Sippin' Cider

Everyone at work drinks coffee or tea. So they're always brewing something and have drinks at the desk. Sometimes I feel left out because I want a warm drink. I fixed that by bringing my own Apple Cider to work. I had to get them to teach me how to use the tea kettle to boil water, then make my cider. I was giddy and giggling while I did it because I was so excited. Everyone thought I was hilarious. 

Then to my delight I found a little stir straw and used that to mix everything. Then, I used the straw to drink. It reminded me of going to girl's camp and campfire songs. 
The cutest boy, I ever saw. Was sipping ciiiiiider, through a straw. The cutest boy I ever saaaaaaw was sipping ci yi yi yi yider through a straw. 
I asked him if, he'd show me how, to sip that ciiiider through a straw. I asked him if he'd show me how to sip that ci yi yi yi yider through a straw. 
First cheek to cheek, then jaw to jaw, we'd sip that ciiiiiider, through a straw. First cheek to cheek then jaw to jaw, we'd sip that ci yi yi yi yider through a straw. 
And now I have, a mother in law, and forty-eight kids, who call me ma. Now I have a mother-in-law, and forty-eight kids who call me ma. 

There's another verse that I can't remember about how you shouldn't sip cider through a straw, instead you should drink root beer. 

I remember singing that song as a thirteen year old and wanting to sip cider with a boy, or anything. Now that I'm married, I just steal sips from Sammy's soda and we share water glasses and everything and it's not all romantic and cute, it's just being best friends.

 Since I'm sipping this cider by myself I don't think that I'm doomed to have forty-eight kids. So I'll go on sipping my cider in the morning, because it makes me really happy.

Fake

I feel like a lot of times when going through blogger, I'm always pushing the boundaries a bit. A lot of blogs seem to always be happy and awesome and they just won this free product from someone and it's great! And then, I'm over here in my little corner of the blogosphere wondering, hey, should I actually write about this? Is this something that you just pretend like it never happens? Am I the only one this happens to? My favorite moments are when I find someone cutting down those walls and sharing what life is actually like. That they have zits. That they don't have the perfect relationship and baby. That they've struggled with mental health. That they're secretly gross like me. (I took a quiz on buzz feed about how secretly gross are you, and I got pretty gross. In the guise of not being fake, I am sharing this fact with you all!) When I find those blog posts, I instantly feel a connection with that person and will automatically follow them on their life j...

Liebster-ing it up!

Funny story. A few days ago I was reading all the blogs I follow like I usually do. And of course I read  Jana's  blog and read about how she had won the Liebster award. I had no idea what it was, so I read her post full of fun facts, and for everyone I kept nodding my head going, I DO THAT TOO! Then today I re-read her blog, and realized that she'd nominated me for the Liebster award as well! It was a very exciting moment. Thank you! So I guess this is how it works, I think, I'm new to this whole thing. I totally just stole this off Jana's blog ;) "The Liebster Blog Award is given to bloggers by bloggers. It is a way to acknowledge each other and say 'you're doing a great job.' It is for blogs with 200 or less followers, so it's also a great way to spread the word about smaller blogs & get them more readers/ followers! When you receive the award, you post 11 random facts about yourself and answer 11 questions from the person who nominated y...

Christmas Lights

It’s funny having a baby and then trying to do things. I’ve noticed over the last year that I’ve gotten an I Can’t do that sort of attitude. We can’t do that because Aaron will cry and we’ll get cranky and so on. I’m really trying to work on that.  My anxiety out in public is much worse too. Now I have two people to protect not just myself. The library definitely changed how I look at places and I wish it hadn’t.  Sammy really wanted to go to a Christmas village downtown but I was too overwhelmed by all the logistics. So we compromised and went to one near us. It was so much fun! It was cold out but not too too bad. Aaron loves looking at the Christmas lights at our apartments, and he really loved these ones. It was so much more fun trying to look at these things through his eyes.  He was also fascinated by the mini Santa and Mrs. Clause at grandma’s house.  I’m so glad we went and can’t wait to go next year when he’s walking:)
