Jars (:


These two jars, are currently my LIFE.

The first little one, has about 9 strips of paper rolled up inside of it. It was an idea I got from Pinterest, and it's one of those things where I'll add another strip of paper each time I make a memorable accomplishment, or have an experience I don't want to forget, and then on New Years of 2013, I'll open up the jar and re-experience everything I did from this year... Kinda better than attempting to complete a New Years Resolution, maybe?

The second, big jar is a work in progress... Starting sometime last year, and working until I get married. No joke. I told mom I'm dead set on going to Tahiti for my honeymoon, and she said she's not paying for it... So... I've got a good $39.30 worth of change in that jar. Clever right? Cause I'm not going to break open that jar unless there's hard cash in it. If anyone feels obliged to add to my collection, as Lumierre so nicely puts it, Be my guest!

Second Chances.

We're all given 2nd chances at some point.
That was me, yesterday.


Olivia and I were just going about our business... I built a snowman of her and a boyfriend... And she built ...A snow toilet. Quite frankly it looked more like a washing machine... 




Then we looked at the clock, 12:50pm. I reshaped Olivia's snow-toilet into the bottom of a snowman... Or snow-woman. We named it Shlaire, after a friend.


Shlaire looked so good, with her long locks of hair, we decided we needed a better picture of us with her.... But there was no one but my dog around to do that... An hour later, after filling up on pizza and apple juice... We found someone.


Such a good best friend picture!

Then Olivia asked if he wanted a picture with me...


And then I asked if he wanted a picture with Shlaire...


We struck up a good conversation, finding out his grade and school he goes to... And his name! And he's been our neighbor for a couple years! He didn't just move in! He departed looking very confused, and the moment we stepped inside, we burst out laughing!! Did we just ask that kid whom I attempted to stalk before for my friend to take a picture of us and a really ugly snowwoman?! Oh yes. We did.

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.
