Ten on Tuesday

1| Frick, it's Tuesday of test week. I feel as ready as I'm going to be for the monster in my life I call the Series 7. There is equal parts of fear, loathing and desperation in my mind and body right now.

2| My life is seriously boring, that's a) why I haven't been typing here in quite some time, and b) feel like I have NOTHING to type whatsoever.

3| I have made a "bucket list" of things I want or need to do once the Series 7 exam is past, it's a growing, scary hairy list that I so badly want to start working on. Just need a 72... everyone pray for a 72!

4| Eric's been good without me around. He's taken to cooking me delicious food so I don't starve my body.

5| Aquaman is seriously jealous of all the time I spend at the library. The moment I get home he will not leave my side.

6| This weekend (pass or fail) Kat and I are going to check out the Cherry Trees at UW. I am so excited!

7| Pass or fail ... Eric and I are going to go on a pseudo date Friday night. I need a break.

8| My coworker asked me the other day... "So your sister is a nurse... right?".... "Yes, Shannon's a nurse" ... "Has she ever wanted to be a veterinarian?" ... "I don't know, I don't think so". .... "Well, I was just wondering, because they're kind of the same thing." - I about died of laughter.

9| I am working on simplifying things. Life is good.

10| Relay for Life and BLOG and Photography... You're on Said list referenced in #3 ... hang tight!

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...
