(instagram picture, sorry!)

 Good times people! Why? No, I didn't win the lottery. But! After 10 plus years of being sleep deprived, I think I FINALLY figured what I need to do I can get a great night sleep! Ever since I was little I've had trouble sleeping so the fact that I actually have felt RESTED is pretty amazing! ( I know, big whoop.)


Okay, I'm done for now. I finally had a good volleyball practice, yay!

Friday Failures

I'm serious, It seems like all forces in nature are against me when it comes to Happy Friday. Thursday we decided to head to the city and do some touristy things - but that meant me being gone on Friday....of course. Someday maybe, I'll conquer the Fridays. Until then, I'll just eat my grilled cheeses and drink juice boxes and pretend I'm five years old.

See ya on the monkey bars!

I'll share more pictures soon...xoxo

Happy Friday //

When I saw this picture, I knew I had to use it. I generally try to use photos I take, but lately I have not been taking really any pictures. I just kind of adore this picture. Mainly because there are flowers and the flowers are pink. Genius.

Okay, I think I'm done now. I've only been lounging all day and I'm still in my pj's. It's shaping up to be a pretty awesome Friday.

XOXO, Kryn

Happy {Fri} Day!

When it comes to these posts, I never really know what to say. Should I tell you about my week in detail? Or do I let my midget list speak for itself. Would you like to know how many grilled cheeses I ate or how many days I didn't get out of my pajamas?

You tell me.

Until then, I'll tell you that you should be proud of me because I didn't use a shot of a.) my feet) and b.) clouds. They really are my downfall, but they do photograph nicely.

And did you know that saving for a camera totally stinks? It means missing out on the coolest of jeans. And well, a lot of things. But I suppose it's worth it.


How has your week been?

Xoxo, Kryn

Happy {Fri} Day 7/13

Wow. I am totally repeating a photo from yesterday and totally hoping you don't notice and totally ruining that chance by pointing it out. But hey! I've never claimed to be the brightest. I think the biggest awesome thing about the week was my Photoshop messings. We've had it for over a year, and to be honest, I didn't even know how to save a photo. I did a little digging, a whole lot of moaning and finally figured out what I wanted! I'll show you Sunday. (It's really not that exciting, but I've been wanting to do it for a while.)

 Oh, and I got to be a Starbucks girl today. Similar to this time, but it involved getting a drink, waiting for it, AND having your name written on the cup. I was totally impressed. I am also impressed by people who can curl their tongues and wear belts over cardigans and look good. And I say totally way to much.

How has YOUR week been going?

Xoxo, Kryn

Happy {Fri} Day 7/6

I've posted every day for a WHOLE WEEK! Let's hear the applause! Just kidding, it's been totally fun. Let's hope I can keep this up. I think the main AWESOME thing this week was that I followed my schedule a ton more and got my posts ready for my other blog, that helped a lot!

Also, I finally got the "You might also like" thingy added to my blog! Yippee!  You are excited too right? Okay good. Now you can go read more nonsense!

Tomorrow we have our second swim meat. I'm thrilled. Or not. I'm rather terrified. The races, they are not SO bad. But when you sit around for 30 minutes you get really, really, REALLY nervous.

Or at least I do.

Which then makes me have to go the bathroom 50 million trillion times.

I live a rough life.

What good things happened to YOU this week?

Xoxo, Kryn

PS: I did meat without thinking, again. For not eating meat all that often, I sure do have it on my brain all the time.

Happy {Fri} Day 6/29

I can't really think of anything to say at the moment. It's still pretty early ad my brain hasn't had time to wake up. It's really early. Oh wait, it's 9:45.

 It you waited 3 more minutes I could probably blab more than you'd like to hear. But we'll just keep things quiet with HAPPY FRIDAY! Okay, I have been TOTALLY slacking on these and I'm really sorry. Friday's just always seem to be the busiest day for us. Which is not true at all. I think I'm just especially lazy on Friday. Or every day.

I've been wanting to do them on this no picture form, and now I can! HUZZAH! I also use way to many comma's when typing.

I think I'm waking up - run for your life! 

Happy {fri}Day! 6/8

 Finally! I'm back with the goodies of the week. This week KJ grew up, flew by himself (didn't get lost) and went to be cool somewhere else. And locked the keys in the truck. Other than that, nothing spectacular happened to the rest of  us in tropical suburbia. I learned I can't do a push up, was actually grateful for thunder and made the worlds most awesome muffins.

The parents are calling...xoxo

Happy {Fri}Day/Week

First of all, My brain is still in place and I do happen to know its Sunday, not Friday. But anyway, lets pretend its Friday until you finish reading this post? Deal. Thanks.

This week has been the most interesting week in a long long while. Emily and I rocked it on our speech and got 1st place and District winner! (we killed the imaginary competition - yes we were the only ones in our division, but we still won!) And our family met someone from Timbuktu! I thought Timbuktu only existed in fairy tales and hypothetical's. Boy was I wrong (Do I sound like a mad scientist or what?) . I also got to impress the former owner of Graco with my fine grammar. Well, I thought it was impressive. He didn't really. He kind of raised one eyebrow and smiled nicely like "And you said you were HOW old?" I bet he was plotting how he could convince my parents I needed to ride in a car seat again. Not happening.

In short, we've had an exciting week.  I ate a neon taco and we got a new fridge which I am constantly sharing the glories of. It's, like, actually cold! Oh the wonders of refrigeration. (I meant to say like there okay? I don't usually mean to the other 9 million times.)

