Me in a nutshell...

This blog can be sort of a time capsule...at least I'm going to act like it is. So this post is strictly so I can look back in a few years and see what I'm into at this particular time. I wish I started doing this when I started the blog...but anyway...better late than never!

I'm currently reading "Lady In Waiting" and it's an excellent book! The earlier a woman reads this book in her life, the better! I'm half-way through and it's so insightful!

I'm really lovin quite a few albums right now but I won't mention them all...At the top of the list is Mariah Carey "Memoirs of An Imperfect Angel". I've always loved MC and I was obsessed with her as a kid...almost to the point of her music being a guilty pleasure. I know every word to almost every song she has (If I don't know it, I haven't heard it). Most artists start to slip as time goes on but because she has kept up with what's current and is collaborating with who's current, her latest album is the best (to me anyway). No surprise that I love every single song. They're other female artists who probably make better music but I don't connect and feel they're music like MC's music. Other albums include...Trey Songz "Ready", MJB "Growing Pains" (yeah it's 2007), A. Keys "The Element of Freedom", and Robin Thicke "Sex Therapy". Oh and I can't forget to mention Maxwell's latest album...I've pretty much wore that out!! Not really feelin Rap or Hip-hop right now...(guess I'm getting old).

My favorite thing to eat right now is grits lol...I've never been a grit eater throughout my life but I am lovin me some grits! Not the microwave ones but the real stove-top made ones...with cheese, butter, salt and pepper. I have to have some kind of chicken or fish with it though...I can't just have a meal of grits. And my favorite drink has been the same for a while...Arizona Green Tea w/ honey and ginseng (LOVE it!!) I'm also drinking coffee every morning (except weekends).

My favorite spot is still the beach and I'm anxious for it to get warmer!

My fave restaurant (at the moment) is Dave's Oyster Bar...yum!

I'm going to Destin Assembly Church...It's a 15 minute drive without traffic but well worth the gas. I know the commute time will double or triple once the vacationers come but hey, good churches are scarce these days.

My favorite shows have been the same for a long time..."House Hunters" on HGTV I watch almost everyday...Suze Orman Show...Everybody Hates Chris has somehow became like my fave of all (I didn't even like it my 1st couple of times watching it). There's nothing that I watch faithfully (TV is not that good anymore). TLC and Discovery I watch mostly and I sometimes get caught up watching Sportscenter or PTI. I'm burnt out on reality shows...but I do like Teen Mom.

My current wish list contains... a Movado watch (not practical but I still want one) and some Maui Jim sunglasses (would be a great investment now that I live in the Sunshine State) *note* since I never splurge on myself...I doubt I will have these items when I read this again lol

I still love massage therapy (even though it takes a lot of time, energy, and money to maintain licensing, certification, and CE's...ugh!)

I think that's about all I want to record in my blog time capsule right now...til next time!
