friday's lettters: 1/25/13

dear friday, you have been good to me. thank you!!

dear phone, I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU. I am so glad that you die every 5 minutes and don't really work. I cannot wait until my upgrade.

dear hair, I think you are growing on me. (speaking of which, I NEED TO SHARE!!)

dear houses that are for sale online one day and then not the next, you guys suck. getting my hopes up and everything and then BAM.

dear house-hunting, oi. headaches.

dear God, thank you for your many blessings you have been giving to us. I thank you for all the good things you are bringing our way.

dear new job, I AM SO EXCITED TO START YOU!! (oh man, I still have to share THAT too!)

dear current job, I won't miss you, per say.. I will miss the people, my boss. My boss is seriously the best boss. It will be hard leaving, but I am excited for a new adventure.

dear frozen apartment, i can't move my fingers very well to type this. WARM UP, DUDE.

dear husband, I am so proud of you for finishing your second class for your master's degree! You are awesome!!! I LOVE YOU :)

dear pinterest, you need to stop tempting me. I think we need a break.. some separation. it's not you, it's.. ah, who am I kidding, it IS you!

dear readers, thank you for all your sweet comments! Life has been quite a whirlwind and I hope to be able to comment back soon :)

dear weekend, be kind to us. last weekend was FULL of moving people and never resting... I hope we can get recharged this weekend.


have a good weekend :)

bananas of the world UNITE

Have any of you been to church summer camps, or anything of that sort? Do you know the banana song?  I have NO idea where it came from, but when I went to post a title to this, that song came to mind.  If you DON'T know it it goes a little something like this, "BANANAS OF THE WORLD, UNITE!..." (then, you bring your arms up like a banana and sing the rest, moving your arms down like they are banana peels...) "Peel banana, peel peel banana, peel banana peel peel banana.."  then, you go crazy, "GO BANANAS, GO GO BANANAS. GO BANANAS, GO GO BANANAS!!!!!!"

aaaannndddd enough of that....

This morning I am trying my best to be chipper and wish I weren't at home, in sweats, drinking hot chocolate, watching trash tv on netflix or cable.  MMM, good times, you guys. GOOD. TIMES.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Here are some letters I should probably write for today: 

Dear husband of mine....  I will miss you. We rarely see each other these days, and if we do, it is after we are dog tired and just veg out. I MISS YOU. Have fun this weekend with your friends! And, remember, you have a sermon to prepare ;)  I love you so much! :)

Dear friends.... YAY! I WILL HANG OUT WITH YOU TONIGHT AND IT WILL BE GLORIOUS. 

Dear gray hair....  uh, LISTEN. I am 23, NOT 33... know the difference. Why are there so many of you?!!? And why did you start coming around 21?!?!?  I hate you.

Dear fall....  I am in so much like with you it hurts.

Dear migraines I have been having these past few days....  I also hate YOU.

Dear work....  please go fast today :) I am really excited to see this week leave, and I hope you can help me in cooperating in this.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

+This past month or so has been a rough one, you guys. I don't know what's going on: maybe the weather change, or aliens taking over people's bodies.. I DON'T KNOW. But, my family has been crazy. Crazy things are happening. Sad things are happening to friends of mine. and good things happening to friends of mine as well. I can't seem to shake a funk I am in, and I am hoping that happens soon. So, I have saved you (and myself) from having to read it and for myself to have to look back on what was supposed to share some fun memories of my marriage, life, etc. and then be depressed by reading it. So, there's that..

+I have been trying my hardest to pick a major for my masters, and I think I have it figured out. But, every time I *think* I have it figured out.... something comes and TOTALLY takes me by surprise and makes me rethink everything... which sucks. 

Welp, I have nothing insightful or funny or intelligent to say as I should probably be paying some bills at work right now, and with the sun like NEVER coming out again, I am dragging along.

Have a great weekend :)

friday's letters

Good morning :) It's a little dreary out, but I am glad.. because... IT'S FRIDAY!! woo!!

and now, for some lovely letters on a Friday...

Dear life: you are getting ridiculous. How can something go wrong over and over and then it work out? Please, just let me know what's coming so I can be prepared. and yes, I know I am asking too much..

