Thankful Thursday | List of Twelve

I have been looking forward to writing this all day. As I sat down outside to write what all I was thankful for, my list kept getting bigger and bigger. Some of it may seem a little superficial but I think it's great to be thankful for big and small things (and yall know that I LOVE the small things)

Thankful Thursday  and Thankful IT'S Thursday

1. That I have a home to come home to, that has a beautiful porch and backyard where I can sit and just breathe in the fresh air. I feel very lucky that Michael and I were able to buy this house so soon in our marriage and am looking forward to fixing it up over the next couple of years.

2. My awesome husband who I haven't got to see much of this week due to his night shift, but who is my favorite person in the whole world. I swear I could stay up for hours just talking to him, laughing at him, and just sitting near him. He makes my life happy. He's also on my good list because my camera comes tomorrow. WOOT WOOT

2. For a job that allows me to change the lives of the students I work with. I'm not saying I'm an expert teacher, or that I'm awesome at what I do. I am still learning every day how to be the best teacher for my now 22 little friends, but I love what I do. Yes I love my weekends and time off too, but there is nothing like doing a bio poem, and reading on the part that says "Who loves" and seeing my name on that piece of paper.

3. Family. Dave getting into his accident this week, although it was minor, just makes me more and more thankful for my family. Everything seems to change as we continue to get older, but the love from family and friends is always a constant. I am thankful for amazing family members who I am so close with and just love dearly.

4. Tilly. I've never been a dog person...yes we owned dogs here and there that I loved as a child, but as an adult I never thought I would be that girl with a dog. Welp, I am and I'm proud of it. When Michael is on nights, she is the best company and the cutest little thing.

5. My friends. From highschool, to sweet college friends/ZTA sisters, and as I like to call them "grown up friends" or friends that I have met since moving to Bay City and starting my teaching career. Whether we get to talk every day because we're right across the hall from eachother (THEBFF), get to see eachother thanks to homework assignments, send emails, texts, or cards back and forth, or just get to meet up every once in a while, I'm just very thankful for those friendships. Quality not Quantity. :)

6. A new baby in my friend family. So happy that my sweet friend had her beautiful little girl, and that the whole happy family is at home and enjoying their new life together. Babies are such a miracle and I just love that my friends are getting to experience that joy and letting me share in it along the way. I love seeing my beautiful friends take on such a precious new role and hope that one day when Michael and I decide it's time, I will be as good of a mom as they are.

7. Stability. The things that I see some of my sweet little friends go through just about breaks my heart. I am thankful that I grew up in a home with people who cared about my well being more than there's, provided for me the needs and wants that I desired, and that Michael and I are able to provide stability for ourselves. That last part may seem a bit obnoxious but is something that I am very thankful for.

8. The weather. I absolutely love the weather right now. Yes I know Texas is bipolor and is cold in the mornings and hot in the afternoons, but I love being able to come outside when I get home and just sit without being drenched in sweat or have 3 layers of clothing on.

9. Flip Flops. Say what?! Yup. I LOVE flip flops. After wearing close-toed shoes all week long because my toes look AWFUL, I am thankful for flip flops. My feet get sufficated when they can't breathe.

10. Dr. Pepper....you guys...this should be expected. I LOVE Dr. Pepper. My local McDonald's has decided that it is not important enough to keep in stock all week....ahhhh....but thankfully my THEBFFFFFF took care of me all week. It has kept me going, especially since I had duty this week.

11. My blogging friends and readers. Thankful you all visit my page and read my random posts. I enjoy reading your blogs and hope mine isn't too boring compared to you all's. I am looking for a new little theme and layout, but give me time as I'm still trying to figure it all out. Thank you for letting me into your worlds and excepting me for the random/weird/crazy person that I am.

12. FRIDAY!!! I can't believe that it is already FRIDAY tomorrow. So much happening tomorrow and this weekend that I am so excited. I do love my weeekends. First....CAMERA...if you have been keeping up with me I ordered my dream camera Monday and it is sitting about an hour away from me waiting to join it's new family. I have to think of a name ASAP. Ideas? Also, Friday's are my favorite days with my little friends. They work so hard all week that I love rewarding them. I take my practice test for my certification this week and although I'm not too thankful for that....I am thankful that I get to do some shopping afterwards and maybe get to see my mom. wootwoot.

