What tattoo do you want and where would you put it?
If I were to get a tattoo, I would get a beautifully done Calla Lily as it was both my mom’s and husband’s favorite flower, one of them at least. The other flower my husband loved was a sunflower, and the other for my mother was carnations. I also think of getting a calla lily and a sunflower, then maybe sprinkle carnation petals around it.
Decisions, decisions. 🙂
My mom passed away when I was 4 and my husband passed away 20 years ago in November 2025.
I am a type two diabetic and they don’t look fondly on tattoos, so I’m a little bit not sure still if I should get one.
It was a bit backhanded but I took it anyway. Since I was a young, I wanted to get into radio broadcasting, aka a DJ. I was a fan girl of several LA DJ’s and got autographed pictures of them. I didn’t have the support I wanted from my dad or stepmom, so I didn’t fulfill this dream, however, as an adult working at an answering service in my 20’s, a customer told me, “You give good phone, you should be on the radio.” I was embarrassed, but appreciated the compliment. 🙂
You’re writing your autobiography. What’s your opening sentence?
Growing up, on the outside seemed idyllic, you know, playing with neighborhood friends, riding our bikes all over, playing Kick the Can in the street, tag, kickball, dodgeball, the all American apple pie stuff, until the street lights came on, or we heard our Dad’s distinct whistle letting us know it was time to get our asses home.
You get to build your perfect space for reading and writing. What’s it like?
My perfect space would be like a little nook in my room, or add on to the house. I don’t really know what total silence is anymore, but to have a killer nook carved out, with a coffee pot close by would be just perfect to me!
Do you play in your daily life? What says “playtime” to you?
I have been up since 5:15am. I’m exhausted right now, but my play comes babysitting my granddaughter the past two weeks. She cracks me up and we just have a good time.
When I’m done babysitting, I will either go to my room and chill or go to my fiancés house, relax and ask about his day.
If I go to my room, sometimes I’ll just chill and rest or I’ll scroll, or I’ll watch tv while I clean my room, or just do whatever I want to, or not. I got 3 books for Christmas and I really want to start reading them.
It’s been raining so I haven’t really gone outside to do what I need to, but that time is coming.
Good evening everyone! I hope you all have had an AMAZING day and recuperated nicely from NY Eve!
I stayed in with my kids and granddaughter. My son in law had to work yesterday as did my son, and my son also had to work today. Thank God tomorrow is Friday and he is off on the weekend.
I cooked today. I made fried wontons using my daughter’s air fryer for the first time. I was impressed! I also made a sausage puff pastry as it is a family favorite since I made it the first time last year I believe. Here is the recipe if you ever want to try it! It’s really delicious!!
and the other one is a vegan Mac n cheese because my son in law is lactose intolerant.
So it was a feast- ful day, it just so dang long to get it all done.
Of course I had to take time out to babysit my granddaughter, who is such a joy and light of my life, she’s so funny! At 18 months, her personality is showing and I believe she is quite the Gemini! LOL or maybe it’s just that she’s heading into her two’s…. You know what I’m saying?! LOL
What did you all do today?
I really just wanted to hop on and wish you all a very prosperous new year, full of the many blessings that are waiting for YOU! Do any of you make resolutions? Share if you wish, I understand if you don’t want to. ❤️
I can ‘t believe it was 68 years ago this day that my Guy was born! He doesn’t look his age, but the years of pounding the pavement as a Letter Carrier have definitely caught up to him! He still carries on as the saying goes, you can’t keep a good man down.
This day has started off really good! First of all, I woke up! Any day above ground is a blessing! I didn’t sleep all that great last night, I kept waking up. I was afraid I was going to oversleep as this week is Semester Finals so I had to be to work a little earlier than normal to do my morning supervision. It’s also the last week before Winter Break. Students get out at 12:45, but I have to stay until my usual work time. I’ll be busy so that’s good. Students last day is Thursday, while my last day is Friday.
While I was working, my boss called for me so I had to go meet with her. I got my evaluation. First one in 7 years! It was good! Do you know how good it feels to hear that you are appreciated and an asset to your work community? It brought tears to my eyes. I was happy and proud at the same time. Last year I had 3 months of nonsense and it really took a toll on me, I felt. Bosses changed so I had to change my mindset. I hated that issues affected me and people tried to make it hard for not only myself but others, but I love what I do and I wasn’t going to let it continue to affect me.
Anyway, it’s almost time, like a half hour left so I best get going. Hope you all have a great rest of your day and I will write again soon! Until then…
