Spring is officially here!

Oh. Folks, this is big! If you know me at all you know what an exciting time of year is coming up for me. One word: Twister. Here is my season opener Twister watching criteria:

1) Has rained for the first time...
2) April 1st...
3) Which ever comes first

...considering it's snowing right now I'm not feeling super confident in rain at the moment...I digress...

I've started my rigorous Twister brain exercises. Yep, they are a real thing...and totally legit. IMDb.com is a starter for me. Ya know, gettin' the ol' tootsies wet after a long cold winter off from watching Twister to remind myself of the bloopers and misc/random facts. Then I move on to the online tests. You know what I'm talkin' about: those tacky classy online quizzes made by God-only-knows-who...they are hardly a challenge for this Twister fanatic.

BTW, in case you were curious (or wanting to plan a birthday get away for me *wink wink*) visiting the Twister museum in Wakita, OK is on my bucket list...

...moving on...

Lot's of exciting stuff is happening! I love spring! Friends/family's bellies are going to be popping soon, friends/family's (that are farther along) babies are going to be popping out, weddings are happening!...all good stuff! I'm hoping that Spring will bring some wonderful events to Eric and my life too!

And then there's my birthday that's coming up soon! A big one! The big 3-0. I'm jazzed! Some are scared for this milestone birthday, but I'm excited! I hear 30's are wonderful years of new-found love for yourself and confidence in yourself. All the crap of the 20's is behind you and you are who you are. I already feel comfortable with who I am, but dang...feeling more comfortable and confident would be great too! Dirty 30 - bring it on!

After a seriously exhausting past week, Eric and I had a busy and fun weekend. We celebrated my Godson's birthday this Saturday afternoon, then headed to a comedy show featuring the Common Man, a KFAN radio personality that Eric quotes all. the time. Thankfully, I think he's pretty funny so the constant quotes are entertaining. Anywho, the comedy show was fun! Sunday morning was filled first with coffee at home before church. I love waking up earlier than needed to relax and have coffee on a Sunday morning before heading to church. It gets my head and heart ready for hearing what I need to hear. Later, I headed to one of my best friends baby showers for some celebrating and had a wonderful time. Since I was in the neighborhood, I stopped by my grandparents grave site, curled up in my 'weather emergency' blanket, and sat with their memory for a while. I'll be heading to my other grandparents grave sites soon too for an early Spring visit. I miss them all so much...

Ok, lighter subject. Who's watching March Madness?! Love it. College basketball is so much fun to watch. I'm not someone who closely follows college basketball..well any sport really...but, every year Eric and I create our own brackets with one bet: winner takes the loser to Dairy Queen! We're ALL winners in that deal!

I wish you joy in these final days of March, friends! I'm off to paint my nails...

Until next time,

Coffee, Cats, and Wine and I'll be fine!
