Pretty is as Pretty does

-You go crazy girl! Look at me, I totally switched it up today. I went a little crazy. Instead of the usual Light Plain Cream Cheese I get on my morning bagel...You'll never believe this...I got Scallion Cream Cheese instead! Woo Hoo!

I am busy!!! I am tired!!! I am anxious, and afraid I'll never get anything done! But I did get a lot done yesterday. I applied for 5 more jobs. I've been doing about 5-7 a week. Not too shabby. I've still got two more days to complete everything. However, despite all the anciness and stuff...I have felt pretty great the last couple of days. I mean really great. I think I should start keeping a journal for "that time of the month" because after it's over with, I seem to feel great, and then I'm like, "Huh. I was really depressed for about two weeks there. That was probably what it was." So, that tells me I should still look into being medicated because you just can't spend two weeks depressed, two weeks super great. And I think it makes everyone I know go a little crazy, too.

My sister let me borrow the prettiest dress for one of the events during Jessica's Wedding Weekend Extravaganza. I'm so excited. I've gained a lot of weight, and I will be doing something more proactive about it. But for now, while I'm doing something about it, I can't really do anything about it, ya know? So, pretty is as pretty does. If I feel pretty who the hell cares what anyone else thinks I look like. And, I really like my bridesmaid dress. How many other bridesmaids have you actually heard say that? Thanks a bunch, Jessie! This might be our last formal event together...at least until I get married...IF I ever do. Want to see the past times we were formal together??


Homecoming 1994. Whoa! Look at Jessica's hair!!! Mine was just starting to grow out from the picture after this...


Prom 1993


Ok, not so formal, but we were cute! This must have been Summer 1994.

-Jessica, I just looked up my itinerary, and my layover is in Denver. Weird.

OH didn't you hear? I've added a Picture Burning Ceremony to the wedding. These prom pictures MUST MUST MUST GO!
Nope! The only one I will agree to burning is the K-Mart pictures. But we'd probably cause a bonfire so huge it would burn down the entire forest land of VA.

It takes a brave confident person to share some of those pics. I hope Jessica signed a release or I smell a lawsuit.

Happy Freakin' New Year

Written January 1, 2021, when I tried to start a Wordpress blog , but failed because I'm old and it's too complicated. 2020 and I had a love/hate relationship. I hated seeing what was happening to others and the world. I dealt with my fair share of struggles, but mostly, I think I was the closest to contentment that I've ever been. 1. I LOVED working from home MOMO working from home 2. I felt closer to my family 3. I didn't mind the slower pace and less to do 4. I was able to have a better work/life balance 5. I felt more productive at home and at work 6. I did a couple of home projects - helped my parents landscape my front yard, gave my bedroom a makeover with my sister, and reorganized my pantry with her Before After Pantry Makeover Bedroom Makeover 7. I spent the best summer with my son and dogs at my sister'shouse - laughing, crying, painting rocks, getting to know my fur nieces and nephews (Wall-E, Maggie, Leeloo, and funny, little, Peyton who we lost in...

FYI

Just so you know...my computer is sitting here, on the floor, next to me...at my parent's house!!! Woo Hoo! I've taken the first step in getting it fixed...but alas, there it sits...I'm not the only slacker in the family! Also, I turn 30 in less than 20 days...

End of Summer

Who knew that at 28 years of age I would be writing a post about how I spent my summer. Don't people usually stop talking about their summers after a certain age? Say like, 22? It probably wouldn't be such a big deal to me if I wasn't still a student who doesn't haven't to have a "career" year round. Well, here it is . . . the end of summer. I go back to work on Monday, and school starts on Wednesday. My days of sleeping in, going out, etc are over. I still get every weekend off when Gabby goes to her dad's, but we'll still be a lot more "scheduled" around here. End of summers when I was younger always felt weird because you were sad about the summer being over, but a little excited about going back to school, shopping for school supplies and clothes, thinking about if there'd be a new cute guy in class, getting to see your friends everyday. I have a whole section in my memory that is filed under "Summer". It's my favori...