This is riduculous but I'm going to share anyways....I came up with 11 things today and HATE odd numbers so I added in another to make 12. Plus I love the number 12. Not that there aren't more things that I'm thankful for, but tried to keep it to a minimum. hehe

Fun story for today....

We are learning about coins this week (today was my observation with my principal) and a student saw the date of a coin and goes...

"this coin is VERY old...it was made in 1997"

and all my other little friends go

"WOW...1997....that is soooooo old".

haha goodness I love them.

 

Ok guys...have to get on with my chore list and finish up my shutterfly book. I hope you each had a Terrific Thursday and have a fantastic Friday.

 

Love, Love, Love

WOW Wednesday minus the WOW....

OK OK..I've been a lazy blogger. But I'm going to blame it on my book (THE HAPPINESS PROJECT) I started on our 11 hour road trip home from Michael's parents house. I had decided to start it and finishing it is on my ToDo List for the month, but that is going to have to change because I have decided to read one chapter a month. You guys...this book is awesome. I've been implementing what she did for the first month, with a little bit of changes because I don't have kids and have a different lifestyle than her...but oh my gosh I am loving it. I feel like a better wife, friend, and person already. Just by taking my life by the horns and doing things my way.

I can't believe that November is already almost over. I went back to my previous blog about my plans for November and had to get my butt in action. Lots going on but really nothing going on all at the same time. I have read 2 books.. (read earlier blogs to find those titles) and have just been enjoying my job and my little life. It has been extra nice. I've been done with my masters for 2 weeks and I feel like a new person. I have more time to cook, do chores around the house, and just be lazy without things looming over my head. I haven't gotten to do that in a year and a half so I'm soaking it all in.

My week has been full of little exciting/crazy events here and there. I'm getting Michael and I ready for our first Christmas as a married couple (wootwoot), my friend had her beautiful baby girl, and then today I get a text from my mom that my little brother (just turned 16 in July) was in a wreck today. Thankfully she put that he was OK because I would have been in my car and on my way home (2 & 1/2 hours away) in a heart beat. Talk about getting your blood pumping first thing in the morning. He's fine, but shaken up, as we all are when something like that happens. Just thankful it was minor and that the damage can be fixed or replaced. We knew it was inevitable that he be in an accident so thankful it was a small one.

I think since I have certain ideas going for certain days (thankful Thursday, Friday letters, Caught My Pinterest Mondays...coming next week) today should just be Random Blogging Wednesday. hehe

I'm off to the store to buy dog food, envelopes, soup, and body wash. Don't you wish you were me. :) Have a happy happy hump day night my friends. Thanks for reading my randomness.

 

p.s- my camera will be here FRIDAY!! How pumped is this girl?! Super pumped!!!

p.s.s- head over to So Shay and you MUST watch the video of her grandparents. It's beautiful and precious all rolled into 5 awesome minutes. And I just love her.

Friday Letters.....ahhhh it's Friday already?!?

Dear Friday, you are here way too soon. Usually I can't wait for you to be here but this week....on my week off....you have arrived before I can believe it. Not cool Friday. Not cool. Dear Husband: I love road tripping on 11 hour road trips with you.  Especially after your shot of 5 hour energy and you turn the station to our favorite songs of the 90's. so thankful to have someone I can have fun with.  Dear thanksgiving food: I'm glad we have become friends. Fried turkey, rolls, and the oh so good stuffing was de-Lish-us. :) Dear family: thanks for making me big and fat, filling my body with nourishment as I go back to school for 4 weeks with my kiddos. Dear 21 little friends: I hope you had a good break. Mrs H missed you and I'm excited to finish out the year with you, especially during our last week together....aka CHRISTMAS WEEK. Dear Dr. P: thank you for being my friend. I just love you to pieces. Dear new clothes, especially my chevron print shirt I have been on a mad hunt for: I'm so glad I found you. I promise to give you lots of attention and will wear you out! Dear week long break: it has been real and it has been nice....actually it has been really nice. You were much needed and came at the right time. I'm glad we had lots of family time and did alot of relaxing. (And shopping) And last but certainly not least Dear blogging friends: thanks for coming along on this journey. This is post number 30. I'm excited to continue learning and am updating my design soon so it's not sooooo boring. Thank you for letting me into your life and being a part of mine 

Love, love, love,

Thankful Thursday on Thanksgiving Day.

