's a great movie, too, by the way--if you haven't seen it you should watch it!

Not too many pages in, but this is really good so far--would probably make for a good summer read!

I seriously probably eat wayyyyyyyyy too many of these. But they are so yummy.

Such a great ensemble--wish I could wear cute stuff like this to work!

Hah....Psycho anyone?

So cute! Can't wait until my hair is long again!

Oh how I do love books and libraries....

 

Monday Monday

Well, today was the last day of my three-day weekend. Back to work tomorrow, BOO. I didn't really accomplish much today, felt pretty restless actually. We are back to having 50-degree days here again (after last week's one-day snowstorm), and I think its made me restless. I'm ready to hit the trails. Its so much easier for me to exercise outside. And prettier. I got bored today and decided to take off and take some pictures. Then I remembered I left my camera at home...hah. But I took a few around the house....

Kitty, not impressed by Hello Kitty footy pajamas.

Kitty, reacting to flash of the camera.

Kitty, now in love with Hello Kitty footy pajamas.

"I made this"

WELL, my hubby liked it...

Hugs 'n' Kissies

January sunset. Purty.
