He Makes My Soul Happy

It's like good soul food. Hits the spot and never disappoints.  I have fallen in love with Mr. Lidell's rough voice and good beats.  Go ahead take a listen and before you know it you'll be tapping your feet.  Good music just does me right every time!

{I will say his dancing and mannerisms in this music video are a bit odd-but he's just feelin' the groove-can't blame a man for that!}

To The Moon And Back

{Hot chocolate. Good friends. Moon lift ride.}

A night to remember!

One Of My Favorite Weekends

I look forward to this weekend twice a year. It's General Conference weekend which means not only do I get to listen to the good word, I also get to stay in my pj's for two days and eat some comfort food.

I also plan on baking a bit, perhaps making some monkey bread and some apple cake. It's a full moon this weekend so I am taking advantage of it. I am going to do the Sundance full moon lift ride.

Do weekends get better than this? I think not.

PS. {I just bought my ticket to g0 here for Thanksgiving week, I can't wait!}

We Took A Stroll...

We ended up in the most beautiful palette of colors.

The Reality Of It

I am a victim.

A victim of getting sucked into the world of reality shows. I don't know what it is about reality television that lures me in so much that I can't pull myself away; but it has a mesmerizing effect on me and before I know it I have to tune in every week.

My all time favorite show The Amazing Race starts tonight and I am thrilled! Now I must clarify there is bad reality television and good reality television. The Amazing Race is most definitely under the good reality section in my book.

Let the race begin!

PS. I might also like some reality television such as this and this-I admit this might fall under the bad reality section. What's a girl to do?

Tick Tock Tick Tock

I need more hours in the day!!

Yes I know you are all thinking the exact same thing, you all want those blessed hours just as much as I do.  It's 11:55 as I write this post and I am going through my day thinking to myself, "Did I get everything done I needed to?  What did I do today?"

Well I will give you an idea.  

I woke up late, this is no shocker.  I am alway running late...typical latina chica here!

I realized I had a meeting I had to get to.  So I ran into the shower.  I hate taking fast showers.  I think showers should be a long and relaxing process.  I hurried so fast I don't think I shaved my legs properly, meaning there are spots with hair-not attractive.  While getting ready the boss called to remind me that we had a meeting.  She knows me all too well to be calling to remind me to be on time.  I assured her I was hurrying.  

Luckily the lights were all green on University Avenue.  It was lovely! I was making good time and for once this week NPR was not blabbing about Obama's health care reform.

Made it to the meeting, a bit late of course.

Work was good.

After work I went to my madre's for dinner because I wasn't in the mood to cook.  Such a shameful confession.  But the parentals house is on my way home.  On nights where I just want to be taken care of I go home to Marta's splendid cooking.

I then watched my brother Michael show me his new breakdancing moves.  That was just good entertainment.

Worked out

Grey's Anatomy premiered tonight.  I was loving that it was 2 hours long.  But so sad George died.

Now I am home.  Looking at my room.  The pile of clean clothes not put away.  The post-it notes that have my to-do lists on them that have not been checked off.  

This is life.

I need more hours in the day, but that ain't happening.  I need to manage my time better.  Become less easily distracted and probably blog less.  

It is now 12:21.

Tomorrow is a new day, I'll keep trying to get better at this lovely thing called life.

Goodbye Summer, Hello Autumn

Goodbye Summer, thanks to everything you brought me, some of my favorites being:

{Sunshine, blue skies, bright pedicured toes, flip-flops, bbq's, lazy summer evenings, tan lines, camping, smore's, swimming, snow cones, watermelon, flowers to name a few}.

Hello Autumn, you and Spring rival as my favorite seasons. I look forward to:

{Crisp nights, cardigans, apple crisp, boots, scarves, leaves changing colors, pumpkin carving, warm drinks, cozy fires, corn mazes, harvest moon to name a few}.

I love the changing of seasons...means new beginnings.

Let the change begin!
