Meme fun

Okay, over at Mrs. Nesbitt's place she offered up a middle name meme.

• The first rule is fixed ...for each letter of your middle name, list a fact or statement about yourself or your life. So the longer your middle name, the more facts we'll have about you. If you don't have a middle name, make one up.
• Second rule is anything you want, so mine will be to have you stand up and spin around twice when you're done.
  

Here goes...
ALICE
A- Agoraphobic...
that's me and my biggest struggle in life. I have gotten so much better over the years. I was in my late twenties the first time I bought something alone in a store without having an anxiety attack. Once when I was 24, I was buying diapers and my coupon had expired, then instead of just paying without a coupon, which was no big deal, I started to black out and the manager was called...that was horrible.
L- Lifelong learner...
I, as many I know, will continue to learn all that I can for as long as I am here on this planet.
I- Imagination...
I have such a strong and vivid imagination and I always have. It's great.
C- California...
I was born and raised in central California, however the Great Northwest is my home now...it's beautiful.
E- Early Childhood Education...
I am one class away from my ECE degree. It's a specialized AA degree. I used to be a Pre-school teacher and then I was a Program Coordinator for a large childcare center for three years. Little ones can wear me out!

F is for...

Fierce firefighter

Ford

Fawn

Feline friend

Flax seed

Fake flowers

Foot at the frog pond

relaxing

The evening is upon us and all are getting tired.
Have a wonderful sleep...sweet dreams.

No sleepy

My insurance company doesn't want to cover a sleep test for me, so it was canceled. Oh well, I'm not surprised...it seemed too good to be true!
On a happier note, I am so close to finishing my mermaid for the mermaid swap I joined and I'm happy about her.
Have a great day.

Saturday

What a lovely day it is, not too hot or too cold and with a breeze. Kids are in happy moods. Cats are sleeping. Customers coming in are all in good moods making for a comfortable day.
My mermaid for the mermaid swap is almost done AND I have shocked myself with how lovely she is. I made my own polymer clay cane for her bottom half and my oh my I'm so happy about her. Can't wait for the swap to be over so I can show her off. The only thing is ...she has some honkin' big lips! But hey she's a looker so big lips work!
Tonight we will dine at the I-HOP that has just been built. Mmmm...pancakes, waffles, fattening foods...what to have??
Well, here comes a customer to the door...have a great weekend.

D is for driving...and driving...

Yesterday, after a long drive to Tacoma, my daughter and I attended a Home Interiors rally. I won this cute little tree.It reminds me of Whoville from Dr Seuss. I like it.

As of Monday, our new drive is a Subaru. It is going off for brake work and detailing. We are looking forward to driving it.

Sleep study in my near future

In a couple of weeks this fella will be on his own for a night...he sleeps against me at night...well, whenever he can actually. I saw the sleep doc today and he thinks I have sleep apnea... so does my doc and the hospital...anyway, I am scheduled for an overnighter with hookups and all. The monitor your heart and your brain as well as the rest of you while you sleep. It oughta be interesting.
He thinks that my Mom and Sis should have one as well...hear that you two?
Thanks for the well wishes on my last post, I really appreciate it.

My neck hurts

I haven't been moving too fast these days. I hurt. My hands, neck, head,foot,arm....everything hurts.
I have to wait untill the pain is too much before the crushed disk in my neck is fixed. Well, I'm there...and my fingers throb and ache all the time. I can't even make a fist.
Had a heart test yesterday and am now changing the diet again...don't want diabetes or any of that. Monday I have an appointment with the sleep doctor.
I think that if my neck and hands were dealt with, I could sleep.
I don't want to go anywhere or do anything these days. I just want to find comfortable positions and be left alone.
Then again, I want to get out and do things and get stuff done. I want to go see my mom and visit my sis...
Sorta sorry for the whining...I feel better now.
Now to figure out the mermaid I wanna make for a swap...after I finish my sisters crow book project! Yikes much to do.
Toodles

My beautiful Mom and I hangin' out...


Roses are blooming...

My posts tend to be quick and short on words don't they. Flassie says that's okay...thanks Flassie. I'll attempt a longer post next time. ;)

C is for...

Colorful candles
Clocks
and Crabapples.

Tuesday already?!

I haven't posted in about a week! Well, I am sharing my computer with my daughter until HP fixes hers, so I don't get to it much.
Tomorrow is letter C day. Mrs. Nesbitt has started a thing where you post a picture that goes with the weeks letter. It's a fun idea.
See you tomorrow.

Wednesdays ABC - B is for Beads

This was supposed to go up yesterday! I didn't have access to my computer, so here it is today.
B is for Beads. I love beads and can't get enough of them. They're what happiness is made of.
