Five Things To Remember About September 29, 2011

  1. Only one more sleep until I get to go see my sweet boyfriend, Ninja. (We live in two different cities that are about 3 hours away from one another.)
  2. I worked on my Stats homework at work today and got extremely frustrated because I couldn't get past section 3.1 after over 3 tries.
  3. I thought a lot about why I am nearing the corner of 6 months until I turn 30 and not yet married with child/children. Why does this happen when we get close to 30?(Maybe just now because I found out that two girls I went to high school with are both preggo for the 2nd time around.) I need to get busy apparently.
  4. I found ninja cookie cutters on Pinterest today and totally ordered them so I can make Ninja a "Ninja Cookie Snack" one day. HOW COOL!
  5. So, I went to Target this evening to pick up my prescription and to buy more fish oil and my multi vitamin (yeah, I'm healthy and stuff). As I was standing in line waiting for the Pharmacy Tech to help me there was a man standing behind me talking to himself....or so I thought. Let's just say he must have been borderline homeless because he hadn't had a bath in approx. 8 weeks give or take, he had a hat on with what looked to be "flair" hanging from it, and his "walking stick" was just that....A STICK. He was all like looking over my shoulder saying "Is that folic acid or Niacin...wait what is that?" I just shrugged. Then he proceeds to tell me that he is just interested in what other people are poisoning themselves with. I am pretty sure he's still talking to himself because I haven't even looked at him. He told me that I should stick to the earth and plants. And then he says, "But look at me buying pine sol when I have a pine tree in my front yard." I'm not really sure what that was supposed to mean but finally the Pharmacy Tech came over and asked him to go to another register. Weird.
My boyfriend isn't really a Ninja. This picture is how he got his nickname from me.

Five Things To Remember About September 28, 2011


  1. When I woke up this morning, I woke up to a prayer request text from a very dear friend. I prayed and prayed and prayed.
  2. My Statistics professor thought it would be a good idea for our class to grade our classmates tests in class....not good dude, not good. I pay for college for YOU to grade the tests. Not to mention that this is a math class therfore the entire math problem should be graded, not just the answer.
  3. My herb garden sprouted! I think it is the dill and possibly the cilantro but I can't tell because my labels were eaten. *see post from yesterday.
  4. I was invited to attend a luncheon in honor of Camp Fire USA. Not only was it a delicious lunch, but I was also inspired and moved by the stories of children who have been raised in poverty and have overcome very challenging obstacles to be successful. There were tears of joy and happiness brought to my eyes. I am honored to be able to support such an amazing organization. http://www.campfireusa.org/
  5. I rode my scooter to school this evening and decided to stop by the food truck at the Siegl's by my apt. It was Gandolofo's NY Deli. So delicious and a lovely evening to stop at the food truck.
My little pit stop on the way home from class.
My first sprouts of dill and possibly cilantro! (can't tell because someone stole my labels)

Five Things To Remember About September 27, 2011

  1. I decided to start this blog.
  2. I went to The Porch for the first time again in months. http://www.theporchdallas.com/
  3. I ran 3.5 miles and it was hot and hard. My legs feel like heavy anchors.
  4. Someone ate my herb garden labels! I don't know if it was a squirrel or raccoon but I'm after you! When I told my boyfriend, Ninja, he asked if I called the cops. I told him not yet.
  5. I was reminded at The Porch that my life is not my own and regardless of the messes I make, God will make it work for the better good of Him...in spite of me!
