I love this!

Thoughtful Thursday

Outside my window...a cold day, altering between snow and clear skies. More snow please! I need to shoot some wintery engagement sessions this Sunday

I am thinking...how much I would love a hot chocolate right now, maybe some cookies. I can't remember the last time I had hot chocolate. It's been over a month. I should go home soon and veg with a hot chocolate.

I am reading...other blogs. I am working, really...just batching images and reading blogs.

I am creating...a more colorful home. I love decorating

One of my favorite things...lip chap. I love the feeling of lip chap on my lips...strange I know!

A few plans for the rest of the week...pay bills, get some groceries, I have a dinner date, 6 more photo sessions this week, I wish I had time to paint

Ms. sings for the phone

I had a massive headache this day but am feeling pretty good on tylenol 3, lol. Jordian wanted to play with my phone so I had her sing to me in exchange . The video is dark as it was low lighting.

I'm very spoiled

I've got wine, chocolates and flowers delivered to work by some clients this month.

Another sleepover

My son has a ton of sleep overs. The kids are fantastic and I love having them over. I thought it was hilarious when I walked in the door and they all had their laptops.

My sister made these hamburger cupcakes for a party this weekend. I got to eat one -- YAY! I love cupcakes. More, I love Macs confused face!

#3 smile

I got the last cupcake...which was ok cause Brad had one in his lunch today ;)

#2 smile

Today I smiled when I found out one of my friends shoveled my doorstep at work

new space

We have gone from this:

To this:

My son and his friends are often on the computers so I thought I would make them their own little space so I no longer have cords and computers running across the room or taking over my coffee table.

#1 smile

When I came home from the studio today my son and his friend were eating hamburgers and telling me how they cooked them. I laughed at them because they thought they were eating meat burgers but they were my vegetarian burgers. When I told them what they were the reply was "ohhh, so that's why they looked different when we cooked them"

So in attempt to complete: 63. blog one thing that has made me happy for 30 days in a row

off my list of 101 things to do in 1001 days here I start Day 1

1st bake of the year

By no means do I at all consider myself domestic...at all.

I'm not a great cook. I cook very simple. I hardly bake. I'm not very crafty. I've learnt that I am now a terrible sewer. My house is never entirely clean...I struggle with the laundry room. And only recently have I tried to decorate.

Anyway, in my attempt to become more domestic I asked for a mixer for Christmas so I can start to bake again. I think I use to have one but lost it in a move from one place to another. So, my mother got this mixer for Christmas

I decided to try to bake some cupcakes

The finished project:

We have 24 but only kept 6 for ourselves.

I think I usually start out baking in the beginning of the year and it slowly goes away.

me today

I did not drink last night but I feel terrible. I've been on the couch watching trash tv or sleeping since I got home from my night out last night.

I went to a comedy club. It was a great time. We had a five course dinner followed by the show. It was something I always wanted to do so I'm glad I got it checked off my list

I ate close to half that bag today. Good luck to me and keeping my abs in my 30's eh?!!
