"30 Day Challenge... Day 15"

Day 15: Something or someone you couldn’t live without, because you’ve tried living without it.

It sounds so silly but its a tie between my DVR & my cell phone (iPhone). I had to go w.out a DVR in PA and there was a two day stretch, while in PA that an ATT tower in my area was down and I had ZERO cell service. 

I love my DVR because I am so busy from the time I get home with getting dinner on the table, tubbies and bedtime for my little one. That by the time I get a second to sit down all my shows are over, but thanks to the DVR I can watch them. Its coming in handy now with all the Christmas programs/movies. I really enjoy my DVR on Fri/Sat nights after E goes to bed. I mean you can watch alot on Hulu.com, but I get sick of a comp after using it for work and HW.

As for my phone, it does everything. Its my lifeline. When I had to go 2 days w.out it I felt so disconnected. It could have also been b/c I was 1000+mi away too. Haha. 

I'm sure if I HAD to, I could live w/out these things but, I've tried and NO THANKS!

One other thing I can't live w/o is JEANS! I 'collect' jeans. I have over 10 pairs. I wear jeans year round. 

...and we all know I COULD NOT LIVE W/O MY GIRL. That one is a no brainer.

"30 Day Challenge... Day 14"

Day 14: A hero that has let you down. (letter)
I am going to change this one a tad-bit; there has only been one 'hero' who has let me down and I am not ready to write a letter to that person. So I am changing it to a person who has let you down, in anyway.


Hey You,


We've been friends for a while, that means we've been through quite a bit. I love you, you are a good person and you have the best of intentions; you are a great friend. But recently or not so recently, maybe recently I just started to notice; you try to "one-up" me, on the weirdest things. There's no need for that. I am not in competition with you and you shouldn't be in competition with me, you are my friend. I don't compete with my friends, on anything. Unless its a friendly sports team thing, but thats different. When I first started noticing it, I got aggravated, now it just hurts my heart. I wish I knew why you're doing it. It leaves me wondering,  did I do something that is making  you feel that you need to "one-up" me? Just remember the next time you go to do it, think about it and realize, we're friends and there is no need for that, we're friends and you and I are NOT in competition. Please don't try and "one-up" me.    


Love,
Me


ps,
Don't ask if this letter was to you (or who it was to), I won't tell you. 
If you have to ask then maybe it was to you. If you are a "one-upper", stop. It's not a good trait to have.

"30 Day Challenge... Day 13"

Day 13: A band or artist that has gotten you through some tough ass days.

Well since I was in the womb I have listened to country. It's funny because my mom no longer jams out to country, but I still do. 24+ years later. So the only kind of music that has helped me is country. I have different playlists for different times in my life and I have been known to listen to the same songs over and over, but always country (maybe a few noncountry bands made the cut).

"30 Day Challenge... Day 12"

Day 12: Something you never get compliments on.


This is difficult, b/c my mom compliments me often and so do my friends on what a great  job I am doing with E/ what a good mom I am. She also tells me often how proud of me she is for going back to school to get my masters, working 2 jobs and keeping my house up, all by myself. 


I guess I am going to have to say that nothing comes to mind. I have people in all facets of my life that compliment me on SOMETHING. From my cooking/baking to my wardrobe, to my ability to listen, etc. 


I guess when you're single you don't expect compliments from a nonexistent s/o - friends are always better compliment givers anyways.
