Saturday, Which Means It's Almost Sunday.. AGAIN



Time Flies When Your Having Fun! Well I think, Time just Flies, no matter what!  I feel like I was just barely putting on a dress for church. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy Church most days, but Sunday's are just not my favorite. Sunday clothes are so Overrated! and the fact that Sunday is just that much closer to the Relief Society Birthday Party.  Is kinda freaking me out!!
 It's coming together,  I'm seeing it slowly take shape. YAY for parties, and I'm so excited the Grass in my cute pots are Growing!! My dad asked "if I was trying to grow Organisms??"  My reply, nope just WEED , Not gonna lie, I kinda feel like a druggie.  I've got my special lights and I take extra precautions to remove them at night so they don't get a chill, and would you judge me, If I talk to them??  Well, in my professional opinion,  we all need a little encouragement from time to time. Pathetic, you say?  I'm tough I can handle it.
Well I'm off to make more invites, and finish up the table decorations and then I'm off to the Dreaded Winco.
I really love Saturdays, Mainly, because I don't have to wear a Dress :) and I can  get lots accomplished
 I hope every body's weekend is fun filled and Relaxing!!!

Dear Winco

I'm NOT your biggest fan, Sorry, I know you must be Heartbroken. I hate grocery shopping, especially at Winco, but today I needed to get some Baking supplies and so off to my favorite place besides Cal Ranch(that's another post for another day). we got behind a very Crabby shopper, she was old and probably doesn't enjoy shopping either, but Really? Then Birds flying overhead, Who wants birds flying over their produce? Not me, that's for sure, Gross, and then the WORST!  Dear Winco shoppers in aisle (let's say) 11 PLEASE GET A ROOM! I know the canned fruit creates such a Romantic atmosphere, but Please save that for somewhere else, Um Maybe where I'm Not, Is that too much to Ask???? I think not, and to end this fabulous trip, we ended up behind the previously mentioned Crabby lady, who had forgotten her Debit card number and so because she had tried multiple times, she was locked out of her account, so she had to pay with a check, which Made her day just that much sweeter. So all in all that is just a few more reasons to add to  my reasons why I'm not your # 1 fan.

Panic Attack

PANIC has set in!!  I ONLY have 9 days to pull together a Fabulous Birthday party for the Relief Society Birthday celebration.  I need to breathe! It will be fine, I Can do it, I Think I can! I think I can! So why am I wasting time on Facebook and Blogging, well because I am overwhelmed.
Program to plan, food to buy, decorations to get, grass to grow, projects to do, and yeah remember Deep Breath!! HE-HE-HE-WHO( oh wait I'm not having a kid) okay I'm GOOD :) Overly dramatic you say, well for some reason I thought I had Way more time, but not so. I'm just gonna have to pick up the pace a little. It's all good. After some much needed inspiration(MANDY)  I've got great ideas and am looking forward to seeing it all come together.
More posts to come as the planning and prep work begins.
Yay for Parties and Friends and Food, and and pre-planning get together's

