No Worries for The Rest of Your Days

I took a sick day today. 
I figured I deserve it, since I am sick and have 24 hours of work left this week which will be rough on me since I am a baby whilst sick.

Whenever I am sick I tend to crave foods I shouldn't (cake over soup), blog more and make goals.

So I put "The Lion King" aside and got out of bed to go to the over 50 hot spot with Grandma and Mom.
$2.85 for this tea and mousse cake!  It hit the spot; so delicious.
I would like to make more trips there, I am most comfortable when surrounded by people older than me rather than my age.  Is that odd?
I'm pretty sure I am an eighty year old woman at heart.

It's now snowing outside and I am bundled up in my bed while watching Disney movies and making small goals.
I really would like to start taking more pictures.  Once I am feeling better this will happen.
I'm going to have a dress up day at least once a week, probably a Saturday since I'm in uniform Monday-Friday.
Finally my last goal, no more alcohol.  I drink maybe once a month but I just feel unhealthy after, so instead I'm going to drink coffee :)

All Tangled Up!

I wish it would snow again.
I am optimistic that it will this week.

For future reference so no one sends out a missing persons report:
When I'm absent from my blog usually it means the boy is visiting or I am visiting him.
He visited me :)
It was a short visit but of course that doesn't matter just as long as we get to be together.

We decided not to be homebodies so much this time and went over to a friend's house to watch a movie.
I may have had a cat nap, and the boy may have scared me when he woke me up and I may have jumped ten feet in the air.
Yes, I was tired.
This will be a napping kind o f week, so I probably won't be blogging as much.
My work hours were increased, it's good for Christmas I suppose.  But it means less time with my family and less time to visit the boy.

Saturday we braved the mall.
Gadzooks!
It was absolutely bonkers in there.
I'm a bit terrified to shop in the city in a couple weeks, but definitely excited.
I get that bubbly feeling when I walk into a mall at Christmas.  The decorations, the music..the crabby shoppers who I ignore, Santa Clause etc.

All you Disney children! Please tell me you will see this movie!

I don't know if was because it was an excellent fairytale or the kids laughter throughout the theater, or if it was every time Max, the horse, came on screen the women behind me would laugh like a horse but I fell in love with this film :)
Good night and have a pleasant week.

Happy October 1st!

I finished 'Beastly' by Alex Flinn yesterday :)
It was pretty good and I'd recommend reading it if you like fairy tales.
So after I read it I had to go and watch the Disney version, and with all the commercials for the Disney dvd coming out I'm now going to buy it.
Sigh, I wish I could own all the Disney movies on dvd.  We have most of them on vhs but they're old and some of them don't work anymore :(

Confession: At work sometimes when I'm bored I try and think of something I can blog about.  I'm bored most of the time so I put a lot of though into it but never end up writing what I was thinking about.
Yesterday I was thinking how I could write about love because I read a blog post I really liked that was inspiring but then I thought nahhh.
Or I could do another Fall post, except that requires pictures so maybe tomorrow because I plan on a Fall walk today and I'm actually quite excited.

There's always a fashion or food post.  But I've just been wearing t-shirts and jeans lately and food wise I was sick so I didn't want to contaminate my family (I think I was successful in not getting them sick! Hand sanitizer is my friend.)
But today I'm making banana bread courtesy of rotten bananas.
Then next week I'll be making an apple pie and probably cookies :)

I had other blog ideas that were pretty decent but now I can't remember them.

Oh my gosh! It's October today!
I like October.
Did you know it got it's name because "octo" means eight and it's the eighth month?  I didn't.
Time to start planning the Halloween costume.

This is one of my favourite places to drive lately.  The mall parking lot.  See those trees? They're full of color and the leaves fall off and dance across the pavement.  I love it!

8. Your last night out in detail
In detail huh?  Well......oh my gosh, since it's October that means cheesy Disney Channel Halloween movies !!!  So I went out last Saturday.  My friend B called me asked if I wanted them to pick me up.  Them?  Turns out he had a girl with him.  I was the third wheel, but I didn't even realize that until we were at the movie.  He was asking what was happening with me and the boy (his best friend).  We went to Starbucks before hand, I got a white chocolate mocha.  Then he dropped the girl and I off at the theater while he found a parking spot.  We talked a bit, it wasn't super awkward like it usually is for me.  There were tons of kids coming out of the owl movie (yeah I know it's name but I just like to call it 'the owl movie' and I want to see it)
There was discussion of one of the employees looking like a celebrity, they got food....We saw "Devil".
It was one of M. Night Shyamalan's better films, but "Signs" will still always scare me the most.
We all agreed we're taking the stairs from now on.
They dropped me off at home.  The End.

Thank you guys for following me :)  49 followers!  That's awesome!
Have a super fantastic weekend!

Cupcake Mishap

Are you going to take a trip down the rabbit hole this weekend?
I sure am.

In atttempt to get into the Alice in Wonderland spirit tonight, I attempted to make cupcakes.

When I say attempt that usually means I A)Made a mess (inevitable) or B) Totally screwed up.

I make my cupcakes from the box, but do homemade icing. 
You think making cupcakes from a box would be easy, right?
Oh, we are so wrong.
Once I made them and then came out all deflated and wrinkled.  Weird, I thought.  Then I accidently dropped one on the floor, it completed flattened.  So I dropped another.
What did I do wrong?  I checked the box....
I had forgotten the eggs.

This time, my friends I remembered the eggs!
But, alas I forgot about the cupcakes completely while they were baking.  An hour in the oven for cupcakes is not a good thing.
Proof:

You see those ugly green rock-like things?  Those were a beautiful bright Alice in Wonderland (Disney Cartoon) dress colored blue.

Seriously.