This is going to be a weekly goal that I try to do. I love November for a few reasons, but I enjoy the posts on facebook most. I know people get upset and tell people that they should be thankful every day and not just the month of Thanksgiving, but have y’all not noticed the positivity that is floating around facebook…. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT. If it takes a month to roll around for my fb page to look like it does in the mornings, then so be it. But like some of those people, I want to remember to be thankful every day. So Thursdays will be my day. It’s close enough to the weekend but late enough in the week to need the reminder to be THANKFUL!

Luckily, my first thankful Thursday has fallen on Thanksgiving Day and I have way too much to be thankful for.

1. My husband. It has been a fun first 5 months of marriage and I just can’t imagine being anywhere with anyone else than him. I love knowing that we have so much more to look forward to and a lifetime together to do it all. He is my partner, my best friend, and most of all a great husband.

2. Family. Both my own and my husband’s. I love getting to spend time with them, even if it’s not long enough. From hunting, shopping, shooting guns, watching the cooking, helping brine the turkey with sister, lounging around, or just eating….it has been an awesome, relaxing, fun trip. I’m thankful that both of our families are healthy, happy, and here for us to enjoy life with.

3. Life. Life is truly an amazing thing. We go through ups and downs but in the end, it has lead us to where we need to be, right now at this very moment. I am thankful each day is a new day that I get to spend doing what I love to do, with the people I love most.

4. Friends. Without friends the world would be a super boring place. Thankful that I have people who are like my family and that I get to share the joys of life with all of them.

5. Tilly. There is just something about the love of a dog that makes you remember that you are loved. Whether it’s the way they greet you even after 10 minutes of being out of the room or the snuggles they provide when things aren’t going your way.

6. Health. I am thankful for this on many occasions because I know so many that face health issues.

7. Technology. I have been phoneless for a little over a week and finally have a new phone. I didn’t miss it as much as I though and had a little detox session from it because I was on it way too much. But I am thankful that while I am away from my friends and family, I can keep up with them through phone calls, texts, and pictures on facebook. It makes being apart a little more bearable.

8. Security. The men and women who allowed me to celebrate today with my family safe in the comforts of our home.

9.  Dr. Pepper….what?! You knew it would be on here somewhere.

10. This blogging world. I will mention time and time again that I am just beginning and have lots to learn, but I have enjoyed getting to know you all through your blogs, posting things about my life that don’t get lost in a sea of negativity, and that you are all so uplifting in this journey. I am looking forward to learning more and meeting all of you.

Love me some thankful Thursdays. I hope you all had amazing times with your families or loved ones. Thank you for being a part of my world. Here’s to many more years of success, happiness, and thankful Thursdays.

Friday Letters! (love this idea)

Saw this on So Shay and a link up she did so I had to do it, especially since I have been MIA this week. So here goes!!

DEEEEEEEEEEAR Friday (in my best little rascal's voice of course),
I love your stinking guts, you make me want to jump for joy. I especially love this Friday because it is the beginning of the THANKSGIVING BREAK! Dear Michael: Thank you for being an awesome husband this week. You have taken great care of me, although I don't appreciate you making me sleep in the guest bedroom...my cough wasn't THAT bad...OK yes it was. I love that when I say thank you, you say "In sickness and in health".... this is so true. Happy 5 months of wedded bliss partner. Dear Cough/cold/ear ache/whatever you are: you have way worn out your welcome buddy. It is time for you to leave this house and not return for a long time. It has been nice...no wait it has been awful... but you have made me thankful for my health. See ya sucker. Dear 21 little friends: please enjoy your 9 days off but don't forget everything that I have taught you over the past 12 weeks. I will miss you but breaks are good for both of our souls. Dear 10 hour road trip: I am so looking forward to you because it is when I do my best reading and I just love looking at the scenery. Thankfully my husband will be driving so I can do both of those things. I am looking forward to a great week with his family and lots of relaxing, down time. Much needed. Dear new book I just started: woooweee you are so good already and it's only chapter 2. I love getting lost in good books. Thank you grabbing me in and giving me some good reading to do. I love you. Dear new camera that is about to be purchased: I do solemnly swear that I will take the bestest, greatest care of you and give you lots of attention. I will help you make friends with the husband and he will learn to love you too. I will treat you to lots of nice new things, a little at a time. Dear new blogger friends: I am thankful for all 15 of you... (there are 16 followers but one is myself...lame I KNOW). Thanks for reading and commenting when you do. Any advice in the blogging world will be much appreciated as I'm still so new at this. I'm looking forward to learning about all of you and have enjoyed your blogs. 

