New Book

I bought a new book that caught my eye the other day Flat Belly Diet. It says not a single crunch is required. I'll have to see about that. Actually crunchies are not that bad. Except when ur trainer makes u do 400.
Not ready for a diet but I'm also not ready to buy different size clothes so something has gotta give and soon!

Middle Ground

Before I became a teacher I didn't like my job and loved my social life.
Now that I'm a teacher I love my job and have a tiny social life.

Where is the happy middle?

Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day!

I have never had a mouth dropping Valentine's Day. In years past if I got flowers from a boy then it ranked to be a good day. One day I'd liked to be swept off my feet. Something out of the movies. I know, I know, it's Hollywood. BUT, it would still be very incredible to just have someone amazing once go all out on that special day. Although maybe all it takes is having the right man in your life to make the day extra special.

While I didn't have any romantic Valentine's this year. Mine was very endearing. I had 19 very sweet 6 and 7 year olds who gave me so many gifts - boxes of chocolates, a single cake, stuffed animal, cards and hugs galore. They made it a very special day. One of the fringe benefits of being a teacher.

I need a...

Tonight I was very tempted (still am) to post an add for a roommate.


Rent upstairs in house for free rent and all utilites included for keeping the house clean, general matience, landscaping, taking care of the dogs while I'm at work, and a few cooked meals.



With things being as busy ss they r it would help make life pretty close to perfect! Come home and everything is done so I don't have to do a thing.

Special Day

Today my sister turned 24! Happy Birthday!!! She moved up to Seattle when she got married last year.

Her wedding was one of the best weekends of my life. It was an amazing wedding and so much fun. I still need to blog about it.

Since I could not be up there to celebrate her birthday. I sent her Edible Arrangements. Here r some pictures she sent.












Sorry she sent them that direction and I haven't figured out how to rotate them on my iPhone. I probably just need to download an app.
But, if u turn your head don't they look yummy?

Happy Birthday to you!

Both of my sister's birthdays are coming up. Less than 2 weeks!

I have an idea as to what I'm getting Heather.

My youngest sister Kimberly I am still debating. I need the WOW factor becase she wow'd me with a new iPod last month.
I figured she got me a shirt or something. I was totaly suprised! My old iPod was a first generation nano (that tells u how old it was) that an ex gave me. I ran out of room and was in need of a lot more space. Well baby, I got it!

I'm posting vague ideas of what in thinking... Just in case they read this before their bdays! ;-)

Can u figure it out? Lol

Tick Tock

New Years was a lot of fun and before I knew it the clock struck midnight. We had lots of yummy food and played games.

I cannot believe that it's a new decade. Where is time going? It's scary that being 'middle aged' is not far away.

I wonder what great things will happen during this decade of my life...
