Confessions of a Bumbling Blogger...

 Confession: I am really, really, really, really {okay, I know, enough with the "reallys" already!} looking forward to this weekend. Why? Well, as I mentioned in an earlier post, this weekend is the Christian Heritage Conference. Not only will there be tons of amazing sessions to go to, a huge choral that my sister and I are currently working on four {rather difficult} songs for, and the Botkin family as featured speakesr...but..we are at long last going to meet FOR THE FIRST TIME our pen-pals of two years, and some of our bestest friends..the H. ladies (go visit their amazing blog!!), who will also be attending. Is that exciting or what?! Okay, I know, not really a "confession," as I've already told them hundreds of times how excited I am, but..*squeee!!!*

..Yeah. You get the picture. :)

Confession: I have a sore throat. :P Now, this is a "confession" because I am finally owning up to this sad fact. It is painful. Not so painful that I am unable to go to the conference {wild horses couldn't keep me away!! ..Like wild horses could do anything. I don't even live near any wild horses.}, but..dreadfully uncomfortable and..blech. Would you pray for me and my throat, friends? Okay, that sounds a little weird, but trust me: both myself and my throat need it. :) Because, the choral needs me! Without my boisterous vocals shrilling to the tree tops, the choir will wither away to nothing...

Hehe. Just kidding. More they will wither away if they hear me with this frog in my throat..:P

Confession: I have never been good at this "confession" stuff. I tend to ramble. Bear with me. Or politely exit the page.

Confession: We have the smallest TV in the entire world. No, I'm not complaining--we never watch TV. I personally dislike it, and do not feel a need. Few movies, as it is..I like them, but you only have so much time in a day, you know? But, think of a couch pillow from one of your sofas, and you have our TV. Yup, good ol' 1990 Sony Sharp..weighs a ton, has an enormous backside, and sports four channels. Gotta love home school families, right? ;)

Confession: I have recently become obsessed with spring skirts.  I haven't been wearing my dark colored ones lately, nor the jean one. Nope, it's floral, cotton-y, calf-length time. :) What aisle do you think I make a bee-line to every time we visit Goodwill? Usually it's only to look, though, as I am striving to save my money.

Confession: ..Which brings me to my next paragraph. I hate spending money. Is that a good thing? I hope so. I am also a spoiled thrifter. I am hopelessly romantically attached to low prices, and most of the time you will not catch me paying over eight dollars for a pair of jeans, over six for skirts, or over seven for blouses. It's just the way I roll. Now, if it's something I am really in need of (like a dress for a wedding, a new pair of shoes, a gift for a friend, or a purse), I may allow myself to just take a small peek at the "50% off" sale rack at a regular store. :)

Confession: I have recently fallen in love with this song, even though it's a few years old. It is so adorable..just listen to it, and imagine a guy singing to his wife...

You Make Me Smile

By Uncle Cracker

You're better than the best

I'm lucky just to linger in your light

Cooler than the flip side of my pillow, that's right...

..Awwwe! I just think it's the cutest song ever. <3 It's so bouncy and catchy and and little..but at the same time, tender and romantic. *sigh* :)

Confession: I am running out of confessions..no, actually, not really. It's just that I noticed this post is getting long, my audience is fading, and I have a paper to finish.

..So I'll leave you with the song and a *hug* from me to you.  I will be absent (guess why? ;) from this blog starting tomorrow, until May 1st. When I return, it'll be time to announce the winners of the "Spring Fling" {Giveaways}!! *throws confetti*

May the Lord bless you all!
