Product Recommendation – Hair Color

I’ve decided to start something new on my blog!
I buy A LOT of random beauty products.  Especially hair products and make-up.  Some of it is REALLY cheap…some of it, not so cheap.  Some of it I really love…some of it I throw away or return. 
So, when I find something that I really love, I am [...]

Sunshine, on a Cloudy Day

The title of this post has nothing to do with it’s contents.  But…today was a very sunny, yet cloudy day, so I find the words fitting.
I realized something today.  Throughout my time here, I’ve always been blessed with something to look forward to.  When you make a major life change like this…there are good days [...]

A Bra is a Girl’s Best Friend

Read this story about a hiker lost in the mountains that used HER BRA to signal for help. 

Funny Enough to Post

I got this forward today…and I thought it was REALLY funny. : )
In case you ever get these two environments mixed up, this should make things a little bit clearer.
In PRISON
You spend most of your time in a 10X10 cell
At WORK
You spend most of your time in a 6X6 cubicle
In PRISON
You get three meals a [...]

A Slumber Party

I had one of those moments a few weeks ago where I spoke without thinking.  My sister was talking about my niece’s (12th) birthday party.  I offered to have my other niece (6) over for the evening to get her out of the house for the party.  Then…I told K (my niece) that she could [...]

Choosing Happiness

TGIF. This week has been insane. There are a lot of things going on at work. Most of them not directed at me, but it is making for a very tense work day regardless. I have so much trouble focusing when everyone is on edge. I’m hoping to spend this weekend not thinking about work [...]

Pictures

My mom sent me the sweetest envelope this week.  I picked it up at the post office on Sunday.  I wasn’t having a great day…and the old pictures that she included in that package really cheered me up.
She sent a black and white picture of my step-dad that I love.  She sent several pictures of [...]

One More

This is my FOURTH post of the day.  Am I procrastinating?  I think so.
These pictures are from the short hike that Steph and I took to Exit Glacier.  It was an extremely neat experience.  The first picture shows Steph and I standing next to the toe (base) of the glacier.  The second pictures shows the [...]

Nature vs. Nurture

So…I’ve been thinking about trying to pot flowers to put by the front door of my apartment.  The options were numerous…and I couldn’t make up my mind! 
I decided to pot vegetables instead.  Pretty sure this won’t work but I’m giving it a try!  Plants tend to do really well in AK this time of year [...]

AK Wild

Steph and I were able to catch the final Alaska Wild (indoor football) home game of the season.  A friend at work gave me two tickets…great seats. 
Oddly enough…the Alaska Wild was playing…THE FRISCO THUNDER. 
The game was pretty fun…the wild won. 
A picture of the teeny tiny football field…

And really…could the mascot be anything other than a [...]
