Blog Challenge, day 1

Day 1: A photo of yourself and a description of how your day was.

Today was Friday. In my life currently, that means a day off. That's right folks, I don't work on Fridays! I have three day weekends ALL. THE. TIME. I dreamed about this in high school, three day weekends all the time. And it's everything I ever dreamed it would be! On Fridays, I'm not anxious about doing nothing. I can do nothing and be totally fine with it because I have all day Saturday to do whatever I need to! So I can be lazy and do absolutely nothing, or I can be totally productive. Whatever I choose. Usually, like today, it's a little bit of both.

Today was great! I slept in til about 9:30, did a load of towels, and went to the dentist. The news was mostly good. I had about a bazillion cavities filled a year ago, and I only have one! And it's one that they'd seen last time but decided to wait it out. There were two like that, and the other one is fine, so whew! After that, Derrick and I went to Hickory Kist, the most amazing sandwich place in town. I took a nap, did the dishes, made enchiladas (I've been craving them for pretty much all of 2011) and watched some Grey's Anatomy, Criminal Minds, and Cold Case. Derrick and I are going to go running a little later and then it's off to bed! Pretty much a normal Friday for me, and I love it!

Day 2 is coming up tomorrow!

30 day blog challenge

What better way to start off a blog than with a challenge?! Okay, yes, pictures is also a good answer, but I have to wait til Derrick gets back from his test so he can help me. Yes, I have difficulties uploading pictures. We all have our challenges. Fortunately, doing the 30 blog challenge is not one of mine! Ha! But I digress.

As far as introductions go...

I feel like there should be balloons or a celebration of some sort... Deanna is finally blogging! It's a miracle! (cue cheers from the crowd, applause sign...) I have so many things to be grateful for and I want to share them! And, okay, I want a cute blog like Chrissie's (love you girl!). :)
So first things first. I'm a family girl all the way. Those of you following this should know this about me. But, if you don't, I'm going to give you a little taste of what it's like to have the best siblings in the world. I was feeling big-sisterly the other day so I sent acrostics to my three youngest siblings (sorry Dev, I thought you'd think it was uber cheesy... am I right?) To my surprise, they all sent me one back! This is what they sent:
From Caiden: Determined, Extraordinary, Amazing, Neat, Nice, Awesome.
From Sierra: Diva, Exciting, Amiable, Non-stop smiling, "Nana", (down right) amazing.
From Samantha: Devoted wife, daughter and sister; Excellent in everything he does; Amazing listener with just as amazing advice; Never loses sight of what's really important; Notes, preferably sticky notes; A big sister that had made an impact on her siblings so big she has no idea.
Seriously, how lucky am I to be blessed with such awesome siblings? Um, SERIOUSLY blessed.
>So, as far as introductions go, I hope this is a decent start to blogging because I plan on doing more. A lot more. <3
