Day 3-25 Days of Christmas

~Day 3: What is your favorite memory of snow?~

This is simple!!!  I'm not a huge fan of snow.  I love throwing snowballs.  I love playing in the snow!  Unfortunately though, most days I have to be an adult (highly over-rated) and go to work which means driving in it.  If snow just would land in the yards, I'd be a happy girl!  Anyway...I don't remember what year it was.  But it was over New Year's.  My friend Beth was over.  And it snow...and snow...and snowed some more.  And my Cougar had been sitting outside cause the weather had been so bad...so it hadn't been driven.  So Dad thought it would be a good idea to get it started just in case.  Well, it started...but it wasn't moving off of the ice that was on the street.  So LuAnn, our neighbor, hooked it up to her truck and got it off of the ice and into the driveway.  But it was COVERED in snow and ice...thanks to the snowplows.  So we all bundled up...me, mom, dad, Beth and even LuAnn and headed out to get it all cleaned off.  Well, Mom and LuAnn ended up over in the side yard making snow angels!  Man, I'll have to dig those pictures out someday!  Beth and I threw snowballs...and helped Dad!  :-)  At one point, we were all cleaning the car off...Dad was on the passenger side of the car cleaning the window...and the next minute, he was gone!  He had slid on some ice and was pretty much under the car!  He didn't hurt himself...thank goodness...since we were all laughing so hard!  He didn't find it as funny as we did though!

New Year, New Me

New year, new me. Who says that? Ok, a lot of people so no offense if you’re one of them.  But I like me. Sure, I’m not perfect. But I don’t want to really change all of me.  So no silly quote like that for me! It is hard to believe that 2019 is here. The older I get, the quicker time flies by.  I do remember being told that when I was a teenager.  Those people were so right.  It feels like yesterday that I was sitting in my quiet house while Johanna was off with friends celebrating the start of 2018.  But that was a year ago.  Today, I’m still sitting in my quiet house but that’s because Karyna is just waking up for the day.   A few years ago, I used to work on videos that would highlight my year.  I loved doing them but they took time.  And that’s time that I don’t have as much of these days.  It’s hard to go through a year of pictures and videos.  Do you know how many pictures I take a year?  My goodness!...

Lots of Names

Well, this is my fourth Friday in my apartment!!! It really does feel like home for the most part!!! Tera helped me...wait...I take that back. Tera MOVED my swing and table from mom and dad's a few weeks ago and so that is now on my deck! I love it!! Although, I have to admit that I haven't been home too much to enjoy it but at least I know it's there. Hopefully I'll get the chance to relax on my swing this weekend. I set my smoke alarm off the other night! That was funny! I was cooking a chicken patty and some fries in the oven. All of a sudden I hear this loud beeping! Of course once I realized it was the smoke alarm, I ran into the kitchen. Everything was good in there! Food was cooking just fine! Apparently it just got too hot in here for the smoke alarm. The funny part though is me standing on the chair trying to figure out why the alarm won't quit chirping every 45 seconds...even after I took out the battery! So after a text to the landlords (who laughed), I r...
