The Life...

Well, hello there everyone! Or no one... That's ok... My posts haven't been very exciting, and I haven't advertised them at all either. So I wouldn't be surprised if no one even knew this blog existed! Haha Anyway, it has been a really long time since my last post, so I figured it was about time to post again!

Well, school is finally finished for the summer, actually indefinitely for me... Gotta wait for clinicals. :/ But that's ok I was so ready for a break! Wasn't my greatest semester, but, hey! That's life! :) This summer is filled with all sorts of new things that are gonna be happening for me!

Well, first off, I am going to Colorado and California for a vacation!!!!! Yay!!!! A couple of weddings that I will be attending. Pretty excited to get away from home and travel again! It has been way too long since my trip to New Zealand! Here's a link to the blog my friend and I wrote while we were there! I get bored when I stay in one place for too long! So I have been looking on Pinterest for things to do while I am in Denver, because I will be there for about a week. I found a couple of really great pins. But I really wanted to do things that the locals would do, well, kind of. More of what they want to do but never get around to doing. Ya know what I mean? ;) Haha well, I found some really great farmer's markets and some festivals here. Also, what's a trip to Denver without going to Casa Bonita?? And last but not least, I found a really great family fun thing to do Here... Its like a giant slide! How fun is that?!!? Pretty excited to do all of these things!!! There will definitely be pictures of all the fun things that we will do! :)

O and before I go... I just wanted to add a photo of me! In case there really is anyone reading this and was curious about me! :) Haha Well, its not a great one... I'm getting ready to go to work so... Maybe a better one later! Bye!!!! :)

All year indoor flower bulbs project

Well, I have so many projects on Pinterest that I want to do and today happened to be a day that I worked on one. This one involves growing flowers indoors any time of the year, with no soil. Here  is the link the pin that I copied on Pinterest.
square vaseI went to Michael's and bought a square vase to plant some bulbs in, $4.99, and the perfect size!

glass beadsI used these glass beads, I'm not sure what color the flowers will be so I just chose this green. 


asiatic lily bulbsI used these bulbs that I found at Aldi's, lilies, I couldn't find any tulips, although thats what was used in the pin on Pinterest. I think they were $2.99, or something like that, for about 6 bulbs.

bulbs in vase, glass beads, waterThis is the final result. I put my bulbs in the only window that gets sun. Hopefully they bloom, I will post more pictures once they do. 

Hello!!

Well, I am very new at this. I have only done one other blog before and that was when my friend, Trina, and I went to New Zealand. There and Back Again is our story at foreignfarmernz.blogspot.com, if anyone is interested in reading about our adventures.

I am currently back in the states, going to school for nursing, working as a CNA at a nursing home and cleaning the church that I attend. I was reading some blogs from Pinterest and had the brilliant idea to start my own. I have no idea if anyone will actually read this or not, but hey its fun anyway! :)

So I guess right now, I am just finishing up my last semester before starting clinicals, and ready for an event filled summer. I have two trips planned and can't wait to see friends and spend time outdoors. I will be posting most/all of my adventures, so this will be kind of a journal for me. I will just be posting whatever happens to be on my mind at the time! :) This blog is to help keep me on track and to keep me active. If anyone reads this I hope you enjoy and I would love to hear from you.

So for now, I will leave you with...
Psalm 121
I lift up my eyes to the hills-
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of heaven and earth.
He will not let your foot slip-
He who watches over you will not slumber;
indeed, He who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.
The Lord watches over you-
the Lord is your shade at your right hand;
the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night.
The Lord will keep you from all harm-
He will watch over your life;
the Lord will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.
