Ten on Wednesday


 1| I'm sorry ... I forgot. With all this couch excitement I totally spaced my Ten on Tuesday. Bad Blogger - No cookies!

2| In other news, my commute SUCKS thanks to Viadoom! I don't know what I was expecting but the first night it took me 45 minutes longer than normal, and last night I took 3 modes of transportation and got home 30 minutes faster than the night before. Success.


3| Last night I was working on my Mom's book only to find out an hour later when I closed down the program it froze, and I lost everything that I had been working on for the past hour and a half. Crap. Thank GOD it's a labor of love or I'd be pulling out my hair by now.
4| I hate this formatting... sorry.

5| This morning there was a true blue crazy lady on the bus that, thought someone was following her, and told a fellow commuter that she was not to speak to her because she was black, and crazy lady doesn't talk to people who are not caucasian. Fellow commuter was so surprised I didn't know if she was going to laugh or slap her! It was quite the ride. Thank you Metro.

6| I'm looking to sell my antique camel back trunk soon. I have been debating it for awhile, and though I love that trunk, there's just not much space for it in my life right now, and it really doesn't fit the decor, and it's not in terribly wonderful shape - needs a little TLC from a handyman, and I am not said handyman.
7| Look at our furry kids... this new couch is MAGICAL!

8| English Breakfast Black Tea is my new favorite thing in the world - and Soy latte's. Who knew I'd go from a White Mochaholic to Black Tea and Soy lattes.

9| I have really big plans to clean up my bed room tonight... let's see how that goes 

10| I am happy to report the knee is doing better... ICE is still my best friend, but we're on the mend!

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...
