Ten on Tuesday

 1 | This round of Series 7 studying is going muuuuch better, which means you won't be hearing much from me. Gotta stay focused!

2| We went to celebrate Gene & Christina moving into their new place with dinner on Saturday night. It was fun to have everyone together.

3| Eric and Lucas are 2 peas in a pod. Both of their faces light up when they realize they're in the same room together. It's adorable.

4| My Grandma's brother Clif passed away this weekend. He had just celebrated his 93rd birthday. I am sure he was welcomed with open arms, but I know there are a lot of people here that will still miss him.

5| Following a doctors visit on Friday, I discovered I have 13 pounds to lose instead of that 8 I've been agonizing over. Super!

6| Eric helped Gene & Christina move last week which meant me fending for myself after work, and let me tell you, I don't like it much at all! I love having a house husband. It's legit!

7| Wednesday Morning I arrived at work and promptly dumped my coffee on my keyboard. It was THAT kind of day.

8| I cleaned the house on Sunday - There's nothing better than a good spring clean when you can open the doors and windows and blast the music!

9| This year I have contracted 2 "common infections" that most people have semi-frequently that I have never had ever before. I guess it's just my year to catch up. BOO!

10| I am working on having a better attitude in life in general... wish me well on that one!

See ya next week!

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...
