Spring is...

Today it was absolutely beautiful out. It was 70 degrees. Sunny. It was the perfect spring day.
To me, spring is...
Beautiful skies of blue with big fluffy clouds

New flowers blooming 


Spending time with my dogs outside and sitting on the porch enjoying the weather


Watching my dogs run through the yard after a long (weird) winter.

What is spring to you?

Currently obsessed with...

This song!


I just found this bad recently though Young the Giant and Fun. I love this song. 

Brandy Wine

My dog Brandy does this thing when she goes to lay down where she crawls under a blanket then turns around three times. After she turns three times, the blanket is basically wrapped around her pretty good. 

Currently, she is wrapped up sleeping in my bed.


Anyway, last night, I went to bed early. I'm trying to be a better student and get on a normal sleeping habit. Having said that, I have class in a half hour and I have no intentions of going. :) Opps.

So, I had this blue blanket on the edge of my bed and I was sleeping on the other side of my bed on the pillows. Brandy goes to get under the blanket and I woke up because she was walking all over me. She walks over the the blanket and starts nudging it with her nose to go under it. She finally makes it under then starts her circles. She circles once. Circles twice. She starts her third circle then suddenly looses her balance. Her paw slips and she tumbles off the bed. I lean over the edge of the bed and she's just sitting there inside the blankets. I picked her up with the blankets and she looked at me like "What the hell just happened?"

It was pretty funny. She falls off of things a lot. But, she's okay. No worries.

Good Morning!

I'm up again early today! Crazy! But, at least it wasn't 3 am again. I didn't wake up til quarter til 5. Anyway, I went to my doctor again yesterday and he put me on a new diet. Starting it today! Pretty excited because I'm allowed cheese and eggs again

Awesome feelings

Have you ever had that feeling that everything is going good?

Or

Have you ever done something and had the best feeling?

Well for the last three years, I've had severe back pain off and on because I have three herniated discs. Well, last fall they started acting up again. I had really bad pain across my back and down my legs. It was right in time for my sisters wedding too. Well, I took pain pills to get through the wedding and ending up breaking my ankle. This is why my family calls me Grace.

Anyway, I've been seeing this new doctor for a few months now, and he is trying to straighten up my system. I haven't had pain in months. 

I was just cleaning out my stash of vitamins and medicine that I have to take. Well, I found the pain pills and relaxers and put them in the medicine cabinet. I felt so great putting those pills away. It feels like things are working out right now and I'm really excited to see where this path takes me.

No more pain. No more pills. No more holding back on life.
