30 Day Challenge - Day 13

Day 13: Somewhere you'd like to move or visit.

Oh, I don't know where I'd want to move though it probably wouldn't be out of Texas mostly because I love this state. Where else can you say you drove nearly 12 hours and you haven't left your state yet? Maybe Californa? Plus, I'm sort of used to this climate already and would hate to adjust to a warmer/colder climate if we move. Though, inside of Texas? Out of this town and into another small one. I love the small town feel, just perhaps with few relatives. :P Not that I don't love my in-laws, I'd just like to be a little farther away from them. Definitely someplace with lots of land where I can own 3-4 dogs and a horse or two with no issues on home size or yard size. Now that would be a dream.

Places I want to visit, now that's a long list. I want to visit a great many places in Europe, just to do the "tourist" thing. Plus, I have made several friends all over the place and it would be great to see them again. Wales, Scotland, Australia, Columbia... It would be so much fun.
Of course, there is the standard "I want to visit Disney World/Land," which is true, because I went to Orlando once and didn't get to vist the whole park. I'd like to go back for about a week or so and just party with my hubby. Or go visit a ranch up in Colorado where we can ride all day long without any worries. Though, we'd have to have a few dog friendly places to take our "kids" with us. I could go on and on, mainly because I dream of traveling, though don't know if I'll ever get around to it. Maybe my darlin' dear and I will be one of those older couples who just travel when they retire. That sounds like fun to me.

So... It's been a super long time since I actually posted anything here and I just want to say I'm sorry. I'm so, so sorry. In the past year or so, we've moved, struggled with bills, and finally got internet access again. I hope to write at least once a week and continue with my 30 Day Challenge, even if it's just for myself. I'll probably throw in a few other writings now and again to spice it up.

For those who do read this, I thank you. I hope you enjoy and I look forward to seeing you again. :)

30 Day Challenge - Day 6

Bright and early for today! (It was 8:45 am when I started this post...)

Day 6: Write 30 interesting facts about yourself.

Hmm, this is going to be an interesting one, mainly because I'm not sure I can come up with 30. I'll try though!

1. I was born at Evans Hospital in Fort Carson, Colorado.
2. I played flute from 6th grade to my senior year.
3. I own a crochet business called Kota's Crochet Creations.
4. I graduated May 10, 2014 from Angelo State University with my BA in English.
5. I was married on May 25, 2013 to my darling husband.
6. I have three fur-"children" whom I love very much: Honey, Charlie, and Lady (all GSDs).
7. I am attending online classes this fall through Texas Teachers to get my teaching certification.
8. Born with blonde hair and blue eyes, I've mellowed out to a dirty blonde with sea-green eyes.
9. I've been working on my novel Always for Eternity for longer than I'd like to admit.
10. I want to visit Europe and even see Alaska (but not live there... Too cold).
11. I am the oldest of two kids, but the shortest in my family.
12. I have a lot of "adopted" family - several moms, dads, and plenty of siblings.
13. I can't eat a lot of food, due to a texture problem (such as lasagna, potato salad, and more).
14. I have psoriasis, but I don't care - it doesn't bother me.
15. Colorado, Wyoming, Louisiana, Washington D.C., New Mexico, Missouri, Oklahoma, Florida, and Kansas are all places I have visited, if briefly.
16. I'm a chocoholic; I constantly crave chocolate and want to eat it all.
17. I haven't really ridden a horse since my accident two summers ago (I was bucked off and twisted my knee something fierce).
18. I still watch "kid shows" like: My Little Pony, Kung Fu Panda, and various other shows (I can't think of any more right now).
19. I will never stop watching Disney, Dream Works, or Pixar movies.
20. I didn't jump on the SuperWhoLock band wagon until the shows were several seasons in. Working on watching all the seasons.
21. I love to read. In fact, I've had to up my Goodreads Challenge from 20 to 40!
22. Speaking of reading, I have a mini library of my own (which my husband is dreading having to move around).
23. I am part of the rare group that doesn't own a Smart Phone. I own several Smart Devices (iPad, iPod), but no Smart Phone.
24. I used to HATE carrying a purse around and only wanted carry a wallet. Sometime in college, I knew I had to carry a purse (plus, I can carry a book all the time with me now).
25. Coloring books are totally awesome. I still get excited about coloring.
26. I've read the Fifty Shades series and laugh when I know it's simply a Twilight fan fiction. Ain't it great?
27. I draw on occasion and have gotten relatively good, though it's more heads than anything.
28. I only like the red and green Haribo Gummy Bears. I'll eat them all, but I only really like the red and green ones.
29. I start subbing soon, hopefully, and I'll be on my way to a teacher within the next year!
30. I have sleeping problems, so most of the time (if I'm not busy), all I want to do is nap all day.

This list took me way longer than I thought it would, but I got it all done! 30 fun facts about me!

If you have any questions, or would like to know more about one of the thirty, feel free to ask. I'd love to answer your questions. :D

30-Day Challenge - Day 1

So, I been browsing Pinterest and Google for something to use this blog for, and I've run across this several times. So, I figured, ah what the hell, why not?

So, today is Day 1 of my 30 Day Challenge.
My current relationship is married. I've been married for a year and two (almost two) months to my darling husband, Austin Raymond Thorpe, also known as Jimmy. I adore this man, even if he does upset me from time to time (he's a guy and a husband, so it's bound to happen. No worries, though, I still love him).
Gah... I'll keep working on this as the challenge goes by, work my word magic as I continue and think of more to write about.

30 Day prompt, going to finish it all!

I'm  going to try and keep up with this as much as I can. Even if I don't keep up with it for 30 days in a row, I'll keep going with it, just so I can say I did it. It keeps me and my mind busy, and I love writing. That and it will give this blog a purpose of sorts until I can figure out what exactly I'm doing with this thing. Maybe that's it, I'll just get prompts and write every day that I can and make a schedule for a couple times a week. It'll help me pull out the writer in myself. Awesome. :D
Though, sadly, I'll miss several days on the 14th-17th, due to a trip to Houston for vacation, and then a few weeks from the 22nd to... Well, I don't know when we're getting back and my Blogger app isn't the greatest, but I'll definitely try.
