Brrrr.
This is the ice cluster/clump/chicle I found on our porch yesterday Morn. Cool, huh? At one point today the weather got to -6 degrees. I don't even want to know what the wind chill was...
Why do I live here?
Why not a Turtle Shell?
Disney 2010
Magic Kingdom Castle made out of glass and diamonds!

11. Was introduced to a health food store and natural deodorant

Makeover.
She got a makeover! The blog, that is. There's a little more tweaking that needs to be done, but overall the look is there! It's a new year, these are new times, and there are new things on the horizon for Amanda! I'm so excited to fill you in on what's going on in my life, but I may have to wait a little longer just so I don't jump the gun before anything is official! So that's a little tease to keep you coming back!

Whoo.
I wrote a check today and instantly got the date wrong. I even kept reminding myself of the date and year, yet, still wrote 12-31-10. Darn. So Happy New Year everyone! 2010 was...eventful. I will do a recap of the year soon! But I have a feeling 2011 is going to be quite the year! I'm excited to see what the Lord has in store! So, I have been brainstorming on a new blog name and I have come up with a few possibilities. But the final will have to wait...maybe a few months. Unless I think of a better one in the mean time...but regardless...it's still coming!
Happy New Year!

Just Now I Realized...
that my blog title is wrong. I turned 21 last week! I must change my blog title...again. I've changed it a few times before I stuck with what I have, but I just can't seem to find one that really fits. Soo...this brain has begun storming. I will let you know ASAP when it's been decided and made official. But keep on the look out for the new address which will appear here, obviously, and also on my Facebook!
See ya then!
Yes, 21

It's Been How Long?
It has been a ridiculously long time since I've made an appearance on this blog. How terrible! Well, it's about to change. Again. I feel like I say that all the time (because I do)...but, this time is for real. Period.
Okay so...since it's been so long...here's a bit of what has happend since I've been gone.

1. Still working for an eye doctor
2. Still in Sioux Falls
3. Still have the same daily routine
BUT
4. My family and I went to Disney World for a week in October!
5. It was my Mom's 50th birthday on November 11th
6. Thanksgiving has come and gone
7. I turned 21...today
8. New plans for my future may be becoming reality
9. I learned guitar
10. We've had our first snow
11. And...Christmas is on it's way!

Now, don't worry..."I'll be back."
