Ten on Tuesday

1| Don't worry - this entire post is not about weight loss or gain, I just think this little "how much do I need to lose" flyer was pretty funny. I'm not even sure where I stumbled upon it!

2| That being said, I feel like I've gained 120 pounds from dropping my 10 hour a week skating habit and picking up my 15 hour a week study habit.

3| I hope everyone had an enjoyable Easter holiday! It was nice to enjoy
a spring day here, a rarity lately!

4| Did I just talk about the weather? I'm getting old.

5| Today was one of the most stressful days at work I have had in a long time. I am ready for this week to be over already!

6| My Niece Erica wrote me a letter last week that I answered today (see Er? It's in the mail!) She asked me about my feelings on Justin Beiber. I have to say... HUH? I guess it's a teen thing, much like my Nsync days!

7| Eric and I made a yummy Mexican inspired meal tonight, complete with some soy based product for the meat on the tacos. I never thought I would ever type a sentence like that, and now I end it with... YUM!

8| I am starting to get the serious itch to get on my skates, I know my PT says NO and I know I will not disobey because my hubby would never let me, but I really want to fake a study session and take my skates to Pattisons. I still wonder if I have any talent left on wheels. It's been too long and it depresses me.

9| In relation to #8, I have been doing my PT exercises at home and working hard at it. I still don't think I'll be back to full contact soon, I guess I effed it up pretty good.

10| I really love my Boss for standing up for me and taking my word for things today - It somehow made the most stressful day at work, not the worst day ever. Thanks Boss. You're the greatest!

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...
