Ten Things

May 14, 2012 in Art,baby,family,Music

 

1. I have twin boys.

2. I have rekindled my love for the band U2 from listening to this song.

3. My house is utterly disastrous. Needing a cleaning fairy.

4. When my house is a mess, I feel that I have enormous amounts of really bad feelings that will burst out of me at any given moment.

5. Been painting some lovely works of art today.

6. People making fun of other people is like #1…numero uno…biggest big daddy pet peve of all time. Like, makes me want to cry and lose all control. If you make fun of people, please don’t let me hear it.

7. Enamored with this Cuban artist Daniel got to meet while in Cuba. His paintings are no joke crazy amazing.

8. I want to live somewhere where people need Jesus everywhere you turn. And I want to tell them. And feed them. And give them clothes and hugs and kisses.

9. I have been obsessed with cupcakes lately.

10. I have a love/hate relationship with twitter.

 

Hope ya’ll have an awesome week!!!! Tell me something fun you are doing this week or weekend…or something weird….or something crazy….Please!!

Love to You!!!
