I finished my Granny Square Afagan today! I'm so proud!





It took me about 3 months, working on it, on and off.

#18, #19, #32, #37

#19 Was a great success. Keegan & Maddie had a great time hunting for eggs. They got lots of candy and a few toys. It was a nice day so we got to hide them all outside. I thought they found all of them, but after the lawn was mowed we found scraps of a pink egg with laffy taffy wrappers shards. Opps. :)



#37 I had been looking for the first Twilight book to read and it just so happend to be sitting on the coffee table of my house-sitting house a couple weeks ago. So I read the first book in a week and thanks to Dena am now started on the 2nd book. I enjoy them they are a nice read, but I still don't get what all the hoopla is about. Maybe you have to be a 13 year old girl/ gay boi to get it.


And now for my Failures...

#18 I was late for work one day last week by 2 minutes. I was just screwin around and lost track of time. I'm usually at least 2 minutes early. Grrrr!

#32 Being that I'm missing a string and have been for about 2 years. (i've been playing mom's guitar). I have yet to open my guitar case! Oh well. Every other week was a bit ambitious.

Tweaks need to be made...

While looking at my 101 list I've noticed a lot of my #s are pretty darn vague and hard to pin point. That said I'll be making some changes and will be re-posting my edited list soon. But will not start counting 1001 days all over again. A date is a date. :)

#29 & #24 kinda


I got paid yesterday and Mom was on Spring Break so I took her to Red Lobster. We had a great time and my friend Emily was our waitress.

This isn't on the list but I did go out with my Cousin Holly. We can tie it into #24 cause I called her and then we decided we needed to get together. We had a great night on the town, dinner, coffee, drinks & kareoke. Both in our red high heels,totally unplanned by the way.
