Hugs and kisses and a tribute to mothers everywhere

Sunday, May 13th, 2012

Even though I have a blog, sometimes I struggle for the right (or should I say the “write”?) words to say to people that I love. Today, being Mother’s Day, I feel that the every day “I Love you Mom” just isn’t enough. So when I found this cute little video on YouTube that is a tribute to mothers everywhere, I decided that it would help to express how much I appreciate my own mother. Happy Mother’s Day Mom!

Online a Lot

Thanks to Lemuel Craft

I’ve been researching satellite internet in my area because getting internet at the house is the last thing I haven’t done yet. I moved in about a month ago and I LOVE the place but it needed a lot of work so I basically spent the last few weeks of my life, nights and weekends, doing renovations and fixing the place up, you know? So anyway, I think it’s great so many people tried to buy this place and I won the bidding war but at the end of the day is it okay that I paid so much for it? I don’t know. Only time will tell if I can get out of it what I’ve put in but I really love it here and I can actually see myself living here for a while to come which makes me think it’s worth it regardless. I know it’s all about whether or not you’re comfortable in your house and I can honestly say this place really does feel like home.

Candy molds

Tuesday, March 20th, 2012

My sister bought some lollipop candy molds and wants me to take some time later this week to practice melting some candy melts and fill the molds so she can have some lollipops to give away in the near future. I’ve never done anything like that before, it sounds like it could be fun, but I’m a little bit worried about having to use a frosting pastry bag to squeeze the candy out. I’m not quite sure that I have the strength in my hands to be able to do that.

I don’t even have any pastry bags, and I’m wondering if I should go out and buy some, or if there is a quick and easy way to make one ourselves from parchment paper or coffee filters. I’ll have to spend some time online to research that. Have you done anything like that before? How did you do it?

Coffee cup pranks

coffee cup pranks

These coffee cups show up everywhere now. I see them in TV shows, on commercials, in the hands of people walking down the street. I thought it was a cute prank. Hope you got a laugh from it and have a great day!

A clogging workshop

Sunday, February 26th, 2012

My sister was telling me that she wants to take clogging lessons and wants me to go with her. I had never heard of clogging before, so I looked it up on YouTube. It is a type of dance that is similar to what I call “Riverdance.” To be honest, I didn’t know what to think about taking classes. We found out that there was a day-long workshop going on in Haymarket yesterday, so I agreed to go and watch.

It looked like it was a lot of fun, but let me tell you this, I don’t know if my poor body would be able to take it! I do agree that it would be great exercise and probably would lead to some much needed weight loss, so I agreed to take a few classes with her. I hope it doesn’t kill me!
