Really now??

Holy cow!! So you wouldn't believe went down today!!

First let me tell you that when you have a cast and crutches people totally treat you differently! every time I go out with the 'rents there's always someone there waiting to ask if I'd like a wheelchair or scooter. It is so crazy you guys. I may not be driving the roads yet but I am so approved to drive through the following places; Costco, AFW {and I get to chill on their furniture}, any dept store, and even the grocery stores trust me. I am getting so good at driving these things around it is so fun. Ha ha so shouldn't be allowed but hey it keeps me entertained while I'm out with mum.

So while at Costco today I was in checkout chillin in my motorized cart when these cute grannies I'd been people watching the entire time while we were in there came up behind us. I was minding my own bizness when there's a hand on my shoulder, some mumbling that I can't make out, and some petting of my hair. Ha ha NO JOKE

These ladies were petting my hair!! Never experienced that before. They just said oh honey your hair is so pretty and soft. The color is beautiful, makes me want to be young again. Oh my tuna you guys it was priceless. Still super weird but whatev they are old so I issued them less accountable in that department.

Out of control LOVE!

I have some new found time in my life...some of which I've been investing in TV land! It's the best guys-seriously! But that's not all I've been doing

-HERE-

{obsession number one}

Spending endless hours sleeping!
It's the most amazing thing but lately it's tiring ;)

{obsession number two}

watching reality tv como que reality?? Yes you read right...let's see Survivor, Amazing Race, America's Next Top Model, Dancing with the Stars I never knew besides AMNTM that there was anything else worth my time and devotion! I love Dancing with the Stars! Go team Chito!!


{obsession number three}

READING!! Okay so I already love to read...
But now I spend at least an hour of my own time each morning and night
but I have a friend who will read with me too.

{obsession number four}

I have so much time that I've been investing it in learning to use the

wait for it - wait for it

Bump-its

AND made me comfortable enough to attempt it.

Promise they are NOT as hard to use but I so don't use the user manual.
I wrote my own!

{obsession number five}

Building on the friendships I already have...I'm just obsessed with having friends.
What a wonderful blessing!!

{obsession number six}

Don't judge! It's my time and I'll do with it what I want!


LOVEs*

some joy in my day

So I have a new cast. It's the one color I told myself I wouldn't get...dun duh duh PINK! I love pink but as a new extra appendage?? I don't think so. But I did think so obviously and now here I am with a pink cast. It was so funny getting it cut of, and not fun. Halfway through the process I just pulled it off because it's been so lose.

But I found this cute picture of someone who makes me smile without fail. She is the darnedest thing and so adorable. Plus has the most amazing parents and siblings that I love just as much. Her name is Bai and I could spend all day every day with her and never get sick of her!

I made it!

So since surgery and being on bed rest I have loads of time to do next to nothing. Which is pretty much how I like it for the most part. Sleep is the best medicine for recovery-did you guys know that? While sleeping your body works extra hard to repair and recover. It's so cool what our bodies can do!

Anyways when I do feel up to actually absorbing what I find to do I choose to check in on my google reader. Now in the last three weeks I have accumulated over 1000+ posts to read. Keep in mind I also hadn't really been keeping up on it for the several weeks leading up to surgery. I knew I would have plenty of time.

SO now that I lay in bed with the laptop all day I read a post here and there and kept thinking I will never be able to catch up on all my friends happenings :( But alas I just got through them and now I have nothing in my reader.

That being said, Won't somebody hurry and post so I can stalk some more?? Thanks!

I found a remedy!!

Are you feeling as if your baking skills are not where they could or should be?

Do you find yourself bored with your measuring utensils?

Are you falling asleep while there's a cake in need of immediate attention because it's about to 'fall'?

Then these measuring cups are just the thing! They will spice up any kitchen and help create some fun while you bake it up!!

No but seriously I love these-no joke. They are really cute and I think they would be a fun addition to any girls kitchen! I like them more than my long obsession with the collapsible cups!

You wouldn't believe what made an appearance this last week...SNOW!

It came and fell and the flakes where so huge and beautiful but nothing stuck around long...I got to sit from the comfort of my bed and enjoy how whimsical it all was.

So in celebration of the snow and that fact that it didn't stick around I present you with this video footage of some morning commuters scaling a neighborhood hill...it's really fun to watch enjoy. And helps us appreciate the fact that the snow didn't stick around to make our mornings like this.
