Happy Friday!!

It's getting cold here but that's OK because it's FRIDAY!!!!
link up with Lauren at the little things we do



1. My current obsession is the new line-up of fall TV shows =)


2.  My friends make me happy.





3. My greatest strength is the ability to be neutral in situtaions.





4.  Being too nice and caring (people take advantage) is my greatest weakness.





5. My life is    awesome!!! I have great things ahead of me and I can't wait for them to begin =) It' just hows how a little patience takes you far!!



6. In high school I was just there. Not an insider but not an outcast!! Had the gretaest friends which made my time there worth it!!


7. When I'm super tired i start to mumble nonsense and take really long to process convos.



HAPPY FRIDAY

It's Ok Thursday's!??

Hello All!!!
I came across Amber's blog and saw the most adorable idea =) I couldn't help but not participate!!!
So here goes nothing....



It's Ok:

to eat crumbs after you finish  baking a cake
to secretly watch "The Secret Circle" {It's not that bad =D}
to be excited about the new lineup of new TV shows this fall!!! (new girl, 2 broke girls, secret circle...)
to write down everything on notepads, post-its or lists because I'm forgetful
to take a long hot shower before everybody else gets home and your stuck with coldish water
to miss "Off The Map" and hoping it'll come back on air!!!
to start one DIY and another and another and not finish any until months later
to realize you watch way too much TV after making this list
to be excited in joining "It's OK Thursdays" =)

Remembering...

A day to remember all those whose lives were lost. To the families whose lives will be forever changed. To the heroes that arose from ordinary people.

Missing...

DOG?


Well sort of...

We moved a year ago to a more rural area or in better words more hidden from society
Our neighbors have horses, roosters, chikens, cows and who knows whatelse....

In our old place our dear Charlie took a lot of walks.
He even found his way home one day when my dad let him loose at the park and couldn't find him afterwards

 Where we moved to has A LOT of ground to let's say explore.

So
When I took the recycle and trash out this afternoon our beloved canine decided he'd take a stroll.
A mid-afternoon walk.
He's used to being outside and not running away.
 Our yard isn't fenced in but we NEVER had to worry about that.

When I called him to come inside there was no Charlie running towards me
I go to the backyard thinking maybe he's taking care of business
NO Charlie
I go inside thinking he's already there
NO Charlie
I double check outside and inside the house
NO Charlie....

 I panick
freak out
walk in circles like a idiot
not knowing what to do
and call my dad to find out Charlie likes to roam into our neighbors yard and chase deers or whatever animal.

2 minutes later ....
Comes Charlie all happy face that he discovered a new place to run around like crazy

Me?
Not so happy with all the space here.

At least at the end of the day Charlie is back home
=D

Hope you all had a better Friday than I did!!
