Good Morning!
Hi partners! Here is how I start my mornings :)
This may sound strange, but I really have no idea what time I get up in the mornings. I mean, I kind of have a vague idea but I never look at the clock so I'm never really sure...
If it is a weekday, I probably get up around 6 or 6:15, but the alarm clock is next to my husband, and I forget what time he has it set for. We work in at the same place, so we get up at the same time and go in together. My hours are flexible, but he needs to be there at 7:00, which means I get there at 7:00 too (although I admit it's usually 7:15). Anyways, I think the first alarm goes off at 5:45. He usually hits the snooze at least once, and I start to sort of wake up. Then he gets up and takes his shower, and when he's done he wakes me all the way up. He's started doing this by picking up the cat and putting her on the bed, where she walks over and puts her face in my face. I have to admit, it's kind of fun seeing something so cute first thing in the morning. Then I usually lay around in bed for a few minutes while my husband goes to shave. Then I get up and go to the bathroom to brush my teeth, brush my hair, take a shower, etc... I have no particular order for these things, which is kind of weird! Then after that I get dressed, pack our lunch, feed the cat, and we go to work.
On the weekend we don't set the alarm. Yay! Of course we have a little kitty cat "alarm" that is used to getting fed at 6:45, so she's meowing at the door by 7:15 or so. One of us will get up and feed her and then usually get back in bed. I usually sleep until around 8, but sometimes I sleep later. Then I usually lounge around in bed for an hour or two. I don't really have a schedule on weekends, so sometimes I end up in my PJs practically all day! However, if I get up and start working on things right after I wake up on the weekends, I'm always amazed at how much I end up getting done!
So that's generally how I get my day started. I guess it's pretty easy to see that I'm not a morning person!
I hope you enjoyed, and please remember to rate ;)

I'm nosy email question swap
Hi Partners! Here are my answers for the "I'm nosy - email question swap". I hope you enjoy reading my answers, and please remember to rate!!
Jenny (JBolech)
1) what's your middle name? Ann - no E!
2) have you ever traveled outside your country? I've traveled to Mexico, Belgium, Antigua, Barbados, Dominica, St. Kitts, St. Thomas, St. Lucia, although I guess technically St. Thomas is part of the US
3) what's your favorite song this week? I've never really been able to pick a favorite song, even for a week! My tastes are just too varied I guess...
4) if you could change your name, what would you change it to? When I was younger I always wished I could change my name. There were just too many Jenny's my age! Now though, I can't think of anything I'd like to change my name to. My 3rd grade dream name was Crystal though ;)
5) ever have a broken bone? Nope, never!
6) what celebrity would you like to play poker with? Ahh! I hate poker! My answer is no one!
7) have you ever felt an earthquake? Nope.
8) ever see a tornado? My mom claims that once when I was little we saw a few tornadoes off in the distance and I was really scared, but I don't remember that at all. I do remember seeing a huge water spout at the beach some years later (still a long time ago). I remember not really knowing what it was, and being horribly inconvenienced because we had to leave the beach early, and waiting in the car while my mom went to buy us popsicles. Kudos to her for staying calm about it, because I had no idea that anything was wrong! I don't think it ever made landfall though.
9) did you ever find waldo?
Haha. Sure! We had all the waldo books. We also had a few weird Christmas versions like "Find Santa" and "Where are the 12 days of Christmas"
10) what time is it now?
8:52 AM
11) if you could be on a game show, which one?
Wheel of Fortune! I love Wheel of Fortune!!

No way. I find outer space slightly terrifying. It's just so vast and empty...
13) some pet peeves.
People lying about things that are so insignificant that why would you even bother making a lie up about it, waiting around on people, using the wrong there/their/they're or your/you're (although I'm sure I've done that one when I'm in a hurry...)
14) some things you like about summer.
Campus being empty (I work at a university library, so even though I'm still here in the summer, it's nice when the students aren't!), going to the beach
15) some things you dislike about summer.
It's too hot! Having to water the lawn (I'm pretty sure it hasn't rained all summer). Sunburns.

26) some favorite songs.
I have such a hard time picking favorite songs. A lot of the reason is probably because I don't know any song titles...
27) some songs you dislike.
Hallelujah - Waaaay too overdone. Never give any versions of this a thumbs up on Pandora, even if you like it, because then your Pandora station will turn into the Hallelujah station.

nope.
47) have you ever skipped school?

Yes! It was actually pretty recently. I grabbed the wrong set of car keys off of the night stand, and didn't realize it till I was already outside. I realized I'd forgotten my wallet (otherwise I would have been able to unlock it with a credit card - the lock isn't that good...) Lucky for me, my husband was down the street working on a recording job, although he had to come to me since I couldn't drive there with the keys I grabbed - I don't know why we even have that set of car keys because it will NOT start the car, even though it's supposed to be our spare set...

Photo Swap Series #2- Show Me Your Workspace
Hi Partners! I snapped a few photos of my always thrilling (ha ha...) workspace this morning. Let me tell you a little about them:
I work in the Baylor University Library. This is my desk. It's supposed to be one of those fancy desks that's good for ergonomics (or something like that). I still slouch though... You can just see my Christmas pillow sticking out from underneath my sweater on the back of my chair. It's almost going to be in season again!
Here's my computer and my cutie pie niece! On my desk (with all the yellow post its) is the very last bit of a major project I've been working on for the last few months. Yay! Almost done!!
And here's the big pile of paperwork that has been neglected while I was working on said major project (and there's another even bigger pile that I didn't take a photo of...)
Here's the front of my desk. I made myself a bunch of cute fabric flowers to look at, and I've got some of my wedding pictures, a candy dish, a shell from the beach, a care bear, and some little sea creatures. You may notice the cocktail umbrella sticking out of my flowers. My boss gives us a little umbrella every year at the beginning of spring break, since we don't actually get any days off. I'm up to 3 umbrellas!
I have a half wall right behind my desk, but the only things on it that are actually mine are the 3 picture frames. Everything else belongs to the guy who sits behind me (you can sort of see his desk in the middle of the photo). He has tons of toys and do-dads all over the place, including all over "my" half wall! OK, so I guess it isn't really my wall, and I am never facing it anyways so I don't really mind what's on it. And every once and a while a new toy shows up, so that's fun. Plus, he's one of the nicest guys I've ever met though, so I don't mind sharing a wall :)
That's it for my workspace! I hope you enjoyed my story!
Please remember to rate :)

I work in the Baylor University Library. This is my desk. It's supposed to be one of those fancy desks that's good for ergonomics (or something like that). I still slouch though...
