Thought on the Day. (Brain Dump)

Hey guys! So lately I have been having some trouble sleeping and figured I would blog to kind of dump the day. So today was a fairly good day! Even though it rained all day! I skipped my first class because of road conditions and then went in at 12 to donate some stuff to Goodwill. I have been going through all of my old stuff and getting rid of things that I don't need or that don't fit me or my style anymore. So its awesome to do good! Then I went ahead and jetted over to my second class and sat through that. It was boring but necessary if I want to get that degree! Its about Research. Which in some aspects is very interesting but in other aspects is not at all. So then I drove home and typed up a paper I had to do, which was interesting. Then I cooked dinner and ate and watched Kung Fu Panda with momma! Which really made me want to work out. And that brings me to my question of the night. Why if we are people that are motivated and strive for success in education or career are we not having that same motivation to work out and better ourselves? Am I the only one? Well now it is time to brush my teeth and sign off! Be sure and check out my youtube channel where I currently am uploading 1 time an week! See you guys next blog! -L

So I went out and bought tons of organic and amazing foods! I will do a video on what I picked up and I will start doing some cooking videos! If you have any recipes that use almond milk or  avocado then please comment below! That's all for now lovelies! I will see you cats on flip flop laterrrrrr! :)

So as you can see time is a little crunched right now! But I wanted to begin blogging again so here I am! Until next post my dears! -L.

Part 18.

Hey guys! Here is part 18! Enjoy and thanks for reading! I've decided that one day I'm going to make a book out of all these, but it'll be a while, I have a lot left to write!

“Oh my...” Lindsi’s mother said as she grabbed Lindsi’s ringed hand. “ Isn’t it beautiful!?” Lindsi squealed. “Yes... Mom… He told me he loved me..” Lindsi said. Lindsi’s mother looked up. “HE DID?” “YES!” Lindsi said happily. “Oh my goodness!” “I know... I just am in awe. It amazes me.” “I know it does sweetheart.” Lindsi’s mother said happily.

 The next morning Lindsi’s woke to the sound of her phone ringing on her bedside table. She answered it sleepily. “Helllo?” She said stretching under her warm covers. “I love hearing you when you just wake up.” Trevors voice said over the phone. “I wish I could say the same about waking up to answer you.” Lindsi said rolling over. “Awe baby, I’m sorry. Now get up and look out your window.” “Ughhhhh. Trevor. You better not be here I swear I look like crap. At least give me some time to get ready.” Trevor laughed. “I’m not there baby, just look for me. And for the record I’m sure you look great.” “I’m only getting out of this bed because I love you.” Lindsi said. “I love you too now go.” Lindsi walked to her window and pulled back the curtain. The ground had at least 5 inches of snow on it and it was still coming down. “It’s snowing!” Lindsi said excitedly. “Yes baby. Now you can go back to bed if you want.” Trevor said. “ARE YOU CRAZY?! I’m heading outside pronto!” Lindsi said scrambling for clothes. Trevor laughed. “I was hoping you’d say that. I’m on my way.” “Did you-“ Lindis started. “Yes, I talked to your mom this mornig and she said it was cool, and my parents are staying inside because they can’t do anything outside with this much snow on the ground.” “Awesome! BE VERY CAREFUL! I’ll see you when you get here I love you!” Lindsi said. “I love you too baby, and I’m going like 30 miles an hour. No worries. Don’t use up all the snow on the ground so there isn’t any for when I get there!” Trevor said excitedly. “Oh I don’t think we will have to worry about that.” Lindsi said. “Okay baby I’ll see you in a while. Oh, by the way, you sure did change your tune quickly once you realized it was snowing, and I was coming to see you.” Trevor said jokingly. Lindsi laughed. “Shut up, I love you, byeee!” Lindsi then hung up the phone, finished getting dressed, and headed outside. Once outside she went and got her dog Maya so she could experience her first snow. Maya didn’t really know what to think of it. It was cold, wet, and white. She licked at it and the dug in it, then ran and tried to eat the falling snowflakes. She was a hoot. About 45 minutes later, after Maya was all tired out, and put back in her pen, Lindsi heard Trevor pull into the driveway.  Lindsi scooped up some snow and made a snowball. She then snuck around and out the gate, and chunked the snowball and Trevor’s back. As the snowball hit him he turned around smiling. “This. Means. War. Come here you!” Trevor said running after Lindsi. Lindsi ran back to the backyard, and Trevor followed. Lindsi hurriedly picked up more snow and chunked it at him, hitting him in the chest. Trevor then picked up snow and threw it hitting Lindsi in the butt. “Hey!” Lindsi said stopping and turning around. Trevor caught her, and wrapped his arms around her. “I knew that would get you to stop, so I could catch you.” Trevor said out of breath. “Dang you.” Lindsi said hugging him close. “I caught you, so therefore I win. So where’s my prize?” Trevor said as he raised his eyebrows. “Right here.” Lindsi said as she neared to kiss him, but right before she did she dumped a handful of snow down the back Trevor’s shirt. “OHHHH! COLD!” Trevor said dancing around to get the snow out of his shirt. Lindsi doubled over laughing. Trevor took that moment to stop dancing and scoop her up over his shoulder. “Trevor put me down!” Lindsi said as she flailed her legs and arms. “Ha! And risk you dumping snow down my shirt again? In your dreams baby.” Trevor carried Lindsi around the yard and she continued to laugh and protest. Finally he moved her to where he was holding her back with one arm and his other was under her knees.  “Are you ready to play nice and fair?” Trevor said as he looked at Lindsi’s flushed pink cheeks. “I suppose so.” Lindsi huffed. “I can always carry you around some more like a sack of potatoes.” Trevor said. “NO! I’ll be nice!” Lindsi pleaded. “Okay. Promise?” Trevor asked. “I promise.” Lindsi said and she wrapped her arms around Trevor’s neck. “Good. Now where were we before you dumped frozen water down my back?” Lindsi smiled. “Right. Here.” She then kissed Trevor’s cold mouth. “Perfect” Trevor whispered. “I couldn’t agree more.” Lindsi whispered back.