Have a great weekend and enjoy lots of time with your loved ones. I love reading all of your blogs. Thank you for letting me into your world. 

love, love, love

Hello Sweet, Sweet Weekend....I Have Missed You!

I have a new found love of the weekends, and it's only my first free one from my course work. I have all of my grades turned in for report cards, no school work looming over me, and I am looking forward to enjoying it to the fullest.

My day was full of trying to knock out my migraine and watching movies with my little friends. As first graders, these sweet kids work their tails off trying to keep up with my (and the states) expectations for them. We have little time for us to actually just hang around and talk which is why I love the last day of the six weeks. We watched movies, played in the computer lab, and read books. I am so lucky to have a job where I work with 21 little people who love me no matter what and are always trying to make me feel better. Plus, look at how precious these sweet kiddos are.

Sue, aka MY MOM...love her... knows how to win a girls weekend plans over for sure. Not only do I get to meet up with her, Dave, and Dee in San Marcos for lots of shopping but she booked us this awesome hotel in New Braunfels and I am looking forward to kicking up my feet, sitting by the fire or Guadalupe River and just hanging out. Don't worry, lots of pictures to come in case any of you ever venture that way.

 



Last random thought for the night. I mentioned in my about me about my picky eating habits. If any of you are migraine sufferers like me...you know that they can overtake your whole day, make you loose your appetite, and just stink. Well mine only make certain things sound good...tonight's dinner (for me) was taquitos and mac and cheese...oh yes... my husband is so lucky huh? Don't worry, he is the main cook in our relationship as I hate anything that is not fried or from McDonald's. People always tell me it is going to catch up with me one day, but for now I will enjoy my weird, random eating habits.



 

I hope you each have the best weekends of your life. What are you doing? I'm on the hunt for new clothes that I blogged about a couple blogs back...wish me luck that I don't get weird stares from older women and death stares from the juniors...

Oh the life of a 25 year old.

 

First, Second, Third... Thankful, Thankful, Thankful

OK... wow. Where I do even begin. I have so much to say that my mind is like.. "Write this..well what about this..OK try this one next...don't forget about this one.."

First of all, Shay posting my bridals was just what I needed to start this day. I think I love photography so much because just by looking at a picture, you are taken back to a moment when your heart was just so full of happiness. She sent our wedding pictures the other day and I can't wait until she shares them with you. Not only are the pictures amazing, but Shay...you guys...she is every bit as fabulous as you think, and so much more. We had THE best time and I couldn't be happier with the memories she captured. I am so thankful that through her, you stumbled upon my blog and have stopped in to leave me some comments and just decided that there was something here that interested you. I am looking forward to getting to know each of you and sharing more of myself and the crazy, random, outrageous thoughts that will fill my head from time to time.

These are both Shay's photos... shows you a little more of how amazingly awesome she is

But you guys probably already figured that.

Second... OK so for those of you with like 1000 followers...no laughing...but I am so super pumped to have hit 15 followers tonight. I love celebrating the small things in life and this is something worth celebrating. I appreciate all of the comments and am about to start heading to your blogs and following you all. The comments made my day and helped me know that the things I write are not always crazy or outrageous but things that we all feel or desire. Thank you for sharing your stories with me and for pressing that follow button. Woohoo.

THIRD... I am happy to say that I am officially done completing the course work for my Masters degree in School Counseling. I have submitted everything, completed all the final projects and will just be waiting to walk the stage in December. I am so thankful that I had the opportunity to do it now and that my friend Candace completed it with me. Our husbands have been more than amazing and it is just a good feeling to have that crossed off my bucket list. I love teaching my sweet first graders, but one day I do have hopes of opening up my own office and counseling sweet friends and families that are dealing with difficulties.I am looking forward to seeing what teaching is like without being in school, being married is like without assignments looming over my head, and just getting back to enjoying the little things in life...like the lawn...


