Monday Moments Of Me #115

Sometimes it is the little things in life that truly bring me to tears. . .

It was Friday April 21, 2017 and my husband called me and said he had to head to work and was leaving sooner than expected. . . so I hurried and finished what I was doing and I was high tailing it home so I could give him a hug and kiss good bye :)
I sent him a text saying wait for me I will be home in 10 minutes. Those 10 minutes went SLOW and when I was less than 45 seconds from home. . . I saw his car headed the opposite direction of mine.
I missed him, how did he not wait when I text him and told him to? I was angry for about 2 seconds but I realized he needed to hurry and I will see him soon so it is not the end of the world.

I spoke with him about 30 minutes later and he said he just barely got my text :(

Oh well.

Fast forward to later that evening. . . I find the not above on the fridge!!! How did I not see this sooner in the day? My eyes filled with tears as I read it over and over.

Yes, it is on a piece of scratch paper, yes the other side has his list of stuff not to forget to take with him that day but it means THE WORLD to me. It means he was thinking of me and it is even in PINK ink you guys. This man of mine gets me!!! LOL.

*Side Note; this is the only magnet on the fridge. . . not sure why...maybe because it makes me laugh haha*

Monday Moments Of Me #114

If you do not know this about me already . . . I love Dave & Buster's! It is basically and arcade for adults haha. It is good for kids too though :) I look forward to going there with my husband at least once a month! It's good for my soul.
This past week while there we were looking at items we could get with our points (which we save and save and hardly use) my husband said "I'm gonna get you one of these." As I looked at what he was talking about I nearly died. It was hideous, had bug eyes, no use for me and I felt like it was a waste of our hard earned points. He picked one out and along with a couple other items and we "checked out" at the ticket counter.
The next day I took out of the bag this useless bug eyed hideous thing and put it on my desk. It was then my heart softened a little bit for this thing. . . I realized it is a TY!!!
Guys! I have collected TY's since I was a little girl. So, now even more of my inner child has come out. It also doubles as a phone holder and its bottom is a screen cleaner :) hahaha
Her name is Chimps (that is what the TY tag says) and I LOVE her.
Thanks Babe!!!

As I mentioned last week about the quotes and music channel. . .. I am still over here in my little world amazed at the music channel with great relaxing music with quotes! haha

This week this one is speaking to me. . .

What are your thoughts when you read that quote?!

Monday Moments Of Me #112

This past week I was strolling through the music channels on my TV and I came across one called Soundscapes. It sounded interesting so I decided to take a listen ;)
It is basically the type of music you hear during a massage. . .
It is now my favorite thing to do when looking for a relaxing few moments with inspirational quotes with great pictures attached as well!!!

Quote of the week:

"Lose not yourself in a far off time, seize the moment that is thine."                                                            - Johann Friedrich con Schiller -

Remember to live in the moment friends, take nothing for granite, and spread joy!!!
