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 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!!!

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

Dear Friday -- I say this every time but... THANK YOU FOR COMING! :) I am hoping we have an awesome, relaxing night together!

TIDS + BITS

Hello there!

Whew, this week has had it's fill of STUFF. And yet, we haven't been up to too much... that's unfortunate. 

 (photos do not follow order of tids below... sorry!)

+Grateful for the Lord working in my life, even when I don't see it or feel it or know it or believe it.... He is.

+Currently we are recouping from having our 4 day weekend... It's always hard to go back to work. But, it was a plus having Monday off :) I am pleasantly surprised when I look at the day and it's a day later than I thought!

+Oh. I cut my bangs. Yeah. By myself... nice. I usually do this, but not really this short... It always helps when I trim them up a bit, and I don't think I have ever really done too bad of a job, but this time...  don't know how I like them. Aaron says he likes them, so that's good since he sees me more than anyone else. 

+Trying to eat better. It really isn't going too badly! I have tons of junk food cravings and I still drink soda of course... but I am trying, I promise!!

+Aaron and I started our first-time homebuyer's classes.. well, we only had one. We were late to it. Aaron was about 75% sure it started at 6:30... it started at 6:00p. But, it was his birthday, so I sided with him and we just cut the difference so in case we were late, we were only 15 minutes late. Talk about embarrassing... plus, it doesn't help that we look like we are, what? 16 years old walking into this class with all these older people. Fun stuff. Our second class was canceled, hoping that it is rescheduled soon. 

+On Pinterest I found a workout that Carrie Underwood supposedly does for her leg workout. I thought, "well, she has pretty great legs... I will do this!!!!" yeah. about that..... it's a pretty simple set of like 5 exercises but I tell you what, it is 2 days later and my but and thighs are killing me. Like, I-got-punched-in-the-muscle-this-really-hurts killing me. So, I'd say it's a pretty good little go-to work out. 

+We leave for vacation in something like 20ish days. YES. I CANNOT WAIT FOR THE BEACH.

+Glad the sun is out and has been out. Not glad the relative humidity is something like 928349384%

+I love watermelon. And it's so good for you. YES!

friday's letters

instagram photo of my outfit in the bathroom, of course.

Dear Friday: thank you for coming. I can honestly say I wasn't sure you would. I just wish you would have let me sleep in and not have been a work day.

Dear Husband: you are the SWEETEST man in the entire world. thank you for putting up with my insanity, with my quirks and for just being you. I am excited for your birthday coming up :) :)

Dear work: please be kind to me today.. oh, and go by really fast!!

Dear little garden we planted:  I HOPE YOU GROW TO BE THE BIGGEST GARDEN IN THE WORLD!!!! well, not really THAT big, but big enough ;)

Dear instagram: you are great for capturing life. though, you also make me extremely lazy and not really care to delete images from my REAL camera and actually use it. 

Dear chocolate: uhm. you have my heart. for REAL.

Dear YouVersion Bible App: I am glad are becoming better friends.. your devo "Soul Detox" is just what the Doctor ordered :)

Dear readers: I am just so ecstatic that someone OTHER than me read this, so THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for stopping by and reading the silly things I have to say or think about life.

Dear self: believe in yourself.

Have a lovely weekend everyone :) My husband and I will be working at an entire city yard sale tomorrow for our church to raise money for our youth group. Wish us luck :( haha

Letters on a Friday....

YAY!!! It's FRIDAY :)

And that means, I have some letters to some lovelies. So here goes!

Dear earlier episodes of The Office...  I LOVE YOU! Husband and I have been dying laughing watching you this morning. 

Dear Michael Scott...  I miss you so much. Please come back to the office and get that horrible british woman off the show.

Dear Friday.... I cannot express how much I love you today. I am enjoying this day off and the sunshine is amazing.

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. Also, I can't believe you walked up to Aaron during your nightly walk with a SQUIRREL IN YOUR MOUTH!!?!?!? I am so sicked out by that. Please don't get rabbis.

Dear boss... thank you for giving me the day off!

Dear Youth Group... uh, you guys better be awesome this weekend on our camping trip. No funny business!!

Dear weekend... don't go by too fast. :)

Dear sweet husband of mine... thanks for being so understanding of me and my insanity.

Changes

Hey there!

How has your week been? This week sure has been pretty long for me.. I think I just spend my days wishing I were outside instead of in a stuffy office. Oh well...

There has been a little change to my blog and I am probably way too excited about it... but here goes!

I have a signature for my posts now!!!! :)

Thanks to the lovely link-up found here at Becoming What I Always Was, I was able to find some lovely blogging tips which you should definitely check out if you want to learn more about HTML, design, buttons, etc. The tip I used can be found here! It's very helpful and easy to do!

First, I had to make my own "image" or "picture" to do this. Since Picnik is no longer around, I have Google+ now. It has all the properties of Picnik since they decided to move on over there... it's awesome once you start using it! You should try it :)

Anyway, that way I created my image was sort of silly, but I used "Paint" on my computer. I simply saved a blank "canvas" persay once I opened up Paint. I saved it where I would easily remember it. You could do it on your desktop and name it something that you will remember. Mine was "sig" because it would later be my signature. 

Once I saved that, I went to my Google+ account and I clicked on photos and edited my photo there. There is a more descriptive way of doing this right here.  All I did was go to "Text" as I used to do for Picnik and I made the fonts how I liked them, I cropped the image around the letters and saved it.

I then had to right click and save the image to my computer as well. 

THEEENNNNNN, I went to PhotoBucket and made my own FREE account (gotta love free) and uploaded the image. It's fairly simple to do that, so I won't provide that :)

Once that happens, I followed the instructions at the site that I used. Again, here is the link to that.

Just follow the steps!

Happy signing!!
