This week was very productive. I got a lot of things done at work and have made progress on my own personal goals. My blessings this week include:
L to R, top to bottom:
The pattern of one of my spring crafty projects
A bottle of white wine (sent by a Raveler at Christmas because I helped her with some MadTosh I had that she needed)
A new bread recipe
My idea of fun — happy, happy, joy, joy — yarny patterns, photography books, yarny swatch, new photography lenses, a handy T.V. remote, Casual Vacancy, my couch, snow storm Nemo all equaled CRAFTY PAJAMA DAY!!!
Yarn colours that brighten my day.
Polenta pizza
Wine and my favourite incense — Black Cherry
Crafty, pajama day meal. Polenta pizza and salad plus wine
Going to the supermarket today with $90.00 then having my grocery bill come up to $88.27. I was so sure it was going to be more!
Going to the other supermarket with $21.73 and having that bill come up to $20.47! So sure that was going to be more as well!
Movie night: IRON MAN — the new and improved, drug-free Robert Downey Jr. — as awesome as chicken wings and the Super Bowl! 😀
Keeping It Real — Shaggy
Uh – that’s right Reality check You know what I mean Street lives eh Scorpion yeah uh
When I was young I use to dream of being rich Have a lot of houses and cars Couldn’t know which one was which And finding me a chick and getting hitched Living the fairy tale life perfect without a hitch You think that this would bring me happiness If at the end of every rainbow There was a treasure chest Sometimes having more is really less So take a look inside yourself You’ll realize you’re really blessed No matter how inside you’re blue There’s always someone who has it worse than you Sometimes you gotta pay your dues So don’t worry just push on through
[Chorus:] Keeping it real Gotta big up all my peoples who be working on the future Though they know they gotta struggle Keeping it real To all my homies working on the 9 to 5 And doing right to keep themselves up out of trouble Keeping it real Although sometimes I know it seems impossible There ain’t no need in drowning in your sorrows Keeping it real If things are as bad as they can be You can be sure there’ll be a brighter tomorrow
And I forgot to have myself the house, the mansion, and the Benz I’m not the type of brother who be making mad ends I got myself a girl but we be kickin’ it as friends Is not enough for me now that depends Again – not everthing you want is everything you really need The standard of society is motivated by greed Are you prepared to follow Tell me are you prepared to leave So persevere and you’ll succeed
[Chorus]
[Hook] All the harsh realities Appears to come in two’s and three’s Don’t worry cause There’ll be a better day One thing I can promise you Just keep on keeping on I swear to you There’s gonna be a brighter day
[Chorus]
Back in the days I use to dream of being rich Have a lot of houses and cars Couldn’t know which one was which And finding me a chick and getting hitched Living the fairy tale life perfect without a hitch You think that this would bring me happiness If at the end of every rainbow there was a treasure chest Sometimes having more is really less So take a look inside yourself You’ll realize you’re really blessed No matter how inside you’re blue There’s always someone who has it worse than you Sometimes you gotta pay your dues So don’t worry just push on through
[Chorus]
That’s right, see me, yeah Give thanks for what you have, ya know And when you think that its bad There’s always somebody that’s worse Know what I’m sayin’ Give Jah blessing, see me Wa-wa, Wa-wa Wa-wa, wa-wa
