Rambly Bambly time.

Official Cover Working on Witness to the Moon this week.

What do I have to ramble about today? My brain is a mess because I’m trying to do a bunch of things at once. My mom asked if I’d make some homemade bread and banana bread. Now I couldn’t make the traditional banana bread that I personally make because we have no sour cream so I made a traditional banana bread like most people make. For the regular bread, I made Challah bread. We love to snack on it. I don’t do the braid, I do a regular loaf. And when I make it, I dump everything into the bread machine, then turn it to dough cycle. My hands no longer can stand the kneading motions.

Here is a good (read: similar) recipe for the Challah bread that I make. I’ll try and get my own recipe up here soon. http://ift.tt/1YtS0nR

Sure, you can take the time to braid and do it all nicely, but I don’t. My method of cooking involves dumping everything into a bowl and mixing. haha Seriously. I really do that. I dump all ingredients for the banana bread into a giant bowl (I doubled the recipe so we could also have a loaf) and then mixed it up. None of that mix wet, then dry bidness for me. I ain’t got time fo that! Most of the time I do it now. Do it for my biscuits, cookies, etc., and I still get compliments on my cooking.

Had a heck of a time with my laptop working slow today so I’m surprised I got as many words as I did.

The story was fine, the laptop and programs kept hiccuping though. Drove me nuts. I’d have to pause and wait for it to catch up. Needless to say I issued the laptop a lot of very dirt “shape up or ship out” looks. Please don’t ship out laptop, I do love you. :D

Lucy gets spayed tomorrow.

You wanna send her some prayers and healing vibes, that’d be lovely. She is our 9-lbs Shih Tzu darling baby. Seriously. She has my brother wrapped around her little tootsies. Being so small we’re concerned that everything will go all right. It’s a normal procedure I am aware, but that doesn’t mean it’s not a concern. After her, the only one left to fix will be Cheyenne. Our black beauty. I’ll share a Lucy Goose (one of my many nicknames for her) photo –

Isn’t she cute?

Silent relaxing sunday--wait it's Saturday. A day lost and found! :)

This week's GBE is about "Lost and Found." I know a lot of people some years back thought that I'd lost myself. I was even told it was the better part of myself. It took me years to figure out that it wasn't true. Somewhere in the back of my mind, I always believed it to be true. Until I finally had the courage to admit to myself, that they were in the wrong; not me. That's the problem with some "friends." They aren't really your friends. Someone recently told me something that really hit home. It was profound even. She said: "The friend is not a friend. just a person with emotional gravity in your life." Well that's true. Granted, the comment she had made was from a completely different happening, but still it works. A lot of people are fortunate in having tons of close friends, even close friends that stick around their entire lifetime. I gave up on that notion a long time ago. I realized that mostly, friends w...

(GBE 2:Blog On) First Love

Old post being reposted. GBE2: Blog On's Topic this week is: First Love Click the link to find out what GBE2: Blog On is and how YOU can participate. If you love writing and/or blogging, it's the place to go! Great people, great fun, what more could you ask for? FIRST LOVE When I first saw the topic for this week's GBE2, my first thought was of the friendship I walked away from just last week. He was one of my first love's. But I had already talked about it on a previous web post so I wanted something different. I just didn't want to focus on it. Today, while I was doing dishes, a.k.a inspiring myself, I thought of a different first love. To myself. I do too. I love myself. I may not always like myself... I mean come on, if you had to live with her 24/7 she might drive you batty too. But I do love myself. People can tell you so. I don't need to. Well I did, but... I'm digressing. I'm quirky, crazy (two different things there obbb...

(GBE2: Blog On) Let go of the reins and you'll know freedom

This week's (4th) GBE2: Blog On topic is "Control." For more info head here I admit it, I'm a type-A personality. It was a learned behavior. I felt as though I needed to be in constant control of everything around me. I worked 3 jobs and went for weeks on occasion without a day off. I still felt as though I wasn't doing enough. Not around the house, not with my friends, not for dating, not even for work. I just have always had this "I'm not doing enough" attitude instilled in me from a lot of the immediate people around me. So a lot of my behavior was ingrained so deep that I still suffer with that. I feel as though no matter what, I'm not doing enough, being the best I can be, and all of that great unhealthy attitude one should not have. But I do. And I know it's not good, but I still suffer with feeling inadequate because I am just not doing enough. Which is wrong. It's just something that I suffer with. I admit to it....
