Here I was standing in the middle of my cooking area holding in my hand once again a heavy bar of expensive dark chocolate that my wonderful, handsome sometimes-clueless boyfriend gave to me for some reason, wondering one more time what the heck was I going to do with it as I stuck it back in the fridge to live another day.
This chocolate bar has been the running joke in the house for the past three months, because we were all dumbfounded when this sweet man brought it home to me. Don’t get me wrong I love chocolate and I love that he surprises me with special treats, but Sheesh! This was one heck of an expensive bar of chocolate not to mention it weighed two pounds, so it’s not something one can eat in one sitting. Continue reading “Chocolate Truffle Time”→
I found this video for my Inspirational Saturday post and this one brought tears to my eyes and reminded me that sometimes I have to slow down and enjoy my life even more, especially now during this season of my life. Being off work due to ankle surgery, hassling with insurance company for my disability and having to move into a smaller place. All these things could get me down but I’ve been blessed and the next time it rains I’m going to go and get washed. Happy Saturday my friends, enjoy!
We all have songs that remind us of specific periods and events in our lives. Twenty years from now, which song will remind you of the summer of 2014?
When I got up this morning my plan was to write a rant blog but I saw the daily prompt and since I haven’t done one in a long time I decided that I would put the rant aside cause I’m sure I will see something else that I will want to add to it.
Today’s prompt is to write about a song that will remind me in twenty years about this summer of 2014. Under normal circumstances it would be a great love song but in my opinion there hasn’t been any really good love songs since I was a teenager. But there is one song out there that was released this year that I found to be really catchy and helped make me forget my troubles when I first heard it, that song is by Pharell Williams called “Happy”.
This is just one of those songs that makes you want to get up and dance all over the place and if I could I would. This song also remind that no matter what to be happy during the good and even the bad and this has been a bad summer for me.
The second verse of the song is my favorite it says “here comes bad news talking this and that, well give me all you got and don’t hold it back, I should probably warn you I’ll be just fine, no offense to you, don’t waste your time.”
It seems I’ve had nothing but bad news coming my way all this summer, with ankle surgery keeping me off my feet and not being able to work made my finances spiral out of control, plus I’m right in the middle of trying to move. So when I listen to this song it makes everything a little more bearable.
