A few years ago I visited Antigua, Guatemala and held orphanage babies for a week.
It changed my perspective.
I was digging in my boxes and found this painting that used to hang in my office.
I got it in Antigua. I love it.
So I hung it up... to remind me of those little babes.

I am still cleaning. I have a LOT of stuff. As the process continues, I now have multiple boxes and tubs of clothes and other things that I don't want. I need to get rid of them. Garage sale? Coming soon! I hope!

Usually I make the lovely butterfly cookies for each Chrysalis weekend.
The process of making those cookies took an unexpected turn and instead this time I made rice krispie butterflies. Cheaper, faster, but not nearly as lovely.

West Ohio Girls' Chrysalis #53
SO many weekend I have spent at Greene Street.
So many blessings.

This bag of coffee single handedly (is that a word?!) kept my eyes open and my mind focused for the Chrysalis weekend. Thank you Lord for partner markouts!

Day 3... Fly with Christ.
Butterfly day at Chrysalis! My fave!
This is my newest butterfly... but the same cross I got on my weekend almost 19 years ago.
That's insane.
But beautiful too. =)

Hmmmm... what's that? Oh nothing... just end of season clearance from Starbucks...
you know.. cause Iced Caramel VIA is basically my HEROIN.
And those cups are too cute to NOT be bought for $4!

Today I was looking at the Cabbage Patch doll little Abby got for Christmas when I realized that MY first Cabbage Patch doll (which I found a few weeks ago) looks exactly like hers. Too funny.
Jan. 19th
Blueberry Chocolate Chip Pancakes from Butter Cafe.
What I'm sayin here is... good thing I am still running!

All the baggers at Kroger think I am cool (obviously) and they really love my shoes.
Cool I am... well dressed? Not so much!
Anyhoo... I wear these Sanuks with my black work pants and apparently that's cool.

Yes. Please.
Jan. 22nd
I am cleaning (did I mention that?!).
I have discovered that for someone who does not enjoy shopping, I own an awful lot of stuff.
Although most of it comes from Target... and I do love me some Target!
None the less. I MAY have a slight problem with too many hairbands.
Maybe.
Jan. 23rd
Baby Abby wears little pink Converse.
I think that is AMAZING.
Jan. 24th
Today a lady came through my line at Kroger.
She bought Twix mini ice cream bars.
She opened them up and gave me and my bagger each one.
AMAZING.
#1. They are GOOD.
#2. Some people are just GOOD.
#3. YAY for ice cream on the job!

Today I got my partner card in the mail from Starbucks.
I know... how jealous are you?!
Really though... its just a fancy, official way of saying... don't forget to get a pound of coffee each week.
Anybody want some coffee?....
Jan. 26th
"Find the Roast you love the most" is back at Starbucks.
I'm not working it this round... but we did get loads of free Blonde roast samples.
if you want one... swing by Brown Street....
Jan. 27th
It's my older sister's 37th birthday today. We went to TGI Friday's to celebrate.
Not my favorite restaurant... but we had fun and ate lots of cake and spinach dip (random combination, I know). None the less... Happy Birthday Kristin!
and finally Jan. 28th
As soon as I finish this I have made a commitment to do my tax return.
Seriously.
Sitting on my bed is probably not the ideal place to work on this.
None the less...
Here goes...
