Welcome to my blog! You might be thinking, "365 Lemontinis? Is this a drinking game blog?" Nah. Just my upgraded concept of making lemonade when life hands you lemons. (Let's face it Lemontinis are much more exciting than plain ol' lemonade! And only if you are of age mind, I don't endorse underage drinking!!) I hope this will be a fun, creative outlet for me and that anyone reading it gets a kick out of it too. My "Maiden" post was on New Years Eve 2011 and it explains my motivation for this blog (in rather great detail, sorry.) I'll be writing one post a day for the duration of 2012, squeezing the deliciousness out of life even when it's tough.

Thanks for reading!

15,768,000+ minutes

Cannot believe I'm thirty. It doesn't feel like it, I feel pretty much the same as I did yesterday and the day before, etc. But the more I think about it the more reality weighs down. 30 years ago today, at this moment, up in the Minnesota snow, I was merely hours old. I imagine what it might have been like that day for everyone in my life. I think of my grandmother who was blessed with her forth grandchild on her birthday. Then little bits and pieces of my life since have been flashing in front of my face today....not in that freaky, life passing before your eyes thing like I'm dying, but just in a sentimental way. 30 years. Whew. I haven't cried and I don't plan on it but it is VERY surreal to think I'm 30 and think of all those memories from being a kid, a pre-teen, a teen and all those twenty something days up to now. 


It has thus far been a regular day. I know I should have spent it lounging around being lazy but I just have been too stir crazy to not do anything. So I've done laundry and some organizing and I gave myself a pedi. My husband gave me some marching orders that I am to pack an overnight bag for both my daughter and myself and that he will be coming home at 345 to take her to my parents house. Then he will be back for me at 445, at which time I'm supposed to be "party ready." I'm getting nervous just thinking about it, and very excited to see what he has planned for tonight that we won't be coming back home.


So I'm posting now, and I've got my blog on my BexBerry so I can post again later with an update (if I get a chance).


Later!