Yes.. I did just go there. I got home from school today and Michael decided he was going to mow. We have been having a crazy time with all the fun of being homeowners and so I think it was just some much needed Vitamin C time, a stress relief for him and me. Tilly (my sweet puppy) thoroughly enjoyed herself as she ran laps through all of the leaves that I was raking up. I just love being outside and it was just what we needed to rid our minds of our stresses for a while.....There you go ladies and gentleman the secret to life is to get outside and do some yard work. hehe. My poor husband... he doesn't know what to do with me and He doesn't know I took his picture. OOPS. :)

 

Happy Friday eve friends and new friends. I can't wait to share tomorrow's blog with you. Thanks for stopping in and HAPPY FRIDAY EVE!

 

 

Some Days are Just a "Mismatched Shoes" Kind of Day

My shoe mishap at work just about summed up the past couple of weeks. I am thankful that one of my friends(Kelsie...there is your shout out) pointed it out before my kids got in my class so I had time to think about it how it happened. I could have called Michael to come bring me new shoes, but I decided to just embrace the mishap as a much needed release of my frustrations. It was a sign to my friends that "hey maybe I need an extra boost of prayer tonight". Everyone runs into bumps in the road at some point and right now is my turn.

I won't bore you with details because at the end of the day, the struggles barely matter. What matters is the way we handle them and that the people we love are safe, happy, and loved. I read on Pinterest...(I love that place) a quote that stuck with me...

“If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we'd grab ours back."― Regina Brett

When were so wrapped up in our personal problems, they seem like the biggest thing around. But in compression to what is happening around the world, what we're dealing with at the very moment is just another pebble on the mountain. It doesn't mean that they don't suck, or give us ulcers (like the 4 I have in my mouth) but it reminds us that even though its overwhelming now, it will end and we will be better because of it.

One of my favorite people who will forever old a special place in my heart always says "this too shall pass". And she is more than right. Yes it's overwhelming, yes it's annoying, yes it can overwhelm, out power, and beat us down, but in the end it will pass and through the rain there will be sunshine. We have to go through the bad to appreciate the good. If everything was good all the time, the days in our life that stick out would just be another normal day. Eak. How boring.

I also am thankful that through this rain, a few things have proved to be my umbrella, at least to shake me out of my bad mood for a little while. I walked out to my mailbox today and had two awesome surprises.
1. I received a necklace I had ordered a while back and am so excited to hopefully wear it tomorrow. I love getting things in the mail that isn't a bill or a letter about something else we are missing for the house.
2. My beautiful, awesome photographer sent our wedding cd's and included a cute little heart necklace that has a special meaning to her, but now has a special meaning for me too.

These two things could have shown up at any time, any day this week, but some how they both came today on such a crazy, crazy day. It just shows that there is hope in the storm and that there are people who we can hide under for support. I am so thankful for those people.

I have to share this story because it has been tearing at my heart today...One of my little friends came into the class today and wasn't her perky self. She said "Mrs. Hagg, I have to tell you something very sad. Bella passed away." I remembered that Bella was her dog, but sometimes when my kids tell me these things, I call the parents and they let me know that it was years ago, so I emailed her mom. Well a little later, I saw her walking around the classroom with tears just streaming down her face, so I went and got her and she just cried, telling me she missed Bella already. The other students were so concerned, one even started crying with her, and just kept saying we love you and Bella too L. These little friends who don't even know the dog just wanted their friend to be happy. One of them took her hand and said "come on let's go draw pictures of her" so they went back to her seat. I overheard the tables conversation and it turns out they were all planning Bella's funeral with L. By the end of the day, they had picked out the date, time, preacher (one of my students), songs to play (although L suggested no rap because Bella didn't like rap) and all drew pictures for Bella.

I sit here amazed because of the thoughtfulness and love that they share for L and how they helped to make her happy in her darkest hour. Our friends become like family because of the love they share for us. I am so glad to have my beautiful friends and awesome family.

Through my storm, I know that I am so very lucky.

Good night friends.

BE the Change

I read a quote a while back that really got me thinking tonight, as election ballots are being counted, submitted, and will ultimately determine who our next president of the United States will be. I have truly enjoyed my facebook being lit up with so many political rants because it has given me insight into what my friends believe in, a little break from the normal posts of facebook, and also some things to think about myself.