Dear work: I am working on being grateful for having you and for realizing what a blessing you are. Thank you that you provide me money and experience..

Dear school debt: you suck. but, listen, we are slowly but surely conquering you so... take that!

Dear summer: sooner or later you are going to be leaving. I know, I know. you are pretty sad about it... but come on. You were really hot and almost unbearable. I can't believe I am about to say this, but... I am glad it has been raining a little. Sorry...

DEAR FALL: I AM GLAD YOU WILL BE COMING SOON!!

Dear contentment: please come any time now :)

Dear house we wanted that is back on the market: quit playing games with our hearts. 

Dear bed: I am sorry I ever left you...

Dear husband: ah! I just can't express how awesome you are. Thanks for being you! i love you :)

Dear body: you can quit hurting any time now... 

Dear blog: you have 50 followers now! that is such a milestone and you should be proud of yourself. Who thought we would have ever had 1 follower? woo!!!

Dear weekend: prepare for me to try not to let you leave like you did on Monday. Let's make a pact to never let Monday get between us again.

Oh, by the way, work: you can go by really fast today, please and thank you :)

Dear self: whew! This week and taken it's toll at times. Just remember that you have one life to live and keep things in perspective. 

Dear YOU: Have a lovely weekend :)

FRIDAY'S LETTERS

i love me some hot chocolate :)

Dear Friday, we meet again. You are so lovely and I adore you. I hope you are good to me and fly on by! I need a nice, calm relaxing day!

Dear cold-I-think-I-am-getting, please go away. If I knew I had the whole weekend to lounge around I would maybe welcome you slightly as I wouldn't have much to do. But, as you see, the mister and I have lots to do this week, and I don't have time to be messing around with you. 

Dear hot chocolate, mmmmm! I will miss summer (sort of), but I will gladly welcome you with open arms when the school year starts around these parts and the coffee shop will be open so us staffers (and students :/) can get our fill!!

Dear niece and nephews, we are SO exciting to spend time with you this weekend! I hope you enjoy your time with us (and that we don't like, kill you or anything..). We love you!

Dear work, as I discussed with Friday, I hope you fly on by. We have some kiddos to get to and we don't need you dragging on... Thank you :)

Dear disappointments, I wish you didn't come so often these days. But, I am trying to learn to be grateful for you and to realize that without you, I wouldn't look at my life and be thankful for what I have nearly as much.

Dear God, thank you for being so so patient with me. 

Dear link-up, how is it 8:40am and already 103 people have entered you? Do people sleep?! You guys are quick!!!

=====================================================================

annndddd that's all for my letters. Short and sweet! I had hoped to put some things I was drooling over on pinterest and some pictures from this week, but.... this dang cold or whatever is holding me hostage. 

Now, go on over and do your own letters at Ashley's link-up by clicking below!!

Happy Friday :)

Dear little debbie brownie: I WILL buy you today, and I will have NO shame eating you.

Dear great weather .... You are AWESOME!

Dear Pumpkin..  I keep getting a huge laugh at remembering you falling off of the bed in your sleep this week and then walking around all disoriented. You. Are. Adorable.

Friday's Letters

Dear Friday... Why are you sucking so bad?

Dear Husband... thank you for loving me all the dang time, even though I am a big turd face sometimes.

Dear Pumpkin.. please don't pee or poop or throw up in the living room or bed room. I left those doors open for you because you were too dang cute all cuddled up in the living room so I didn't want to disturb you. Please don't ruin it.

Dear "Someone who will not be named".... I AM GOING TO SCREAM IF SOMETHING ELSE GOES WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dear Friday... again, why are you a butthead and not being as great as Thursdays?

Dear Readers of my little blog... it's awesome to see people (even if only 2!) read something I have to say. Like, something I say matters.

Dear God.. thank you for having unconditional love for me. I am an angry, rude person sometimes and I am just grateful that I can bring that to you and you still accept me. 

Dear me... I think you should go home right now and stuff your face with chocolate. That sounds ideal.

Dear myself... learn how to "link up" to Friday's Letters. 

Dear others... if you want to "Link Up" you will have to go to the page here until I can figure it out :)

Dear everyone... have a great Friday :)
