three things thursday

So here I go again, for the second time. I'll post a topic, then list three things to go with it.

Three things that cost me too much money:

1. My fast-food habit... I really need to cut that out, but if you refer to my Sticky Note Tuesday, you will see that I was too lazy to go grocery shopping when I had time. 
2. Gas! Driving a minimum of 400 miles a week really adds up. I wish I worked from home... Don't you think I could telecommute to my busy HR office job?
3. Speeding tickets! Gosh I hate people tellin' me what to do! How dare they say that I should only go 55. I really like 70 better... Unfortunately, police officers did not agree with me and I have paid all-together way too much because I can't get my lay-Z booty outa' bed in time for work. 

What about you? Leave me some comment love... for what have you paid too much?

stick 'em up!

Yeah, it's late. I know. I get it... I'm behind the times. I was going to post last night and schedule and all of that, but I went straight to bed after I got home from work. But anyway, without further ado, here are my better-late-than-never stickies!

six word saturday

It's time to share my life in six words. Here goes!

After a year, she's finally here!

So my Peruvian sister is finally here. I haven't seen her since I visited in Peru last January. AND her brother is coming tonight from New York. They haven't seen each other in probably 8 years, so it's going to be one big happy family reunion. Unfortunately she's not feeling well right now, so I hope she can catch up on some sleep and start feeling better by the time everybody gets her. 

Have a great Saturday, friends, and go play along:

what the heck is that?

And now... we're going to play the "What the Heck is That?" game. It's pretty easy to figure out. Here's how it goes: first I show you a super up-close (for lack of a more specific word) then I will show you the full picture. Maybe someday I'll make a give-away from it, but this one is just for fun! Here goes.

three things thursday

So I'm starting a new feature on my blog. Every Thursday I will put up a new "Three Things." I will pick a topic and then list three things about that topic which are meaningful to me. If you want, you can play along, too. Just write your three things and link up in the comments.

THREE THINGS I WILL NEVER FORGET

1. September 11, 2001-World Trade Center bombing.
2. September 11, 2009-the birth of my beautiful nephew!
3. The time a lady paid for my whole cart-full of groceries at Walmart. It was over $100 worth. I cried. It's not that I didn't have the money, but my card wasn't swiping. Then she just paid for everything. (even my Beyonce album :) I think of her every time I listen to it) Someday I'll pay it forward!

So there you have it! What are three things you'll never forget?

stick 'em up!

My stickies:

six word saturday

Here goes for the day:

I'm here, but you are not...

I miss you and I wish we could be together. Hopefully the time will pass quickly, though. 

Play along!
