I Think it's Great When...

multiple guys with attractive voices call at work. It really makes my day. Especially when one of them sounds like Nigel from Bones, accent and everything.

When he spoke a got an image of a face in my mind. It took me forever to figure out a name or a place.

Yes, I know my Thankfulification didn't get finished as with all things that I start. Someday I will finish something from start to finish. Perhaps I need to make a list of goals, since I don't have any written down.... anywhere. Hmmm.

..... In the meantime I will tell you about this experience:




The only Nutcracker I have ever seen has been the Barbie version, which I do like, even with the odd game-like animation and corny lines. So I was excited to see an actual un-talking version.

I like culture. Plays, theater, concerts etc. so I was sure I would absolutely love this.

Let me tell you, the costumes were beautiful, the scenery was beautiful, the dancing was lovely and enchanted, so was the music. So what was my overall thoughts? I was bored. I don't know how or why, but that's how I was. So I commend all of you who really enjoy it.

Once upon a time I thought that I was a ballet person who would enjoy every performance, but now I am sure that I am not.

: Roommates that do some of my laundry that buys me more time.
: a sister that folds laundray and who takes care of me the best she can
: the knowledge that I retain for a test that I didn't study for
: Muscles- to do anything but recently I realized how amazing they really are
: The money in my account I feel like I am doing pretty well.
: Free food that comes with buying a pan (that I did need)
: Recipes for pizza dough that are super delicious
: Heat and AC

Thankfulification { Day 14 }

Ten Things I love about My Hair and am Super Grateful for:

1) it grows fast

2) it's shiny

3) I don't have to use special products

4) it's long

5) it's my natural color

6) the highlights get lighter in the summer time

7) I can get it cut and if I don't like it it will grow fast and blend in better.

8) It curls well and straightens well, without the use of hairspray (except in humidity, but who has perfect hair in that scenario?)

9) I can do almost anything to it if I really have the time and patience (which I don't )

10) It's soft and silky (most of the time) .

Thankfulification {Day 13}

Fallen Leaves: As I walked back from getting ingredients for pecan pie with Michelle, we weaved through a park, meeting grandmother willow and walking under her long leafy fingers, and walking past her shelter into a thick plush carpet of leaves. It was so thick it was like walking through water or snow, without being wet. If we kicked just a little bit it would rain bright colors of crunchy stuff.

Two things I'm grateful for. Making pecan pie from scratch and walking through the leaves

Fun!

Yum!

Thankfulification {Days 9, 10, 11, 12}

Well, I think I'm like what, four days behind on this. I really have been thankful, I just didn't feel like blogging. So here is a catch up post.

Day 9 : My roommate and I went to a Latin dancing place. In my ballroom dance class we are learning the salsa and I thought that it was really really fun. I told my roommate this and she told me about a place that does Latin dancing where they teach a lesson first and then they have a dance afterward. One of her friends teaches there and is a dance competitor.

On Tuesday night at 9:30 the fun began, the building was so old and cool, just like old ballet studios that we always picture. The lesson they were teaching was about back bends. FUN! I somewhat got it down. My feet on the other hand not so much.(yep that's kinda what I was doing, although I'm not as agile...yet)

The thing that was so great about going to this, was that every guy that I danced with knew how to lead. It was so great! Plus I got to learn some new dances and have a refining lesson on my cha-cha. I thought I had it down before but apparently not. Taking a ballroom dance class is one thing, but actually applying it is a completely different experience. So in all this I am thankful for 1) my ballroom class (because I do still like it) 2) my roommate for knowing about this and taking me with her 3) the opportunity to go and have so much fun and 4) guys who can lead.

Day 10: This day I had a math test, ugh. When I was studying over the past three days I felt like there wasn't enough time. Then as I was taking the test there seemed to not be enough time. Both in my studying and during the test, I was pressured by time and my brain completely froze. I knew the information, I just felt like I didn't have enough time to process, remember and understand what I was doing. So today, I am thankful for when I do have enough time, so that I'm able to think.

Day 11: These lovely people


Day 12: Blankets, more specifically, bed comforters. It's just so nice to snuggle with the covers.

Doesn't that bed just look so comfy
