Why has the movie You've Got Mail been on so much...
Seriously- I think its been on at least every other day during December between ABC Family, E!, and every other network. WHY! WHY! WHY!

Favorites.
My grandmother gave me a sweet bright red ceramic casserole dish and an even sweeter red cast iron 5 qt casserole dish- she also gave me a ton of neon acrylics, stretched canvases, etc. At 80 years old, she barely hits 4’8” and is extremely tiny. She still hosts the entire clan at her house and goes overboard on everyone’s gifts. She cooks a killer breakfast for anyone who...

Love family time.
I spent the last couple days in Paris, IL with my dad’s side of the family. At 24 I’m the oldest cousin of 12 with the youngest being in 4th grade. I love getting to kick with it everyone- we eat a ton, play tons of board games, and this year my dad, uncle, and I took all the cousins (my siblings hadn’t yet arrived) sledding. The Colorado cousins were confused “Wait, this...

Christmas Update:
Tonight we set up the projector and watched a few episodes of Are You Afraid of the Dark in the basement. Very Nice.

Most schools have a PTA whose job is to organize the school carnival, get parents involved, and do other fun activities. At my school, the PTA is using its funds to put up a family who are very recently homeless (Monday). The kids go to my school- Kindergarten and second grade. It breaks my heart but its also reassuring that the school can reach out to them. I got a list of clothing sizes and...

Rantings.
Every time I am at the mall I go see the puppies. They are insanely cute. However, seeing them makes me a little upset- 99% of all puppy stores get their puppies from puppy mills and there are so many loving, deserving animals in shelters. Sure, getting a purebred or designer puppy might ensure what you are getting in terms of size and temperament, but come on… Please consider a shelter...

Yesterday we had a lot of fabulous Vivaldi during church- a few violins, violas, a cello, trumpet, and oboe along with the extended choir (even the people who rarely put the robe on came out for the xmas program). It was great. The best part however, was a little girl- maybe 2 or 2 1/2 years old in the congregation. After every song, she would yell “YAYYYYYYYYYYY!” in her little...

I need to satisfy my concert "fix"...
resunsaysdope: It’s almost been a month…. I feel like everybody else I see live will just be a repeat…. I’ve basically seen who I wanted to see (Hip-Hop speaking): Mos Def, Nas, MURS, Q-Tip (Solo), A Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul, Jay-Z, Lupe, Wale, N.E.R.D. (If you want to call it hip-hop), Clipse, Kanye….the list goes on…. I just want to see DOOM and Common live, and then I’ll have seen...

I appreciate your advice Miss Patty,
but… I went with the 09 Sable and I love it! I know Subaru and Toyota are the shit but Ford-Mecury has really stepped up its game in the last two years. We will go for a ride in my ride. It will be delightful. Love, Merry PS no one told me I had a typo in the original post. damn!

I GOT MY PHONE BACK!
Sadly it was stolen by a student. Luckily the student’s mom found it and brought it to school herself with a bag of other stuff that her daughter took from other people. I AM SOOOO HAPPY TO HAVE IT BACK.

Did I tell you this?
My lovely smartphone was stolen yesterday- or lost. Either way it was at work… sooo my phone is in a black hole of art supplies or one of my elementary students walked off with it. I really hope its just lost and that it turns up soon. Until then, I’ve got my little sister’s old LG flip phone, baby phat case and all. My mom bought it for her thinking the cats were cute- she has...

Ok tumblrs, what do you think?
I’ve narrowed my car search down to three choices. They aren’t by any means final but it gives you an idea at least. I appreciate your input, here are my 3 choices in no particular order: 2009 Ford Escape 4x4 - 14,000 miles, $18k, 4WD for all the snowy midwest weather, basic interior, higher off the ground, somewhat poor mpg esp. compared to the other two cars, roomy and awesome...

holy shitballz! Lucia that house is amaaaaaazing.
luciaislucky: sarahmc: You are SweetHomeStyle now. Yeah maybe on reader submission day! or as I should say Thanks!! Though for serious you guys, I’m going to feel so weird/outta place when I first move in. I’m going to be too nervous to touch anything because my mom always told me that I’m not allowed to have nice things since I break them. And I’ll probably walk around with windex in my...

No! Not another bad thing!
My car broke last week so I have to buy a new used one asap. Today I lost my phone at school OR one of my students stole it. Either way I hope I get it back tomorrow at work. Fuck.

Married Dating & Affairs | The Ashley Madison... →
iamdooser: Is this for real? Gag. WHY. I hate affairs, dating or married. Tiger Woods you are a disappointment and just a reassurance that so many men and women think affairs are a good idea. NOOOO.

Oh cars!
I’m in the market for a new used car. I went to a dealership today and they showed me around in a 2009 Mercury Sable… MSRP $30k but they have it listed at $19k! Its full-pimp with leather seats, woodgrain interior, seat warmers… oh baby oh baby. Its at the top of my price range but sooo luxurious.