I have said it before and I will say it a million times over... the negative is so much easier to talk about than the positive. I can't imagine being the president of the United States of America. There are times, like today, when I feel like I can barely get my 21 little friends on the same page as me, much less a huge group of adults, and a whole country. As much as we complain, it is a job that not many people could handle so I commend all the past presidents for attempting to do their part in helping lead our country along, 4 years at a time. I am hoping the next four years will provide hope, positivity across the nation, a more togetherness that we tend to have only on horrible events, particular days, or during election year, and a four years full of new opportunities for me, my loved ones, my little friends, and all of you who are hoping for the same.

Which brings me to today's point... I'll start with my quote...

"Be the change you wish to see in the world"- Mahatma Gandhi



This is probably one of my favorite quotes to think about and process, as each time I see it, I get a different feeling. Tonight, as we are all awaiting to see how our vote pans out against the rest of the US, we have to take a step back. Yes, we all want things from our president and the people we elect into office. We want to feel secure, know that our families will be taken care of as we continue to grow old, feel confident that the men and women who protect our country are taken care of,  knowledge that our country is still a powerhouse like it once was, and also that the future is brighter than ever and not growing dimmer with time. Simple things to ask right? But what are you doing, right now that is affecting those very things. Voting was the first step in being that change, but what else can we do. That is one day out of 365. Are you impacting lives, giving back, being the best you that you can be?

I battle with this on some days because I know that I could be doing more. I want so badly for things to be different in particular areas of my life, but it's easier to make up excuses than find a way to make it work sometimes. I want to make an impact, leave a legacy, and help change the world, one tiny step at a time. So what can we be doing? I challenge you to make a list. What are things that you think could impact yourself, those around you, or later in a life your own little family.

As this election comes and goes, don't sit back and wait for the next four years to pass you by. Do something that will impact your life, your families life, your neighbors life. I would hate to be back, writing on my blog (which I hope, cross my fingers, that I have more than just 4 followers who will read this 4 years from now) the same things that I wrote tonight. What can yo do to give back, make the difference you want to see. BE that change, don't just WISH for it.

I hope that tonight turns out how each of you hope for, and if it doesn't, adjust to the fact that it happened and that it is part of a bigger plan that we will look back on and understand exactly the reasoning for. Enjoy your night friends. Thanks for reading and spending some time with my thoughts tonight. I am so thankful that some how, at some point, we crossed paths and that you are a part of my life. Friends make the world go round.

Just a little video to help you ease into tonight and on into a new day tomorrow. Love this one and the song.

Love, love love.

Stuck between Junior and Woman

Being 25 has been fun. It seems like I've lived a lifetime, even though I'm only a quarter of a century old. There is so much still left to life but I feel like I've already accomplished so much. I also like being able to tell my kids I am 25 and not 24. It just seems like an older more mature age, even though I know people say "age is just a number". So why is it that at such a fun age, I'm having the issue of where to shop and what I should wear.

Hear me out.... I went shopping today. Something I haven't done in a while for a couple of different reasons but I was reminded of one of the main reasons when I was walking around forever 21 and then again in the dressing rooms. What in the world does a 25 year old married teacher wear? Every dress I found was ridiculously too short, all the shirts I saw either had a big hole in the back, was see through, or had so many sparkles and sequins that my kids would have thought I was a bottle of glitter. Then I was at Nordstrom and couldn't decide which section I should be in. I'm over in the junior section with these tiny little girls and then in the women's section, the ladies are looking at me like they want to ask me if I've lost my mom. Which got me thinking.... I'm officially stuck between junior and woman.

Maybe you all can help me out here... Am I just getting boring with my style, just getting lazy about what I wear, or do others struggle with this too?

I guess other factors can be part of the issue also... Location and social life affect closet choices, as do what's available close by. Luckily for me...not much is "close" to where I am which only makes it worse. I try on things and right away, my mind starts questioning... "Where would I wear this? Could I wear it to school? Would it look OK with a cardigan? Am I going any where fun to wear it to? Does it make me look even younger than I already do?"

I love gap, banana republic, and little boutiques that I've found through Facebook but want to have some fun with my clothes too. So I'm going to make this an ongoing post because I want to hear back from you all. Let me know your thoughts and maybe I can share some new boutiques that I find along the way.

Thanks for reading my clothing rant. I know you're so glad you stopped in to read about such an exciting topic.

On another note, I'm almost at 1000 page visits. Woohoo. Thanks for making me feel like less of a nerd for writing random thoughts/feelings/rants on here.

One of the pictures I took in Jamaica... Love these flowers
