Steamy Oats and Holiday Mints

Papers. Does anyone else have trouble getting them started? Now that midterms are over I have several paper due dates looming in the next few weeks and I find the hardest part is getting them started. I never know where to begin! So I put them off. That certainly doesn’t help. I’m working on trying [...]

Spring in November and Danger Squash Slicing

Sunday
Sunday was gorgeous. I think Spring is making a brief reappearance. It was basically warm enough to wear t-shirts outside. And last week there was brief snow. What’s going on Weather? I’m not complaining though, I’ll take warmth over snow any day. I’m not looking forward to winter… brrrrr.
I started the morning off the [...]

A Simple Weekend

The weekend has come to a closer. Where’d it go?! Oh I know. It went to work, shopping, eating and lazing. This was a pretty tame one for me. Didn’t mind at all though! I really appreciated the tameness of just doing what I felt like after spending the last couple [...]

Wednesday
This was [...]

Blame it on the Rain

So my Monday wasn’t so Marvelous after all. I think it was like the anti-marvelous. Just one of those days where the world is against you. I didn’t really love it. But it’s gone and done and we’re onto Tuesday, a day for which I have had no expectations of greatness nor dismality (don’t [...]

Pasta Attacks and Weetabix Family Fun

One word for today: BLAH.
I spent almost the entirety of it on my bum, laptop and textbooks glued to each side of me, scanning page after page of blurring words in attempts to be somewhat caught up with the chapters and chapters of readings I should be done by now. I’m not a fan of [...]

RIP Topaz

This Tuesday I experienced a small tragedy. My car was killed.
I was driving home from work. There was a variety store on the corner. Two cars up from me, the driver decided last minute to turn into the parking lot of said store. He stopped fairly quickly, as did the van [...]

Welcome Back Laptop

A few months ago I always used my laptop for picture uploading and blogging. My laptop uses Windows Vista. Then my laptop stopped working. I took it in to get repaired. In the meantime I was using our non-Vista PC.
Several weeks later I got my laptop back. I continued, instead, [...]
