30 minutes for me!


My 30 minutes for me today was spent having a break with College Girl.   We went and had a meal, well she had ice cream.  And enjoyed just time to visit, talk and catch up.

This was a legit 30 minutes for me because I have missed her so this last few weeks.  She has been so busy with school, plays and life in general.  It did my soul a world of good to hear her tell me of her daily life.  And more so to see her relax and enjoy.

So a sneaky way to indulge....but an indulgence for me anyway.

And while we were out we saw this lil miniature cafe.  All set up with tables and chairs outside of it.  But gosh darn it...look at the hot dog on the table.  Would that not be almost the complete size of the person who would sit in the chairs?  So who could eat that much?  I know picky but made us giggle anyway.


Daily Meme

I want to introduce a new daily meme that I am starting up here today.  It came when I thought of how I have a hard time doing something for just me.  It has always been easier to do for my family, friends or community.  But it is important for me to learn to do something for me.  So I am taking up this challenge. 

I am going to do something for just myself 30 minutes every day.  It does not have to be amazing.  Just something that I enjoy that makes me feel good.  Everyday I will post what it was in my 30 Minutes for Me Today!  It will be posted over there------->  Yeah, in the column right over there. 

I challenge you to also take this up.  For if we learn to take care of ourselves and make us happy then we are able to do better for our family too.  So today's was this.....

I stopped and picked me up a chocolate dipped waffle cone....and ate it all.  Smiling the whole time.  And I did not do this for everyone else.  Nope, just me sitting in the car, relaxing and enjoying my ice cream cone.

So what did you do for you today?

First: I am frightened of water bugs and spiders! When I see them I scream, holler and threaten my Dear Hubby that he will never hear the end of it if that "creature" does not die. He laughs. Ok he will kill a water bug but no a spider ever. He saves the lil monsters every time. What can I do when I am perched up on top of the toilet or chair?


Second: I am a really nervous person but have learned how to cover it up really well! Most people think that I am bold and outgoing but inside I am nervous of what people think of me. I have learned to just keep this bold front up and hide those anxieties and fears.

Third: My favorite color is PINK. But, when I was younger I always wore browns and blues. I hid with those colors. Made myself non-descript. That way I blended in to the crowd. Now I have learned to be brighter. And to enjoy all those colors that are in the rainbow. But I still love that girly pink the most of all.


Fourth: I have hammer toes. LOL Ok a lot of people do. But I do like that my shoes are at least half a size smaller because my toes curl in the way they do. Everything about me is so big I want something to be smaller. So I take those lil things where ever I can.

Fifth: I am becoming a book reviewer. As a matter of fact you will see a review this week if not sooner. LOL I adore reading and am so happy to find I can review books now. Don't you love the idea of getting to share with others what you enjoy!

Sixth: I am an avid blog reader. I am pretty good about commenting daily on the blogs I follow. But I make sure to always read all the blogs I follow. So add me to you and I will check you out too! Just remember I have been dubbed the Comment Queen!

Hope you liked my 6 things. Now I get to tag six of y'all. Ok here it goes:
