Two of my favorite things are "Let go, and let God:" I promise I am not trying to get preachy or anything because I know a lot of my friends are not that way. I just am saying sometimes you have to let stuff go and let something or someone else take care of the problem because you cannot do it alone. Or even better sometimes things take care of theirselves! This is a hard thing for me but it always seems to work! The other thing I like is "Don't Judge me by my past, I don't live there anymore' This might not sound like advice exactly but it kind of is. Don't let you put yourself down or anyone else put you down because of things from your past. I know that my past might have made me the way I am and I have been through lots of stuff on my own that not a lot of people know about. The thing is now I am almost 30 years old and i dont think I need to be compared to the way I was when I was a child or 18 years old or whatever. I have grew up and moved on from a lot of things. Same goes … [Read more...]
BE Society Blogtober Writing Challenge Day # 2 If you could take three months off from your current life and do anything in the world, what would you do?
According to most people that I know , I have a pretty easy life. I don't work outside the house, etc. However as most of you know even so I could use a break especially with all the stuff that has happened to me in the last year or so. I don't know that I could totally take 3 months off of blogging but if I could get a change of scenery while doing it would be nice. It kind of reminds me of when I was little and I stayed with my grandparents for the entire summer. It just totally made things different! … [Read more...]
BE Blogtober Challenge Day #1 Describe where or what you come from. The people, the places, and/or the factors that make up who you are.
So I am a little late in starting the Be Blogtober challenge but I really wanted to participate so i decided to go ahead and give it a go... So where am I from you ask? well I am basically from the middle of nowhere usa! I am from the mountains of southwest virginia where it would take you an hour to get to the nearest town with a grocery store, and now as of last year they finally got a walmart! Though if you go an hour the opposite direction out of where we live they have had a walmart there for several years ;) When I was a little girl the nearest one of those was 2 hours away! It was pretty fun trying to explain it to david who is used to the city about how we lived on a STATE LINE RIDGE and not in a town or city or anything close to that at all! I grew up very close to my moms family..I mean under our hill so to speak was my grandparents aunts uncles cousins and great grandparents. I have many fond memories of summers I spent there with my grandparents and my great … [Read more...]
Signazon: Business Cards, Stickers & More
As a former teacher want-to-be and now a blogger, I have always had an obsession with paper products! I can remember when I was little and my mom was a manager for Great Clips and she had her own business cards. I thought it was the coolest thing ever! I knew that I myself wanted some of my own one day! I have had 3 sets of business cards for Autumn-Rain, and my latest batch is by far my favorite but some things have changed since I had them made, so I am def. in the market for some new ones! Also BE Society we have our cards designed but I haven’t ordered them just yet. Recently I found a site called Signazon.com and they have all types of awesome goodies to choose from including business cards, stickers and so much more. The site is well laid out, and I decided to play around and check out some of the goodies and give a few highlights! You can even browse by business or by product. Let’s start with my favorite, the aforementioned business cards! They have where you can upload … [Read more...]
Yes, this week has not panned out, not even a little bit!
This week has not panned out. AT ALL. I haven't even started my Blogtober yet! I will get it done though, one way or another. This morning I had a semi meltdown. It wasn't near as bad as the one back in July but.. UGH!! I swear sometimes I think my St.Johns Wort just doesn't kick in right because I take it so far apart sometimes. I am going to have to get better with that. I am also determined to get into a bed time routine again! I am gonna start shutting off the computer early...taking a bubble bath. drinking some tea or cider. read a book etc. I have been doing so well with stuff but for some reason the last 2 weeks just hasn't been kind to me! David managed to get the situation on paypal/ebay resolved. I don't know if i had wrote about it here but a long story short: He sold Alex's playstation on ebay and it just went to heck and a handbasket! They ended up filing a claim FOR NO REASON other than they couldn't hack it! We had to sell our 3DS so we could give Alex's money to … [Read more...]
I should take the week off at this point!
Hey Everyone! I hadn't really got to update this week and I swear at this point, I should just say I am taking the week off! I need to schedule out all my posts for the weekend and..emails.. and whatever I have forgot about! Monday I was anxious all day, so I didn't get anything done. Then, I spent monday night throwing up all night so I didn't get any rest. Then last night David was up and down half of the night so I didn't sleep well then either. Oy! I really hope I can get some rest tonight! I know that david and i had talked about going up the outside music thingy at the bar tonight since we haven't been for a while and they usually quit doing it at the end of october. Plus the weather has been really nice in the evenings and such. I guess we will see how it goes! I guess it will depend on if the weather holds and I can wake up! My hair is a total mess thanks to ??? I know it needs colored really bad but lately it seems like I am having to do it more often (straighten) … [Read more...]