 

 

Part 17.

Here is my latest edition to my love story. Thanks for reading!!! :)

Lindsi couldn’t fight the tears that began to form in her eyes. Trevor knew she wasn’t sad though. She had the biggest smile on her face he had ever seen. “Trevor…” Lindsi said as she tried to control herself. Trevor took the ring out of the box for her. “Will you wear this ring Lindsi?” Trevor said starting to tear up himself. “Yes. Yes. Yes.” Lindsi repeated over and over as Trevor slipped the ring on her finger. When the ring was on Lindsi wrapped her arms around Trevor and Trevor wrapped his arms around Lindsi. They just looked at each other for a long time. Finally Lindsi spoke up. “Trevor, I love you too.” Trevor then began to cry again. “Baby! Stop! You’re going to ruin my makeup.” Lindsi said tearing up again. “I’m sorry baby. It just means so much to hear you say that. You are the only girl I’ve ever said that to.” That stopped Lindsi dead. He had never told any other girl that he had dated that he loved them? Wow. “Really?” Lindsi asked. “Really. I’ve never really felt the connection with them that I do with you. It took a lot of guts to say that.” “I can only imagine, honey.” Lindsi said as she snuggled into his jacket. “So do you like your ring?” “I absolutely love it, and you.” Lindsi said smiling and wiping a stray tear away from the corner of Trevor’s eye. He then reached up and took Lindsi’s hand and kissed the tips of her fingers and kissed the ring. Lindsi beamed. “I love that smile. I love everything about you.” Trevor said as he kissed Lindsi. This kiss was different, it was like they both had nothing to hold back any longer. Their feelings were free. And they loved it.  “You know I was worried you weren’t going to like the ring, or me telling you I loved you.” Trevor said as the kiss ended. “Why?” Lindsi said shocked. “I’ve wanted to tell you since our dancing date. I was afraid it was too soon.” “No. Don’t think that. It was perfect timing.” “Trevor smiled and held Lindsi’s hand. “Do you want to go for a walk?” “Sure! That would be great. I’ll just tell mom.” Lindsi said as she yelled through the door at her mother that they were going on a walk. After her mother OKed it, the two started out around the block. They were handing in hand and about half way through there walk when Lindsi felt something cold hit her hand. “Did you feel that she said as she looked at Trevor. “Yea...” Trevor said quizzically. Then before their very eyes, it began to snow. What a perfect Christmas this turned out to be. It might have been Christmas time, but Lindsi had spring time feelings in the middle of December.

“Oh! Snow!” Lindsi said as the flakes began to fall liberally. Trevor let go of Lindsi’s hand and caught some flakes in his hand. “You think it’ll stick?” Trevor asked. “I hope so I’ve got an itch for a snowball fight.” Lindsi said eyeing Trevor mischievously. “Do you now?” Trevor said advancing in Lindsi’s direction. “Mhm.” Lindsi said backing away. “I’ll have you know I’m a hunter.. so I’m a master at aim.” Trevor said getting closer to Lindsi. “Whatever. I won’t believe it til I see it.” Lindsi said. “Challenge accepted.” Trevor said smugly. “I bet you can’t even catch me.” Lindsi said playfully. “Again. Challenge accepted.” Trevor said advancing toward Lindsi quicker. Lindsi began to run. “Ah! The thrill of the hunt!” Trevor said as he ran after her.  Lindsi was laughing so hard it was beginning to get hard to run. Trevor caught up with her and wrapped his arms around her from behind. “I caught you babe.” Trevor breathed into her neck. “I know...” Lindsi said exhausted. “Now I get to... EAT YOU!!!” Trevor said as he nibbled on Lindsi’s neck and ear. Lindsi melted into a fit of giggles. “Wait! If you eat me then who will you love?” Lindsi asked. “Oh I just wanted a taste.” Trevor said licking his lips. “I’ll give you something to taste.” Lindsi mumbled as she spun around and kissed him. After the kiss was over Trevor said “That tasted like sugar. Sweet. Just like you.” Lindsi laughed. “Thank you babe, I’m pretty sure my dad could learn from you.” “Oh does he use corny lines like that too?” Trevor asked as he wrapped his arms around Lindsi again. “Every chance he gets.” Lindsi said. Trevor laughed. “So does my dad. It’s hilarious.” “Stick around and I’m sure you’ll hear some of my dad’s.” Lindsi said as they rounded the last turn to her house. “Oh I plan to sweetheart.” Trevor said they returned to her driveway. “You better go before the roads get to bad!” Lindsi said worried. “Okay babe. I will. I’ll drive really careful too.” Trevor said as he unlocked his truck door. “Okay babe, I don’t know what I’d do if something where to happen to you!” Lindsi said snuggling into Trevor. “Ditto baby.” Trevor said lifting Lindsi’s chin and taking her hand. “Merry Christmas sweetheart. I love you.” Trevor said as he kissed Lindsi goodbye. “I love you too baby. I love you too.” Lindsi said as the kiss ended. “I’ll text you when I get home.” Trevor said as he hugged Lindsi before he climbed into his truck. “Please be careful babe.” Lindsi said as he buckled in. “I swear babygirl.” Lindsi pressed her hand to the cold truck door and smiled. Trevor smiled and started his truck. Lindsi backed away and waved as he carefully backed out of her drive. She stood in the street until he was out of sight. It was then that she screamed and jumped up and down and looked at her ring. Then hurriedly went in to show her mother.