Gratitude is Not Overrated

Nothing to do with this post. I just LOVE them
I heard a comment the other day that Gratitude is overrated. Today I am going to disagree.
I have kinda been in a Slump lately and as I sat in bed last week thinking about life and How good I've got it. I realized just how Grateful I "Should" be.
I am a pretty Lucky girl and this thought reminded me of a church article about having An Attitude of Gratitude, I realize that Attitude plays a huge part in my day. If my Attitude sucks, then I make it hard for those around me to have a positive attitude, same with those people I surround myself with. If they are Crabby, it's easy to have a Negative attitude. I know that Life isn't always easy, or fair, and I compare my life with people who in my opinion "Have it All" and it's hard sometimes to see people who have husbands and sweet children and realize that it's what I want more than anything in this Whole Wide World, I know that It's still a possibility that I will find "Mr. Right" and have those beautiful Blond Haired, Blue Eyed Spoiled rotten kids. But for now it's not my life,  SO I need to find Joy in the Journey TODAY,  Easy, probably not, but it's my new goal.  Wish me Luck :)
 To help with this, I have started taking time everyday to find reasons to be Grateful, some may seem a little far fetched but they are all "my" reasons  I should show Gratitude.
Here are Just a Few I listed Last week
 I'm Grateful For:  A Loving Father in Heaven who Knows me and Loves me  No Matter What.
 I'm Grateful For:  My Family who supports me and loves me even when I'm Grumpy
 I'm Grateful For:  Cozy Pillows and Blankets to curl up in, when I feel like Crap
 I'm Grateful For:  Mandy who invited me over for a Great lunch and catching up.
 I'm Grateful For:  Faithful Church Leaders who are Extremely Patient and willing to just Listen
 I'm Grateful For: Glee- They make me Smile
 I'm Grateful For: Reagan- She is so sweet and sassy all at the Same time
 I'm Grateful For: Pain Medication to knock me out when the pain is more than I can stand
 I'm Grateful For: Music to add to my mood- good or bad
 I'm Grateful For: The Atonement that allows me to be forgiven and try harder tomorrow
 I'm Grateful For: Milk and Cookies
 I'm Grateful For: Talented Crafter's/Cooks' that I can Learn from
 I'm Grateful to just Chill with the Fam
 I'm Grateful For:  Sunshine amidst all the snow and ice
 I'm Grateful For:  My preschoolers and how they teach Me regularly
 I'm Grateful For:  Quotes that make me think
 I'm Grateful For:  Friends who care and are Honest even when I don't want to hear it
 I'm Grateful For:  The knowledge that I am still A Daughter Of God

See I have a lot to be Grateful for and it's amazing how when you look for the good you WILL find it!!

Ch Ch Ch CHANGES

Someone once said that Change is a good thing. I am willing to agree to disagree.
I know change can be good. I love reaching into my pocket and having loose Change especially Quarters, and I love Changing into P.J's after a long day, and watching the leaves as they Change colors in the Fall, and I especially love the way cookie dough Changes into warm gooey delicious cookies  Okay but seriously, Change is not something I like or even look forward to, even if I know it will benefit me in my life. 
I've been thinking a lot about change and how it's inevitable, there is No stopping it. Sometimes change comes from the choices we make, or the choices that others make, it can be good or bad, but it will happen.
I recently spoke to a friend who said " You Choose To" that's how you make it through your day. You have the right to choose how you react, how you will let things affect you, you can't change some things, so you just have to choose what you can Change.  Seems simple right? Well to this friend, THANKS FOR NOTHING :)  ha ha,  Sometimes it's SO hard to make the right choices, and sometimes I'm afraid that I'll  mess up a good thing, so why try.  I'm so confused right now in so many areas in my life that it just seems easier, to quit.  Nothin like a positive outlook on life :)  Looking forward to getting hit soon with the inspiration stick, and hopefully knock some sense into me or some stuffing out of me. Either would be good!

Nothin Fun to Blog About...



I need some excitement in my life. I haven't blogged for 4 days because My life is BORING :)

I need a hobby. I think I will take up Cake Decorating again, but this time For Real. Cake decorating can be expensive but I plan to learn all I can from YouTube and Blog stalking. I Love Blogs, I Love YouTube, I Love Frosting, I Love Cake so it seems Like a Perfect match..  I also love the idea of Cupcakes, they are just cute and fun and can I just say, the ones that are all the rage these days look like little pieces of Heaven. I have stayed FAR away from the Cupcakes shoppes in town because let's face it, I don't want to turn into the Chubby Cupcake Mascot. That would just be Wrong, OK maybe it wouldn't be so bad. Cupcakes are DeliSh!!!
Anyways if you find random plates of cupcakes or a fabulously decorated cakes turn up on your doorstep you can just Smile and know that there's probably more of that to come, so ENJOY or have a cupcake/cake throwing contest :)
