Old Phone

Last night, someone got into my car and stole my purse. Nothing valuable was taken. The police said it is just kids probably. However, my old cell phone (620)605-8556 was taken and I called the company to have it shut off just in case they try to use it. So, that no longer reaches me. Please use my home or Texas cell phone. Email me if you need these numbers!

I am just thankful nothing of real value was taken. Yes, and I will lock my doors from now on!!! Just a bad habit I got into, because I used to lock my keys in the car...lol!

Just had to share....




Well, as some of you know, I am an "Angel", that is a TAC (The Angel Company) demonstrator, although I currently just use this for personal use and don't actually "demonstrate" anything..LOL! I hope to get into this more at a later date.. However, I was sooooooo happy to see that featured on the TAC website is something that has some sweet personal meaning to me!!! My loving husband's "pet name" for me is none other than "Honey Bunny" ......Of course, I HAVE to get this stamp set!!! :)

Hip Hip Hoooray

Well, I was very scared about my final grade for statistics. That course really kicked my bottom! I have always been a slight procrastinator and this course wasn't an exception. Mostly, I just didn't understand it! But, today, I got some GREAT news! I have been checking back everyday to see if he has posted the grade for my final paper..which by the way is worth 25% of my entire grade!!! A lot was riding on it! Guess what I got!!! A 91%!!!!! This was no small feat! Here is the feedback comments the teacher gave me: "You did put forth a good effort. I think you should feel good about this. No big problems, just some areas that were good instead of great. " Needless to say, I am very happy about this!!! :)

I'm Finished!! Officially a College Graduate!!

Well, after MANY years of college, I am finally done!!!!!! My classes were officially over last Sunday, but it will be a while before I receive the Diploma in the mail. I opted to not go to Virginia for the ceremony...obviously traveling so close to when Philip is coming home is not feesible. It is soooooo nice not to have homework! I can honestly say that I may not miss school...I will always be a "student", but I prefer to learn when it is on my own terms, in my own timeframe and for free!!!! I am not sure what the future holds for me, but I know that I will probably pursue something within the education realm, such as teaching or tutoring of some sort. That is where my heart has always been.

Some news....

Found out Philip is going to be in the trailing party...so that means the last one back...mid June. So two weeks later than I thought! :( Guess that gives me more time to get things ready right? Hmmm.....not good news, but at least he will be home soon...

The Great Design Challenge

Sooo...I have been watching HGTV and reading DIY Magazine a lot. It never occurred to me that this was something I could actually do for my own place! I have been pretty concerned with getting the house spotless and organized before Philip returns. I have done little projects here and there in the lines of organization and cleaning consistency...but have been giving a lot of thought to actually adding some color and design to our living room and bedroom as a little "Surprise!". Of course, Philip is the typical male. He isn't all that concerned by what is on the walls of the house as long as it has 4 walls and a roof in which he can sleep and take leisurely baths. However, I think redesigning these two "hot" spots with dramatic change the look of things and add another dimension to our "home". There are limits to what I can do...since I am in a rental.

I really don't have my own sense of style. So, I think it will be fun to see what inexpensive and creative things I can do and use to "paint" the canvas of the empty walls. If you have any ideas or suggestions...let me know!!! :) I'm getting really excited about having a crisp, clean house to present Philip with!! Something he and I can be proud of and entertain and show off!!
