Well shoot...I just came to the realization that I'm a day off of my blogs..poop. That's what happens when I get distracted I suppose! Saturday my grandparents came in (along with my baby brother) and it was one heck of a tiring day that's for sure. I'm also completely and utterly stuffed from all of the places I have eaten out this whole weekend. Which is the biggest first world problem I have ever heard of but that's my life. Today's weather kind of matches my mood and mindset today, which is unfortunate but true. This morning started out as decent, gray but warm. You know whatever, I can deal. THEN OUT OF NOWHERE COMES THIS HORRID RAIN AND COLD WINDS. Yeah it was awful especially if you left the house wearing nike shorts.....I was definitely regretting all of my clothing choices this morning that is for sure. I can't complain about this morning though, I did get to have a coffee date with my lovely froomie (Future roommate) Kendall. Who is glorious and I adore her face and stuff. So that was definitely a highlight of my day! Then I came to the realization that if I want to minor in Spanish (Which I most desperately do) then I have to take Spanish over the summer...Yikes. Which will mean I have next to no family time. So then the rest of my morning just got poopy because I have absolutely no idea what I'm going to be doing this summer. NONE. And that scares me.
Though there is hope (Duh), if I can get into a distance learning class offered at Blinn then maybe I can do more with my family this summer. I'm just nervous and could use a whole lot of Jesus right now. So that's my life. I hope you're doing splendid. Since I'm behind I will post a double special...just for you. You're welcome. Enjoy.
Memory #76
This post will be one of the few posts that will point out the obvious differences between my lovely mother and I, but its worth sharing and kind of matches what's going down currently. So I apologize if you feel that this memory lacks merit in your eyes but I'm at liberty to post what I want, right? I always find it humorous how children can be so similar to their parent or how incredibly different they are in other aspects of their life. For instance my brother is a carbon copy of my dad and grandfather. If you took their baby pictures and lined them up, they'd be pretty dang similar (Except for like the camera quality or whatever). I look like neither of my parents. I look like I'm adopted. It's true. Though its pretty obvious (to me) that I am my parent's daughter in the way that I act. I would say in all honesty that Sam is most similar to my mother. Golly that boy is SMART. You heard it here. I think my baby brother might even be smarter than me (Don't hold this against me if we are ever fighting, I'll deny it). Just like my mom. Another thing they have in common? LACK OF MOTIVATION. In the same way that my mom used to get excited about things and then would just let them fade out...Sam is the same exact way. (Sorry booboo but it's true)
Which drives me nuts, because I'm like my dad. Smart to a degree but I make up for whatever I don't know by having the motivation to accomplish things. Translation: I have to work really really hard to maintain a level of smartness. It don't come naturally to me. My mom and Sambo, they be real smart and it (for the most part) comes to them naturally. I always find that particularly interesting, so I decided to share. Hope you don't mind.
Love Always,
Erin
You look a lot like your mom Erin - you have her pretty smile. Both your mom and dad have a goofy sense of humor - so you got a double does of that - can't get too much of a good thing. Your mom was also very direct and honest - another good quality - which you demonstrate in this post quite nicely. Keep up the good work!
