Happies...

In the midst of being sick I've gone into the "feeling sorry for myself" slippery slope I think most of us face when we're sick. So it's been a while and what might help me feel better is posting things I'm happy about or grateful for. Sometimes It's all about remembering the little things.

- I have gotten my fair share of 'What not to wear' in the past two days and am feeling more inspired to dress better (this show does this to me).

- Aquaman has been super snuggly the past couple days. He's fallen asleep on my lap more than once in the past couple days and that makes me smile.

- Eric has been taking care of me. He's such a good husband - I am so blessed.

- Mom has been on vacation and she's been texting me love. It makes me smile that my mom can text!

- I get to go to work tomorrow. I am really REALLY looking forward to getting back to my normal schedule.

- It rained yesterday (a lot) and I love the rain, and after the storm we got a beautiful Rainbow!

- Our landlord is letting us paint and I'm getting excited that we get to paint and re-org our place, long over due!

- The weekend is just around the corner. I heart the weekend!

- My niece has been writing me letters latley and they make me smile bigger than life.

- Giving up Facebook for lent has been easier than I anticipated.

Hope this finds you all well.
Miss you :)

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off.  This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it!  I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

8 Years Ago Today...

 8 Years ago today... I was in the Kent/Des Moines Park and Ride puking in the bushes because I was SO Nervous about my first day at KMS. I didn't know If I could hack it in the big city. I didn't know a thing about being a Receptionist, and I didn't even know what a Broker/Dealer was, but I swallowed the lump in my throat and decided to take it head on. I've learned SO MUCH - an Immeasurable amount of life and work lessons from my 8 years at KMS, and I could muse all day long about the Farm Fresh 22 year old you see to the left and how naive she was. KMS has given me a gift of balancing a work life and a home life and still being able to give my 110% when I'm at work without losing my balance. When I walked in the door this morning, my co-workers had created this celebration from me, and after they arrived, it got bigger with gifts, and notes, and cards, and decorations. They wanted to celebrate me, and my achievements here, though If they would have kn...
