Book Club Friday

"Cheeeers to the freakin' weekend...drank to that yeaaaa"

Ya I'm cheering.

And singing.

And shouting.

TGIF, baby.

I thought I'd link up with the lovely Heather for the first time eva on this Friday for some
BOOK CLUB action.

Something many of you probably don't know about me is that I love to read.

It de-stresses me.
Takes me away.
Puts me in a whole other world.
Makes my problems disappear while I'm reading.

However, during the school year I don't get to do it enough. I always think I should be reading a textbook

or doing homework, or something else productive. Ya, right...like that ever happened. But now that I'm student teaching I have a tad more time at night before I go to bed to read.

The last book I finished {maybe err two weeks ago} was The Hunger Games.

Julie, from PBFingers,  is the one who started this curiosity. She did a book review and said it was a must so I figured I'd try it. Then I tweeted how I wanted to read it badly on twitta and the oh so sweet Sierra said she would send me a copy of the book! So thank you both for the help!

Anyway.

Verdict: must read

Reading Time: 2 nights

Comments: I.could.not.put.it.down

It took me a chapter or two to get into but once it really got into the plot, I couldn't stop reading. The dynamics of the story are just unreal. I was on the edge of my seat throughout the entire book wondering what in the world was going to happen next. I almost don't even want to read the rest of the series I liked it so much. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone really. It's not my typical kind of book but I got sucked right in and think you would too! It's at least worth a try :)

Any recommendations on books?

I am always needing new ones!

& maybe I'll start remembering to return my books to the library on time.

prolly not.

HAPPY FRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDAY!!!!!

please fastforward

Can we fast forward to next August?

Or at least until Friday?

I finally get to see my main man {other than my dad of course} tomorrow after not seeing each other for three.long.weeks. The wait it almost over and I will now get to see the handsome lad every weekend now.

Lucky.Me.

Marry this Fella.

Have a HOUSE of our own.

truthful tuesday

It's that time of the weeeeeeeeeek.

Here's the TRUTH...

{well, at least some...}

I still haven't gotten the hang out this whole 8 hour work day thing.

I am exhausted.

Everynight.

I feel about 150.

Hopefully this working out will pump me back up!

I am pumped about powerstep tonight.

I did Zumba last night but pretty much just laughed at myself the entire time.

The music also wasn't the best so it was hard for me to get into it.

Powerstep, however, has some jamming music and really gets me a sweatin.

My kind of workout!

New shows all week!

Criminal Minds & Law & Order SVU.

Amazing Race

Yesssssssss.

I still don't get people.

& probably never will.....

What are you truthful for?

Ya...no button.

Sorry, I've been a bit....busy.

Forgive me.

iphone fun

Today I'm linking up with Erin & Savanah for some

FUN WITH OUR PHONE Monday!

Being that my phone has 1,429 photos on it, maybe I should have started

linking up awhile ago!

P.S. I seriously cannot make myself delete pictures. Houston, we have a problem.

JOIN IN!

Adorable puppy I saw in the back of someone's truck when I was back home this past weekend. I went over to pet it and then when I tried to leave she started crying and trying to jump out of the truck. So I stayed and kept petting her until her owner came back to the truck. Her name is Riley & she is the most adorable 9 week old black lab I have every seen. I think she wanted me to be her momma, and she licked my head telling me so. :)

This is my {my family's} little dog Gabbie. I got her for my birthday when I was around 10-11 but my unresponsible self just couldn't manage to get up at two in the morning every night so she got passed to my momma. She is a part of the family and I love that dog so much. Even when she claws my face because I stop petting her. I swear animals are just as much family as people.

Best fried chicken & coleslaw  EVER.

Thanks for the amazing dinner & weekend :) The best parents in the world! Love them both more than words could ever say.

Me trying to see how awful I looked in these classes. Ya, definitely look like a big stinking bug. Dang it. Sunglasses and me just don't get along. If only my head would grow!

HAPPY MONDAY!!!!

surrender

On this Sunday I am simpy thankful. Thankful for all the blessings I have been given. Thanking God for providing me with a loving, wonderful family who I can always count on. Thankful to be healthy, and the ability to live the life others cannot.

Sometimes life gets in the way and I forget to count my blesssings. Sometimes I let me anger, frustration worries, etc. get in the way of all the amazing things right before my very eyes. Sometimes my vision gets cloudy. But then I am always reminded, I am blessed beyond belief. And I thank the Lord for that, and all that I have been given.

{So take you as You find me

all my fears and failures, fill my life again

I give my life to follow

Everything I believe in and now I surrender.}

There is nothing like it.

Nothing.
