Queenies Little Kingdom

Remember my story confession about my need to see? I laid my soul bare for the world when I blabbed about my blindness. It was humbling, ok?

Hello….who wants to be called old?

Even though….if the shoe fits? 😉

I broke down and bought the suckers, ok? Matter of fact, I bought two pair. After sitting in church on Sunday…..squinting like the sun was blaring into my corneas, I decided NO MORE!!! I couldn’t even see the words in THE WORD!

Not cool, ya’ll!

I drove directly to Walgreens, grabbed the Sunday sale ad and boom, right on the front page was the Buy One Get One Free ad for READERS!! Yay me!

Since then….I’ve been dizzy, cross-eyed and just all around out of sorts (visually). I am trying so hard to get used to them. One of my big problems is using them to work on the computer and turning to do something else. Major adjustment!

But guess what? I CAN SEE WHAT I’M READING NOW!!!

Take a look at mamaw & papaw.

I’m following along on Monday nights with Lysa Terkeurst’s Made To Crave webcasts. Each time, the twitter folks are hot and heavy tweeting away. I am jealous. I try to tweet along (ilke the rest of the cool kids). But, I can’t figure out how.

I tweet. Then I never see my tweet anywhere except on my own page and who wants to come over there and tweet with me when all the action is over at Made To Crave? Grrr!

I STINK!!!

Then after all the fun at MTC….the (in)courage chicks had a Twitter Party going on. Double grrrr! Again, I tried and tried to chat along and instead ended up looking like the reject kid not getting picked for any of the teams. Embarrassing!

When……when will I learn to twitter like all the cool people?

I think I might be twitter-tarded! And I do not mean that in an insulting way to anyone! Promise! I really have NO CLUE!!

Pray for me!?

My twitter handle?

If you bake skinny cupcakes….are the calories skinny too?

No? I didn’t think so. But, don’t tell my chub…I’m living as if anyway!

On my fun trip to IKEA with my girlfriends Friday….I purchased the cutest cupcake pan ever. The cupcake holes are skinny & tall! I love it and I knew my girls would too. I even bought two packages of the skinny chic cupcake papers (you know, in case I never find them again!). Tell me I’m not the only one that thinks like that?

YEP, this kept me locked down inside all day. I specifically loved the 5am morning wake-up call to tell me STAY HOME! Falling back to sleep after that little taste of startle…indescribable! Ahh, precious times.

Maybe I’m just bitter because I fell asleep during episode #17 from season 1 (yes, I’m watching shows from 2004) of Lost. I’ve been looking forward to some free-time to lounge around in pj’s watching this awesome show. Somehow, my tv snobbery kept me from ever finding the amazingness that is Lost when it was, you know….actually on tv.

I like to think of myself as current.

Guess what? NO SCHOOL again tomorrow. Luckily, we were able to find out in advance. Nice, huh? I have been invited to go to IKEA with my school BFF Betsy and her sisters (and sweet baby Amelia). Only the weather is rather awful.

Darn it, I really love IKEA. But hubby’s right…..no go if the roads are icy. You’ll find me here with my friends LOST on a deserted island. Either way, my day off looks promising.
