I had to share this beautiful picture of the blooming roses and filtered sunlight taken yesterday afternoon in my city oasis. I’m never going to want to move from here but I need more space, will cross that bridge when I get to it:-(
Grown & Sexy Happy Meal Toy?
Quick Rant: I had myself a cheeseburger happy meal tonight from Mickey-Ds (I so wish In-N-Out would head East), since I’m a girl I decided to go for the girl toy and boy was I disgusted. I thought these toys were for kids and yeah maybe some tweens get a happy meal or even a …

I know that many people donate blood and think it’s their civic duty to do so, but for me I thought donating was very strange even if it is lifesaving.
