Day 30

Day 30 

March 14, 2012

This is the one picture I took today. I really need to get better at this! It's of Shawn & Gus in my window. It's the only one I opened today because it only got up to about 35-40 degrees, and it was raining. 

Some things I posted today:

"Mom's list of things for me to do today: Don't panic, and clean the house.  Thanksss mom. Have a great lunch with your friend. =]"

"Can I panic now??? Please?!?!"

Tomorrow is the last day before we go to pick up my friends, and I'm slightly in a panic about the house being  so messy. Especially my bedroom! But I did get some cleaning done while my mom was at lunch with her friend. Here's what I got done:

• Clean the toilet, shower, sink & mirror
• Vacuum the rugs
• Take the things I'm getting rid of down to the basement to be stored
• Laundry

I've done 9 loads of laundry in two days - 5 from last night folded and put away, 2 from earlier today folded, 1 in the dryer & 1 in the washer.

I got a shower for myself, and shopping for party stuff done today. 

Now all that's left is cleaning the house (dishes, sweeping, general picking up, some vacuuming), decorating favor boxes and putting stuff in them, cleaning my room...(I still have tons of stuff to put away, and no place to put it!), and final plans for meeting up with friends, where & when. 

I'm ready to panic. I really really really am.

Right now, I need to get some sleep, and do my best not to panic (too much) tomorrow. 

Hopefully all plans will work out alright, and we'll have a good time. 

Pray for me and my nerves tomorrow please!! We'll need help from the Lord to get it all done! 

I'm loving this song. The words are so true and right for this time. 

When everything falls apart
Your arms hold me together
When everything falls apart
You're the only hope for this heart
When everything falls apart
And my strength is gone
I find You mighty and strong
You keep holding on
You keep holding on

I love that line "I find You might and strong". I know I will find God might and strong, and he WILL hold me together while my "world" seems to be falling apart. =]

Have a good Thursday everyone!

Day 26

Day 26

March 10, 2012

I got this card in the mail on Friday, and it totally made my day. 

This was the other side. (I whited out the addresses for privacy)

Oh, by the way, I'm excited.  =P 

Only a little though...haha. My friend reminded me tonight that it's only 9 days away. 

I didn't even realize! Now I'm even more excited!!

Today I got my dad's old Dell Latitude D430 laptop. It's smaller, and faster then my old one. 

I'm pretty happy with it, though it has a different operating system then mine did, and I'm still learning my way around.  

Today I made dinner. Box mac and cheese, pigs in a blanket and baked beans. Easy, but it takes awhile for just one person. Especially when the cans of Pillsbury rolls wouldn't open. That required hitting them against the edge of the counter until the top popped off. Fun night! =)

Today I ate girl scout cookies. Thin Mints are super yummy! =D

Today I was stressed out about whether or not my friends will be able to come. Partly because I had a dream that the dad of one of my friends called to say that he had a meeting that night and he couldn't bring her.  I don't think it's fair to have a bad dream about this every night since I sent out those invitations! 

It may be better then the dream about my mom having twin boys and naming them Spotty and Laurie with some strange unpronounceable Japanese middle names....I didn't even get to meet them! 

I tell you...my mind sometimes.

Today was Saturday. 

Today I'm thankful for music, and friends. Also for invitations that I can worry about. I mean, what else am I going to do with my time?

Tomorrow is Daylight Savings Time. Don't forget to spring ahead! 

Do you ever have strange dreams?

Do you ever get overly excited about things?

Happy Day 14!

Day 14, January 14, 2012

This is the new patch I put on my jeans yesterday.

It was half the size of the other patch I have, but it's really cute.

It's a iron on patch, but I sewed it on so it'll stay put. And I used tie-dye thread. =D

I don't seem to have much to say today...yup. Okay, well, I'm just going to post this then.

Have you ever sewn on patches?

What do you think of the tie-dye thread?
