It’s a new month and my body has decided to start it off with a cold. Yaay! I have the worst sore throat ever. I guess it has something to do with the weird weather that we’ve been having. One day it’s about 80 degrees, chilly and raining, and the next day it’s about 95 degrees, hot and humid. Gotta love hate the summer! I’m so looking forward to the fall! I was planning to get some drawing in since I don’t have work until later, but my baby cousin wanted to come hang out with me. Actually, it’s more like my Gram was getting annoyed with her and I had to save her.
How do you get annoyed with a 4 month old! She’s so sweet and precious. My Gram hates when she cries or fights sleep. Duh, that’s what babies do! I don’t know how she managed to have 8 kids with no patience. Smh. I’m about to wrap this little update up because the baby wants some attention. I don’t mind catering to her. That’s probably why she loves me the most. Haha. Hopefully I can update again soon. I pray this sore throat goes away soon too.
I’ve created a music monster. There was a time when my mom could either take or leave music, but now she’s addicted to it just like me. I listen to all types of music, but she only listens to Christian and worship music. She’s even got me hooked on a lot of artists, especially Jeremy Camp. She’s gotten so serious about her music that she’s been buying a bunch of CDs without my knowledge and then offering to “let me hear them”. The funny thing is that I like her music more than I like my own!
The only downside to her newly discovered addiction is that she needs a place for all of this music. She’s already filled one MP3 player and is in need of a new one. She needs to just buy a large capacity iPod. I love ipods and think they offer a lot of space and features. Hopefully she can find one that holds all of the CDs she’s been purchasing behind my back!
My mom and I have a really amazing relationship. One of the many sweet things that she does for me is giving me flowers. She loves to randomly buy me flowers and bring them home as a surprise. I love receiving them as well. This is something that we’ve been doing for many years. When I was younger I would always order her $1 carnations for special occasions. They were kind of cheap, but hey, I wasn’t even a teen then. She loved them anyway. Now she’s the one who’s constantly ordering the flowers.
I’m usually not a huge flower lover, but I’d be lying if I said receiving flowers as a surprise doesn’t give me a great feeling inside. It makes you feel special and thought about. If there is someone special in your life I’m sure ordering summer flowers for them would be a great way to let them know how you feel about them. It’s a guaranteed way to put a smile on someone’s face!
I really love watching video reviews online. I’m a member of that popular video sharing website and I subscribe to a few people who do reviews on a variety of different products. The other day one of the girls that I subscribe to uploaded video reviews on makeup, a teeth whitener and a diet pill. Talk about random! It was cool to hear what made her decide to try the products that she chose and what type of experience she had with each. To be honest, after hearing her reviews I wanted to try all of the stuff she talked about.
I’m really interested in seeing what her experience with the diet pill will be like over time since she’s only been taking it for a few weeks. I like to watch diet pill reviews because I do think a lot about taking them although I never have in the past. It’s good too see what average people think of them.
