Sick Day
In the past two and a half years since we got married, Tyson has learned something about me. I tend to ignore the first symptoms of getting sick and I do this until I get REALLY sick and then it just makes everything worse. So, he has learned to notice little tiny differences about me from when I am 100% and when I am starting to get sick and he is constantly checking me for a fever. This morning I didn't pass the tests... I have a fever and in order to not get worse, I am banished to the bed. Fortunately I had today off anyway (but I really do need to get better because I go back to work for the first time since New Years Ever tomorrow) but the reason is for cleaning, while the entire top level of my house is done, today was going to be basement day... so we will see when I get around to doing my basement, but I guess it will not be today. Wish me luck in getting my house done!

The Fault In Our Stars
Today is the first Sunday of the year, and Fast Sunday of course. I've decided that in my little family, which currently only has two people... should start the Tradition of roast on fast Sunday. I love the smell of the roast coming from the kitchen! The only bad this is that once it starts to smell good it starts making me hungry!
I finished my first book of 2013 today. I started it on the first and just finished it this morning. It is in my goals for the year to read 24 books, not counting Harry Potter which I have to read for another one of my goals... and the first one to add to the count was The Fault in Our stars by John Green
This books was worth a read... though I found it extremely predictable. Maybe others would be surprised, but seeing as I have been doing all I can to think like an author for years I saw almost exactly where it was all going from the first few chapters. It was also a slight bit too gushy for me. All the lovie kissie stuff doesn't appeal to me as much in such realistic settings. Yes, I know that Divergent (my favorite book of the moment) has that strong love plot in there, but the story really is based on more...this story thrived a little to hard on the love story. There are many people I would not recommend this book too because they predictability of it would make it too boring... but there are also many who would love this book... so I suppose I have mixed feelings on it.
So, yeah... that is my book review of the day... up next on my too read list: Dark Companion by Marta Acosta

Happy 2013
Well, here we are, finally in the New Year! I have a lot of goals I hope to accomplish this year and there are a lot of possibilities of things that could go down. Last year quite honestly was a little bit boring for me, and I am determined to not let 2013 be so boring. After all we decide what we do.
In order for me to start off the year on the right foot, I have decided to take a few days off of work and get some deep cleaning done on my house. I work at as a Housekeeper at a hotel and so we've been doing some deep cleaning in the rooms there and it just made me notice all the little things that I really need to find time to clean in this house. And it never hurts to go through things, organize a bit and get rid of things you don't need anymore.
I personally have always had a bit of trouble getting rid of things and letting go. But, I am learning and growing wiser, and I think this time it is going to be a bit easier to let myself get rid of enough to get organized. Wish me luck!
