Day 31 - Anticipation.

There is absolutely nothing more annoying then sitting by a fire at 9 at night waiting for your school to be called off the night before what is being called a blizzard.

Day 30 - Magic.

There's nothing like it.

Day 29 - Crayon Numero Dos

Today I took the next step in the crayon making process. The boys loved it and this is the final product.

Day 28 - Stuck

Am I the only one who feels that every breath I take that I am happy, is a miracle?
These days a smile can feel so close to a blessing, I often wonder if it truly is.

I feel stuck. The past keeps holding me back. I need to let go of it all, but for some reason I can't seem to figure out how. The past 6 years have formed me into the person that I am today.

Looking back, I think that who I was when I was 12 would be proud of the person that that I have become, by far not proud of all of the decisions I have made, but proud of the over all person.

I can't quite seem to figure out how to take the leap from child to adult but it is something that I only have awhile to figure out. Come graduation (107 days!) my life will drastically change.

Now, to enjoy those 107...

Day 27 - Sushi

It was a first and quite possibly a last. I had never tried sushi so I took a chance and while it is not the worst thing in the world, it will never be something I actually want to eat.

Day 26 - Thin Mints

These boxes should last me ohhh, a week? I'm totally addicted to these things.

Day 25 - Necessities

I've learned that the only way to make it through this semester without letting senioritis get the best of me is colorful pens. Lot's of colorful pens.

Day 24 - Yum

I love stuffed peppers. The end.

Day 23 - Upside Down

It was just one of those days when nothing at all made sense. Discombobulated doesn't even begin to explain my mood.

Day 22 - Crayons

Today I got bored, so I made some crayons to see if it could be a possible babysitting activity in the future. These seem more fun then just your ordinary crayons and the clean up was amazingly easy. It has potential.

Excuse the pic quality, my phone was the only camera option I had at that moment.

Day 21 - Lonely

Alternate Title: The day that I couldn't convince myself to use any other picture even thought this picture is several months old, not taken today.


I never thought I'd miss her so much. It's been over a month since I've seen my Rozzie. I must admit it's weird not chasing her down and listening to that sweet little laugh. I miss her hugs and her little kisses.
I miss her crazy personality that was uniquely her own.
I miss her tiny hands holding on to my arm.
I miss her hair and how crazy it would be after a nap.
I miss rocking her to sleep.
I miss that little girl.


I love you Rozzie! I hope you're having fun in Salina. Emmie misses you!

Day 20 - Hello, Sunshine

There's nothing quite like the sun peaking through on a snowday. After the past few day's its a nice reminder of everything I have going right in my life.

Day 19 - Snow Storm

It's only just begun...

Day 18 - I am Loved

It started out as one single button. The traditional, red one. Once it was discvered that there was a special button for each month and buttons in all different languages it bacame a collection, and now they fill a vase.

Day 17 - Harold

So as to why Harold is named Harold is a very long story but this stuffed puppy is very good listener during the conversations that you need to have but know that no one else will understand.

Day 16 - Make-Up

I love the days that my make-up bag goes to good use.

Day 15 - Birthday!

I've waited 18 long years for this day. I can have 3 pictures. :)

Day 14 - Childhood Left

I think the picture says enough.

Day 13 - Heater

This little machine is one of the best inventions ever. I love it and it has saved me from many freezing cold nights.

Day 12 - Strep

2nd trip to the doctor this year and I get to go back next week for blood work. This week the diagnosis was strep and since I hate big pills and my throat is swollen I got the bubble gum medicine that I used to love.

Day 11 - Sick/Snowman

So today I made a pretty pathetic snowman. It was so small that it could only be considered a baby. lol

Day 10 - Snowday!

I love snowdays! Today I learned how to make a korker bow, Drank a ton of hot chocolate, and played around on photoshop. The day is only half over, what to do next? hmmm...

Day 9 - Innocence

There is just something about baby fingers that makes me miss being innocent.

Day 8 - Creativity

Today, I made some bows. Perfect on a cold day.

Day 7 - Yearbook

It's tradition in yearbook class for there to be cupcakes every month to celebrate birthdays. Happy Early Birthday, Emily!

Day 6 - Relax

I really need to learn to do this.

Day 5 - Bow

It was just a bow type of day.

Day 4 - Shots

Happy Last Day of Winter break, Emily! or not...

Day 3 - Commitment

He's been gone for 15 years, yet there has never been a year that there hasn't been a poinsettia from him sitting between their pictures around Christmas time. Her love and commitment to him amazes me.

Day 2 - Found

If was lost, and today I found it in the most unlikely of places.
A toy bin in the church nursery.

Day 1 - Starting

I've always drawn in by photo journals. Getting a small glance of each day of another humans life has always interested me. My life seems boring to me while other's are fascinating so today is the day that I start my 365 journal so that I can document that fascinating aspects of my every day life that I always seem to miss.

Enjoy, this shall be an interesting year.

It started with a book.
