My Happy Moments

Hello, hello! I hope you had a great weekend. I have some photos to post, but I was "running late" this morning (Steve wasn't even AWAKE and I was running late. I came in to work with him today), so I'll post those after I get home and after I wash the dishes. The dishes are about to consume our kitchen. Literally...it's an NYC kitchen.

But I'm happy! Here are my happy moments for the day.

1) I got to spend a quiet weekend with my husband at a lighthouse in upstate New York. It was relaxing and quiet and it was so nice that I wish I was there now. But that's okay! Workin' hard for the money.

2) My pastor agreed that I could do something, but it's a little top secret until it's in the bulletin. At least, that's what Steve thinks it should be so that I don't get overly excited and then it falls through.

3) The Rescue and Hands On New York Day are this weekend! It is going to be INSANE, but I may MAY be interviewing Nicolas Cage at The Rescue. How random is that?!


This isn't a happy moment, but it made me laugh. All of my containers look the same and are not see-through. So, instead of bringing my lunch with me today, I brought a container of spaghetti sauce. OOPS!

So what's made you happy today?

My Happy Moments For Today

So today has been INSANE. And I've freaked myself out to a point of a headache. It's a good headache and it's all good freaking out, but it still makes me want to shove popcorn in my mouth and throw caution to the wind and pay NO ATTENTION to the scale.

1) I am now writing a blog story about The Rescue for Invisible Children on April 25th for MTV News. That means, I guess, that I'm interviewing celebrities. I just want this story to go up. I would talk to someone's pet as long as it got this out there. But now I have this fear that I won't do Invisible Children justice.

2) I'm doing ANOTHER voice-over today. I did one yesterday for College Life for MTV and then I'm doing one for 16 & Pregnant. (By the way, I'm a production assistant for MTV.com and I just get pulled into other things. Which is fine. Voice overs pay.)

3) I'm taking tomorrow off to spend some time with my husband. :) I am so excited!!!

What has made you happy today?

Also, could you please pray for Lori? There's a button to her blog over to the left. She is such a wonderful person and she could use your prayers for her son's adoption.

My Three Happy Moments For Today

So my friend Sam said that, when she was little, her mom would ask her for three good things that happened in her day. She's trying to be a more positive person and I think that looking for the little things in life is a REALLY good idea. That being said...

My three good things for the day (so far)
1) I found a restaurant in NYC that looks AWESOME. It's called Ninja and it's designed to look like a ninja castle and the waiters and waitresses just disappear.

2) I haven't even advertised my bake sale yet today, but I've already made $6!! Today is a cookie day. I made peanut butter cookies, chocolate chip cookies, and world peace cookies. So far, I've made about $300 for Project O!!! I had to start my count over, so I'm at $150 at the moment. My goal is to send a few children to Hillcrest Academy in South Africa, but we'll see how it goes. :)

3) I found some places for Steve and I to go on our way to the lighthouse hotel in upstate New York! There's a Fork in the Road in Red Hook, the world's largest garden gnome in Kerhonkson, and a towering rosary madonna in Stony Point, New York!!! I love going on road trips!!

What are your happy moments for the day so far?
