Saturday, January 8, 2011!

The Parable project scotch doubles tournament was today.... all day, all night!  It was a great success - I raised $774 !  I am thankful for everyone that came out to support me.

Friday!!!    I know I skipped a day... forgot to take a picture yesterday.  Anyways, its funny the difference between the people that drink coffee verses the ones that drink soda.  My office provides both for free.  When we run out of soda, I never know because no one tells me.  But when we run out of coffee, watch out.  It's like the place is gonna burn down!  This is what I had on my monitor at work when I arrived Friday morning....

So after draining my account yesterday to pay a ticket, what better way to start the new year then learning how to take control of your finances!  I'm attending Dave Ramseys Financial Peace University class.  It is every Wednesday for 3 months.  Hopefully I will learn a lot.  :-)

Today I had to drive to Sussex, VA to go to court for my ticket I got back in October.  I decided to go to court because I haven't had a ticket since I was 19 and wanted it dropped.... After a few hours of driving, the judge reduced my ticket to speeding 9 miles over the speed limit and charged me $261.   yay.  So now I'm broke.  Don't speed... its not worth it.  :-(

Work.  Got to work this morning to a floor full of water in the break room.  A water bottle had leaked all over so after mopping up the floor (with paper towels - we don't actually have a mop.) I replaced the water bottle on the cooler only to have no water come out of the cooler... of course I have no picture documentation of any of this.  I imagine I will get better as the days and months go on with this picture a day thing.... but until then my pictures are not going to be too great.  So now that I'm home, I'm lazy again.  (this is typical of me when I'm home unless I have to go somewhere) I did decide to reorganize my books.... i like the authors to be together.  In the process, I realized that I have 10 books that are doubles!  Have to take those in for store credit at readers corner.  :-)

Sunday.  Went to church, had my last coffee for the next 21 days, had late lunch with my friends Pavun and Brian, then was lazy the rest of the day.  I forgot to take pictures of the exciting stuff... but I did watch Top Gun which is a definite classic!  I loved Tom Cruise and Val Kilmer in this movie!

2011 - New Year - New Me!

So I've tried this before and as you can see from previous posts have failed.  So let's see how far I can make it this year.  A picture a day for 365 days!   I'm off to a good start.....
Picture #1 - Today I bought an area rug on craigslist for my living room. And my cat Lily loves it!   :-)
