Life on vacation
My day begins when I put my wedding ring on.
Today, my day begun at 12:15.
Yesterday, my day begun at 3:00.
Tomorrow, maybe I’ll start at 10:30.
Cross Country by James Patterson
Today, I started and finished Cross Country by James Patterson. I LOVE the Alex Cross detective series. The books are funny, down to earth, scary, action-packed, and romantic all in one. This 406 page thriller was different from the others. In the last 20 pages, I thought Alex’s family was dead. For the first time, I feared that the Alex Cross series was about to end. They couldn’t...
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you and yours! I hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday and remembers what the day is all about - Jesus! We have one Christmas down with two to go. This year my dad had everyone say what they were thankful for before opening the first present (youngest to oldest). The first response was, “I’m thankful for Jesus!” And that made my day, maybe even my...
Me: Ohh!! I need to add that movie to my Netflix!! (House Bunny)
B: You need to add that movie to your JonellFlix cuz I ain't watching that.
Me: Is that a compliment or not a compliment that I have one friend to watch movies with?
It’s disturbing to listen to rain sounds on December 18 when the temperature is 18. I’m glad I don’t have to try to go to work tomorrow; or leave the house until 6:30! The weather kind of puts a damper on enjoying the vacation if I’m stuck in the house. I’ll have to find something really exciting to do, that is different than any other night of the week. I may have to...
Tired
I am tired, on the verge of exhaustion and ready for a mental and physical break from most things. I want to be holed up in my house and not do anything. What a perfect winter activity…

It's starting to look a lot like Christmas...
…in my house and outside! Ok, so it’s looked like Christmas for awhile now, but I’m getting excited at the thought of a snow storm! Obviously I don’t want to go out in the ice and snow, but it sure does look beautiful. I love watching it fall; it gives me such excitement. I don’t like being cold or scraping and shoveling, but it looks nice from a warm cozy house!
Now...
Person A: This is Ruben.
Person B: OH! I love your sandwich!!
Me: Priceless! And that's why I love you! :)

My secret - I want to go watch the Iowa Energy play because I want to go watch my former Cyclone heart throbs. What makes this even worse is that it looks like I could have sat front row and brought 50 of my closest friends. And to top that even more, the news said that Iowa had the best turnout in all the leagues. So, maybe this makes me cool. Maybe?
Swinging?
Annonomous: Clyde and Cheryl go swinging. We've even gone swinging a few times.
K: What?!
E: Huh?
J: I don't think we're talking about the same swinging
Annonomous: Swing dancing?
All: (laughing)
J: No. We're talking about swingers.
K: Like key parties. Switching.
J: I don't think anyone should use the word "swinging" in reference to dancing.
Annonomous: It's not just me.
J: No, I mean society.
My life as a TV drama
Usually I enjoy watching night time “soaps” because they don’t require any thinking and I can be a blob on the couch. Tonight’s episode made me think a little. I am specifically reflecting on an encounter with Meredith and Christina. Meredith, as fits her character, reacts to not being picked for the solo surgery. Christina responds with a professional and unbiased response...
I’m tired of being sick. I’m tired of being congested, having a headache, and feeling nauseous. I’m sick of coughing and blowing my nose. I just want to either be sick or just get over it; no more lingering symptoms.
I have too much to get done at night and laying on the couch sick doesn’t get me any further along. I don’t even have the motivation to turn on my...
Addiction
Definition = searching a random website and along the bottom navigation bar I think i see “Facebook.” I think that’s really random as this sight sells paper products. Upon a second glance I see that they would like my FEEDBACK, not to be my Facebook friend. Opps!
