Friday at the laundromat

Tomorrow is new years eve and so I won't have time to wash my comforter. So I decided to hang out at the laundromat and get it done tonight. Here are the top 10 things I have learned in the hour I have been here. 10. Bring a snack. 9.Find one that has a machine that fits your comforter with room to swim around. 8. Be ready to be there for about 2 hours. 7. Bring lots of quarters. 6. You will not be alone, even if you think "but it is Friday night!" 5. Remember your laundry soap 4. Learn how to hover and swoop. 3. Washing clothes is the new family game night. 2. Don't even think about going near someone else's laundry. 1. Never look your machine competition in the eyes. Nice! Just finished my post and the dryer has stopped! Bring on the wine.

I think that ALL frozen pizza's should be microwavable! It just sucks when you buy some for lunch at work and you go to open it and it says conventional oven. Oh well I will eat it microwaved and like it. I thinks cutting your nails in public, especially on the train is disgusting. I just got finished cutting them at work any way. HAHA Photo busting is fun...just be sure you pick the correct photos to bust. Never bomb in on engagement or wedding pics that's just mean. :-) Oh and be careful your face can get stuck like that if you it too long. TRUST ME. I think it would be great to be pregnant, but not for just the reason of the babies but because I'd be able to stop sucking my stomach in every day. I think it is great when someone on facebook says I believe in XYZ or I support XYZ if you don't then you might as well un-friend me now. It's like asking me to, so I do. Even if I agree with them. There are people who eat for comfort. People who eat i

Potty Training

Image
You are probably thinking to yourself, but you don't have any kids yet Terri. This is true, though I can actually suggest a lot of good tips for potty training kids from my preschool teaching years, this is not about kids. This is Nacho's Christmas present. Compliments of my wonderful brother in law, he thinks Nacho needs to be potty trained. Nacho has a self cleaning litter box and he is great at using it. However, next week we embark on a new phase in his life. We will be able to tell you if an old cat can learn new tricks. HAHA Yes, I am seriously going to try to potty train my cat. How awesome would is be to not have a box, litter all over the floor, saving money on litter and sleep soundly because the box wont be cleaning itself in the middle of the night. And since you are a loyal reader you will get to be part of this wonderful experience. Pictures included (even though it is a private thing to use the potty) Wish me luck! Merry Christmas to you all and

Who knew???

Last Friday I started to feel a cold coming on, but I was determined to not let it stay. However, even with all of my activity and movement to not let it find a home in me it did. By Saturday night I was coughing at night and by Sunday morning it buried itself into my chest. So not happy about that. Well I went to work Monday and Tuesday hacking, because who really wants to waste a "sick" day when you aren't really sick. Yes, I do get sick during the year but hey at the end of the year if you have them left and your are going to lose them you have to use them. BUT again who wants to spend them sick. Anyway, Tuesday night my boyfriend says tonight drink some Tennessee Honey Whiskey before going to bed it should help. I giggled a bit because he's a whiskey lover so of course that would be his answer for this and well most things. However, at this point I'd try anything. I did at the "doctor" ordered and when I went to bed I actually did get some

"These Days" great song and words to live by

I never liked Mondays or bad news Or breakin in new shoes And mornings when I can't find my phone Nobody likes traffic or short nights Or situps or long flights But sometimes that's just the way it goes It's funny what you use to help me grow... So I'll learn to love these days Life along the way In the middle of the crazy God your love is so amazing Through the ups and downs You're the only hope I've found The Lord you meet me in the madness I'll learned to love these days I'll learned to love these days I can see a silver linin When the sun's not shinin' Even when you choose to bring the rain Oh, but I'm trustin your leadin' 'Cause your Lord of all my joy and all my pain So I'll learn to love these days Life along the way In the middle of the crazy God, your love is so amazing Through the ups and downs You're the only hope I've found The Lord you meet me in the madness I'll learned to

Make the one day...today.

Today I read that we should be willing to help as the Holy Spirit guides us. If God has directed you to do a kind act, to render a service or to restore a relationship/friendship, do it. You will experience a renewed and refreshed vitality to your Christian faith. How do you feel about that? I agree. Though sometimes it is a lot hard than just saying sure that sound great, I'll do it. I find that it is easy to perform an act of kindness or render a service, but when it comes to restore a relationship/friendship now that can be very hard for me. I'm not a grudge holder per say, but when someone hurts me it is very hard for me to let them back in. Not because I hate them or anything, but because I don't like to feel vulnerable. But I guess just saying that makes me vulnerable. Are there any relationships or friendships you need to repair? A lot of the time we say "one day" we'll be friends again. Or if he/she wanted my friendship she'd call me.

A time to reflect on 2011

The countdown til Christmas! With only a days left in 2011, I think it is time to sit and reflect upon all the wonders, good times, bad times and miracles of the year. This has been a year of change and so much uncertainty but God will always bring me through whatever he brings me to. 2011 was filled with babies, marriages, deaths, many changes at work, changes in my family and more. January - We started the year our wonderfully with the birth of little Kenneth. Coming into this world on 1/1/11. Headed out to AZ for a soccer tournament with some awesome ladies. Happily got to meet Kenneth or KP as we call him, see lots of family from all over AZ and win a few games. Lastly we finished out the month at the beautiful wedding of Amanda and Bryan Maxwell. Such a wonderful occasion and so much family around. February - Was a nice. slow month. We hit the Padres Fanfest and got some great pictures and met some of the players. Followed that up by a BIG ice cream party at Farr

Pickles

Do not reply to all

Today I sent out an email looking for votes on something, but specifically wrote in capital, bold and red font "ONLY SEND TO ME, DO NOT REPLY TO ALL." Tell me why two people still replied to all? LMAO. I mean really I could not have made those words stand out much more unless I increased the font size. Lesson I learned: 1. You can't make people pay attention 2. I might just be me they don't want to pay attention to 3. It costs a lot more money than I have to pay someone to pay attention the end. Remember, If it's Unladylike, Fattening or Fun,...I'm in! HEY ARE YOU PAYING ATTENTION TO ME?
