Spring Fever




What a wonderful day!
50 degrees!
I couldn't be happier.
My body soaked in some natural Vitamin D.
Smiles and laughs were had ALL day!
Nate and I went for a walk around a river.
Then we had a picnic.
And fed the duckies!
I can't wait for all of the snow to be gone!
A perfect day... with my perfect man!

Clean Sheets




I'd be more than ok with this.
I think I'm getting sick.
My mind won't stop wandering.
I'm confused.
I'm ready for warmth.
Nothing better than freshly washed flannel sheets.
I'm currently hungry.
I'm down almost 8lbs.
I'm proud of myself.
My eyes want to close so badly
but my mind won't stop wandering.
I still want to be in that picture.

To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism. To steal from many is research.

A bus station is where a bus stops. A train station is where a train stops. On my desk, I have a work station.

How is it one careless match can start a forest fire, but it takes a whole box to start a campfire?

Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.

Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars but check when you say the paint is wet?

Behind every successful man is his woman. Behind the fall of a successful man is usually another woman.

A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory.

You do not need a parachute to skydive. You only need a parachute to skydive twice.
