Donating Blood


Since I did so well last November with giving blood, I decided to sign up again. 

Now I don't usually watch. I'm usually looking anywhere else or staring out the window, pretending I'm at someplace other than the Blood Mobile. Today I felt a little braver and decided to snap this picture. 

I found out later that my blood was headed to Duke Medical Center for a patient in need.

Test Driving ID.4

I got to test drive Volkswagen's ID.4 this weekend. 

I've never considered getting an all electric car before, but after driving the ID.4, I'm in love!

No matter the number of candles on your cake, I hope it’s a wonderful day and is the start of a year filled with fun times, great health, good food - like cake and ice cream - much happiness, and lots of laughter.  Enjoy your special day!

Happy Birthday!

The Right To Vote

Cade and Andrew both celebrated their 18th birthdays this year. Since they were eligible to vote, I asked them if they wanted to go with me to vote early. Now, I'm a Democrat and Cade is a Republican. Andrew also seems to lean toward Republican. I made it clear that how they voted was entirely up to them. I wasn't going to preach one candidate/Party over the other. It was simply very important to me that they exercise their newly gained right to vote. I was so happy they both wanted to go with me.

Here we are in line at the Lewisville Library, masked up and trying to maintain social distance. This picture was taken at 4:15pm.

I had Andrew and Cade go ahead of me so I could watch, and be on guard if they had any difficulties or questions. One of the volunteers called out to the crowd that they were first time voters and they received a round of applause. I was such the proud mom (and aunt). I stood there beaming from ear to ear.

I got my ballot and colored in the bubbles for the candidates I was choosing. I went back through to make sure each bubble was completely colored in. I didn't want anything to negate my selection for President!

Here we are after, sporting our "I Voted" stickers. This picture was taken at 4:34pm. So it took us less than half an hour to vote.

You can't really tell because of the mask, but I was so happy that I was able to vote with Cade and Andrew.

Corona Hair, Cut and Color

I think the last time I got my hair cut and colored was in late 2019! While the salons have been opened for a few months, I knew that EVERYONE would be scrambling for appointments. So I waited, and waited and waited. After giving what I thought was enough time for hairstylists to get used to the COVID guidelines, I finally made an appointment. I'd never been happier to see Jennipher!


This was the only picture I took throughout the entire 5 hour long process. (Hey, after a year it grew pretty long and wasn't in the greatest of conditions!) Later Jennipher posted before/after shots of me to her Instagram. Quite the difference!