Well, now that I'm all finished blabbing Sunday can resume. I think I'll go wrap Sophie in a dish towel. Sometimes, it just needs to be done. XOXO, Kryn

Happy {Fri} Day: 5/11

Happy Friday Everyone! This week has flown by (which one hasn't?) But I am honestly looking forward to the weekend for once. But Mothers day is scaring me a lot. My mom is not someone who dreams of all the stuff she could have (like someone we could mention...) so I'm always kind of stumped as to what to get her. But this year I have a good idea and I can't find the key piece to the project. And I only have 3 days to do what I don't really know how to do. This will be interesting.

This picture PERFECTLY describes the kind of weather we've been having.The days are absolutely gorgeous with full sun, puffy clouds and a breeze. It makes me want to forget my plans of moving and stay here forever.

What are you loving this week? I'll try to post more next week. I'm playing it by ear, as usual! xoxo, Kryn

Happy {Fri} Day: 5/4

Yikes! Its already Friday. I pretty much forgot it was Friday until 20 seconds ago. We did a bunch of things this week, and huzzah, I actually posted a fair amount and (huzzah again!) I enjoyed it! You can hold the applause though, but I know you are secretly cheering. I might post about my Chicago Dog, It was pretty funny.

How's your week been? Feel free to comment your happy things. I'm off to prepare for the first swim of the season, woot!xoxo...Kryn

PS: Star Wars Day celebration soon. If I was punny, I'd call you a padawan. But I'm trying to be normal. You understand don't you young padawan?

Happy {Fri} Day:: 4/27

Yay, I'm back with my Happy {Fri} Day! Maybe I'm the only one cheering, but who cares. I am so excited for this weekend because I actually get to relax! Now, nothing really was stopping me from relaxing before, except for myself. I was so worried about homework, but now I have none at all. Are you getting the feeling that I'm really thrilled?

I really want to get myself back into celebrating, so I'm making it a goal to celebrate the first 16 days of May. My favorite memories from last summer are all the celebrating, I intend to relive it as best I can.

Happy Weekend! What things are you looking forward to this weekend? XOXO, Kryn

Happy {Fri}Day:: 4/13

 

This week I've been studying up for testing. I'm actually kind of excited. I was always the "I wanna go to school" homeschooler, mostly because I wanted to have a locker and ride a bus. (and the tissues. Of course.)  So testing is sort of my  yearly little schoolish adventure. And in case you were wondering, I do get giddy when riding buses. It's the deprived homechooler in me.

And one last thing is that I hate this time of year! Everything is ending the same week, and I'm going to have absolutely nothing to do. On second thought, it sounds kind of amazing. I think I could get used to being a lazy person. And by saying that I totally mean I'm not.... I think Ray Comfort would call me a liar. Happy Friday! What things made your week great?
 

Happy {Fri}Day:: 4/6

Hi lovelies!
I don't know why, but today seems like the perfect Friday. I think it's because I am wearing a dress, had my most favorite muffins eva, and the big brother has friends here which means I can use my household famous spying skills. I finally got my room clean, lots of homework is finished and I am making progress on my map world torture map.

I'm am dreaming of summer big time! Do you have any big summer plans? I'm doing swim team, maybe volleyball camp and hopefully babysitting, bowling and lots and lots of Popsicle eating. When you have orange cream Popsicles, you know it's summer. I've also decided that I need to build arm muscles because at the moment, I have zero. I can't even pretend to do a push up. A girl one. I know I'm way to young to use the "I'm old " excuse, but I'm going to either a.) get some muscle or b.) find good excuses. I think A will work better in the long run, but it will be tough. (And I reserve the right to take back everything I've said about building arm muscles. I'm kind of lazy, sheesh.)

March:: A review

March was a fairly good month, no? Excuse me for typing in a French Accent, but I think so.
 1.) I planted some pretties.
 2.) Achieving goals and messing around with washi tape.
3.) Fave Fragrances for fabulous Fragrance Festivities (Okay, 6 F's, I'm just awesome.)
4. New blog series, Happy{Fri} Day.


I also got a concussion, but that's no biggie. Thank you for letting me share this month with you. See you next month! XOXO, Kryn

Happy {Fri}Day :: 3/30

My school Faux-cation is almost over and to be honest it's heartbreaking. But I know Summer is right around the corner and I am giddy. Doesn't summer just seem bright and happy? I think so, and I intend to make this summer a great one. Do you have any summer plans? Xoxo, Kryn

PS: That is my milk carton. It's so cute right? I picked those bright colors because I am in full Summer mode. Lime green and orange are summers official colors. Or so I've just decided.

Happy {fri}Day (3/23/12)

 

Sorry, Its blurry. And I'll explain my mini concussion later. 

Happy {fri}Day!

Welcome to Happy {fri}Day! Eventually we'll loose the marks cause I know that if I keep this up for more than a week I'll be sick of typing them, but at the moment, we are going real fancy.

So here's the deal behind Happy {fri}Day. It's no secret that Friday is my least favorite day of the week. I don't like the thought of the weekend being so close. So I decided I needed a little something to brighten my Fridays, and I thought I might drag you all along as well. If you've ever seen blogs have something called Friday Favorites - this is my take on it. List of little things that I like, things that make me happy and generally love life.  I made it happy {fri}day because my blog title is about happiness- Thus the ever creative title. Did you know I named my blog after a book of stamps? Random fact. But I though you should know.

Normally I won't give you all that fluff, but I just wanted to introduce it to you and tell you about it so you are not so totally lost. I have a special gift of completely confusing people. I try not to be generous with it, but sometimes I can't help it. Okay, I'll stop Talking now and get on with it.
