horseback riding?

As you all know I am randomly interested in different activities/topics. Lately I've been entertaining the idea of horseback riding. More than likely nothing will come of this, at least for the foreseeable future. It would be really cool to learn though. But maybe I'll put it on my bucket list.

side note:
bucket list: A list of things to do before you die. Comes from the term "kicked the bucket". (thanks urbandictionary.com)

Maybe I'll begin by creating my bucket list. Yep, now I will randomly post things for my bucket list. Feel free to post things on your bucket list in the comments section, I would love to know :)

book(s) report

I've been reading/listening to quite a few books lately. I'm telling you, if you travel a lot for your job then audio books is definitely the way to go (if you're into books that is).

Here are some I've read lately:

Everything She Thought She Wanted by Elizabeth Buchan
This one is pretty good. It follows the lives of two women stuck in very different times in their lives. One is a woman in her 40s living in the 1950s. She is basically having a mid life crisis and is tempted by an affair with a younger man. The other woman is in her early 30s living in 2003ish. She's established in her career and her husband is urging her to have a baby. Entertaining. I give it a 2 out of 5.

Bright Lights, Big A** by Jen Lancaster
Freakin hilarious! I adore Jen Lancaster, she makes me laugh so hard! She writes the things that most of us are thinking but just too scared to say out loud. If she were Southern then she would be absolutely perfect (sorry Jen). 5 out of 5, definitely!

The Senator's Wife by Sue Miller
Interesting. Definitely interesting. I did like it, didn't love it but I did like it. I give it about 2 out of 5.

foxy blunt

While stalking The Pioneer Woman I found this presh site: Foxy Blunt.

Stationary for those with a sassy sense of humor.

My fave: Get well soon...you're a mess.

serrv.org

While reading various articles on relevantmagazine.com I came across this article that was very interesting. Then after reading that article my interest was peaked and I searched serrv.org. What a great website!

Now I'm not trying to be a saint or a world crusader (although that would be really cool) but when I learn something interesting I do like to share. I think that free trade is an awesome thing and I often forget about it or it is compartmentalized to a little area in my brain. I just feel that as a Christian and a fellow citizen of the world I'm called to let others know what I've learned. So check it out, I hope you enjoy!

happy Easter ya'll!

I stumbled across this site while facebook stalking and I have to say its pretty blunt, direct and the dead on truth (just the way I like it). Check it out:
